Funny you should say this - just this morning I was mocked during a standup because I use Neovim instead of VSCode.

Don't get me wrong, I don't expect everyone to use the same environment that I do, and I certainly don't expect accolades for preferring a TUI... but that struck me as a regression of sorts in software development. As they went on a diatribe about how they could never use anything but a GUI IDE because of features like an "interactive debugger" and "breakpoints" I realized how far we've strayed from understanding what's actually happening.

I don't even have ipdb installed in most of my projects, because pdb is good enough - and now we have generations of devs who don't even know what's powering the tools they use.
