Not surprising since most people have their own pool of extensions that they'll install but fail to mention any time the topic comes up. This is the "Firefox is beastly" strain of criticism all over again.

I responded to your first post, but I&#x27;ll respond here as well since you&#x27;ve added some more.<p>1) The money situation is tough, but workable. Are you in a position to ask for a raise or are there things you can cut back on to save some money? If you don&#x27;t want to change jobs yet, try those.<p>2) You don&#x27;t want to disappoint anyone, I understand that completely. Was this something you were once passionate about but lost interest in? Your post sounds like you&#x27;re experiencing burnout. Do you get paid vacation? If there&#x27;s no formal leave agreement, maybe ask for 1-2 weeks of paid time off to just go get your head clear. Drive up to the mountains and hike or relax in a cabin with some books. Come back a bit refreshed.<p>3) What kind of hours do you work now? If your work is taking up your weekends, reclaim them. Take day trips somewhere, find a local rec sports league, or go to a park and find a pick up game of soccer or something. You may not enjoy these things, find something else. But <i>try things</i>. You won&#x27;t know what you like until you do. I had no idea I&#x27;d like ballroom dancing until I took a date to a social dance one night (because I knew she liked dancing). It was the first time I&#x27;d danced in years, and it was a blast (for me, also terrifying because I felt like a klutz).<p>4) I get the bit about no serious romantic relationships. In all honesty, I had 2 in high school and college, nothing post college until that ex in the last paragraph. It&#x27;s not easy, and it can be terrifying returning to it after a long hiatus. But it&#x27;s one of those things that you have to try for if you want it, relationships (rarely) fall into your lap. In fact, the first time you have a partner and not just someone you go on a couple dates with may end in disaster. But I don&#x27;t regret that one, parts of it, but not the relationship itself. I was trapped, inertia-wise, in singlehood and dating her got me past that hump.

That. As an ex-Google engineer, I&#x27;m often asked why I quit. I usually reply with a soccer analogy. If you&#x27;re a decent player, and somehow you&#x27;re bought by Real Madrid, you won&#x27;t see much real action. There are enough superstars (technical and political) who get to do exciting stuff to keep you relegated to tedious, menial tasks.

This feels like a project that had a core idea that was good and justifiable (we&#x27;ll take some of the common JSON mistakes such as extra commas and most asked for features sub as comments) and then felt the need to keep throwing in features to justify its existence, and now it&#x27;s lost sight of its original goal.<p>This can&#x27;t even be parsed natively by major JavaScript implementations, so is it really JSON at all? Actually, I think that&#x27;s the root of my complaints, that it&#x27;s associating itself with JSON while clearly diverging from what was important originally in JSON. At this point it&#x27;s just some incompatible format leveraging the JSON name. I think most my criticisms would be ameliorated if it was just some other JSON-similar format with a different name.

That&#x27;s a very broad question. Rust does the things that I would say are table stakes for a decent programming language these days: decent type system (similar safety to Java) with type inference (similar conciseness to Python), a sensible approach to errors (errors are values as in Go, but since Rust is a non-joke language it doesn&#x27;t need to special-case errors at the language level, they&#x27;re just another type of value). Its unique thing is the semi-manual (but safe) memory management, but if you needed that then you would know you needed that, otherwise it&#x27;s not terribly important to you.<p>So it&#x27;s a decent language, but there are other decent languages around these days. I tried to compare them at <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;m50d.github.io&#x2F;2015&#x2F;09&#x2F;28&#x2F;when-rust-makes-sense.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;m50d.github.io&#x2F;2015&#x2F;09&#x2F;28&#x2F;when-rust-makes-sense.html</a> . I&#x27;d look at OCaml first, particularly given their relative maturity levels, but if you really can&#x27;t stand OCaml&#x27;s syntax then Rust may be worth a look.

Why? Because programmers learned that it is correct, even though it wasn&#x27;t.(Or at least it stopped being, in C99 an on.)<p>Here is a car analogy. It is like learning to drive and thinking that you are allowed to drive over a yellow-turning-to-red light. However the rules say, you should stop if you are physically able to. In reality almost everyone tries to get over than yellow. On a rare occasion they get spotted and pay the fine.<p>C strives for maximum performance, it will not check things for you if you don&#x27;t ask it to. Having a library function that performs those checks for everyone, would go against that rule. Why would someone else have to pay the performance penalty for you? Write a wrapper or a macro that performs the check, couple of lines, it is that easy.<p>If you strive to write portable C code it should work regardless of signed representation. C defines all the range macros for types, and gives you types that guarantee certain ranges. Assuming you use those types and macros, I&#x27;m really curious what incantations, that couldn&#x27;t been solved in a portable manner, require you to know the signed representation.

If you&#x27;ve not done something similar to fizzbuzz, then you&#x27;re not a programmer.<p>Programming is all about abstraction. And fizzbuzz is an abstraction of a huge range of programming work.<p>Namely:<p><i>go through this data</i><p><i>pull out bits, based on these conditions</i><p><i>then do something with it</i><p>Some version of that underlies the vast majority of programming work.

Not that this invalidates your point, but there are two university classes being taught in Rust right now; I had the pleasure of guest lecturing at Penn&#x27;s yesterday, in fact. Here&#x27;s hoping to more of those in the future.<p>I certainly agree this is a big plus for Java.

You first need to learn the differences between these editors, and determine what you expect from an editor.<p>It&#x27;s pointless to compare vim, atom, and eclipse in the same thought process because they&#x27;re completely different tools for different tasks.<p>&gt; ... as to why vim is superior<p>Vim is not superior categorically. If you expect your editor to autocomplete Java code for you and fill in imports and look up methods for you, and have extra features that aren&#x27;t even connected to editing, Eclipse is tremendously better. But Eclipse is a different tool. It&#x27;s a full IDE.<p>Atom is a gui-based editor.<p>Vim is a cli-based editor.<p>I&#x27;ve been seeing people left and right comparing editors as if there were some definitive lockdown about to happen that binds you to a single editor. Use whatever you like and what gets your job done. You can also use more than one for more than one task.<p>I use vim when I&#x27;m editing files via ssh remotely, Sublime when I&#x27;m editing local files, and VS Pro when I&#x27;m working with .NET at work, because these are, respectively, <i>my tools of choice for these tasks</i>.<p><i>None are &quot;better&quot; or &quot;worse&quot;. They&#x27;re just different.</i>

For me, it&#x27;s a robust extension API, because then I can have any feature I want given enough time. Atom definitely has an edge there imo. Performance is also a plus (I have no complaints there with Atom). VSCode looks promising, though.

At work I write Scala and the IntelliJ Scala support is simply unbeatable. It&#x27;s refactoring engine etc. is fully Scalafied -- when you paste Java code, there&#x27;s even a &quot;translate to Scala&quot; function offered. I use a &quot;vim mode&quot; plugin that allows me to hope around with 25j and such.<p>For my personal project (which is in Rust) I use Atom, which is new for me, but I find to be really impressive. Both its plugin system (which allow for all the extensibility and in my case Rust support) is fantastic, and I don&#x27;t know where the complaints about speed come from (it&#x27;s far lighter than IntelliJ, obviously).<p>I&#x27;ve really been enjoying Atom when I do use it, and don&#x27;t see why I&#x27;d switch to VSCode unless it had better support for Rust. But perhaps I&#x27;m missing something.

Also, from my own experience I can&#x27;t really tell if I&#x27;m actually typing&#x2F;coding faster faster since switching to Vim&#x2F;Spacemacs, but I did notice a significant change in achieving and staying in a state of flow. Not having to touch the mouse or consider how a text transformation should be done (but just doing it mechanically) helps me stay in the zone. YMMV.

Nitpick: Rust includes a GC. Box&lt;T&gt; is reference counted, although the reference count is always 1 until it is released by the owner, then it reaches 0. The reference counts are inferred statically for the most part.<p>:-P

<i>Do you have any UB-sensitive optimizations in mind that affect only C but not C++, or vice versa?</i><p>I presume there are some, but they aren&#x27;t the sort of thing I have in mind. I&#x27;m talking more about the expectations that the users of each language have. For whatever reason, C programmers are much more likely to complain about &quot;broken&quot; optimizations than are C++ programmers.<p>Of course this isn&#x27;t absolute, but I think it&#x27;s undeniably a pattern. I&#x27;d guess this is because C has a heritage of being &quot;portable assembly&quot;, and thus many programmers have an expectation of a 1:1 correspondence between the code they write and the finished product, and are startled when it doesn&#x27;t.<p>In the case of explicit null checks being removed and loops being removed resulting in memory not being zeroed, I think they have a point. Perhaps there is some way to apply different levels of optimization to the code that the programmer writes versus code &quot;generated&quot; code?

That&#x27;s a valid point Tim! At the moment, we&#x27;re only live in Copenhagen and San Francisco where we have crowdsourced the database mostly from local bloggers. We need to grow the database faster but want to avoid just copying stuff from Yelp as the reviews are too abstract in our opinion and we rather want to curate quality content. Do you have any thoughts here?

To be honest: relaxed formats usually bring a lot of glitches to keep in mind. It&#x27;s probably easier to use stricter specifications.<p>Take YAML, it looks pretty natural at first sight, but has a virtually infinite list of gotchas.

Numerous characters both major and minor get chapter names like that. Asha gets a chapter where she&#x27;s &quot;the sacrifice&quot;, Victarion gets a chapter where he&#x27;s &quot;the iron suitor&quot; and chapters that just go by their name as well. Arya has been &quot;the ugly little girl&quot; in the chapter title. Theon has been &quot;the ghost of winterfel&quot;.<p>Regardless, he&#x27;s still a point of view character that isn&#x27;t central to the plot.

I haven&#x27;t used Perl in quite some time, and this is the sort of thing is why it was bad. Quotes are quotes are quotes in almost every language. It&#x27;s completely unambiguous, the downside is that you sometimes need to escape them.<p>This, on the other hand, is a &#x27;solution&#x27; to escaping quotes that is completely mad. Using non-standard quotes, especially mixing and matching them is a disaster for readability and maintainability (using a T in your string now? need to change the quotes!). Triple quotes are just find if you want to avoid escapes, and hjson seems to support them.

What the computer actually does is dramatically different between reading a register and reading a block of a mapped file, but I value concisely expressing the intent rather than elaborately repeating mechanics that might change (e.g., I could optimize machines.__iter__ without rewriting all the statements).

I&#x27;ve been a long-time fan of Notepad++, but it&#x27;s a text editor. You can extend it to make it work better with specific programming languages (e.g. here&#x27;s a post I wrote 10 years ago about adding language support <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;weblogs.asp.net&#x2F;jongalloway&#x2F;creating-a-user-defined-language-in-notepad" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;weblogs.asp.net&#x2F;jongalloway&#x2F;creating-a-user-defined-l...</a>) but it&#x27;s fundamentally a text editor.<p>VS Code is a code editor. It has IntelliSense (not text-matched autocomplete, IntelliSense), debugging support, git integration, parameter hints, go to definition, code peek, etc. (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;code.visualstudio.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;editor&#x2F;editingevolved" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;code.visualstudio.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;editor&#x2F;editingevolved</a>). The goal is to give you code editing features with the speed and simplicity of a text editor.<p>They&#x27;re both free and lightweight, so I use them both pretty much daily.

My first programming job was working in David&#x27;s research group, helping transition Dasher (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk&#x2F;dasher&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk&#x2F;dasher&#x2F;</a>) from a research project into one more generally useful for accessibility purposes. I still feel that that job was perhaps the most useful work I&#x27;ve ever done - I had the opportunity to write code that in some cases literally made it practical for people to communicate, and that (along with David&#x27;s strong views on social responsibility) ended up strongly shaping my perspective on what technology&#x27;s role in society should be.<p>I saw David only rarely after leaving the group to do my PhD, and hadn&#x27;t in years before I saw him at a group reunion last month. I&#x27;m saddened that I passed on so many opportunities to learn more from him.

Firstly, this post is from 2014, and should probably have the title modified (if it even stays).<p>But more importantly, Michael has archives spanning all the way to 2013, with his 2014 blog posts oddly disappeared. Does he still feel this way, is this an accurate statement in today&#x27;s economy?<p>I think it&#x27;s a very controversial statement to say &quot;any&quot; money. Developers do quite well - on average, developers make more than the majority of the population. Some, especially in engineering management, make on par (or more) than some lawyers and even doctors.<p>Just like specialties in law and medicine, some pay more than others because of demands, and those specialties can cycle in demand. For example, radiology is really hot right now and pays very well - it was not as lucrative or selective of a specialty in the 70s and 80s.<p>Similarly, in engineering, choosing a language like Haskell may be highly-specialized, so that if someone needs your skills, they will pay a pretty penny, but amortized over many years, you may make less because the volume of demand doesn&#x27;t quite match what one is willing to pay. I also think it&#x27;s a flawed comparison to law and medicine. An example:<p>A lawyer doesn&#x27;t specialize in English or Spanish. They may know a few languages to talk w&#x2F; clients, which is an asset, but they specialize in a discipline of law (e.g. corporate, tax, IP), not on the toolbox used for the law (e.g. reading&#x2F;writing English).<p>To draw that analogy to programmers, better to know a discipline (e.g. HCI, Machine Learning, Robotics) and then find languages that go with that (e.g. Python &amp; R for Machine Learning, C&#x2F;C++ for Robotics) than to specialize in a language itself.

Vim user for ~10 years ... I find Vim more productive for writing prose than coding, since oftentimes the limiting factor when coding isn&#x27;t pure typing&#x2F;editing speed. And, as other posters have mentioned, good IDEs nowadays have a lot of integrated support for the entire software lifecycle and not just for pounding out code as fast as possible.

We (Razorpay) recently did a webinar[0] on UPI, along with a corresponding blog post[1]. We also have an FAQ[1] up on the same.<p>A lot depends on how many customers adopt UPI and how well the banks implement it. If they respect what all NPCI has said, UPI could change a lot of things (affect wallets, improve transparency, cashless economy etc). However, a lot is hanging on few points:<p>1. How well do banks implement UPI?<p>2. Does NPCI open up UPI to more players? If yes, when and who? Wallets are the one that are most interested in this. [3]<p>3. Do they improve on UPI over time? As of now, UPI is missing a lot of its (promised) teeth. For eg: recurring payments, pre-authorized payments, split payments.<p>If anyone is interested on knowing more, I could probably answer a few questions here :)<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;0Yyxor0VYsE" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;0Yyxor0VYsE</a><p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;razorpay.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;what-is-upi&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;razorpay.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;what-is-upi&#x2F;</a><p>[2]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;razorpay.com&#x2F;upi&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;razorpay.com&#x2F;upi&#x2F;</a><p>[3]: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.livemint.com&#x2F;Companies&#x2F;ZSGu2hTgSn21bKzvY8hycI&#x2F;Paytm-strengthens-top-management-for-payments-bank.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.livemint.com&#x2F;Companies&#x2F;ZSGu2hTgSn21bKzvY8hycI&#x2F;Pay...</a>

Even really old systems should have received an update of some form, to such an extent that the story in the op would be ridiculous rather than a discussion topic.<p>When I use the command I need to block out all distractions. I check my surroundings for things which might fall on my keyboard.

This is a community standard for how image artifacts should look. Right now, everyone is building systems against the Docker image specification which is problematic because Docker can and should be able to modify and extend it however they please. By agreeing on a common image spec, support for features can be more consistently available as they appear while Docker and others can extend and innovate for customers that want those specific features.<p>As an comparative example, we have common CSS specs which provide consistent support for most features as they are included, but Chrome, Mozilla, and WebKit are still able to experiment with new features.

pretty much everything under the sun can encode and decode json, often as part of the stdlib<p>toml requires you track down a toml parser, at the very least

I accidentally set executable permissions on the following Makefile:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;samalba&#x2F;acdcontrol&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;Makefile" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;samalba&#x2F;acdcontrol&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;Makefile</a><p>While typing quickly I tab-completed to &#x27;Makefile&#x27; and hit enter. Although it was a Makefile, it was executed as a bash script. bash ignored the incorrect syntax and executed line 10:<p>rm -rf $(DIRNAME)&#x2F;*<p>If make parsed the file, $(DIRNAME) would have been nonempty. But it was empty under bash.<p>--no-preserve-root did not protect against this, because the target of the command was &#x27;&#x2F;*&#x27;

I&#x27;m surprised to see a LaTeX plugin maintained by Microsoft in VS Code. Seems a bit niche for first party support from Microsoft but I&#x27;m totes down!

Why not aim it at a shortcut that has --kiosk in the path already? C:\Users\User\Desktop\shortcut.lnk instead.

The problem uninitiated users have with vim is that it&#x27;s modal. It&#x27;s not that they can&#x27;t type :wq; it&#x27;s that they don&#x27;t know where or how to type it or even, conceptually, what the heck is going on when they type that command and it shows up as text.<p>I&#x27;m a long-time vim user, but it&#x27;s at least worth confronting the criticisms head on (even if this one is a bit tired).
