  • IDE in general are not that good.

    VSCode has a lot of of expansions, enabling a developer to stay in the same environment for any language they code in.

    So if you have a multi-language setup, you can do everything in the same IDE.

    I work with embedded firmware, and let me tell you that VSCode is miles ahead from manufacturer tools.

    I personally don’t use VSCode because microcontroller manufacturer tools usually come with a repeatable easy to install environment, so I can easily handoff the projects to my clients.

    But if you ship code and don’t have to ship the environment, VSCode is a good allrounder that can do pretty much anything.

    With that said, use VSCodium instead. At least, it removes the analytics from the IDE.




  • The negative effects of social medias as they are today is plenty documented.

    It is harmful for literally everyone. But big tech made it so that they integrated themselves in pretty much everything.

    Lots of organizations use Facebook groups to vehiculate important information, that won’t be elsewhere.

    This bullshit law is lazy and a way to bullshit people when politicians are pressed about what they are doing to curb social medias created societal issues.

    Yes, parents are responsible for what their kids are watching, but it is extremely hard to avoid social medias because they were closely integrated into our everyday life.
