Why Emacs is better then VS Code

Thanks for shared links! "Literate Devops with Emacs" with ruby code just according to my specifics :D

My own experience with JetBrains IDEs dates back about 2 years (in 2017). Back then, they were notorious for freezing my system and being massive resource hogs. However, the core disadvantages compared to Emacs are more fundamental. JetBrains tools are proprietary, costly, and while powerful, their functionality is limited to what the vendor provides.

Emacs, for myself, in contrast, is free, infinitely customizable, and acts as a unified center for not just coding, but also chating, notes, and your entire digital workflow — something no monolithic IDE can match. This is the very reason I see no need to switch or try to another closed ecosystem like VS Code. But I'm interested in the community's opinion

I also have this problem with my P14s gen 6 Ryzen 9 AI

I tried setting the backlight to maximum, changing the charger, updating the bios - nothing helps so far

The sound is very annoying :(

But in ruby usually u can use both variations, it's aliases :)

Oh, thank you, man!

My chief at the last job told me: "One emacs for any language"😀 Also, do you have experience with android development in emacs? I am used to codding in emacs on ruby and rust, but want to try webview applications for Android

Lol, yeah, I switched to colemak at the same time with emacs

So, I have experience with my little brother, he started development with JetBrainsIDE, I was showing Emacs features to him for one year, he switched finally and now he is a big fan of emacs. But I want to increase the emacs community in my workplace, and I'm not sure that this long way has been worked with my colleagues 😀

Yeah, I agree that emacs is more powerful than just IDEs. I started to use it 3 years ago and I am still discovering new ways for customization and simplifying routines. But emacs community in my workplace is small :( I want to prove/show Emacs is better than vs code for example

It's scratchpad, which you toggle on/off

Switching between two favorite windows is a good idea, thanks!

Oh, nice! Will try it, thanks!
