I would add another important tool: "tmate" a quick easy and secrure connection to other computers for example if you working remote and help another coworker tmate will open a tmux session with ssh connections with a temporary password (with and without write permission) that you can connnect and use the terminal when you close the terminal the session will end and until then you can comfortably work together
In my head, age replicates gpg, but as a CLI tool, I can't see any benefit of using that over gpg. Aside from being written in Go, what makes this better than gnugpg, which is already well supported, documented, and used? A new tool would need to either add missing functionality, or so something in way that is far superior to existing well known tools.
@@acmethunder Most of these modern alternatives are just simpler to use that’s all. The flag system and ability to be used by anyone is its selling point IMO
Thanks for the tips! It feels like you are reaching novices as well as professionals, and given that it might be a good idea to present the standard, built in utility as well for these things. gpg, ssh, curl and scp do almost 100% of what you showed without having to install anything on most unix systems right?
@@Xaito I view it through the lens of friction: I’m already SSHed in, ssh/scp is annoying if you don’t have the keys/user/port/other config presets, so instead of messing with it, you fire up portal. Other use case is sending over data to someone else
As usual great content, love your work. I have in the past played around with NixOS, but the darwin implementation seems to be an incredible way to handle MacOS configuration. Feels like linux but with all the creature comforts of MacOS, might actually do a full switch.
Saying, you can't live without these is a bit harsh, but the Tools are cool regardless. I'll be adding age, atac and the public-apis repo to my tool belt for sure. A question about age. Does it allow for adding the password inside the command? I'd love to use it in combination with the 'password-store's 'pass'-command, but I don't know how to make the password input fully automatic.
Nothing! But rsync can be either too simplistic (which is why there's tooling built around it like pv-migrate for k8s), or, too specific for when you want to be able to move things around with ease without messing about with security and access. Also, many users find simple interfaces like age easier to use.
Modern terminal apps suffer from a typical GUI problem, they have too much of an interface. Classical apps, like vi or emacs, top, mutt, pine, irssi, whatever, have hardly anything more than a status line and a command line. The amount of pseudographics in modern apps is comparable with the visual space for information.

we are in the age of running tuis for absolutely everything , nice video !
Just wanted to say that this channel is great. The videos are well structured and with a lot of useful information.
nice bro, this scratches my CLI itch perfectly. i hope to see more
Second
Jokes aside, I love your videos. I did your Obsidian course and it significantly changed my workflow. Thank you for everything that you do!
Where can I find that Obsidian course ?
ATAC and termshark look awesome. Sshs - I have a shell function where I use awk then pipe to FZF.
@@arisweedler4703 totally doable, but I love having an installable thingy like that available at all times!

@@mintcar you’re 100% correct and that’s great feedback! I’ll try keeping it in mind for future videos
I must be missing something here, but if you already made a SSH session in order to use portal, why not just SCP in the first place?

A question about age.
Does it allow for adding the password inside the command?

@portal: what's wrong with rsync?

Are there CLI utilities for Apple apps like notes, reminders, mail etc?
@@pravinkumarone I don’t think so, not officially at least as these require a lot of fiddling with apple scripts which isn’t funny to say the least
You might want to pronounce "age" a bit differently in that context. From the age website: The author pronounces it [aɡe̞] with a hard g, like GIF
I think using GIF as an example of usage of g is a bad idea lol.
@@sujatahmed7600 a bit controversial for sure 😃
@@gaetanlehmann2824 totally missed that 😳
