I don’t know what sort of insane nerd echo chamber you have to be in to think that MBA-ification means “adding rich text editing features to a text editor”.
replyYou’ve heard legitimate complaints about “MBAs” but very clearly lack the knowledge to identify those problems on your own.
> "adding rich text editing features to a text editor”
replyYeah, we already had that. In the form of Wordpad. Which was EOL'd. And now we have Notepad with AI features.
Notepad was, and always should have been, a simple & lightweight text box for storing and editing text only files. If you wanted to edit something more complicated, you could use the other tool that was built into Windows specifically for that.
I assume there's like a single manager who's job it was was to maintain notepad and force use of AI, so obviously, vibe code needless features because if it's not broke, how can you fix it with AI.
