    I disagree that a person with low IQ would think its possible to code using a simple text editor. If anything he needs IDE more than any one else.

      Yeah, it doesn’t fit the template but the low IQ version would be more like “You only need ChatGPT for coding.”

          I spent years using Notepad++ as my professional editor. We were a Windows shop and all of the IDEs available were much slower and buggier. It’s a surprisingly decent introduction to the idea of what a good text editor can be.

      I interpreted it more like saying the first place people learn to code, especially if you’re not self taught, is in a text editor like vim or emacs.

        I think that’s how this meme is mostly used (least knowledgeable to most) but if we are getting pedantic we have to acknowledge the axis is labeled.
