It's Hacker News. We're discussing a mainstream code editor. There are multiple discussions of code/libraries/engineering every day.
The generalization that implies that the OP is a person who codes for a living is far from "completely unwarranted".
- Volt 9y agoThere are plenty of students and hobbyists here. So again, take it easy on the assumptions.

If someone comments: "It's not much to pay $70 for something you use professionally, and get value out of it everyday etc" -- it only adds noise to chime in "I don't use it professionally" or "I don't use it everyday". It's a conditional sentence (even if implicit). If one is not on that category, then yes, obviously the argument doesn't apply to them.
