On: Ask HN: Old Unix technologies like cron and SSE in modern workflows?

[sejje]

cron jobs are great

tmux + vim > ide (for me)

ssh > rdp

git

terminal

This stuff is so old now, and largely does one thing and does it well. I prefer composing unix tools to writing my own scripts, when it's possible. When I do write my own scripts, often they need to be run from a cron job, soooooo...

<3 old tech

Tmux(2007) and Git(2005) are not so old, especially comparing to last Unix workstation which were released at a similar time :D

SSH - great tool, even Microsoft adopted it
