Working with CMS' was especially awful. Complete lack of creativity and felt like it was mostly just hooking up inputs to outputs without anything in the middle. Even when there was some custom functionality required it was mostly copy paste jobs.
If I ever have to make another Wordpress theme I'll slit my fucking wrists
Assume positive intent. This business of putting in complaints behind someone's back (bear in mind OP asked for permission!!!) is just childish
My manager explained the situation to me but it still doesn't make sense in hindsight.
There exists two companies in the US headquartered in two different cities. Some bankers buy both. Now the reason I bring it up is I wanted some fairly simple information about some configuration on one of the services that a team that came from the other company, based in a different city. First thing I try is message the person on Lync (imagine a shitty msn messenger). No response. I know you're online! I talked to my boss to see who else might be able to answer my question. He tried to get in touch with the other guy and cc'ed his boss. Radio silence.
A week later the other boss sends a forward. The other boss explains he had been on vacation for a week and didn't check his emails. The forward also has the answer from the other developer from a week prior.
We are not talking super secret missile launch codes. It is a fairly boring detail but the developer didn't hit reply all to the email, sending it only to his boss.
By the way the employee didnt complain. They were happy to have someone fixing their companies app. The sales manager was watching from afar with dissent. Plus I tried asking the programming manager about the app first, so he could follow company hierarchy. He was too busy playing video games on his PC & just shrugged his shoulders. My choices were basically slack off like him, snitch on him to the CEO, or go get the answer elsewhere. The latter seemed most appropriate.
- built in terminal
- git integration
to just name a few on top of my head
Sublime fell a sleep to be honest. I have a paid for license and I never use it anymore.
- The amazing support on GitHub: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues
I just realized the other day(as someone using Code since a few months after its initial pub release) that I've actually fallen far behind on the new features. I need to go back through the release notes and try out a lot of the new stuff.
I update every month and it never feels intrusive. Although I usually end up updated after any recovery release(path release) would hit haha :D
Using HTML/CSS hackery where you should be using JS instead creates an anti-SEO, non-semantic mess that causes headaches for others to work on and nightmares for anybody needing to extend or modify functionality.
Don't get me wrong, I love pure CSS solutions and try to use them as much as possible where it makes sense. But sometimes, it definitely doesn't make sense. JS isn't something users or developers should be scared of anymore, it's much better supported and much less intrusive than it used to be.
The only things I may agree with is https and zipping.
"Fits on all your shitty screens" Does mean that it FITS ON ALL YOUR SHITTY SCREENS. Mine is a 1920x1080 (which is the minimal nowadays) and the 2nd and third iterations DO NOT FIT IT.
That thing around the web page, it is called a fucking window. It resizes. I'll do that if I want your fucking column-format.
If you just take your browser's defaults for all the typographical stuff like that, everything looks like trash.
