    You don’t need this many editors x) Neovim for all your terminal needs, emacs evil mode when you need some actual UI in there like a notebook or R markdown !

    Besides that, Java is never the right tool. It’s always close enough but never quite right ; just like you can technically replace every single tool with a knife… But you shouldn’t. (Except a knife does have a proper use, Java does not)

      The fun thing about this meme is that the film showed SGI’s fsn file manager running on IRIX.

        IRIX is a discontinued operating system developed by Silicon Graphics (SGI) to run on the company’s proprietary MIPS workstations and servers. It is based on UNIX System V with BSD extensions.

        Close enough I’d say. After all, she didn’t say “this is UNIX”, she said “this is a UNIX system”.

          Which would have been pretty in keeping with Hammonds spared no expense but actually cheaper than f out especially book Hammond. We’ll just use productions computers rather than paying the UNIX license

          This is the equivalent of a woodworker building jigs and other tools with their thousands-of-dollars of equipment.

          Source: me. I do this. 😬

            Yeah, the feeling of “just needing that one perfect tool before I can do this” seems terribly common and I feel like it’s being enabled quite a bit in our society. If I just had the right editor/keyboard/notepad/fountain pen/jig etc, then I’ll be able to work on this other thing…

              Oh god. That is so me. Always with the “if only” mentality. If only ________ then I could do ________.

              And of course, it never gets done. 😅

    Why does it start with Men? Did you mean to put “man” there, or do you think only dudes collect tools?
