And then there's the majority of devs, like me, who did not spend months forcing themselves to actually make vim/emacs into an IDE and, at the same time, who suffer from no negative effects with one of those "IDE-of-the-week" (JFYI, that's not a thing). Intellij, Pycharm, and VSCode are all stable and fast. I don't think I've had neither of those crash on me in the past three years.
You're laying out a false dichotomy.
- saurik 4y agoI'm not laying out a false dichotomy, I'm laying down two stacked arguments, and you are welcome to disagree or agree with each of them separately (and it isn't even clear to me that you disagree with the first one--about how that supposedly-large cost is amortized over a lifetime of development--as you seem to have been so distracted by the second). (And yes, IDE-of-the-week is definitely a thing. The shear number of different one-off text editors and IDEs for various language stacks I've seen people try to get me to use over the past 25 years is staggering.)
