Using a language you don't know

I strongly disagree. You have to learn new languages. Of course don't try to learn everything, but keep learning whenever you can. If you can learn something new - go for it.

Only coding in your IDE

So time is of essence, but go ahead and write code without autocomplete? Double standards anyone?

"Why do we we need to do X?" or "How do you know Y?"

Or maybe simply asking why and trying to figure out how you are thinking? And honestly how often am I suppose to change my job according to you? In my 25+ years carreer I changed my job less than 10 times and why would I if I'm happy with my job?
