   Agreed, I don't have much to add, I've been on both sides of the fence. Your comments hit it exactly, conjuring something from nothing takes amazing talent. Taking that and making it better is arduous but there is a path there, it

   You seem to be suggesting that professional coders don't use open source tools or that open source tools aren't professional?

   Is it an easier to use chroot? Because I'd just use chroot if I wanted that or maybe openvz. Or just spin up a virtual node dedicated to the task I need it to perform.

   For me, jobs and projects come and go. Working with good tools is something I do all day. That matters a lot to me.

    That's impressive to me, don't like JavaScript but doing that is impressive. It's also interesting to see how useful a canvas element is.

    Or for many of the world's desktop Linux developers who use Eclpipse, EGit is quite good and also free. Oh, and it works on Windows, Mac, for that matter just about any Linux platform that supports Eclipse.

    This looks interesting, definitely going to look into it. $35 // month doesn't sound too bad, just not sure why I wouldn't just fire up a VM on my local machine which has 16 Gigs RAM. $15 would be more palatable for a 3.

    I looked into IDEA when that was announced, I can't figure out at all why a smart outfit like Google would do such a thing. Eclipse is very sophisticated and complete. Unreal.

    I love how in Eclipse when I edit something and it's wrong I get a nice little red X icon even before I hit Ctrl+S so right away I know something is wrong. If that error affects other files, the affected files in the Package View light

    Linus introduced Linux in 1992. Linus introduced git several years ago primarily for Linux. git is used to maintain code that's over 2 decades old. My comment seems to me to stand.

    >> "I give a ton of credit to Linus for having created git back in the day." Back in the day? It seems like git just came out, is just a few years already like ancient times? I don't get why they can't use git? Git

    Not necessarily, more code means more maintenance which translates to more cost. Adding new features requires more research, more work, more time, more cost. Fixing anything requiring a patch after going production with a new feature would

    I read through the article, hard to believe they will be processing billions of dollars on top of JavaScript. Maybe I've been wrong and now it's time to dump Java and go all script.
