Control + Arrows also moves your text cursor by whole words. Combine it with shift and you can easily select a bunch of text without the mouse.

Another one that took me far too long to learn: Shift + Tab will do the same thing as tab (next element) in reverse

It's the Home/End keys on US keyboard layouts. I use them all the time when coding.

CTRL + Shift + Home/End will select all to the start/end of a document. I use that one a lot
