Wait... You don't use an IDE taking up 2GB of RAM to write posts in "plain text" using a random flavor of Markdown, with custom extensions only supported by a single blog generator, and then use the command line to call 250MB worth of Node libraries which creates an AST from the barely parsable text file, all to then generate a basic static HTML file?

What's wrong with you?

An IDE using 2 GB of RAM? 2010 called, they want their IDE back.

In all seriousness I love me some JetBrains's, but boy do they eat RAM like there's no tomorrow.

Still a paying and satisfied customer.

At least no one complains about Emacs anymore :)
