I think I use only these five TUI applications: - zile (full emacs for one weird project) - aptitude - top - less - watch
TUI is a hack. I like terminal programs and CLI, but I like them to be input/output and the terminal to act as a spool, as intended. I use GUI emacs and use the mouse pretty often.

If that would ever fly, then it is an engineering miracle. But on the other hand there is a much larger thing: project/program management miracle.

i never really wrote code anyway. that was the caffeine. i'm not a good programmer, the caffeine is. and i can prove it: i never want to write code until after i take the caffeine. the more caffeine, the more code. so, can i quit caffeine now?

One of my quotes on the office wall of quotes is “Daily reports work just fine, but the numbers do not make any sense.” Of course it does not make sense when the report wants to measure something that does not even exist in the underlying business process.
Come on, man, do your thing and let us do our thing. The key role of programmers has always been to mediate between the literal machine and the very imprecise whims of business/product people. Vibecoded software isn't good because its authors do not have the perspective to decide and formulate what they want correctly, more so than because a clanker generated the code

In fact, the whole OSF/1 thing is kind of absurd. It might made some sense on Alpha if implemented differently (with significantly smaller microkernel than Mach), but Tru64 adds another layer of weird design decisions.
Mach set NeXT back but nobody is ready for that discussion.
