Midasxon FZF and RipGrep – Navigate with bash faster than ever before

Sorry, I should update the article with the better solution, it's just a few more lines:

That's strange. Maybe just change it to:

    export FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND="bfs -type d -nohidden"

(and install bfs of course)

It won't let you go back up the tree, but if you are clever you can use `cd -` to jump back to your previous location.

It isn't super clear in the article, but I now use bfs & fzf for replacing cd.

Lets you change directory with alt+c, although I have tweaked it so you always search from your root folder. Which isn't for everyone. Otherwise fzf alt+c doesn't let you go back up directories which gets frustrating.

Midasxon Reflection time: What is it, how do you measure it, and how can it be improved?

I was hoping there would already be a term for it, but I think reflection time works quite well when you think of it as the amount of time it takes to see changes reflected.

But reflection time on it's own sounds like a cringey post-stint review.
