Why did he say all ides suck? What about code blocks and shietttt

>>58021434
Yes. I can't name one single fucking IDE that is even close to being good. vim is deprecated af, emacs is a shitshow, atom is a botnet, visual studio is a bloat monster, notepad++ is ugly to no fucking end. The only think you should use it just nano or leafpad/notepad fuck all their sloppy shit, just do it your fucking self.

>>58021635
Only one of the things you listed is an IDE. Come back when your intelligent enough to know what an IDE is.

>>58021841
emacs can be considered an IDE. It has a lot of features other than text editing.

What >>58021635
makes emacs a 'shitshow'? It's faster than Atom and I like its shortcuts better than vim's. I like Notepad++ too and who cares about software bloat when you can get 1TB hdd for $50?

Damn no one tells me the answers

Spotted the idiot

Come back when you have a job one day.

Visual Studio is God tier.

For fuck's sake, anon.

But otherwise I agree with you.

>>58021434
IDEs are terrible tools for beginners.

You can never trust the authors of such books, just look at the author of "learn python the hard way".

1. Zed Shaw is an idiot.

2. You don't need an IDE, especially not for Ruby, where you have so many good Vim plugins.

>>58026061
It's always the same guy

Zed shaw is the guy who said python 3 isn't Turing complete

Don't take him seriously

>>58027427
but it isn't

>"af"
kill yourself

His writing style is passive-agressive and the learning methods are plain wrong. Try another book.

Wasn't this considered the best guide on here at one point?? I'll co sider others I just thought /g/ loved him

>>58029195
No, maybe he was shilling himself at some point.
