You don't choose your sign but your choose your editor. Just the fact that you choose means that certain types of people are more likely to choose one over another. Therefore its valid to make certain assumptions about the general type of person who uses an editor. When talking about sign i assume you mean zodiac sign. It is assigned to you based on the month, approx. 9 months after two random people have randomly decides to sleep with each other.

I remember using brackets before version 1.0: Brackets was initially developed as an open-source project by Adobe in 2011, and early versions of the editor were made available to the public for testing and feedback. However, the first official release of Brackets was on November 4, 2014, and this is generally considered to be the date of its public availability.
If you break them into three groups - heavy weight IDE's (Visual Studio, Eclipse, IntelliJ), editor / light weight IDE's (VS Code, Sublime, Brackets), and vim/emacs/helix... then you could probably generalize something of value about their users. Not that one group is better than the others, but they do have different interests.
@@vaisakh_km I don't know if you're just wearing out the same old joke here or being serious, but yes I am saying that compared to the former two categories Emacs is clearly in the third, and it isn't just because its memory and processor consumption and startup time are similar to my current vim setup, but rather because I don't think this third category is all about resource usage. It is more about extensibility, distance from the underlying environment, users' likely knowledge of how computers actually work, etc. It is a category difficult to define, but there is a reason the editor wars are about these two very old, very good programs.
We used Brackets in my college web development classes back in like 2015 but it got replaced by VSCode very fast. I haven't thought about Brackets in so long, what a throwback
This is going to sound weird, but despite not being a PHP programmer, I have a phpstorm subsription. I use it for rust (when im not using helix), as well as javascript. Its actually due to this weird combination of embedding both intellij and datagrip such that I can be modeling a DDL schema, associate it to my codebase, and the language server will give me lint-style static analysis of query usage which is embedded in or included in my codebase. This makes building applications that interact with databases (if nothing else, sqlite) a lot more auditable. The irony is, while you can get datagrip as a standalone, it only seems to come bundled with phpstorm. Which is weird, because its significant gain to me is only by combining it with one of their other ides.

Can we go way back in history to Adobe's GoLive text editor, and talk about the "Pic Whip" for a minute. Quite possibly one of the best names and tools of those early-day editors. The PicWhip was used for drawing a connection between the GoLive UI and the Filesystem. Since no one knew how to type a path to an image file, you could simply drag a "whip" over to the image file you wanted, and GoLive would capture that path for you. If this editor was covered in that article it would say that I'm fuggin old, but I know how to whip it good.
Am I the only one who stick to "language-specific" and even native IDEs depending on what I am coding? ex. Python -> Python IDE (not Pycharm, Not Visual Studio etc.) Java (android) -> Android Studio (not sure if there are any other options out there) Java (desktop) -> Eclipse C/C++ -> Dev C++ (very old IDE but it works) HTML/CSS/JS: HTML-kit Lastly, Config files on linux burried deep into a file system that HAS to be edited -> nano xD

VSCode is my favorite editor, and I'm super sloppy :D My desk is always supermessy etc. EDIT: Prime's own descriptor of VSCode users fits me a lot better than the articles :D
I religiously use VS Code not because I like it, because I mostly have to. Most of the "Good" editors have steep learning curves in either the basic usage department, such as Vim and all it's derivatives, or the amount of tools they package with the editor for you to use like all of the JetBrains products. All of these options are really enticing, and I do want to switch over to Vim at some point, but the lack of free time to properly give it a good crack leaves me chained to the poison chalice that is VS Code.
Just pick one and do it once. It doesn't take that long and is only annoying for a few days. Put a picture of vim shortcuts up somewhere and just work like normal
One of my favorite vs code features is the command pallette that also shows the shortcut for the command. You literally learn to use it as you go if you abuse the command pallette
Switch to Neovim, learn global marks, use harpoon, good LSP and Copilot. Some shortcuts are very useful too, you can learn along the way. I was there not too long ago pal
If you want to give Emacs a whirl, you can set it to use CUA-keys, which will let you use the good old CUA keys you know and love. (You know, Ctrl + C for copy, Ctrl + V for paste and so on? They're called Common User Access keys, and were invented by IBM in the eighties.) The thing about Emacs is that it gets better the more you use it. I'm going to give setting up a language server and see how it works for Java a whirl this summer, and if it works, I'm going to have to stop using IntelliJ... :D

I religiously use VS Code not because I like it, because I mostly have to. Most of the "Good" editors have steep learning curves in either the basic usage department, such as Vim and all it's derivatives, or the amount of tools they package with the editor for you to use like all of the JetBrains products. All of these options are really enticing, and I do want to switch over to Vim at some point, but the lack of free time to properly give it a good crack leaves me chained to the poison chalice that is VS Code.
that's the problem with Emacs for me, so I mostly use Nano while I slowly learn and setup Emacs
Just pick one and do it once. It doesn't take that long and is only annoying for a few days. Put a picture of vim shortcuts up somewhere and just work like normal
One of my favorite vs code features is the command pallette that also shows the shortcut for the command. You literally learn to use it as you go if you abuse the command pallette
Switch to Neovim, learn global marks, use harpoon, good LSP and Copilot. Some shortcuts are very useful too, you can learn along the way. I was there not too long ago pal
If you want to give Emacs a whirl, you can set it to use CUA-keys, which will let you use the good old CUA keys you know and love. (You know, Ctrl + C for copy, Ctrl + V for paste and so on? They're called Common User Access keys, and were invented by IBM in the eighties.)
The thing about Emacs is that it gets better the more you use it. I'm going to give setting up a language server and see how it works for Java a whirl this summer, and if it works, I'm going to have to stop using IntelliJ... :D
LOL. The sunsetting of Atom happened in December of 2022. Time is messing with you buddy.
"Do you even have to say MS? Is MS like a, is that a requirement? Can you just say windows" the next millisecond youtube hits me with a Microsoft Azure ad 💀
Tom is just freaking genius
I'm the guy of the article and definitely, I'm not use Emacs, I use VSCode 😂
The best formula of Albert Einstein is still e=mc²...
error=more code²
The PhD forgot one very important category of Emacs users:
The Lispers.
"Is MS required?"
Yes. Saying it lets everyone know you recognize Windows is a neurological disease.
The only editor everyone should use is what Tom asks. TOM IS A GENIUS
I remember using brackets, it was a great time.
> The person whose shoes are falling apart but who refuses to buy new ones (“85% of the material is still intact!”).
That's me lol. It's just the other stuff in that paragraph is not true (I had a haircut every 4 or 5 weeks)
Also I suck at making decisions
I'm a normie using C++ for basically the first time ever today and the bit about loving pizza couldn't be more accurate. Not sure about the sweater, spectacles, etc as I've yet to undergo the impending transformation into that.
Emacs + vim keybinds is the way to go.
you, sir, are evil
Using your own text editor: gigachad
"The person who hasn't had a haircut in the past 3 years".
I'm still waiting for Covid to blow over, okay?! lol
i was a npp kid and it did the work most of the time. Now i'm dealing with emacs and all it's bs, may move to vim eventually but problably when switching to linux.
I cannot take this personally. The only thing I do take personally are my Vim and Tmux configurations.
You're welcome.
Visual Studio is the best IDE ever created !
sublime was my first, then notepad++ for lua, brackets, atom and ended with codium
He missed my favorite text editors, gedit and nano. Gedit is the default text editor on Ubuntu and nano is one of the CLI text editors on Linux distributions, but isn't universal. I know where to find some Cent OSs without nano. I prefer gedit over nano and both over way over vim.
Yeah man I just love your videos. Nothing more to say. Hit the like button and move along.
I’d definitely be keen to listen to you on a Lex podcast
Btw Casey uses his own custom editor its called 4Coder, He was probably on a new computer that day so he used notepad++ for the demo.
No. 4coder is a different editor, written by Allen Webster, that Casey uses on the Handmade Hero streams. For work, Casey uses a custom editor.
We were forced to use bluej in class
*screams in agony
"Visual Studio Code users are the ones still wearing sweatpants at 1PM"
Never have I felt more targeted. Will gladly drop f-bomb when it suits though. So assessment is spot-on.
I used to use VSCodium regularly (for school). I'm perhaps more a user of the n-bomb, but I use the f-bombs as well.
I love Vim! Is the best Emacs package
ED(1) Unix Programmer's Manual ED(1)
NAME
ed - text editor
SYNOPSIS
ed [ - ] [ -x ] [ name ]
DESCRIPTION
Ed is the standard text editor.
Holyshit forgot about brackets. It was brackets vs atom at one point 😂
As someone with a PhD and associated with many others...i roll my eyes talking with some of them so much my eyes hurt 🙄.
Pretty accurate, i love pizza and mainly use notepad++
The only thing that matters is using a font like Comic code.
I must repeat: "ed(1) is the standard editor." Corollary: edlin is a suitable replacement.
GET THE PRIMAGEN ON COME ON LEX!
‘g o t e m. Albert Einstein. get rekt.” 😂
"when you see someone with whom is a phd" lmao i hope you said that on purpose
who says its not all on purpose... or stream brain... never know ;)
My wifes a mom and she buys me sweaters so technically accurate.
Vim is for the top fuel dragster drivers of the coding world 😈
The comments crack me up sometimes, where do these guys come up with this stuff!? :D
I am soon to have a PhD, so I do agree you should always agree with what I say
I'd watch the fuck out of Prime on the Lex Fridman pod!! Fingers crossed this actually happens.
"I use elvis, btw"
i made my own. what's that say. it's not the best, but it works and i can change things when i want.
This article is pure manure. And Tom is a programming god
Visual studio, neovim ?
Tom built first text editor ever
I'd just like to interject for a moment. That's not a typical GNU Emacs user. I always give black or white answers and I'm not a fan of wine.
Einstein was ruthless
Gotta do Spacemacs 🐉🔥
Vim user, I'm bald - checkmate PhD person.
