    @@scottmacchia I'm half way through "The Last Algorithms Course You'll Need" and I really enjoy it. I'm currently in the process of switching to QWERTY from my german layout and while I'm at it I'm also properly learning touch-typing instead of my freestyle technique. As I'm not yet at my regular typing speed this makes coding a lot less enjoyable but it helps me in my path of learning vim later this year with proper muscle memory.

    have you tried Rider with vimmode? I find it really good - you get the resharper experience + vim motions and blabla to trigger Rider functions. It's awesome. Plus, the vim mode has plugins :D including harpoon

    bruh your productivity will be less initially just because you will be sinking time into configuring everything when you have vscode that can do all you need with one click. Not saying vscode is better than having your own dotfiles setup with all tmux, zsh, nvim fully setup like a chad, but if you want to be productive sit on ur ass and write code does not matter where

    That’s definitely true. In fact, I don’t plan to use most of the tools mentioned in the course (ex: Ansible, Dvorak keyboard, dotfiles management). However, for the tools I have adopted, the hope is that time is saved in long run even though it will cost me some time now.

Ansible's is declarative, automated configuration of infrastruture. NixOS isn't going to build my Cisco switch, nor is it going to manage my company's red hat systems. Ansible isn't going to ensure, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that my system is exactly what is described in its scripts; just that what is declared there has been done.
