Sources say the decision was made by how long interns spent in each editor. In fact, it appears the vim users simply never exited once they opened the program, presumably because they found it so productive.
We need to set aside our petty differences and fight the true enemy: bloated IDEs.
ed is the standard editor.
Bah, a magnetised needle and a steady hand is the one true way to edit code on your prod system.
Excuse me, but real programmers use butterflies.
Hah, still relying on butterflies? Real programmers simply use the starting conditions of the universe to understand where their program will spontaneously compile
I used to have my local environment synced to prod. Saving meant deployed.
Everything was feature flagged by default, we never broke production in years. That was early 2010s.
That’s non standard though.
You shouldn’t let your Visual ideas be Eclipsed, by something Sublime…
Such an IntelliJent comment.
Emacs was the first bloated IDE!
Waiting for an executive order on vim vs neovim.
White House are not Emacs guys!? That’s not surprising. They believe in ‘you can’t change the program, but the program changes you’.
Finally, a president I can get behind.
@andrew@lemmy.stuart.fun I know exactly one vi command. :q!
I think the guideline should be: future software should be written on a whim
