I think this is actually a really profound statement. Many people seem to get caught up in trying to take the most efficient path when you could take a somewhat less efficient path that requires much less time. It can become a form of yak-shaving.

Now, don't get me wrong: there's absolutely a benefit in investing time to learn efficient methods. But life is also short, and you've gotta choose where you invest.

Life is longer than a lot of people seem to think. I put a lot of effort into configuring vim and bash... 20 years ago maybe? And now I barely think about it, but the changes I made have made me more efficient and effective throughout those 20 years. Go ahead and put some time into figuring out how you use a tool and make scripts or aliases for using them... if you invest in good tools you will get decades of use out of, instead of chasing dumb fads, you'll just keep compounding your efficiency.

It certainly helps that vim and bash, unlike some software, doesn't just go and change its config every few years!
