> if its (sic!) 2021 and you still write code using vim and niche languages then you are doing it wrong

That's literally what I keep hearing since 30 years lol (for vi proper not vim, that is).

Please familiarise yourself with the HN Guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Please don't dismiss comments for grammar or spelling mistakes. These are not substantial criticisms of the argument being made, and are IMO a form of ad-hominem.

I would be grateful, if you could explain which of the guidelines I may have transgressed. I read them all and searched "grammar". Nothing comes to mind.

My own comment was precipitated by the sneering tone I read in (sic!)

Which itself points out a grammatical mistake unnecessarily. Then compounds this, by making a more egregious mistake.

Really my comment was making the same point. Don't point out grammatical mistakes, which is the precise purpose of (sic).
