"take pride in using programming languages and text editors that have been designed by programmers, not updated since the 1970s, and never touched by anyone with a modicum of design sense."
Sounds like this was written by a web developer.
- michael_h 13y agoProgramming in a text editor designed by a programmer for programming? Sounds...logical?
- warrenm 13y agoUsing an editor designed by programmers means you're most likely not getting a well-designed interface. Developers are notorious for not knowing much (if anything) about good UI design.

- smileysteve 13y agoWell, yeah, this pretty much describes vim. No cues are told how to save, exit, search, or insert. But, it's functional, and once you learn the functions, it's quicker than using a mouse and many other tools.
- lightblade 13y agoI think vim has the best designed interface. This is reason why so many other editors always have a vim mode. Remember, imitation is the best form of flattery.
