Productive Programmer Note 1

Concentrate on essence, not ceremony

Instead of searching via finder or windows explorer for a file, use the command line, and grep to find the file.

Instead of typing out a command from scratch that you use all the time, use an alias.

Instead of manually refactoring, let the IDE do it for you.

What I get from this, let the computer do the heavy lifting, so you can focus on the main parts, the essence.

Don't type the whole word out, when you can autocomplete.

Take advantage of the software and it's features.
