    There's a brilliant plugin that emulates sublime's way of doing it. https://github.com/terryma/vim-multiple-cursors There's probably a way to do it using vim's default behaivour but this is easy and it works well for me.

  • Tools that keep me productive
    14 projects | dev.to | 5 May 2024
    It all starts with the editor. Visual Studio Code (VS Code) is my go-to editor. I was using the Insider’s Edition for the longest time, but some extensions would try to log in and redirect to VS Code regular edition, so I decided to go back to it. That said, VS Code Insider's is very stable.

  • Asynchronous Programming in C#
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Apr 2024
    C# is very good as a language, have developed in it for 5+ years. The problem is the gap between what MSFT promises to management and actually delivers to developers. You really really need to fully read the fine print, think of the omissions in documentation and implement a proof-of-concept that almost implements the full solution to find out the hidden gotchas.

    For example, even probably their best product VS Code only got reasonable multiple screens support last year: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecommen...

    And then, on the other end of the spectrum, you have Teams.
