> I don't know about you, but my toolkit, which I'm perfecting, is programming language paradigms, design patterns, algorithms, programming language SDKs, popular libraries and frameworks, etc. Well that's great but none of that gets anything done. You need to be able to write programs effectively. > At some point your hammer is good enough and your saw is sharp enough. Yeah. I don't regularly invest many hours into emacs. You asked how many hours went into it. Over the past 15 years it's countless hours. Over the past year, not many at all. |

:-)) Of course it does. Most of my time isn't spent in actually writing the programs. It's in reading and understanding what they do, how to best modify them, debugging issues, etc.
I'd guess I spend about 10% of my time, at most, actually editing characters.
