The color picker is my personal favorite. It'll convert between hex colors, RGB and HSB. Plus it shows the UIColor code for whatever color you're previewing.

I don't know about "hipster", but I genuinely feel sorry for "developers" that can't take a few hours to learn the basics of the terminal. I can't imagine having to use a GUI to do my development. (IDE, or SCM, or otherwise, even my documentation is all commandline via godoc)
I can use git from the terminal. And hate it with a passion. I personally can't imagine doing real development without the efficiency of a GUI to assist.
But I totally understand that other people have the opposite opinion, and respect that. Everyone's mind works in different ways. But just because you like the command line, doesn't mean other people can't find it more efficient to use a GUI.

I guess his dislike for Terminal means no mention of iTerm2, and as a knock-on that there's no mention of homebrew.
I would be sad on any OS w/o some kind of multiple clipboards, on OSX I am pretty happy with ClipMenu, though it doesn't seem to be getting developed much these days.

Allow me to point you to prezto https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto , which is a lightweight version of oh-my-zsh. I couldn't stand waiting 10+ seconds to open a new prompt...
Excellent, now I don't suppose you know of a stripped down Janus?

When you're picking out specific lines to commit, or selecting certain files out of a batch, or reading through a long diff, or doing any number of things that requires random access, GUI beats CLI by a long shot. Of course, GUI doesn't work so well when you need to do some of the more fiddly stuff. Which is why it's good to use both. :)

zsh + oh-my-zsh. Better than any GUI. But thus guy lost me when he said he "wasn't any good at the Terminal". And using Spotlight over Alfred? Launchpad? who uses Launchpad? Crazy.
