    Ah, so Code is the same as Vim if… I go out of my way to either disable things on one or install things on the other.

    Or… Or… Code is an IDE (that you can strip down) and Vim is a text editor (that you can strip up).

    We don’t stop calling a computer one just because it can still boot without most of its modules. The default presentation matters.


  • The majority of companies who use Slack (over the likes of Teams) are tech-oriented companies made mid last decade.

    Making a Twitter scrapper that pushes to a webhook would take half a day and would cost essentially zero if you just toss it in a random cloud cluster and forget about it. And if you don’t have that scale, then you likely have a team leader somewhere who will run it on a machine of their own out of spite.

    And scrappers are way more wasteful for the target webhost.

    This change hurts literally nobody other than Felon. Good.
