Let's talk IDEs

Right. I have ssh keys set up so I can get into each of the servers as my account, but there's a single account we use to run most of our hadoop processes, etc. So after logging in, I need to do sudo -u username -s or something like that.

It's not that it takes a lot of time or anything. It'd just be super nice to be able to attach tmux and have all of the sessions already connected.

Right now I'm doing something like this:

Code Select Expand

function tmux-sr() {
  tmux send-keys "lockfile -r 100 $SSH_LOCK \
    && ssh -t $ENTRY_SERVER sudo -K \
    && ssh -t $ENTRY_SERVER \"echo \$(vpn_password) | sudo -u $ENTRY_USER -S -i uptime\" \
    && rm -f $SSH_LOCK \
    && nocorrect ssh -t $ENTRY_SERVER sudo -u $ENTRY_USER -i $*" C-m
}

vpn_password is an alias that extracts my password from the keychain.

This works well enough, but I feel like there has to be a better way.

This seemed promising but I haven't tried it myself. Yet!

Also of productive note, totally not about IDEs but related to vim so it's noteworthy: vimium has also increased my productivity, I pretty much only have to use the mouse to navigate webmail* or do mouseovers. Or control Pandora. Thankfully it's a radio and takes care of itself most of the time.

Right. I'm already doing something like that to set up the pane layouts. The trouble is, some of the panes require that I enter my password in order to complete setup. I'm wondering if there's a reasonably elegant way to do that. What I have now works, but it's a piece of shit mess.

yeah. vimium is pretty cool.

what do you mean webmail*? do you not use gmail? the gmail keyboard shortcuts are pretty great.

edit: lol, i just remembered where you work.

I can't stand Eclipse.  Sure it's free, but it has one of the most horrible menu systems out of all IDEs I've ever used... and the way it saves/ stores projects and workspaces makes team development a pain sometimes.  I'll take IntelliJ over Eclipse any day of the week.  JetBrains ranks probably #1 in my book in terms of a company that makes outstanding dev tools/ IDEs.

I agree that Visual Studio is goddamn slow at times.  I've had to kill the devenv.exe countless times and expect to do so countless more.
