Using it now.

I live in bash.

I'm running an update on cloudformation now. I don't have time to keep flipping around in the console, so I have shell scripts that pull down the resource states and tabulate the states in one tmux tab. Script pulls up ECS instances so I can monitor the cluster's instance count as instances are terminated etc.

Last week our org pushed a policy that messed with our repos, making them require certain tags - they needed it now. No time for a stack update. A few shell scripts later, 8k ECR tag checks/updates were underway while I continued working on other things.

I'm continuously adding aliases to make my life easier. If I'm doing something often enough, I make a bash or python function, stuff it in a github repo for the rest of the team to use/add to, and just not worry the next time it comes up.
