A lot can be done with just aliasing to the right tools:

alias df='duf'

alias ls='eza'

alias ll='eza -l'

alias cat='bat'

alias cap='bat -p'

alias man='tldr'

alias top='glances'

alias grep='rg'

alias ps='procs'

alias cd='z'

alias g='gitui'

alias gs='git st'

alias gp='git pull'

alias gu='git add . && git commit -m "Update" && git push'

alias check='shellcheck'

alias v='nvim'

alias len='wc -l'

alias uuid='uuidgen'

alias src='source ~/.zshrc'

Sublime has a place in my heart, it was my first editor as IDE when I started 15 years ago. Such a great piece of software, thanks for all the work!

Same boat right now, startup bankrupt, interviewing is just harassment and don’t know if I want to work in this dysfunctional domain anymore

Totally get what you mean, I’m old enough that I don’t swallow this shit anymore and fight back though which leads to no job for me, haha…

I do this for writing, whether it's a book, an article or a D&D campaign. For me it's not about speed at all, it's the natural way my mind works and if I try to do this linear, line by line, I face blockades soon in the process.

Absolute control freaks. No idea about your culture if you don't trust your applicants/employees...

In the process of establishing HTMX, Alpine, Tailwind at work since the 6 year old React SPA is impossible to upgrade.

I wouldn't recommend it either, it is a very simplistic view of coding with some bad advice intermingled. Obviously reality is much more complex than any book could describe and there is benefit to think about bad examples as well as good ones.

Though it is an ill-defined term clean (clear, readable, reasonable, understandable) code is important in the sense that accidental complexity should be minimized and encapsulated and necessary complexity should be understandable.

No additional framework, just a typed language with good standard library and raw SQL. For the frontend I would probably reach to HTMX.
