    I have had a similar notion, around the same time, with tui's and strace in particular. Lots of experiments, never quite good enough to publish or try to popularize. Something I've found in the last few years though, and especially the last six months, is that the impulse to make a better tui has died for me. Claude et al are going to wield these tools via cli far better than I can via tui. The built in visualization is nice for sure in tui, an embodied perspective on how to investigate something, however Claude can make a custom one for me in the moment within a few minutes. My impulse is to throw Claude at the issue with the bare linux toolbox while I do other things, not hand craft better tools that I don't have much motivation to use right now.

      They (correctly IMO) seem to think that the hard thing in sourcing the top candidates by the sort of metric they care about, is getting them to even know about you as a potential employer. That means figuring out where those candidates might be and finding ways to get your name in front of their eyeballs.

      So, cool nerdy blog posts on HN, cool nerdy puzzles on Cracking the Cryptic, etc.

      Having been sorta involved in hiring in the same sorta market, I can respect how astute their approach is.
