Eclipse isn't a particularly good user of Cocoa, is it?
It does something completely its own (and horrible/slow) on Windows (possibly one of the 6534 equally awful Java UI packages), so I can't imagine it does anything better with iOS.

Couldn't agree more.. People who say Electron (on which VSCode is running) is bloated and is slow probably haven't worked on full fledged IDEs using Java.. they consume memory in Gigabytes, are slower, at least appear to be slower, despite using native UI and takes a lot longer to open.
How often do you open your IDE though? I switched form VSCode to PHPStorm half a year ago, and while it feels a bit slower, the improvements are so unbelievable worth it for me. It does have a taste for memory, but then again, it easily saves me a lot of time each month, so just throwing RAM at it was a no-brainer for me.
I was relieved when I switched back to PyCharm.
Vscode is nice but still quite far away from some good IDEs.

Is that equivalent to `pbcopy` and `pbpaste` on OSX?
Those commands aren't exactly the same. These copy what you have selected. You can use xclip just like pbcopy/pbpaste though. Xclip has a few more features and you can get it on mac via brew and nix iirc.

- keeping all your configuration files (“dotfiles”: shell, git, etc) in one, version controlled place. Makes setting up new machines so much less stressful.

The thing that finally made this worthwhile for me is GNU stow.

Stow is available from homebrew if you prefer to get your Mac stuff that way.

Fascinating to see OpenID here. Where do you use it? I thought it was pretty much dead, so implemented IndieAuth recently which does what I want, replacing OpenID’s functionality.
Everything[0] by Voidtools as a Windows search replacement. It makes search practically instant. Now that Windows search often fails to turn up even my most used files (what happened to Windows search? Was it intentionally nerfed?), Everything has become a necessity for me.

Does anyone know of a good Mac version of this?
The Z command line utility has saved me a ton of time. It remembers the directories you’ve visited and lets you jump to them with just a few characters. Almost like Chrome’s autocomplete for recently-visited directories (if you’re used to being able to type “g” to go to gmail or “n” for “news.ycombinator.com”...). For instance I can run “z B” and it’ll jump to my ~/Business directory (and “z ss” would do the same). h…
1) Any terminal that you can summon/dismiss with a global hotkey. Examples are Guake for Linux and iTerm2 for OSX. I consider this a must-have for all developers. 2) Anything that lets you resize/place windows with hotkeys. For example, Divvy for OSX. Divvy is also nice because if you press the hotkey multiple times, it cycles the application through each of your monitors. No need to ever use your mouse to move/resiz…
> 3) Fuzzy file search in your editor I’ve been using “fzf” [1] for file and directory search and I can’t recommend it enough. It integrates nicely with vim [2] as well. 1. https://github.com/junegunn/fzf 2. https://youtu.be/qgG5Jhi_Els
