I rarely use code folding. Furthermore, few people other than programmers use code folding.
Not knowing the copy and paste keyboard commands is a completely different realm of incompetence!
But you're right that lots of developers don't know many keyboard commands. I was being a bit too broad. Personally I can't imagine how any programmer would not bother learning keyboard shortcuts (or even better vim keybindings), but I've met plenty who didn't.
- foldr 9y agoIt seems odd that someone would not know the copy/paste keyboard shortcuts, but the most likely explanation is that he hadn't figured out that it's Command+C rather than Ctrl+C on the mac. That being said, while using the 'edit' menu to copy/paste is clumsy, I don't see that it would actually have a significant effect on someone's productivity. So I would not go so far as to say that someone was incompetent just because they did that.
