I was discussing "work you have to do to setup and actually understand your development tool chain in C as well as C++", and I mentioned IDEs' easy of use. Then you came along saying that the command line is the way for "everyone who programs in 2022"... which is clearly the opposite. If you don't want to see that... I'm sorry but this conversation doesn't have a point.

And you mentioned "boomers" so I know exactly with who I am talking to.

My ego walks away unharmed from this conversation.
