The things you’re describing are still just text editor features. An IDE generally has specific functionality for building, testing, packaging, debugging etc. for one or more programming languages/environments.
(Which vim can do if configured, I don’t really have an opinion about that tbh)
You can use nano without having to read anything about nano. That might be the only thing that is better about it than vim, but it’s a damn important thing.
Log files wouldn’t fall under the banner of compiled languages or ASTs, so I’m not sure how that example applies.
And I’m aware that it can lead to O(n²) complexity but, as others have provided, there are already tools that do this, so it is within the capabilities of modern processors
Yes there will be cases where the size of the search space will make it prohibitive to run in reasonable times but this is - by merit of the existing tools and the fact that they seem to work quite well - an edge case.
I wouldn’t expect it to be, but I think modern processors can handle the load!
One update in 2023? This site sucks!
Hell yeah, being lazy paid off. Thanks.
I’m convinced there must be a way of using ASTs to do more intelligent diffing of a given programming language, but I’m far too lazy to find out for myself.
What if Reddit was just the friends we made along the way?
So it’s kind of like the moment of inception is the memory reference, and they won’t ever be the same?
A fair and proportionate response.
Ow my eyes
I am in full agreement. My comment was purely for spiciness. How dare you respond with rational and agreeable points. Good day sir!
Why are clang and gcc the wrong way around?
That was the point I was making.
I turn to copilot whenever I need to embiggen my code
Because it’s significantly slower to analyze a series of computations and their values when stepping through them
Is there a better way of getting access than signing up via Play Store?
Absolutely. It also has whole-line cut/uncut which is a godsend when working with config files
