There is this one concept. I can’t get away from it. Comprehension bandwidth. Emacs is an amazing piece of software. I have probably used it more than any other piece of software over 20 years. The marginal utility of Emacs over pycharm or Gedit does not exist. Most programmers, if they are being honest, can be just as effective in notepad. Modern IDE that understand their problem domain provide much more utility. These are simple facts. We type characters, they do stuff. It don’t take a fancy editor to do that.
