What a luck that I'm BI, otherwise I might take offense in this coder bashing :-DD

Do hobbyists use soldering irons anymore? Everything is breadboard and ribbon cables isn't it?

If you want to make something that actually works you need a soldering iron. How often have I had something on a shitty breadboard not work properly :palm:

Whilst sure, if you're building a kernel or designing a driver or something. But if that Pi project grows into something bigger and useful and then gets put into use somewhere, years later you might want to change a couple of lines of code, you have to setup that whole MS build env again and prolly need to figure out why bloody Code Studio wont work anymore..  |O

There is a benefit in working remote with an IDE on your main system and not the PI. Remote debugging is very easy when doing development.

I use netbeans 8.2 for basically all my coding and like it very much. The compiling is done on the PI, but the typing on the main PC. The source is copied when I press the compile button. This way it is easy to backup the source code too.

Having to use command line for compiling and debugging is tedious and not needed and luckily there are other solutions in the world besides microsoft shit.

I was thinking of asking if they drive their car with the engine revving at the redline all the time?


Just because you may be able to get away with it doesn't mean it's a good idea.
