Hi Arjan, here is a cool tip for you. If you rename your "development" folder to "developer", and place it in user directory. The folder icon will changed to Xcode icon, even in sidebar!
yeah, everytime i see this sentiment online, I roll my eyes.. i'm like.. dude.. you are on a forum that you need to sign up for. in this case... it's youtube@@JohnWalz97
As RUclips's corrosive effect becomes less and less hidden, I hope it's comforting to know you are one of like three professionals still providing free content that is full of personality, very informative, is well produced and by and large is the inverse of brain rot
In love with your accent and teaching methodology. Always a treat. Just one request please make a series on software development for some one like me who cant afford the paid courses.😢
I am also about to buy one. Any experiences here on how fast you run into limits with 16GB memory (e.g. with docker usage)? I really love Macbook Airs for the light weight (I travel frequently), but the big downside is that you can't expand the memory. Curious to hear experiences about 16GB being plenty or if it still sometimes limits you.
Amphetamine and AltTab. The former to prevent standby, the latter have a more windows like alt+tab behaviour that allows me to cycle through all windows (including hidden ones). Is anyone using the new macOS stages properly? I tend not to work in full screen a lot - am I missing out?
Thanks fir the video Arjan, have you automated the setup of your mac with dotfiles or similar? It was annoying to remember how to install all those tools and go through MacOS settings without it. Also, would be great to hear how you set up your Python and the tools around it (like linters and formatters via pipx, VS Code settings) and so on.
What about the horrible slow docker performance when in emulation mode on mac, because the target arch is x64 (aka python needs different binaries for numpy etc.) Any tips?
I‘m using Docker Desktop on a M1 MacBook at work. As we still have a lot of developers on x64 our base images are also built for this platform. Switching on Rosetta2 support in the Docker Desktop settings solved our performance issues. Starting up and running local containers is really fast now. I think this setting is now active by default on Apple Silicon Macs.
You spelled Web Developer wrong lol. Why are so many web devs claiming they are software devs when they can't even build C code properly. Oh I made a tutorial on Rust / Go / Python. Good for you, while the actual software engineers are laughing at this dude.
If you seriously insist on persisting with this terrible OS, at least do the rest of the world a favour: - use ASDF instead of homebrew; homebrew doesn't pin versions. ASDF is better than nvm. ASDF does python, go, rust, node, blah blah blah. seriously just use it. - reformat your harddrive to be case sensisive; it's not be default and it causes so many issues with renaming files in git. - setup fzf for autocomplete. (it's so strange that you characterise the default terminal as not having autocomplete, are you a warp shill?)
No, just the cocky developers with young eyes. Their focusing muscles and lens haven't betrayed them yet. Simple optics: Overall dark screen => pupils dilate => reduced depth of field => eye muscles tighten for more precise focus => fatigue/eyestrain => blurry vision and headaches. Arjan only has a little bit of grey in his beard, so probably no presbyopia yet. Dark mode is evil. Just say no.

Having to create an account for Warp, and it being closed source is a big no-no
That was a problem for me too, but the functionality is great and I use it until any OpenSource version of similar functionality is available.
It's 2024 buddy. You need accounts everywhere to do any sort of real development, at least professionally 😂

oh whatever, so self righteous
Wave is a very similar project and it's open source

Thank you so much, happy to hear that!
Agree! But who are the other ones?
I’m also curious about this
Would love to see a deep dive on your BitWarden setup!
Oh, also Raycast is an amazing spotlight replacement that does a lot of cool things.
It does pretty much everything all the apps installed through homebrew do, but in my opinion better in most cases.
I second Raycast, it also covers currency conversions, clipboard history and a ton of plugins. Btw, our developer Mac setups are very much the same!
Would love deepdive bitwarden and notion videos
Hi Arjan, great video as always! I would be thrilled if you could explain the best practices for building automations with Notion.
I'm using Linux so I can't recommend any Mac software but you mentioned Warp and that's what I've been looking for a long time. Dank je wel!
Linux version in on the limited release via invite or sign up I believe. soon it should be available for linux.
@@noirdragon-10 Warp is already available for Linux, there is a deb and a rpm package. Sign up of course.
Please please please make a video on how you use the Notion API! Would be super super helpful!

Hidden bar saves my life🤪 thx!
Its the first time I'm actually the first to comment! Keep going sir, love your videos
Good job
Looking to get a mac for development, did you say you were using a macbook m1 air? I'm looking to use a m2 air with 16gb ram
I am also about to buy one. Any experiences here on how fast you run into limits with 16GB memory (e.g. with docker usage)?

iterm2 also has autocomplete. You use the tab key for that.

Oh yes!!! I love Warp!!!
Warp was a lifesaver. Appreciate the heads-up mate!
I'm happy the video was helpful!

Is it still worth buying m1 air in2024 for software dev .
Amazing, than you for all those tips Arjan!
It's my pleasure! Glad you liked the content.
I totally enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad! Thank you for the kind comment :)
Why do you use brew to install python ? Condo would be better to manage and install
if you want autocomplete, why dont just use zsh with plugins?
I really prefer orbstack over docker desktop. It is so much faster and lighter weight.

Hey, Arjan! 1:21 What tab-completion in a terminal app are you talking about? isn't that a feature of a shell, and not the terminal emulator?
zsh most likely
@@marcosbarranquero8289 zsh is a shell. So it's not a completion in the terminal app, right?
best mechanical keyboard ?
I really wish warp came out forlinux and windows as well!
It should be out for Linux now
intellisense should be part of the shell and not the terminal
Tilix is king
Phenomenal
Thank you!
I could not work with a single screen. Desktop with 3 screens is the best.
Hey @arjan can you help me with a project that I am running?
You spelled Web Developer wrong lol. Why are so many web devs claiming they are software devs when they can't even build C code properly. Oh I made a tutorial on Rust / Go / Python. Good for you, while the actual software engineers are laughing at this dude.
What’s your MacBook?
warp is now out for Linux. Hip hip hooray
Indeed!
@@ArjanCodes I meant
Turning off smart quotes .. who knew .. cheers, those are annoying as hell !!
I dont like Apple and i use Linux. I have many advantages than at Windows.

Legend has it that great developers always use dark mode as light attracts the bugs
