    This is a fact! Great post.

    Quoted: Before I wrap up, I’d like to point out that if the title of this post sounds suspect to you, consider it a huge red flag.

If this is you, take a look at one of the editors I’ve been discussing here, and take the time to learn it–I promise it’s worth the trouble. Just, uh…choose carefully.

    Awesome rant.

    Quoted: If you don’t like dynamic languages, then don’t use them! Leave us alone and go back to your monolingual world, and maybe rename your methods again. You can even have my IDE, since I’m not using it, which should double your productivity yet again, right?

    Ummm, this is insane. Why not just write extensions for GNU Emacs? Yeah, I can't think of a reason either.

    Quoted: We are looking for developers/testers to build a tool that I will roughly describe as "Emacs.Net".
