Someone told my friend that they would be forced to use VIM at work as an IT requirement, at university in 2015.
Even if he was only using remote terminals I can't see how this is a sane thing to say to a class of students.

- JohnBooty 8y agoThat's hilarious. Knowing how to us vi(m) is a valuable skill (and one I lack sadly) but you only really neeeeeeed to know if if your IT role involves working on random remote systems. As a software developer that has never been an issue for me. I can think of only one or two times in my whole life I was working on some random server and didn't have pico/nano available. And even then I think I was just able to use sftp to edit it with my local editor of choice.
