Re:Why not just use an IDE if you want IDE features? by swinkels on Saturday October 01, 2011 @05:55AM (#3059747)
As an avid Emacs user, because I like tinkering my development environment. It may not always be productive, but it sure can be fun!

Please do not underestimate the long term benefits of tinkering and discovering new things in the process. For me personally, I noticed that those kind of activities might not seem productive in a short term, but tend to give me important insights (and productivity gains) in other areas of my professional life later on.
