> with vms for the rest. It's called OpenVMS since quite some decades now.

Yes, as in "check the number of parsed fields for each line" and don't forget about empty fields. Throw an error and stop the program if the number of columns isn't consistent. Whi…

> For me an IDE "knows" about other files I have open and their relationship with the one I'm editing (usually a "project") and it _i_ntegrates external tools/programs. With that d…

It's not an extension. First-class modal editing via Vim bindings, including features like text objects and marks. See the "Vim-friendly" button at https://zed.dev/ , "Incredibly p…

I guess that's https://github.com/xaberus/vscode-remote-oss

To be honest, Theia (the last beta I tried some months ago) is everything people always complain about Electron apps: slow as molasses - way worse than e.g. Atom (or Pulse) (which …

I'm sorry, but what _is_ the difference between an editor and an IDE for _you_? Btw. I'm not saying that having an integrated debugger is a sufficient condition for an editor to be…

> I'd be curious what similar caveats may apply to that editor? Exactly the same as to VS Code, anything that is special about it is "closed" (as a service) https://zed.dev/blog/ze…

Everybody can do that themselves, if the original maintainers don't want to (which is a security problem ;): If you are not the author, we suggest you first reach out to the author…

There are generators for the compilation databases that work with Makefiles and other build systems, like Bear: https://github.com/rizsotto/Bear

I thought the server part of VS Code (to be exact a proprietary Node addon) is the problem? https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/issues/1229#issuecommen... Stupid me, the solution …

"Remote SSH" and "Dev Containers". https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/devcontainers/containers

Yes, their C++ LSP isn't really good and I've heard C# isn't good either - but that's because they want to sell Visual Studio too. But especially "Remote SSH" and "Dev Containers" …

> Zed exists, it's new but it's already a very good IDE. An IDE needs at least a working Debugger (or, to be more precise, a graphical interface to debugger(s)). And Zed has exactl…

The author forgot about two very important "closed" plugins: "Remote SSH" and "Dev Containers".

> strncpy strncpy had been touted the "safe strcpy alternative" for years.

It wasn't meant as an argument against not loading the interpreter, but an explanation why it is "normal" - but if course insecure - behavior for ldd to execute the configured inte…

Don't know, but on Solaris it's the samé, see section "Security" https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E88353_01/html/E37839/ldd-1.html

It's not same, as ldd does print transitive dependencies too. libtree is comparable to ldd

Dynamic dlopen calls do not appear in the ELF at all, these are "normal" function calls.

It's not about calling the app itself - that doesn't happen with ldd. ldd does not know about dlopened libraries.

Each Elf executable can have its own "interpreter" (loader, which as default is `ld-linux. so`), so without calling the configured interpreter ldd can't know about the dependencies…

But they don't actually work, because there are many ambiguities. Is is an arrow, in a all are wrong, same as in a >=> or a >>= or...

I guess that's because it is a VS Code fork.

> Yeah, but are those bugs security bugs? If the software is unusable, it doesn't matter if it has security bugs too. Or, to rephrase, the safest software is software nobody uses.
