This article is a mix of good advice, terrible advice, and conflicting advice. Statements like "Avoid using language extensions and libraries that do not play well with your IDE." are foolish. Pick your language primarily on the best fit of the language for the problem space, second, pick a language that you're comfortable with and knowledgeable about. Picking the wrong tool simply because it works well with another tool, is horrible advice.
