Lmao yeah, a hype train that began in checks notes 1987 when screen was released.
These children have zero knowledge of history or the craft itself, and I wish we could take away their computers.

He's right though. Same for people who use TUI editors. Let's just call a spade a spade.

He's not right. There's a whole host of features and functionality that terminal multiplexers bring to the table that he doesn't even begin to address. For such a long article it's actually quite shallow.

Heh. I still remember when we made fun of people for not being able to hack it on the terminal (and we were all still using screen back then to be productive). Tech is such an irrational pop culture. Nobody has respect for history, and anything old is automatically labeled elitist. Where did we go wrong?

Whoa there buddy. It’s fine to say: “I tried a thing, and it just wasn’t for me”.
But to proceed from that point and onto: “so rather just letting things be, or making a good-faith effort to understand those with differing opinions, I’m going to project and harshly judge them” is such a downer.
I guess what I’m trying to say is, I tried reading this blog and it just wasn’t for me.
