You're stil not fooling anyone. Your comments are as foolish as a carpenter saying he only ever uses hand tools. When you're learning to be a carpenter, then of course you'll learn to use hand tools. But professional carpenters in this day and age are using power tools for most of their work.
You're not fooling anyone. You gave it away with the lazy slashdot stereotype of StackOverflow. Spending 3 hours on an issue that a StackOverflow search would have found you the key to in seconds is not being a productive programmer. And it's certainly not being a professional one.
You're a poser, not a programmer. You don't do this for a living. You have far too much to learn.
But think of all the viruses that poor Word document needs to support
You're obviously an amateur, or someone who works on very small projects.
You are mistaken.
You're in outer space. The same president that's bombed twice as many Mulsim countries as Bush, the same president that tripled forces in Afghanistan over Bush levels - and arranged them to stay there through two full terms of Jeb or Hillary - the same president that joked about murdering American kids right after murdering American kids with drones, the same president that demanded the right to throw American citizens in military prisons without trial...wanted to 'cut and run from Iraq' cuz he was too liberal?
Are you out of your fucking mind?
Assad did have a powerful military.
Syria's annual defense spending is around $3 billion dollars. Saudi Arabia's is around 25 times that amount.
You have been modded as "Troll"
Because he's trolling.
(i don't dare to mention Apple because... my "/." karma is suffering righ now!
Whining about Apple on Slashdot is about as risky, or unpopular, as whining about socialists at a gathering of teabaggers.
but "making it more expensive" is a usual "(marketing) feature" for some brands
Nevermind that competitors charge comparable prices for comparable products.
>What was the solution in the 80s that you are referring to?
Ethernet.
Either it has wifi or an "RJ45" jack on the back or it's crap.

So you can't.
If your Emacs has all the features of my IDE, then it's an IDE.
IIRC, it's also non-linear.
A 5,000lb car causes more than twice the wear of two 2,500lb cars.
Or it was an iTunes EULA and it took them an hour to click through 132 Next Page buttons...
Go on then. Demonstrate it.
OK, so you're lucky enough to be writing code from scratch, and you're not working with other people. And you're working on an algorithm in engine code, rather than applications. That cuts down how often you'd want to do it.
That's kind of similar to the students I mentioned that are the classic users of vi.
But in the commercial world, you're usually working on large, complex systems, with a lot of history, usually originally written by other people. And you know it'll be built on still further by other people in future.
IDEs help handle the complexity of big projects. Of which the refactor/renaming rather than search/replace is just one example.
