The author should also learn that hiring a 18y old "kid" means also that this person is in need of mentoring first! This guy hired an intern and he expected him to act like an actual productive employee.
(since when interns should learn to edit with emacs?)
- shiggerino 11y agoI don't see a problem with having interns learn Emacs, but he should probably look into a better version control and deployment strategy than editing files on the server.

- shiggerino 11y agoThat's still a strange way to work compared to using a DVCS or even checking out with old-fashioned SVN or CVS. I also hope they didn't use the crippled console version of Emacs, but made use of TRAMP.
