Pro-tip: You can create a pseudo-function in your BASH or ZSH environment - e.g., in your ~/.bashrc file, add this line:

shadow () { convert "$@" \( +clone -background black -shadow 80x20+0+15 \) +swap -background transparent -layers merge +repage "$@"; }

source ~/.bashrc

shadow "Screen Shot 2021-07-07 at 09.47.13.png"

⌘-K(or T) to open the channel switcher (I navigate channels solely with this shortcut and have my slack set to hide all channels without new messages)

⌘-F opens the search box. Can modify searches with from:@user and in:#channel for extra awesomeness

Up Arrow will edit you last message; perfect for when you hit Enter too early or mispell things

+:emoji: react to the last message. Have to be quick so nobody else replies before you react though or you'll react to the wrong message

/remind [someone usually myself] [to do something] [at this time in words] not really a shortcut but is great for not forgetting simple tasks

The channel switcher also supports fuzzy matching to some extent. If a channel is named foo-bar you can type fb to show it. It's doesn't work so well with multi-user-dm's though.

Sometimes I want to go back to the last page I viewed while still keeping the same one open. You can very easily achieve this with shortcuts

1. ⌘-L to focus the omnibox
2. ⌘-Enter to open the current URL in a new tab
3. ⌘-⇧-[ to go back to the original tab
4. ⌘-[ to go back to the previously viewed page in the original tab

Open term (or equivalent) and paste the following one-liner:

defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add '{tile-data={}; tile-type="spacer-tile";}'; killall Dock

When the Dock restarts, there should be a draggable blank space that you can move anywhere. Repeat to your heart's desire.

From term (or equivalent), copy and paste:

To change your public Host Name (i.e., jeff.oozou.com): sh sudo scutil --set HostName

To change your local Host Name (i.e., jeff.local): sh sudo scutil --set LocalHostName

To change your Finder Computer Name (i.e., Jeff's MBP): sh sudo scutil --set ComputerName

Finally, flush your DNS cache to force refresh: sh dscacheutil -flushcache

Build an application you can drag-and-drop videos onto to compress them significantely:

Make sure you have ffmpeg installed (brew install ffmpeg).

Create a new Apple Script app: AppleScript on open filelist repeat with i in filelist tell application "Terminal" do script "ffmpeg -i " & POSIX path of i & " -vcodec h264 -acodec mp2 " & POSIX path of i & "_compressed.mp4" end tell end repeat end open

Use brew cleanup to get some spaces back!

Use brew cleanup -n to list what's gonna get cleanup

Use brew cleanup to clean only that particular formula
