I apologize I didn’t mean to offend anyone. I get your point ai guess I was not looking at the bigger picture. I’m not usually a very judgemental person . I guess what I was thinking is is that of course someone is a developer if they use any or all text editors or IDEs and that it was strange anyone would think otherwise. My bad

Dan,

Apology accepted.

Conveying emotion and meaning is tough in text-based communications. The meaning we intended is sometimes lost because the reader cannot hear our tone of voice or inflection so they will insert their own. Not knowing you or the way you communicate, I read your response in the tone of voice I have come to expect from a stranger on the Internet. For that, I apologize. I shouldn't have assumed hostile intent.

Thanks for taking the time to come back and clarify what you meant.
