What a remarkable coincidence. I was just looking at alternative terminals today and saw warp.<p>I like what they are doing. And like copilot (which I'm not a fan of, but I understand the goal maybe), I think it is leaning toward the real issue - we waste energy solving the same problems over and over.<p>Instead of helpers which enable us to reinvent wheels, we should be directing our efforts toward establishing a collection of pattern solutions and tools to compose those solutions into bigger ones which solve specific needs.<p>In the terminal, there are certainly a limited set of things we do repeatedly. In fact, much of what we do in the terminal can be done elsewhere (UI); it's just slower or more tedious due to clicking. It's also less easy to automate. But the intentions behind the actions are the same. "Create a new directory <here> name <name> and execute this <script>". Perhaps the biggest challenge is just in naming and organizing.
Interesting discussion in the other recent thread about Warp:<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33628205" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33628205</a>
