Man in the event of some newcomers to the development game, those that will mostly work in the web domain or sys admins that are in training I want to offer some small advice:
Do not neglect vim
I know it might be a bitch to use at first. And I will never use it as a replacement to vs code. But fuuuuuck me I cannot count the number of times that vim wizardry has helped me when dealing with servers when dealing on a machine with windows and nothing but putty.
The thing is a lifesaver yo, and it makes for an impressive show when doing something in front of senior executives.
Learn it, love it, live by it
And exit is :q, save is :w, to copy and paste is :v then surround the text and then y to yank it and p to paste it.
:vsplit and :split are your friends and to move around splits is ctrl w and direction.
Good luck my friends. Stay classy.9 -
Copying code from stack overflow doesn't make you a developer. Knowing where to paste that code makes you a developer.2

People who try to justify not writing unit tests are the same as those who try to justify not using a condom.

Using vim instead of an IDE has helped me increase my typing speed but I also think that I understand more this way.
Without auto complete (although you could get this via plugins) you have to type every single character which helps you understand the things you type3 -
Does vim have a tree view and multiple tabs? Maybe some sort of plugin? How bout Neovim? If there is anyway to get that on vim I am sold, but until then I’m sticking with my text editor.7

You say they are looking for me, but when i contact them they pretend like they dont even know me.5

I just found a SECRET/EASTEREGG in devRant!!! How could nobody notice this before!?
Go to the "More"-menu and read the first letter of every katagory. Put them together one after another.
You will now notice that it says:
"I- -M-A-D-E- -T-H-I-S- -U-P- -L-O-L"14
