2015-01-28 15:33:30 dimadima    anyone here edit java with vim?
2015-01-28 15:33:37 surial  dimadima: only complete blithering idiots.
2015-01-28 15:33:45 dimadima    hmm
2015-01-28 15:33:56 surial  vim is a great editor, but it's not intelligent, and java is a language that is extremely suitable to intelligent editing.
2015-01-28 15:34:04 surial  In fact, you could go so far as to say that you NEED it to keep your sanity.
2015-01-28 15:34:06 dimadima    i edit java with vim and i'm enjoying it well enough so far
2015-01-28 15:34:14 dimadima    my one problem is that syntax highlighting
2015-01-28 15:34:17 freeone3000 Java IDEs are intelligent so Java developers don't have to be.
2015-01-28 15:34:27 freeone3000 dimadima: That's the one thing vim *does* do for Java code.
2015-01-28 15:34:27 surial  dimadima: have you _used_ an intelligent editor?
2015-01-28 15:34:50 dimadima    for me it makes lambdas red bg/white text, looking like an error
2015-01-28 15:34:51 surial  dimadima: because if not, that holds as much water as someone who has never had a pair of shoes in his whole life that 'I get along well on socks so far'.
2015-01-28 15:35:19 dimadima    so, anyone know of any alternative `.snytax`s available, because i'm not finding anything on google
2015-01-28 15:35:26 surial  dimadima: update your vim spec thingie; it is not JDK8 compatible. I'm going to call this 'surial's law'...
2015-01-28 15:35:54 dimadima    surial: not aware of any update, that's why i'm posting here 
2015-01-28 15:36:03 surial  dimadima: whenever you are doing a thing that is fundamentally silly / not sensible / idiotic, then you run into the issue that all the smart people simply aren't doing it. That means libraries, tutorials, and advice that you do receive on this topic, is by definition authored by an idiot.
2015-01-28 15:37:18 dimadima    dude chill out
2015-01-28 15:37:26 surial  dimadima: now, vim zealots take their zealotry to epic heights, so you might find something, but I wouldn't be surprised.
2015-01-28 15:37:46 surial  dimadima: oh, you're one of them. Who added /ignore to the IRC protocol? I need to give them a couple of upvotes.
2015-01-28 15:37:58 dimadima    lol
