I started as a sysadmin in 1995 and started programming not long after that. I spent most my time in a shell and vim, started writing python all in vim. Then I took on a project that was a graphical application for windows and OS X. It was a rewrite of a windows visual basic app that we did not have the source for, so now good opportunity to write a multi platform application.

I wrote that program in python/pyQt3. Started on linux (which it also ran on) decided to look at IDE's to help with pyQt I found Eric3. It made writing the first app and many after a lot easier.

So moved on from there a few years later and I use Jetbrains Pycharm commercial if I am writing anything bigger then a quick script I will do it in Pycharm.

Some of the things I like in Pycharm.

• really good vim emulation
• the linter finds code problems very well
• completion is great
• debugger is fantastic I rarely use a print to debug but it still happens
• Increase's productivity, hard to see at first.

I strongly recommend looking at IDE's start with Kdev and see where it goes also try the trial version of Jetbrains Clion. https://www.jetbrains.com/clion/

It feels like a lot of extra work to learn an IDE but it pays in productivity. Watch some videos on Clion.

The "Federation of servers" is a great way to handle this. I am surprised how will it works even in it infancy.

Long live the Federation.

That is a great example.

This is great, I subbed. I am trying to setup a server dedicated to motorcycling (r/motorcycles etc). Really like that we can setup specialty sites. Usenet 2.0
