This is bullshit. And not just because of Emacs, because I like vim as well. It's bullshit simply because:
- there is no IDE that can work with ALL the stuff I work with inside my text editor of choice;
- no IDE has the editing capabilities of Emacs/vim.

Nice comment:
My interactive development environment is my computer. It has unix inside. It works so well that I’m done while you’re still browsing that intellisense menu that popped up in the beginning.

^^^ I'm genuinely impressed with Pete! I have finally found someone whose ignorance equals or surpasses my own.

It's like the difference between buying presents for Christmas from HASBRO or K'NEX for your kids. The former if great if they are still drooling and soiling their nappies, the latter if you want to see their intelligence grow.

Using a text editor is elitist and lame, but writing a blog post about blasting them is cool? What the fuck, bro...
At least it reminded me of one of z3bra's blog posts: Java without Eclipse (and X).

^ Very true mate :)
It needs the following:

Your editor of choice
JRE (O RLY?)
JDK (U DON'T SAY)
Know your shit !
Taken from the blog, and that is why we like Z3bra :)

Sometimes it is just nice to read other people's blogs, when it is IT, programming and linux related. I just stumbled on this guy, and I find it a good casual read. But damn this guy is busy :)

Maybe it is more for the Programmers, ah well, he seems like an intelligent nice guy.

No more 32-bit Chrome.

http://betanews.com/2015/11/30/google-k ... bit-linux/

Looks like 32-bit Chromium will be around for a while longer.

The comments are interesting:
Finally, Google admits that Chrome is dribbling swine of a resource hog that requires access to greater resources than a 32 bit OS can offer.
