They are a TikTok creator so I would assume by editor they mean a video editor and not a script editor or a code editor. Although my first guess for vs was Visual Studio it looks like there is a video editing app called Video Star and then it would follow that AE is Adobe After Effects

[-] lauha@lemmy.one 23 points 1 year ago

No no no. His editor's pronouns

[-] aviationeast@lemmy.world 70 points 1 year ago

I need to add that to my signature block: vim/vs

Nano means really short person in Italian, what did the devs mean by this?

[-] havokdj@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
[-] frippa@lemmy.ml 56 points 1 year ago

My pronouns are gnu/linux

[-] raspberry_confetti@lemmy.ml 49 points 1 year ago

Visual Studio/? I got nothing for the second one.

What sort of monstrosity takes a combination of visual studio and after effects to create.

[-] TheYear2525@lemmy.world 46 points 1 year ago

YouTube programming tutorial videos.

A game, maybe? Can After Effects be used to make 3d models like Blender?

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

After Effects is video editing software. It cannot make 3D models.

[-] karstin@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Not exactly. After effects is a compositing software, using it as a normal video editor would be possible I guess but totally insane lol

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

I use OBS for screen/game recording because it doesn't add a stupid watermark and is free. I'm aware that's not the main purpose of the program and I don't stream. But other screen recording programs are bloatware-ridden, non-functional crap.

So maybe After Effect is just good at it's side hustle.

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

Idk if you have after effects, chances are you got it through adobe creative cloud and you also got premiere pro which is miles better for video editing. Video editing is possible I guess but imo it would be like using excel to write a whole essay. Like the workflow is just not set up for doing normal video editing in there so it would be really fiddly and annoying.

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

Fair lol. I'm pretty sure it doesn't have the capabilities to make 3D models though.

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

Yeah I use nuke so I'm not sure but I think it can work with simple 3d objects but doesn't have any good modelling tools to create them.

[-] leekleak@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

after effects maybe?

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

Definitely After Effects for the second one, but I’m lost on the first one?? Visual Studio was my first thought; but I’m assuming it’s video editing software. Vegas Pro is the only video editor I can even think of that starts with a V???

[-] bi_tux@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

I use doom/emacs

[-] ArmokGoB@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Guy in the picture is technically correct (the best kind of correct).

[-] ultratiem@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

Edit what, pronouns?

[-] BruceTwarzen@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

Who is confidentially incorrect here? Vs/ae aren't real pronounces, so he's right, just an idiot.

[-] 520@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago

The author was referring to their toolset, not their pronouns.

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

Would it kill them to write the whole name? They're not that long.

I'm a big fan of not shortening anything unless you're going to use it extremely frequently in a body of writing, and even then, you had better type it out at least once.

I feel like acronyms should never be assumed and always defined, shits annoying.

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

Depends. Some tools have annoying names, and if they're on mobile, autocorrect can be an asshole. You wouldn't want to type out GNU Image Manipulation Project all the time, so you'd just say GIMP.

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

A pronoun may also contain information about one's toolset.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 23 points 1 year ago

The top comment confidently believes that "vs/are" in the profile referred to pronouns. They were incorrect.

[-] FierroGamer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Technically, the commenter only said they weren't genders and wouldn't call them that.

[-] lemming007@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Well, how would you even know they're aren't pronouns?

[-] Erika2rsis 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

"Ae" is actually one of the oldest coined non-binary pronouns, originating in the 1920 science fiction novel A Voyage to Arcturus, where it was used to describe members of an alien race. Its oblique and possessive determiner forms are both "aer", a pun on the alien race being composed of air.

The only result of "vs" I could find in a database of coined pronouns is as a possessive form of "v", which I'm unsure if has any attestations. However, v/vs could be taken as a spelling or inflectional variant of ve/vis, which was first proposed as a gender-neutral pronoun all the way back in 1864.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Because the creator said they aren't.

[-] lemming007@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

That was after, no way to know before.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

You might even say they were confidently incorrect.

[-] magicalbeast69@programming.dev 15 points 1 year ago

Because its never referred to pronouns.

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

They were correct on both counts. Those aren't real pronouns, and they aren't calling them that.
