Nice explanation. Wouldn’t mind reading more.
vharish··on Ask HN: What are your favorite developer-efficiency tips?
Kinda presumptive. From what I read, this is for windows. The OP clearly is using a *nix system.

Why not try vimum or similar for Firefox?

If you are using vim, you should definitely try using cvim or similar for chrome. You’ll most probably stop using mouse when in browser.

If it’s about tools, I would suggest trying out i3 and emacs. I’ve used vim+tmux for a couple of years. Slowly I’ve migrated to Emacs. Somehow, I like it a little more than vim. I still heavily use tmux.

For tmux, having a startup script with pre configured windows and panes can be helpful as well.

Having a dual monitor setup can also be very productive.

I personally try to avoid using mouse. Most of my hacks are targeted to achieve this.

vharish··on Ask HN: How do you manage self-study?

vharish··on ThinkPad T480 is my new main laptop which runs FreeBSD
Have you worked on external monitors with this setup? The last time I've tried, it had been a pain. The monitors were detected fine, but the scaling was completely off.

Haha.. this is now taking an interesting turn.
vharish··on From Mac to Linux – the setup I've grown to love
This, I completely agree with. Moving away from a tiling WM is pain that it's actually very demotivating.
