I think the colors resemble more Sublime Text's default theme. Here, by the way: http://i.imgur.com/FYce2kD.jpg

Yeh, I think it's definitely looking more like Sublime Text.

Wouldn't sublime have that scroller on the side with the preview of the entire file?

Or do real 1337 people turn that off? Can you even turn that off? Yeah, I've used Sublime twice I think.

I've looked and looked for ages about how to turn that preview off... I don't think so.

Language bashing is what characterizes our industry. I have the dream that one day we will recognize languages as the tool they are and be mature enough to chose tools by utility and not by hype, hipness or pop culture and see there benefits and limitations.

I have the dream that one day we will recognize languages as the tool they are We do. They're just terrible tools. Do you think other industries don't criticize their tools? Hell, they have full magazines and reports reviewing and grading them. The idea that all languages/tools are created equal and just have different use cases is nonsense.

Criticizing tools is excellent. Deciding about their benefits and limitations, learning about when to use them and when not to use them. Sharing experiences so people can make better choices.

Criticism in this way is rare though. Bashing a language to be cool, be part of the hip crowd, make you feel better about your own choices, bashing languages for karma or laughs, bashing languages you have no experience in comparing it with a language you've used for some weeks is not criticism.

Does it help others? If it does, it is criticism. If it doesn't and only makes you feel good after posting, it's not.

[Edit] And the really sad part is that people make language arguments into people arguments, stereotyping people to make themselves feel better.

In your settings file:

     "show_minimap": false
Or, choose Hide Minimap from the View menu.

It doesn't feel like it's enterprise enough to be realistic. class TwoBaconRashersInsideTwoSlicesOfBreadFactory { /* Make a sandwich * * Construct a foodstuff consisting of two slices * of bread with two slices of bacon. * @return TwoBaconRashersInsideTwoSlicesOfBread a sandwich */ Public TwoBaconRashersInsideTwoSlicesOfBread getSandwich () { BaconRasherFactory pig = new BaconRasherFactory(); BaconRasherInstance baco…

Hmm... how about...

@Service public class SandwichFactoryImpl implements SandwichFactory {

	    @Autowired
	    public EmptySandwichFactory emptySandwichFactory;

	    @Autowired
	    public FoodComponentFactoryFactory foodComponentFactoryFactory;

	    @Override
	    public Sandwich makeSandwich(Collection foodComponentDescriptions) {

	        Sandwich sandwich = emptySandwichFactory.newSandwich();

	        for (FoodComponentDescription foodComponentDescription : foodComponentDescriptions) {
	            FoodComponentFactory foodFactory = foodComponentFactoryFactory.getFactory(foodComponentDescription.getType());

	            for (int i = 0; i  components = Lists.newArrayList();

	        components.add(new FoodComponentDescription(FoodType.BREAD, 1));
	        components.add(new FoodComponentDescription(FoodType.BACON, 2));
	        components.add(new FoodComponentDescription(FoodType.BREAD, 1));

	        return makeSandwich(components);
	    }

	}

Learning never to use them is just as legitimate.
