  • IntelliJ is an all-out full IDE in the tradition of the old Visual Studio or Borland IDE:s, so it makes sense there. Zed is ostensibly a text editor in the same niche as VS Code, vim and Sublime, where I expect to be able to just open a single file and edit it without any bigger investment.

    I typically have both an IDE and a text editor installed, for different use cases. But Zed can never replace IntelliJ and because of this design choice it can't replace VS Code/vim/Notepad++ either.

  • It drives me nuts that there's no way to close a folder once you opened it. There's no way to just edit a file without making it a "project". In my mind that's a weird design decision (which is probably rooted in weird fundamental ideas) and gives me no warm & fuzzy feeling about what direction it will take in the future.

  • Haven't tried all the ones mentioned here but I installed the modrinth app and can't really complain about anything so I haven't looked further. Easy to search mods and install them, it deals with all the dependencies, updates automatically, etc. It looks nice and doesn't get in your way.

  • It's crazy that so many people get so hung up on the size of the crowds. Like are you going to vote based on who gets the bigger crowd? What happened to voting based on the candidate's policies and track record as a politician?

  • The Godfather. It would be crazy to go through my life without ever seeing it, given that it's considered one of the best movies of all time. But I know I'm going to be disappointed because I can never empathize with or care about what happens to gangsters or unlikeable characters in movies. I saw Goodfellas and thought it was boring. I pushed through all of Breaking Bad waiting for it to get good, but it just got more and more tragic. Same with The Departed. So, I have no hope for The Godfather.

  • I'm from Sweden so I'm biased, but I cherish the leadership style in Swedish companies and it's an important part of why I want to stay here. Honesty is valued, you don't get punished for telling the boss like it is. The CEO doesn't act like they're better than you, and if you have opinions you can talk to them directly. I earn more than my boss because I'm more valued in the job market, and he's fine with that. The net effect is that leadership won't go around living in a fairytale and be surprised when a high stakes project fails. Risks are known and can be mitigated early on, and people feel empowered. I haven't seen this in any other country except maybe Norway to some extent.
