Pulsar, the best code editor
Pulsar, the best code editor
The key to being productive as a programmer is to have a great code editor. I have been an avid user of Atom since 2014, and its successor Pulsar since now in 2023.
Pulsar (former Atom) is still the best code editor in my opinion. It is easiest and fastest to use, has all the nice productivity boosting plugins and is overall great for all the same reasons the Atom was great. 🚀

code is just text, so code editors are text editors.
What sets IDEs apart are their features, like debugger integrations, refactoring assists, etc.
I love command line ± Vim and used solely it for a large portion of my career but that was back when you had a few big enterprise languages (C/C++, Java).
With micro services being language agnostic, I find I use a larger variety of languages. And configuring and remembering an environment for rust, go, c, python etc. is just too much mental overhead. Hard to beat JetBrain's IDEs; now-a-days I bring my Vim navigation key bindings to my IDE instead of my IDE features to Vim. And I pay a company to work out the IDE features.
for the record, I am in the boat of, use whatever brings you the greatest joy/productivity.
text editors
Yes, I use MS Word then print as image to pdf. Outlook works too, but it's less secure, and Power Point is too fancy for my taste (I don't like animated transitions when my code wraps between columns). It's amazing how far we've come from punched cards, and how fast, I can barely keep up.
you sound like a Microsoft engineer ;)
I was trying to be a bit funny but I forgot that I'm not funny, (I'm) just a joke.
for the dummies (like me) that can't read the room, especially online, a sarcasm tag /s goes a long way 🙃
... oh, you are right, now I fell dumb, I should use that more often, it would have worked perfectly in so many situations.
I am trying something similar irl, basically announcing my intentions (not just sarcasm) & trying not to feel weird in the sort of way like when somebody tells a joke & then starts to explain it immediately afterwards.
Eg: I'm genuinely happy you pointed that do directly, I'm not being sarcastic.
hey, that's what the internet is for; information sharing :)
Ah, yes, when humans build & use something for good. I forget sometimes about that. That reminds me, I should donate some moneys to Wikipedia again.
