Unpopular opinion:IDEs and editors that go above and beyond to provide the developer with more context & info that's not present in the actual source code, such as the inlay hints feature,can be very helpful to understand things right here and now, but end up being harmful to code clarity & readability in the long term

@bugaevc Also I think people should try to not be stuck to an IDE / highly-configured editor and a particular tool/implementation.Because you might be hit by a deal breaker bug and having the possibility of just switching easily to another is a possibility that I think one should just have.I had a bunch of implementation bugs over the years and not being stuck to a particular implementation (including not being stuck to GNU make) has been making things way more tolerable.

@wolf480pl @bugaevc Or just making sure you have two usable things so you can have a fallback.Also *knowing* nano?

@lanodan @bugaevc I just don't use an IDE anymore. Just Vim with a few plugins at most. Then whatever compiler and debugger are best for the moment.

@bugaevc I'm so happy the Go team disagrees with that, stating their opinion in Effective Go

@wolf480pl @bugaevc ah yeah… the ones which aren't shown at the bottom?On my side of things I always make sure there is ed as fallback, maybe even a statically-linked version of it, I know this editor well enough than I would consistently pick it instead of nano. And if I end up with a broken terminfo I know it will work (been there…).

@bugaevc relying on the tools and the context to provide you information about something; in particular, this getter naming recommendation clearly says "your IDE and parenthesis will tell you it's a getter" https://golang.org/doc/effective_go#Getters (and so forth)
