I just can't bring myself to spend hours mastering something like tmux, emacs, vim or the like (like learning a million keyboard shortcuts). I personally would rather spend those hours learning pretty much anything else; as in, I can't think of something more boring than learning a new text editor that's convoluted in the name of extreme productivity. It seems to me that it's not a huge win in productivity; like, it's not like it's something that's going to make me 10x more productive. I spend more time thinking about the problem than writing code, for non-trivial problems. And even when I write code, it seems that using emacs or this tmux setup wouldn't be a huge win. Even if that saved time adds up, a bunch of hours at the end of the year is not going to make a huge difference definitely not something that's going to fundamentally alter my career.
