Not op but yes, I actually do. Dev for about 20 years, and the vast majority showing vim/emacs struggle when presenting. Could be presentation jitters ofc but the answer to:
You think thousands of developers are handicapping themselves for bragging rights?
Yes, yes I do. Thousands is not all, but they are definitively in the thousands
You are talking about synonyms here, and its highly subjective. The above poster has some good points with the more clear verbs but this whole end of the flow would work just as well as well with a "yes, I'm sure" and "no" instead of cancel
I personally think it's a bit of a fallacy to equal structure with less creativity.
Look at Calatrava https://duckduckgo.com/?q=calatrava&t=fpas&iax=images&ia=images
Further, you can't design something like the Burj Khalifa without creativity
Maybe the line goes where you are risking peoples life or not, maybe somewhere else. It still makes me sad that you equal programming with chaos. But that is very context driven. The drive for new software, new interfaces, new tech overall naturally breeds less oversight and less structure naturally ofc. But it doesn't have to be that way, nor should it be if you ask me
Your notion of an engineer is correct in a wide sense

The fact that you feel programming is not that makes me sad. But likely dependent on what software and what you work with. For example, if you build software for NASA or Baxter and dialysis machines and the likes, you'll get fired fast for not being structured. Working for Elon Musk and Twitter... Well...
This looks like javascript so let me guess the typescript definition
any|unknown
this is a joke, please chill
Here is one of the programmers who is quantum ready as well
It isn't more generic than its the same IDE but with presets and plugins loaded already. Thats the point, sorry if that was unclear.
Could have been funny if you weren't comparing their generic plugin based IDE with one of the pre-set, python ones. The descriptions are fine.
This also ironically highlights exactly the horrors and the business model of the intellij IDEs but that's a rant for another day
What blissful place you must be in, to think the wars have stopped. Hell, there is even inter-Vim wars now (vim, neovim, lunarvim et al)
Dont know the specific artist but its the album cover for a Cranberries album, "Bury the hatchet"
Teenagers? What effing instance are you running on? I mostly see 30+ IT people wherever I go
WASM is great and as it becomes more accessible it will likely take over more and more
OPs meme is just a sign of someone not understanding the softer parts around development. The meme also seems to forget that we tried java in the browser for two decades and it was just... Horrible from all perspectives, in all layers
