Productivity hacks

If I spend most of the time in front of the screen and keyboard (8h daily x 200 days x 60 years = 96 000 hours), I can learn some quick tips & tricks. Why not!

Keyboard

The goal is to use keyboard instead of touchpad as much as possible.

Keyboard shortcuts
Learn standard Visual Studio Code keyboard shortcuts, and use them everywhere possible, like in Obsidian.

• CMD+X — cut entire line.
• CMD+SHIFT+K - delete line.
• CMD+D - select current work.

Use dictation whenever possible instead of typing. It can save hundreds of hours in your lifetime, probably.
