Fair enough too. In my case I tend to go for 50/50 - I take about half my vacation days to literally "do nothing" (meaning catching up on games I missed since my son was born by lack of time, waking up late(r), watching movie

Last I tried setting up LSP in ST, it kinda blew. Tons of manual, machine specific configs. No debugging, refactoring... From my POV they are _not_ comparable.

My completions/auto-imports/refactoring/debugging workflow is more or less identical in VS Code and PyCharm for JS/TS stuff. Python it's so-so. The golang plugin has pretty good integration for all that stuff too. I

I tend to agree with this POV. However, even I have to admit that VS Code (which this IDE is based on) is pretty much the poster child of Electron done right. For many languages it's quite literally IDE level of functionality, for less

Average without median doesn't really tell me much. Not that it's likely (more or less playing devil's advocate), but could just as well be 2999 minimum wage jobs and a single person doing millions.

Say all you need is a fixed set of strings that get reused everywhere. What is better accomplished by defining a union type AND consts literals rather vs creating a single string-based enum and using that everywhere? I feel like I'm mi

Yeah, it must be. I much prefer using monitors at stock resolution, without scaling, for that sweet real-estate, rather than having pretty displays where I can't see pixels just so it's pretty. I had a retina MacBook for a while,

I'm curious: why do you care about aspect ratio vs. (effective) resolution? Seems like an odd thing to focus on, when it has nothing to do with how much stuff you can display on screen. Do you mean at comparable sizes?

Maybe our definition of what counts as a friend differ? I don't really consider work acquaintances (some of those I loved working with and would do again in a heartbeat if the occasion presented itself) "friends". A friend is

Yeah that can work. I've had a barbecue and games with my current full remote team before lockdowns, it was fun, and seeing them face to face was nice. But it was during work hours. And I still took my car and drove back home at the en

For some languages, VSC plays in IDE territory. Compared to other IDEs in the same space, it's pretty similar, if not lighter.
