I agree 100% with you. I spend a lot of time moving around different machines, processes, configuration files, logs, etc. And I stopped maybe 10 years ago to use anything that is not available on a base system. I don’t use fancy shells, I don’t use aliases, I don’t write local shortcut scripts, etc. I just use regular bash, combine base utilities in one liners, and live with it. Maybe I loose 1s here and there when writing one liners compared to someone with a library of wrapper utilities. But that gives me an immense benefit: I am at home on any machine, any distribution, everywhere, without any configuration, with any user.

There's always something like Ansible (or even a lower-tech solution) to at least give you the basic toolset that helps you double or triple your performance.

Sure, in a quest of productivity, I should also use Vagrant and Packer to create docker images with a development environment so that I can run Serverless troubleshooting containers on all my machines. These scripts will surely help me triple the performance of my bash one liners. I’ve heard Eclipse has good shell completion and support for oh-my-zsh too.
