> As a vim user, esc is pretty important. Would it not be possible to map the dynamic touchbar keys to Esc when one is using vim?
During the demo, they showed an Esc key in the touch bar when using Terminal and a few other apps

I'm 99% sure the escape key will be there when in Terminal.app, I also imagine terminals like iTerm2 will have some really sweet TouchBar options to make it even better with all your console apps.
Apple may prove me wrong with the ergonomics of the TouchBar, but I've yet to find a virtual button that I've liked as much as a physical button.

As a vim user, esc is pretty important. I would say the author clearly knows very little computer specs: "The MacBook Pro had options with 2.4 gigahertz dual-core processors back in 2010. Anything new in 2016? Not really, well… nope." Because a 2010 2.4ghz dual core is identical to a 2016 2.4 ghz dual core.... I thought we got over comparing processors purely by their clock speed a long time ago. (I will agree that t…
What does an external keyboard give you that you can't get from a laptop keyboard? I like the macbook pro keyboard. I plug in two monitors and I'm good to go. Vim users should remap somewhere closer. I use cap locks. Will that not be possible anymore?

I nearly exclusively use VIm and any other editor I use has a VIm mode plugin installed. I pretty much can't work productively in anything else. I can tell you that I haven't used Esc in ages. I have Caps Lock mapped to Ctrl (as it is a vastly more useful a key than Esc and Caps Lock is a much better position for it and is just as an extraneous as Esc is). I use Ctrl-C or Ctrl-[ to exit insert mode and it works just…
I don't even know what commands would use the ESC key?

ctrl-[ works as escape. Also, what kind of devs don't get to customize their setup??
You'd be surprised. Some corporate environments keep machines pretty locked down in terms of what you can change in the System Preferences, or install on your own.
If for some reason you "can't" add a .vimrc file to a user account then you probably shouldn't be manually logging into that user account.
16-gigabit packages are slowly arriving on the market, but I imagine it'll be a couple more years before they're available at the right speed and sufficient quality/quantity to include in a future MBP model.

I'm not suggesting you do this, for legal reasons blah blah blah, but putting together a hackintosh is pretty easy these days if you really like osx.
If you can run Linux not sure what's the ultimate benefit of OSX (from a pure development standpoint).
I am now considering a Hackintosh. Don't want to put in too much time maintaining it though so still not sure about it.

Not only is it possible, but Apple supports mapping Caps Lock to Escape by default as of macOS Sierra 10.12.1: https://i.imgur.com/2oMcDRg.jpg

You can, starting from Xcode 6
In Xcode 8 you can't. They briefly had it as a feature but it has never worked properly and is not supported. EDIT: It was also using Wi-Fi, not Bluetooth.
