Because I know exactly what the CLI commands do, the work anywhere on anybody’s machine, and I don’t know what a GUI is actually going to execute

- sublinear 3y agoI completely agree with this. It's also way faster, more flexible, and scriptable. What's the point of getting used to a substitute that's a worse implementation of a restricted subset of the original? As soon as the mouse cursor or having to scan my eyes across the screen is involved in any way I'm being forced to waste more time looking at less information. The fatigue of using GUIs adds up tremendously in the course of a day. I suspect the people who prefer them aren't aware of this. There's likely a negative health correlation with GUIs (eye strain, back problems, etc).
