For software development and other practices where distinguishing
between the colors in a color scheme is important (e.g. red versus
green, etc.) the base16-tomorrow-night theme offers a great middle
ground between aesthetics and readability.
Since sudo times out after 5 minutes, and since we don't want to run
every command as root, we can instead create a "persistent sudo" by
invoking the sudo command at least once within 5 minute time frames.
This script does just that, and solves the problem of sudo timing out
after a long command.
