Emacs is fine, but buggy as hell.
Their version of Lisp is clearly not suited for any large-scale development. (This trickles down hard into user experience, i.e., lack of parallelism or multithreading.)
- JadeNB 2y ago> Emacs is fine, but buggy as hell. Is this so obvious as to go without examples? I'm no Emacs power user, nor even really an Emacs user, but it certainly conflicts with my understanding of core Emacs.
- otabdeveloper4 2y agoI don't really know what a "core Emacs" is. It's all elisp scripts all the way down, and elisp is as brittle as bash for writing programs.
- keyle 2y agoEmacs is fine, but buggy as hell. That kind of took 180 turn on that one. Ship is fine, but leaks as hell.
- buescher 2y agoAs long as I can keep this ship, I will keep bailing.
- otabdeveloper4 2y agoBugs aren't that big a deal for users usually though. Also all ships leak, that's not a big deal either.
