It's not that much caffeine and it won't do anything to your teeth.
> Agree with him, VSCode is THE IDE.
Nothing in that interview suggests he's ever used VSCode.
- Ciantic 4y ago> It's not that much caffeine and it won't do anything to your teeth. I'm sorry, but diet coke (and most sugar free drinks) causes dental erosion. It's not the sugar that causes it, but usually the citrus acid. Even some flavored sparkly waters have citrus acid in them.
- justin66 4y agoAh! That’s interesting. I guess my only knowledge in this area (other than the big thing - sugar and corn syrup are really the enemy, I would have thought) is that the magic ingredient that differentiates Diet Coke and Coke Zero is citric acid. I never thought about the tooth decay angle of that.
- mikedelago 4y agoWhy wouldn't it be bad for his teeth? It's my understanding that soda is typically acidic, and after you drink it the soda coats your enamel, in turn wearing it down.
- baby 4y agoI once read that soda is one the worst thing you can do for your teeth, hope I'm not helping propagate a falsehood
- fantod 4y agoHe does discuss VSCode towards the end of that clip.
- pzh 4y agoThe quantity of artificial sweeteners (aspartame, sucralose, etc.) in that many cokes, many of which were shown to be carcinogenic in experiments with rats, can’t be good for him…
- faeriechangling 4y agoNot having sugar helps a lot, but drinking Diet Coke means literally drinking diluted acid. Not exactly the healthiest thing for your teeth.
