10x engineers avoid innovative, feature rich editors like VSCode.

They also would never develop on any platform that use custom IDEs like mobile app dev.


And seriously, the notion that great engineers don't communicate with the rest of the team is ridiculous.

On the other hand, I'm feeling like the joke is sort of on all of us for getting so worked up over such a trolling set of tweets (intentional or not)

Beyond ridiculous. I also think is actually for the best, it not only showed that the community is very supportive and responsive but that as a whole most of tech is moving STRONGLY against a lot of these toxic stereotypes, patronizing and pretenses.
