A coworker has told me that in a previous job, he was talking to an intern and mentioned IRC and intern asked what was that. He told him that it is the "old instant messaging", which another senior coworker overheard and chimed in that "no, IRC is the new messaging thing".
If someone would be asking be what netbean is, I'd say "an IDE from the old generation of editors", but I guess that is all relative :D
That's the thing: I do feel vscode being slow. On my work machine, it's fine - it takes about two seconds to open a project from start. But on my older laptop, that's a solid 10 sec before I can start editing.
