That’s a well designed compiler.

I would rather see it just added to the standard definition as a valid character, so the compilation passes without issues. It would make lives of Greek programmers a little bit easier!

But on a second though, it would probably make the lives of compiler programmers a living hell. Having to deal with two symbols for one thing sounds really annoying :D

I love that this implies Visual Studio is not worth its salt, because it most certainly isn't.

Depends on the language.

For .net, it's pretty hard to beat.

For anything else, I use vscode. Its a great all-around IDE/editor.

I hear lots of people say good things about rider- but, I have yet to actually try it out.

Mostly- because, getting my company to spend $$$ on tools..... is like pulling teeth.

You should check out Jetbrains Rider. It feels like cheating. Or ReSharper if you can't leave VS completely

Bruh the refactoring is so goddamn amazing. And the shortcut to just automatically fix all indents? HNNNNNNNNG

My biggest beef with it though is that it has no visual designer for .net core winforms. Like what the fuck is that. If I need to bang out a propietary app for an enterprise client in 8 hours winforms is the avenue of choice. It might not be winning any popularity contests but goddamn is it easy to have a working product in mere hours.

I use Rider and DataGrip daily.

delial 4 points 3 years ago

Then we can at least agree that DataGrip blows SSMS out of the water.

By salt, I mean the total cost of the software. The install size, the launch time, the update time, whatever they're charging my company, and any overhead in using it.

For VS, it should be better. It's big. It's slow. It lacks features. There are poorly supported features and abandoned, half-baked stuff. I have to have multiple versions installed because they broke backwards compatibilty for some stuff. MS should be able to do better, but I don't think the company can.

nvim + coc.nvim + coc-clangd (or other language LSP implementations) will give you the conveniences of modern IDEs + the power and speed of vim 🙂

Coc.nvim is kinda bloated though. Really wish developers put more effort into their LSP servers instead of just saying “go use vscode lol”.

Then again, native LSP isn’t that bad. I’ve been using it daily for months now, it’s better than most people give it credit for.

I use Helix and Nvim pretty much concurrently and whenever I have to use vim I feel slower on most basic movements. A fresh set of keybinds is really nice - though simultaneously there are one or two specific actions which are slower or unintuitive in Helix. But overall I love Helix.

This would bite me in the ass because I often ignore these kinds of warnings in VSCode (SFDX for VSC is kinda crap, warns you about nonissues, and often doesn't correctly identify the problem).

Confusable characters get a little yellow box which is different from the squiggly underlines most linters and stuff use which at least makes it a bit more recogniseable.

Personally I can't stand having underlines all over my code, so I'll usually just "fix" the non-issue if possible, or otherwise just disable whatever the warning is entirely.

Ahh the solution is simple, in VS Code add these lines to your general config

    "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
        "editorError.foreground": "#00000000",
        "editorWarning.foreground": "#00000000",
        "editorInfo.foreground": "#00000000", 
    },

Then get the error lens extension, it's so much more pleasant. Visual example

I love that look, ugh. The inline errors are much more visually appealing vs the usual squiggly underline

I might need to look at vscodium since I'm not too keen on having more microsoft telemetry on my desktop. Been using Atom for personal projects thus far.
