As someone who spends pretty much all working time with IngelliJ, CLion, and PyTorch... I have no idea what you're talking about. CLion is insanely fast and its autocomplete and refactoring completely outclasses all Visual Studio products. The embedded CMake is the cherry on top. Remote debugging works even with custom gdb server on custom hardware. What else could I possibly want from my IDE?

To be honest, I am not impressed. It's a good product, I bought it because I don't like the plugins fragmentation on VS code and overall it has better support for tooling, but hell, it's for me not comparable to IntelliJ for Java.

But I agree it works quite good.

> Selenium > Playwright (coming soon) Why people still use Selenium? My brief experience with it was awful.

It works? We have an extensive set of Selenium-based tests (something like 5k of them), and it's fine. Why should we switch?

I had like 50 Selenium-based tests and false-negatives were really common.

So I had to rerun tests a few times sometimes.

For selenium, "it works" is not a constant.

Not for Cypress either. I’m fairly certain it is just the nature of the beast.

I groaned when I saw JetBrains. I love their editors but they have so little focus as an organization, many editors have bugs that have been unfixed for years and they don't polish one product before they move on to the next.

Yeah they are slowly going down the Eclipse path. Things don't work as naturally anymore, mess is accumulating (on a different level, more beautiful level though).

I know people who have Java tests that sometimes work, sometimes don’t. That usually speaks for the quality of a test itself.
