First, there was the terminal.
DOS You typed text. Scrolling text came back. It was:
  • Powerful
  • Flexible for power users
  • Easy to program
But also, since it was centered around a blank input field, it was:
  • Daunting
  • Unintuitive
  • Bad for selecting and manipulating stuff
Fortunately, in the intervening decades our user interfaces got much better. We got graphical interfaces. We got direct manipulation, visual navigation, and rich thoughtful user experiences. It was great!

You realize you're a nerd when: your most used "app" is the terminal window and you feel that the real improvement in the past 40 years is having 4-8 terminals per virtual desktop with at least 4 desktops dedicated to running terminals. "It's such an improvement from alt-function terminal selection."

Maybe it’s a power user thing, but I prefer to directly take my own actions instead of hoping I’ve asked an LLM the right question to get it to do exactly what I want
