That rain almost killed my goat, if not that I was caught at home as I was going out, I would have come back to meet a dead goat at home, and rush to the FP to scream EGBA MI O!

why be say programming topics no dey make fp for here? He be like say seun's mod hate us o abi dem dey afraid of us?

It has been very long that my posts on this board reached frontpage. I dont know, but my guess is this - they feel that since most of the issues we talk about in programming are for limited audiences, they will rather put things that will attract more audiences.

Lets look at things from the point of view of the admin - programming topics dont make plenty hits unlike the SNAKES and SCANDALICIOUS THREADS. Write a topic in romance section and let it start with cossy ojiakor - even if it is rubbish, it will generate more trafficks than general programming things.

lol. Good thing that didn't happen

did you just wish my goat dead?

I mean good thing the rain didn't kill your goat.

oh i see, i just had to be sure. . . .

My love for sublime tho, wanna try bracket out too

If you have enough RAM and CPU power to give to JavaScript, Cloud9 has a good cloud IDE; try it out if your day is cloudy.
https://c9.io/.
It supports Vim, Emacs, and Sublime Text key bindings.
I've used gedit, kwrite, kate, Sublime Text, Emacs, Nano, Micro, Eclipse and Aptana Studio (the other names for bloat), Notepad++, Editra, Atom, Brackets, Geany, Netbeans, Codelite, Codeblocks, DevC++, Kdevelop, PyCharm, Spyder, Visual Studio Code, and HTMLPad.

My favorites had me hooked on certain features: elegance, malleability, and open source.
Emacs: very customizable, but not so elegant. That interface needs some redesign; I'm looking at what Remacs will be.
Sublime text, HTMLPad and Notepad++: customizable, elegant, but closed source.
Kate and Kwrite: elegant; they just work and have decent usability.
Geany: simple, elegant, customizable, and easy to work with. I'd like a plugin for Emacs keybindings in Geany.
Kdevelop, Netbeans, and Codelite: well designed, elegant, open source.
Visual Studio Code, Atom, Brackets: customizable, elegant, and open source.
PyCharm and Spyder: neat for Python development; I've not seen better options than these.

In the end, I just pick anyone and start working, only switching if I see the need.

Atom (can be slow sometimes)

And

Vim

I no gree say Atom dey slow. I think it depends on your system - what is the specs of your system?

Atom is definitely slow at startup, and uses hundreds of megabytes of memory. It also consumes more CPU cycles than Sublime Text.
On my system (with 4GB RAM, 2.67 GHz Intel Core i5 quad core processors), Atom starts up in not less than 5 seconds on first start, a little faster on subsequent restarts. Sublime Text starts up in not more than 3 seconds. Geany, too, starts up faster than Atom.

Yes that is correct, the startup is a bit slow compared to sublime, vim etc

VS Code, then Sublime.

Eclipse, Netbeans, Notepad ++
