How to use vim in 2 simple steps:

1- Pretend to use vim

2- Use nano like a normal person

[-] kernelle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

ESC ESC ESC :q

[-] Kalkaline@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Am I a bad person for using Visual Studio Code?

[-] cool@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

You are just normal and sane

[-] beigegull@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I tried nano, but none of the standard key combination would let me save or quit.

[-] demonsword@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

you can always edit /etc/nanorc if you don't like the stock keyboard shortcuts

[-] Temetra@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Or Micro, if you're a filthy casual like me

[-] rackmountrambo@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Jesus, how much more basic can you really get than nano?

[-] nicman24@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Ed or just sed

[-] b3nsn0w@pricefield.org 8 points 1 year ago

and when something isn't available in vim, just use the built-in terminal to access it

"What are you trying to tell me? What I can quit vim?"
"No, Neo. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to."

Transcription:

[you go to jail meme template]

Panel 1: You want to write a program? Use vim.

Panel 2: [logos of matplotlib, pandas, and R] Need to process scientific data? Also vim.

Panel 3: [LaTeX logo] Writing a report about that data? Vim.

Panel 4: [OpenSCAD, CadQuery logos] 3D modeling? Believe it or not, straight to vim.

As an Emacs user, I support this meme.

[-] InfiniteFlow@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

When I was programming around 1990, we used VI, not VIM, and there was this rivalry with the emacs people. It was like one of those "Windows vs Mac", "iOS vs Android" things but with UNIX text editors. Glad to see, 30+ years later, VI(M) people and emacs people are able to reconcile their differences :)

Now I feel bad to have moved to other editors over the years, nowadays VSCode :P

[-] SomeBoyo@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

Bold of you to assume that the VIM emacs wars have ended

Both sides of the debate: WE Will win this fight! ... Eventually.

[-] constantokra@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

One hundred years later.....

[-] gizmonicus@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I ask interviewees what they use as a text editor. If they answer emacs, job interview over.

[-] jcup@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Based meme :wq

[-] pacology@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Was this image coded in vim pixel by pixel? If not, I’m disappointed.

[-] Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Imo Thats more of an emacs stereotype.

I mean, there is a openSCAD preview plugin https://github.com/zk-phi/scad-preview

[-] Nomecks@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I dunno, sed, awk and echo do just fine without layering on the bloat with Vim

[-] Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

🤓 ed is the original editor

[-] Seven@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

"Keeping a diary of your life? vim. Managing AI data? vim. Doing simple edits on programs? IDK, nano I guess."

[-] ArtificialLink@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wtf is there a reddit like banner at the bottom? Is this really a thing we gonna do? There is barely such thing as orginal content these days. when it comes to memes and "ownership" it is a ridiculous concept Considering there is nothing to "profit" off of. Karma on Reddit was meaningless and it doesn't even exist here.

And the last point that is maybe valid is it brings attention to the specific community and lemmy. But i can promise you ppl will be more interested organically than they ever will be by an eyesore of a banner. Shit just linking to the original post is better for getting someone to the site and potentially getting them to sign up.

And the banner just straight up on the post. Shit is stupid and i hope i dont see it more places on lemmy.

[-] utopianfiat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's a meme

[-] Evoke3626@lemmy.fmhy.ml -2 points 1 year ago

R u retarded

[-] sebastian_m@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Funnily enough, I have had the same experience recently, but with VSCode

[-] Kutsuya@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Vscode is the way to go. I know how to use vim, I just find it a hassle. Been using Linux for over 20 years by now, man, time flies...

[-] hinterlufer@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

guess what, VS Code has a vim mode

[-] Kutsuya@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

I prefer to stay away from torture.

[-] hinterlufer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That's what I though, but a few weeks in I also switched Obsidian to vim mode and I'm loving it

[-] MinekPo1@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Wait you can do modeling in vim? OMG I need to try

[-] TheMuffinMan@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I still haven't discovered an itch that R couldn't scratch.

[-] andrewfeeney@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I enjoyed this meme.

You joke, but this is how the typing system of BASH works

Also, upvote for Nanachi 🐰

[-] Seven@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Bashing the kernel with some strings pratically

Also, thanks for giving the fluffy bun doll updoots, have some from me too
