Thanks for sharing this guide. For those (like me) who are lazy and want to delegate the hard work and maintenance to folks smarter than me, starship is a cross-shell prompt that will print duration of commands. https://starship.rs/

Interesting observation. Any theories on why? As someone who has consumed but not written much by way of schedulers I’d be keen to hear thoughts.
Seeing this published on Nature's website is quite thick with irony. They have profited greatly from locking up access to academic papers in their most prestigious journals.

The article includes the following tweet:

“Open Science is not compatible with one corporation owning the platform used to collaborate on code. I hope that expert coders in #openscience have a viable alternative to #github,” tweeted Tom Johnstone, a cognitive neuroscientist at the University of Reading, UK.

Github's current position is to be default open with a paid option for private. Nature's default position was to lock up journal articles and sell them for extortionate prices.

It's surprising to see them post an article noting that scientists feel MS will change that for the worse. They have been good participants in the open source community of late specially under Mr. Nadella's leadership.
