you should never be logged into a linux machine for long enough to need to configure a text editor. vi/vim is for editing enough system config to be able to remotely work on files on the machine from an actual desktop OS

the last time i used eclipse, probably 15 years ago, it appeared to be an incisive if sardonic philosophical commentary on the nature of abstract hierarchies and organizations. just absolutely incomprehensible bullshit where basic functionality was hidden into endless nested accessory panes with labels like “fables” and “episodes”

also an enormous amount of their developer energy went into technical underpinnings that constantly broke, like they had their own windowing toolkit built on top of native facilities. which is good because it means you get the benefit of native look-and-feel, right? and yet eclipse never felt well-integrated with the os, like i think it had its own notably inferior open/save dialogs

that all strongly suggests a degree of terrible project leadership which is really hard to overcome, so i assume it’s still basically like that

does anybody ever use or want all the project-management bullshit in eclipse?

I've written code for like 8 different embedded platforms that all ship Eclipse+plugin as their SDK, never once had any interest in literally 90% of eclipse's features

Eclipse is mission critical in Italy, since both the finance and custom ministries use a modded eclipse as a framework for paperwork filling for citizens. It’s a definite improvement from the previous thousand Java webstart apps that worked once every ten attempts.

eclipse sure is clunky, and indeed has a whole world of strange concepts it is built on, but i suspect i'll outlive a lot of IDEs and other things people love a lot more. for one it does just about everything important (while doing almost nothing really convenient) in a pretty scalable way, but mostly because tons of customizations and bespoke pieces of software are built on it which wont go away for a very long time (i.e. italy above is not at all unique).

wait what? like you file taxes by downloading some custom eclipse thing that has a bunch of forms to fill in? or is it more for businesses and poo poo? that is bizarre, what is that called?

the "ministries" suggest that it is what covers the screen of the public servants dealing with these matters. which is one of those places where i suspect eclipse is an excellent base to build on (comes with a sensible componentization, highly configurable and scriptable, accessibility tools, has a decent deployment story built right in, etc.)

again a world of clunk that i am very happy is out of my life, but in my mind more or less joins java in the category "will do what i need without surprise traps or limitations loving me over".

every form you need to compile that is not the precalculated forms(which are provided in a tablet friendly html5 site), ranging from individual citizen to huge firm, is a eclipse plugin which add the form and the verification formulas.

it was a multimillion euro system upgrade from the previous entratel platform which was a hodgepodge of bad code running exclusively on windows, no public servant got involved in the design choices that led to eclipse used as framework beside kickbacks

it has to be close now that clion has makefile support and the kernel can be built with the llvm toolchain. i believe the main blocker as of a few months ago were the gnu specific extensions the kernel uses, which caused the clangd based parser to fail on some macros

The way us does taxes (much like banking) is pretty much incomprehensible from an euro point of view. Having a standardized, simple (and no cost to the user) way to digitally intake all the data is pretty much an immediate return of investment, rather than having to deal with multiple commercial products that might or might not provide good outputs.

the us has this, both behind the scenes and as a consumer-facing product. for the latter you do have to know how to do your taxes, and there’s stuff it could compute for you that it unnecessarily doesn’t, but it exists

Update- Beta program for SQL Server on Windows container is suspended.

As you may be aware, the SQL Server on Windows Containers Beta program began in 2017. It has remained in Beta mode meant for only test and development environment until now. Due to the existing ecosystem challenges and usage patterns we have decided to suspend the SQL Server on Windows Containers beta program for foreseeable future. Should the circumstances change, we will revisit the decision at appropriate time and make relevant announcement.
Hence with immediate effect, the docker hub repos "microsoft/mssql-server-windows-express" and "microsoft/mssql-server-windows-developer" and the tags within these repos will be deleted and images from these repos will not be available for download going forward. We look forward to your continued support and feedback to help us improve.

SQL Server on Linux containers continue to be supported for production environment. This announcement only affects SQL Server on Windows container that was in Beta mode until now.
