God is like that abusive father who’s throwing a fit whenever someone is having a mind of their own.

Why did you eat that fruit?!? You and all your descendants are going to be punished for all eternity!!!

Like, the only morally good thing God has said is to not kill, but he’s not really a good subscriber on that one himself.

Same could be made about Christians finding arguments for why God is a good source of moral values.

I had similar opinion, but I’ve changed my mind. Now I can barely do any serious work without an IDE.

The main feature I’m after is code completion. Just getting a peek of which methods are available is something I can’t be without.

Code hints like ”this expression will always evaluate to false” is great to capture difficult to spot mistakes.

Code usage it’s is a must when doing refactors. It makes it easy to analyze how a method is used before I commit to a refactor.

Debugger and profiler is also nice to have.

Maybe old IDEs. Like Eclipse 10-20 years ago.

Modern IDEs don’t really have these issues as frequently.

They will barely get a slap on their wrists
