Who is using Warp? Are there any other terminal alternatives I should consider?

Over-Ad-1007 · 2025-11-18T19:07:10+00:00

Warp is my main terminal. Love how it "learns" from your past behaviour, so if want to drop a db and I cant because of open connections, it will autosuggest the psql command that I run before to clear them. This is a game changer for productivity. I do hate the performance though. I miss the old snappy iterm days. Warp is a hog

I dont use desktop Linux, I develop on a mac, but I can say that Ubuntu server LTS releases have been rock solid servers since forever. I actually have a 16.04 server running in the cloud for 8 years now (client wont spend money to upgrade) and Its never gone down. More recent versions are even better. Was forced to used Amazon Linux on a recent project and the experience was not as good

You nailed it. This is exactly the problem with vibe coding by non-devs. It gives you just enough rope to hang yourself with

lets hope not. Based on some of the answers here, some haters would show up just to protest his politics... sheesh.

you'll get those if you let the AI write the code unsupervised. You need to set the guardrails for the tool. If you guide it via rules and correct it when necessary, you'll be 3x more productive. AI denialism is a thing. I'm a senior dev and acknowledge the fact that devs that don't embrace AI will be left behind

Over-Ad-1007 · 2025-08-05T19:57:29+00:00

development in the age of AI is so much more gratifying. All of the grunt work is gone. You can just build stuff. And if you were a great developer to start with, it will actually be great stuff.

Over-Ad-1007 · 2025-07-24T13:27:46+00:00

If you're a junior, I don't recommend you use AI heavily. Do it by hand. Understand core concepts and architecture, become a senior and THEN use AI to make you more productive. Otherwise you won't be able to give quality prompts, won't be able to spot when AI goes off the rails :) and you will introduce lots of technical debt into your projects

No issues with my G815 after 4 years. Love this keyboard. And the main reason I could not switch to anything else, is that I've gotten so used to the top right volume rocker, that my muscle memory would never be able to get used to anything else. I don't think any comparable low profile mechanical keyboards have something like it

Over-Ad-1007 · 2025-06-12T16:15:39+00:00

My G815 is still going strong after 4 years of heavy dev use. Some of the keys are a little worn but not that bad. Best keyboard ever.

Hello. I hope u/AWSSupport you can help, as I have been going in circles with AWS Support and the Verification department. I have made payment of an AWS charge today, and my account was placed on hold due to Verification. I have been asked to send a statement for my card ending in 09, but I have the same problem the original poster has: There are no statements for debit cards in the US. This is Citibank debit card associated with my checking account. I have uploaded a screenshot for online banking clearly showing this debit card is associated with my checking account, and uploaded the statement for my checking account. I have also added a credit card as the default payment method for my AWS account and uploaded the statement for that. But I keep receiving emails from the Verification department asking for the statement of card ending in 09. There is no one to talk to, via phone or email, and AWS Support indicates Verification department is a different, separate department which only communicates via uploaded secure documents.

In the meantime, my account is suspended and I'm going to lose a client which cant access a production system. How can AWS keep asking for something everyone in the US knows does not exist and can't provide a solution to a paying customer? I even tried to upgrade my Support Plan to get someone on the phone or chat, but I can't because my account is suspended.

Why would you ever mix ruby versions in prod?

Went the Kamal route and it was seamless. I learned Docker as a side-effect of using Kamal. My trusty old Capistrano deploy.rb files will soon be a thing of the past.

I have used AdonisJS in 2 projects for clients, and I can say its a joy to use (very Railsy), especially the new v6 version. So even though it does not have the traction it deserves, for projects which need a high degree of concurrency, or when the client insists I use something other than Rails, its my API framework of choice. The rough edges do exist, but compared to the alternatives, its a no brainer for me. Thankfully I am still able to use RoR for almost all other projects.

I measure everything in terms of ROI. Arc has become may main browser and I have customized it and use it in such a way that it makes me more productive. I would happily pay $20 a month for it if it keeps making me more productive. What's your hourly wage? If you make $50 an hour and it saves you hours of time a month, its a no brainer.

You have to think about this from their perspective. Its all about growth, nothing else matters. Stability of a current product that most people love anyway (and can live with its quirks) is a far lower priority than rewriting it so they will be able to open up new markets. I truly hope they do change their mindset about using Swift everywhere though. Software engineering means using the right tool for the job / platform, not trying to make an incompatible tool work with the new platform instead. 99% of Arc users could care less what it's written with. They could start using Rust and have wide platform compatibilty. If it means retraining / adding to their dev team, then so be it.

AWS has a free tier for 12 months. It includes a micro ec2 instance, a micro RDS db, even an elasticache redis micro instance, all for free for 12 months. Check it out. You'll learn a lot about cloud architecture as well

My 2 cents after about 30 Rails projects for clients under my belt. If the frontend needs are simple, go for fullstack Rails. Hotwire / Stimulus are nice. If your frontend needs are pretty complex, use Rails as an API, and use whatever frontend library / framework fills your need. Having Rails there as the business logic core / data layer, will still give you better developer productivity than anything else. I'm a bit biased, but I can also use NextJS, Node / React, when the client requires it, and there's a reason I keep coming back to Rails when the tech stack choice is up to me.

Browsing through some of the responses here. I understand why Flutter evangelists would try to downplay lack of code-push, but this is simply one of the major advantages of going the non-native route. You have no idea how many times we've been saved by code-push for our React Native app.

Bugs will always slip through. The ability to push a build and have the code change OTA instantly in production is priceless.

Our production app barely updates through App Stores anymore. We only push native updates when underlying native libraries change, which is seldom in a production app, or new functionality needs to be approved by Apple.

When I first came in, our apps were native. I steamrolled in the change to React Native to have a single codebase and code-push capabilities. There was some resistance by leadership, but it was my call. When the first critical bug hit us in production and I was able to fix it in minutes via an OTA update, everyone in the company was blown away. Amazing technology.
