This is in quincy, less than a mile from the red line train stop quincy center, I feel like your argument of "can't build transit" is in bad faith here.
VSCode is the best code editor around, the plugin ecosystem is phenomenal, copilot specifically has been the biggest boost to my output in 15 years of development.
Unfortunately it doesn't do everything, I got stuck with some really old legacy software and have to hop into the vb6 ide, code::blocks, and very rarely visual studio.
