Coding Train Live #151: 2018 Workflow (VSC, iTerm, zsh, etc.)

[slapusillydawg]

Hey Dan, just wanted to say that I got into programming around 2 years ago after graduating with a non-CS degree and feeling disillusioned by my job prospects. Your videos were some of the biggest influencing factors in keeping me motivated and energetic in pursuing software development without any guaranteed payoff and no one to keep me in line. As of last month, I now work as a SWE at Google. Thank you so much, I'm forever grateful!!

i'd recommend reducing your vscode font size and using the ctrl-+/-/num0 key shortcuts to zoom the whole environment (including menus and side panels). also, you really should just use the terminal integrated into vscode. it's so much quicker to just ctrl-` to toggle the window, also you can ctrl-click on filenames in the terminal to open them in vscode.

Programming sorting algorithms is something that really could benefit from unit testing … I wish this channel would advocate better programming practices.

Why are you using chrome ?if there is no special reason, why don't you use Firefox ? Caz its open source and community based browser.

2. you'll probably find easier to use iTerm with VSCode (Cmd + Tab), because switching between the integrated terminal and editor is kinda chaotic
3. you could also try setting up 2 profiles in iTerm (for you to use and on stream (different colors or bigger font size))
4. asked for password just for setting a default shell :D
5. it changed the shell just for user :D
7. watch your $PATH, it's funky by default, sbin (admin programs) are not included i think, long time has passed since i had to fix it :D
8. source can screw it up sometimes, especially if it loads something two times
9. there is also git and nvm plugin for oh-my-zsh

Hello,
I think I fixed the problem with your version of the partition function. Also in my computer the rendering works like you want it.

I wish I had that much energy :/ I want to do a lot of things but lack the energy...
