AI: Back Where I Started
Overview
I spent over a decade building muscle memory in vim and tmux. Then AI-powered IDEs like Cursor showed productivity gains I couldn't ignore, so I made the switch despite the pain. A year later, I'm back in the terminal. Not because I gave up on AI, but because AI evolved. CLI-based agents like Claude Code changed everything. Now I work from anywhere via Tailscale and Termux, running multiple AI agents simultaneously without my machine crashing. The future of development wasn't in the IDE. It was in making the terminal powerful enough to compete.
