Here’s a quick look at my most frequently run commands from my Zsh history:</p> <pre><code class="language-sh">$: history | awk '{$1=&quot;&quot;; print $0}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr 647 gs 135 rc # rails console 135 ls 134 gd ... </code></pre> <p>Do you use the Ruby console much while developing? I personally like to check my code directly in the console — calling methods to inspect return values — especially in the early development stage before tests are written. Sometimes, I need to drop records from the database or build some structs on the fly.</p>
