Sublime is buggy when using poorly built (my assumption) plugins that are required to be productive. I gave Sublime years of my fulltime attention, many, many hours of use, debugging and testing. It's not a "hype train" decis

Yep, I found every plugin I ever needed for Sublime. But then the minor conflicts between the plugins start happening. Of which the only support answers online are "uninstall plugin/test". So I had to choose which plugins to

I think $80 is very reasonable for a great tool like Sublime (for work) if it suits your needs.

It's not a problem at all, can't claim a name really can we. :) I currently use Codemirror [0] as the online editor, but when editing online, I do miss a lot of the tools available in VScode. Do you have an opinion of Monaco vs Co

If all I needed was a great text editor, I would use Sublime. It's everything I want in an editor. But, for web development, I feel like a second or third class citizen using Sublime. Maybe that is the separating line between these two

I really like your idea about officially supported packages, but also to group them together for popular techstacks. This was exactly the same problem I had. There were so many options that just didn't work well that I wasted tons of t

Here's a few things: (without effort put into this...) 1. Package management / Extensions. Vscode comes with this right away, Sublime you have to install a package manager to manage packages...-sigh- 2. File icons. (this may seem

I agree, for a basic editor Sublime is faster, generally speaking. (ie, open, navigate, search, etc...) But while actually coding, I can't tell a difference, and in some cases VScode is faster than Sublime. (in my experience) But faste

I used Sublime for over a couple years. At the time it was the greatest editor I had ever used. But to get "basic" features (that come default with VScode) required plugins. And then plugins would conflict sometimes, but there wer

Because when I was a kid, and I turned on my Apple computer, I found I could start coding right now... I mean right now. Write and run. No apps, no compile, no editor, nothing. It was just a bizarre and wonderful thing. In 3rd grade I had a

The syntax/formatting reminds me of Lingo [0]. But also Logo and Basic. One of the things I really liked about coding in Lingo (in Director [1]) was the sparse syntax but the code auto-highlighted as you typed. (not common back then) B

I am certainly not going to defend a situation I am unfamiliar with. My thought was simply that through the years of online shopping I have never seen a return label in a package that I can recall, but getting an RMA has rarely been an issu

Late 90s/early 00s, there were companies that I bumped into that would lock a site's data and resources up so a customer couldn't leave. Because of this, one of the first features I build in my CMS was a full export function.

jQuery... I am still in the process of purging all jQuery from my projects. It may be a mistake to use it in your code examples. (my personal opinion/experience is that front end devs are moving away from it entirely, and it's onl

I will second this. I recently replaced Google maps with Leaflet.js. And as soon as I had a beta ready, and I had updated sites with the new code, I found a better way to render the maps using Mapbox's own js libraries. But it doesn&#x

I had a similar situation, I had a partner at the beginning but since that failed dramatically I had to dive into the deep end on my own. Running a business is just as much work (or more work in some ways) as building the tech for the busin

This is a hard question to answer because there are still people that make a living doing everything under the sun. Are you asking because you are concerned about the field dying? This would be a viable question, so I will assume this is yo

I generally agree there's probably no point in discussing this without an end game. So here's one: Do you believe that python/ruby/go/node.js/etc.. can replace php and do a better job? I haven't heard a re

Your argument reminds me of a debate I ran into about using pocket hole jigs. The experts would make hand carved mortis and tenon joints and consistently attacked and ridiculed pocket hole jigs. And said no professional would ever use pocke
