How to use vim in 2 simple steps:

1- Pretend to use vim

2- Use nano like a normal person

[-] kernelle@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

ESC ESC ESC :q

[-] Kalkaline@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago

Am I a bad person for using Visual Studio Code?

[-] cool@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

You are just normal and sane

[-] gizmonicus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

I upvoted because yes, you are bad and you should feel bad.

[-] sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

No, we vim users are the bad ones.

There's a reason it's called 'evil mode' in emacs

[-] beigegull@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] hglman@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I know how to use Vim, but then I switched to Colemak, and now I don't know how to use Vim.

[-] Temetra@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] rackmountrambo@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] nicman24@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Ed or just sed

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.

[-] b3nsn0w@pricefield.org 9 points 2 years 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."

[-] Atarian@vlemmy.net 4 points 2 years ago

As an Emacs user, I support this meme.

[-] InfiniteFlow@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years 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 8 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Fluffy56@infosec.pub 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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

[-] constantokra@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago

One hundred years later.....

[-] gizmonicus@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Imo Thats more of an emacs stereotype.

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

[-] pacology@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Was this image coded in vim pixel by pixel? If not, Iโ€™m disappointed.

[-] Nomecks@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 years ago

๐Ÿค“ ed is the original editor

[-] sebastian_m@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] ArtificialLink@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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.

R u retarded

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

It's a meme

[-] TheMuffinMan@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] jcup@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Based meme :wq

[-] andrewfeeney@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago

I enjoyed this meme.

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

[-] amanwithausername@vlemmy.net 1 points 2 years ago

You can do 3D modeling with OpenSCAD, which uses plaintext files as source code for 3D models. So yes, you can edit these .scad files with vim. If you then want to compile and preview your model, you can just open the official OpenSCAD editor and close the text pane. It'll automatically watch the file you're editing for changes, compile it, and give you a preview of the model that you can rotate and move around.

The other software mentioned in the last panel is cadquery. It's a Python library for creating 3d models. But it's much slower and buggier than OpenSCAD, and, in my opinion, less intuitive.

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

Also, upvote for Nanachi ๐Ÿฐ

[-] Kutsuya@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

guess what, VS Code has a vim mode

[-] Kutsuya@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I prefer to stay away from torture.
