Sorry, not saying you are but man MS is guerilla marketing VSCode like I've never seen in an opensource developer product.
Re: Visual Studio Code 1.9
#33Another great release! Maybe I'm just squarely within the target audience of VSCode, but I'm consistently impressed by how many of my pain points just magically go away with each new iteration.
I come from WebStorm, Sublime and Atom. Atom and WebStorm felt rather clunky. Sublime was super fast, but somehow lacked behind in new features. VSCode is a revelation for me :)
I had to move off WebStorm after the sheer amount of memory it used to chew up.
Agree - VSCode is such a good IDE, I'm constantly seeing it replace editors other devs have relied on for some time.

Or maybe it's a good product? Occam's Razor and all that.

Do you have any proof that it is astroturfing and not just genuine enthusiasm?
I am almost a lifelong vi user, but have been using Visual Studio Code last few months because it's Rust experience is smooth. (Though Emacs seems to do well as well.)

#37How many people work on VSCode?
Re: Visual Studio Code 1.9
#38This is an off topic, but I just learned from the article that PowerShell will soon be the default in place of cmd.exe in Windows 10. I welcome this change as I found the experience of using PS was superior to that of bash/zsh in general cases.
But I hope they figured out the performance problem. As of writing, in the stable version of Windows 10, PS is perceptually slower than cmd, so I was forced to use PS only when needed. Funnily it was even slower in Windows 8, so the current affair is better than ever. But to be truly a default I think the performance of PS should at least match that of cmd.exe.

This is the only product on HN I've ever seen where "This is great!" is all over the place and never downvoted. Almost every single product on HN that makes it to the front page is full of flamewars and grumps. I should post the sentiment scores. Its a serious outlier.

Just that the sentiment scores of comments blow everything else out of the water. Haven't done one in a month or two though.
