alt Hacker NewsHow do you view HTML/Code/JSONs in other applications?
I have an instance of Postman open on my work laptop, and the useful area of the output constitutes maybe 20% of the screen.
Do you just scroll around endlessly every 2 seconds? Or do you have amazing eyesight and use tiny fonts?

Use more information dense editors. I work in tmux and nano.

Cmd+Tab skills! But mainly, its a matter of only ever doing one thing at a time and optimizing for that in lots of little ways.
This "rule" is especially useful now that I'm coding primarily through agents. Secret weapon number 2, while everybody else is getting burned out running ten agents at once and producing slop, while I'm now writing more (and better) code than ever.

Not GP, but I'll be forever thankful to have been able to make my career focused on embedded software.
In my line of work there's nothing to view because there's no visual component at all. If my user(s) "see" the results of my work, then it means I've catastrophically fucked up.
I spend 90% of my time working in vim within XTerm.
The closest I get to UI/UX is a UART debugging interface.
