[you go to jail meme template]

Panel 1: You want to write a program? Use vim.

Panel 2: [logos of matplotlib, pandas, and R] Need to process scientific data? Also vim.

Panel 3: [LaTeX logo] Writing a report about that data? Vim.

Panel 4: [OpenSCAD, CadQuery logos] 3D modeling? Believe it or not, straight to vim.

Imo Thats more of an emacs stereotype.

I mean, there is a openSCAD preview plugin https://github.com/zk-phi/scad-preview

I dunno, sed, awk and echo do just fine without layering on the bloat with Vim

🤓 ed is the original editor

and when something isn't available in vim, just use the built-in terminal to access it

"What are you trying to tell me? What I can quit vim?"
"No, Neo. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to."

How to use vim in 2 simple steps:

1- Pretend to use vim

2- Use nano like a normal person

Am I a bad person for using Visual Studio Code?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You are just normal and sane

I tried nano, but none of the standard key combination would let me save or quit.

As an Emacs user, I support this meme.

When I was programming around 1990, we used VI, not VIM, and there was this rivalry with the emacs people. It was like one of those "Windows vs Mac", "iOS vs Android" things but with UNIX text editors. Glad to see, 30+ years later, VI(M) people and emacs people are able to reconcile their differences :)

Now I feel bad to have moved to other editors over the years, nowadays VSCode :P

Bold of you to assume that the VIM emacs wars have ended

Both sides of the debate: WE Will win this fight! ... Eventually.

I ask interviewees what they use as a text editor. If they answer emacs, job interview over.

"Keeping a diary of your life? vim. Managing AI data? vim. Doing simple edits on programs? IDK, nano I guess."

Wtf is there a reddit like banner at the bottom? Is this really a thing we gonna do? There is barely such thing as orginal content these days. when it comes to memes and "ownership" it is a ridiculous concept Considering there is nothing to "profit" off of. Karma on Reddit was meaningless and it doesn't even exist here.

And the last point that is maybe valid is it brings attention to the specific community and lemmy. But i can promise you ppl will be more interested organically than they ever will be by an eyesore of a banner. Shit just linking to the original post is better for getting someone to the site and potentially getting them to sign up.

And the banner just straight up on the post. Shit is stupid and i hope i dont see it more places on lemmy.

It's a meme
