Curious if you have an automation pipeline setup? I'm using dotfiles, but always curious to see how other people do it!

I think he means to automate your setup on a new Mac (scripts, dotfiles, etc.)

Ah - no, I don't automate it. I have a list of dotfiles I hang onto but really the list of things I need is pretty short, so I just install them as I need them. And I really don't need to do this that often :)

Fair enough. I don't either, which makes me wonder if spending like 10 hours fiddling with my dotfiles was worth it, but oh well haha
