I think there's a middle point there. For context, I'm from Spain (our society is somewhat confrontational, in the sense that people like to argue about petty things and banter, it's almost a way of making small talk here) an

My personal gripe with intellij is how unintuitive the shortcuts are and how much clicking is the default way of operating. intelligent completion is something like cmd+mayus+space. "find usages" is cmd + f7 (which in osx means cm

what city are you dwelling where people don't use public parks and libraries? I'm not American but that's a concept as foreign to me as someone claiming they don't need roads because they're just for drunk drivers.
