Jetbrains IntelliJ. I use it for html, JS, CSS, Vue, node.js, Python, Java, SQL, etc. I’ve tried visual studio and some other IDEs, but find intellij to be superior in every way.
Wow.. I hate it... the quality of IntelliJ has really fallen. I've been using it for like 5 years now and I'm constantly fighting it There are literally 20-40 serious bugs that impact me daily.
Trace32 & the Lauterbach JTAG. Expensive, but intuitive, scriptable, and performant.
Funny but I had the exact opposite experience with it back when I worked in the space like 10 years ago. The software was clunky and borderline unusable, every bit of the system was proprietary (I remember we had to pay $10K a pop for connector cables, which each came with their own limited license), support was clueless, and there was no ecosystem to speak of (again due to their tight controls).

I rarely use the search, but when I do I've never noticed it to not find what I know is there. Perhaps it is crap and there are many other hits its not returning for my searches - can you give an example of a bad search result you got?
It only does full-exact-word searches. If a word is written in a slightly different form or you write only a part of it, it won't find it.
Both have excellent UIs and they are truly powerful.
Avoid any Graffana based solutions, the only good thing I can say about them is that they are free.
1) nimbletext. when clients send me excel sheets with tons of data to import i would generate insert statements in the sheets themselves. this is a painful experience. Then i found out about nimbletext. its pure joy to use. 2) jailer. I'm a visual kind of guy. so this makes database analysis very easy. 3) onenote. if only it had Linux app i would use it for personal use. 4) visual studio 2019. customized to the bone…
What kind of customization do you do to VS 2019 to make it more productive?
2) snippets designer plugin. enjoy snippet creation
3) macros. crashes most of the time tho. sometimes im too lazy to pop a terminal and type my git alias so here we are.
4) disable some features to increase loading time. (lots of articles around)
there are others but these are my top 4

I don't think anyone would call Autohotkey "enterprise".

These tools are nice. Please share your other tools as well.
2) ulauncher (for linux), executor (for windows). oh how i love just typing "az 12345" and it shows my azure devops bug in chrome.
3) obs studio. when i want to force myself to focus i record myself doing the tasks and talking my way through it. give it a try
im away from my computer so this is just some of the things i remember

P3X OneNote will scratch the Linux OneNote itch, or just run it in a browser tab. Better than nothing.

How does it compare to Honeycomb?
Honeycomb has one trick that it does very well, the high dimensionality analysis. Other than that Honeycomb doesn't do a lot, their alerting is basic, their dashboards are basic, etc. Datadog doesn't do that specific feature as well (it has alternatives), but it also has so many other features that all tie together very nicely: metrics, logging, events, very good dashboards, analysis notebooks, alerting, SLOs, perfor…
I’m somewhat familiar with monitoring/telemetry but haven’t heard that term before.
* Looker (most usable BI tool I’ve come across so far) * DataDog (distributed tracing is a dream) * IntelliJ (idea, goland, pycharm, clion, datagrip) * MindNode (macOS-only mind-mapping software) Recently started using smart sheets, but on the fence about this one so far.
What do you use distributed tracing for? We have DataDog but only use metrics (no APM) and I don't really see what justifies the high price compared to Prometheus/Grafana. I have investigated introducing distributed tracing with Istio and Jaeger but right now it doesn't seem that useful to me.
