Programmer Humor

Man I just use Notepad or IDLE most of the time, I feel you man

I write all my code on paper and use OCR to convert it. It almost works sometimes.

At one of my jobs around 2010 there was a dev in the office who wrote all his code in Notepad. When I joined the staff they were still using Classic ASP. My job was to help them (finally) migrate to ASP.Net. He intended to develop .Net apps in Notepad rather than learn how to use VS. I got laid off due to cutbacks and never found out what kind of luck he had wit dat.

One word: ed

That boy is gonna be a murderer

Gedit was my main text editor for years. I also used it for work. It has all the basic features that you need for coding. For everything else I use the terminal.

I used Notepad++ for virtually all coding I did (Python, JS, various Markup Languages, Action Script back in the day, etc) for a couple decades. The only reason I use VSCode now is because I inherited a nightmare of a legacy spaghetti bowl and needed the function tracing to attempt to figure out anything. I still prefer N++ for most small projects.

Sublime! There are DOZENS of us! Dozens!

Code in MS Word because it handles tabs correctly, unlike all code editors.

Tab means "move to the next tabstop", not "advance a fixed amount".

(I don't do it, I'm not THAT insane)

Yep. Fancy devs watching me coding some Rakulang in nano 😂

helix ftw 🧬

I like SublimeText for everything unless a quick edit at the CLI with Vim.
