    I've made a strong effort toward intentional news exposure by trying to limit the times I run across news articles. This has "minimized" my exposure to the times when I specifically look to read news sources.

    I'd be curious to know if anyone here is accomplishing something similar by filtering out Tildes tags and, if so, what does your list look like? Seems to be a hard balance between quieting the unwanted news posts and not limiting exposure to posts and articles I'd like to see.

    I'm a software engineer in the data space which means spending a significant portion of time digging into raw file formats such as CSV, JSON, etc. Visidata has been a blessing.

    VisiData is an interactive multitool for tabular data. It combines the clarity of a spreadsheet, the efficiency of the terminal, and the power of Python, into a lightweight utility which can handle millions of rows with ease.

    Also, less of a CLI tool, but I've been using DuckdDB a lot lately to dig into different file formats as it's easy to read differing formats into tables, compare files, then write to a third file or modify an existing one. All easily accomplished in a few lines.
