<p>In this episode, we&#8217;re talking about the history of &#8220;man&#8221; pages, console apps, team leadership, and Artificial Intelligence liability. Also, Allen&#8217;s downloading the internet, Outlaw has fallen in love with the sound of a morrvair, and Joe says TUI like two hundred times as if it were a real word.</p>

<li>DevFest Florida is a community-run one-day conference aimed to bring technologists, developers, students, tech companies, and speakers together in one location to learn, discuss and experiment with technology. (<a href="https://devfestflorida.org/">devfestfl.org</a>)</li>
</ul>



<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What are (were?) man pages?</h1>



<ul>
<li>&#8220;man&#8221; is a command-line &#8220;pager&#8221; similar to &#8220;more&#8221; or &#8220;less&#8221; that was designed specifically to display documentation &#8211; ahem, &#8220;manuals&#8221;</li>



<li>&#8220;man&#8221; pages would show you documentation for many apps in a (mostly) consistent manner that was available offline</li>



<li>Do people still use them?</li>



<li>People would print these out in the 70&#8217;s and beyond!</li>



<li>How do you create a man page? (<a href="https://allthings.how/how-to-create-a-linux-man-page/">allthings.how</a>)</li>



<li>Uses an old markup language named &#8220;roff&#8221;</li>



<li>Install to the proper location, typically /usr/man/man: (<a href="https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Man-Page/q2.html">tldp.org</a>)</li>
</ul>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Lead a Team (Anti-Patterns edition)</h2>



<p>Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time (<a href="https://amzn.to/3pSEWS9">amazon</a>)</p>



<ul>
<li>Hire Pushovers</li>



<li>Ignore Low Performers</li>



<li>Ignore Human Issues</li>



<li>Be Everyone&#8217;s Friend</li>



<li>Compromise the Hiring Bar</li>



<li>Treat Your Team Like Children</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Terminal UIs</h2>



<ul>
<li>A new frontier in programming? </li>



<li>The Good:
<ul>
<li>Keep your hands on the keyboard!</li>



<li>Easily install on remote servers</li>



<li>Often built by devs for devs</li>



<li>Low overhead</li>



<li>Purpose-built for their purposes (as opposed to IDE extensions)</li>



<li>Looks ancient</li>
</ul>
</li>



<li>The Bad:
<ul>
<li>Looks ancient</li>



<li>Scriptability</li>



<li>Each has it&#8217;s own learning curve</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Examples:</h2>



<ul>
<li>K9s (<a href="https://github.com/derailed/k9s">github</a>) </li>



<li>Lazygit (<a href="https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit">github</a>)</li>



<li>Lazydocker (<a href="https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazydocker">github</a>)</li>



<li>Spotify TUI:(<a href="https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui">github</a>)</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Meta AI</h2>



<ul>
<li>Meta has been making serious strides in AI with LLAMA and&#8230;it&#8217;s open source! Does that make them any more or less liable for the information? Does &#8220;publically available information&#8221; change things</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Resources we like</h2>



<ul>
<li>Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time (<a href="https://amzn.to/3pSEWS9">amazon</a>)</li>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tip of the Week</h2>



<ul>
<li>Want to learn something new while also making your life easier? Why not try writing a TUI!? Here&#8217;s an article that will kindly introduce you to terminal user interfaces, libraries like &#8220;Clap&#8221;, &#8220;TUI&#8221;, and &#8220;Crossterm&#8221; that people are using to write them, and…you can get some XP with Rust while you&#8217;re at it! (<a href="https://blog.logrocket.com/rust-and-tui-building-a-command-line-interface-in-rust/">blog.logrocket.com</a>)</li>



<li>Are you looking to upgrade your Kubernetes cluster? Check for API problems first!</li>



<li>Are you a browser tab fiend? Did you know you can reload all your tabs simultaneously with a simple shortcut? (<a href="https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/chromium-discuss/c/852SwetAs-A/m/SPC_W4PiDwAJ#">groups.google.com</a>)</li>



<li>No more nasty wiring jobs, get yourself to the hardware store website and pick up some wire and splicing connectors. Keep things nice, tidy, and organized. (<a href="https://www.wago.com/us/discover-wire-and-splicing-connectors/221">wago.com</a>)
<ul>
<li>Similar but not as good (no lever) (<a href="https://www.homedepot.com/p/IDEAL-33-Orange-In-Sure-3-Port-Connectors-100-Pack-30-1033P/202894310">homedepot.com</a>)</li>
</ul>
</li>



<li>Matt’s Off-road recovery channel is amazing if you&#8217;re into cars or&#8230; beautiful-sounding things.</li>



<li>Are you tired of manually correlating logs and events? No more! Check out the Open Telemetry project for your distributed tracing and analytics needs! (<a href="https://opentelemetry.io/">opentelemetry.io</a>)</li>
