I do my fair share of poking around network infrastructure from time to time. While I do appreciate bind-utils and their wide reach, sometimes, I just want something a little… nicer. I love to swap out basic CLI utils with Golang and Rust versions, nice and easy to install. So here we are, replacing dig with doggo… and this util is a good boy for sure <3
Anyone who’s run into disk space issues I’m sure knows about NCDU. It’s a super handy util to see what and where is eating the most disk space on any Linux or Mac. However one big issue I’ve run into is that it’s fairly slow, even on a SSD.
I’ve used a lot of TUIs over the years, and have dealt with many different Git GUIs as well. TBH most are either big desktop affairs a-la SmartGit or are underwhelming TUIs that lack a user interface designed for Normal People™. I’ve been looking for years for something to fill the gap between CLI speed and GUI simplicity, so enter LazyGit.
I’ve tried quite a few file managers over the years, from Midnight Commander to GUI ones such as Caja and Thunar. I always seem to be coming back to good ol’ MC. That being said, I’ve seen to recommended by the nice folks over at TerminalTrove, so I took a look, especially due to the fact that it was written in GoLang, a big fav of mine.
