The "watch myself code" bit is genius. I used to do that and found it extremely helpful -- way more helpful than apps that just show you what percentage of your time you were in the text editor.

On Windows I used TimeSnapper Classic (free) and later used ffmpeg to convert the GBs of images to videos. Does anyone know a good way to do this on linux?

Making a new file per screenshot wastes tons of space, I think I might as well use ffmpeg for recording a screen vid directly at a low framerate (and maybe somehow add a time display?)



it helped me to understand that the tools that i was using sucked. I used to work with vim without asynchronous builds. Once upon a time that was good enough, but then they started to use dockerized builds that take ages. Now With asynchronous builds I am no longer blocked waiting for it to compile/link whatever.

as a result i brushed up my vim scripts and put them here: https://github.com/MoserMichael/myenv/blob/master/VIMENV.md
