ed is the standard editor.
Bah, a magnetised needle and a steady hand is the one true way to edit code on your prod system.
Excuse me, but real programmers use butterflies.
Hah, still relying on butterflies? Real programmers simply use the starting conditions of the universe to understand where their program will spontaneously compile
I used to have my local environment synced to prod. Saving meant deployed.
Everything was feature flagged by default, we never broke production in years. That was early 2010s.
That’s non standard though.
