					Well now, I wouldn't want to mention anyone specific since talking about someone behind their back and calling them 'weird' isn't very nice. 🙄 But absolutely HYPOTHETICALLY speaking, if I HAD a weird coworker, they would probably...
 - ... strut about the office, telling all how great yet underpaid their work is
 - ... write lots of 'concepts' because coding is for lowly programmers
 - ... insist that the code they have to do when boss is looking is simply too complicated for unit testing, and 'that's great!'
 - ... brag about their/wear to work a ridiculous array of ties in every colour imaginable, when everyone else shows up casual
 
 - ... trap people into listening to them talk for hours about...
 -- ... ties
 -- ... their misspent youth
 -- ... how awesome they are/were/will be
 -- ... why it's a good idea to eat cheese
 
 - ... never let me forget I'm female, coz *insert BS reasons why all devs must by nature be male here*
 - ... send me little unsolicited notes and mails with funny (sexist) jokes *har har*
 
 - ... be let go, at which point everyone else discovers why they had so much time that they could spend chatting away at the watering hole
 - ... earn the eternal hatred of anyone picking up the pieces of their 'work'
 - ... try to steal our customers away who will laugh in their bloody face
 
 Just my theory, of course..3

 Next thing I'm ranting about is, again, the fact that I have to spell colour like "color" 😤😤😤

					Ladies and gentlemens, my everyday workstation.. at work.
 
 i5-5300 2,30Ghz, 8gb ram and 128ssd. Bloated external screen with low resolution and even lower colour saturation.
 
 Running VM, handling big as images, editing and a tiny bit coding.. and they wonder why I'm asking for a new setup..

					I found the best text editor for basic code fixing
 
 For a couple of days, I was looking for a simple terminal-based text editor for taking simple code notes or basic code fixing kinds of stuff.
 
 As an aspiring developer, I really like the concept of coding without touching the mouse.
 
 So I downloaded the king of CLI text editors, Vim.
 
 Now, guess what happened.
 
 Yeah, you're right. I stuck inside vim and couldn't even quit from there.
 
 Then, I started watching a bunch of tutorials and started reading vim's documentation.
 
 But then I realized, I have to learn a lot of things only to operate vim and it's a pretty lengthy process.
 
 At that time, I really needed a very simple text editor for doing basic stuff.
 
 But, vim is not simple... you know :)
 
 So, I had to come back to 'nano' & I was not happy enough to write codes by using 'nano'.
 
 Suddenly, I discovered another really cool text editor called 'micro'.
 
 It's really awesome.
 
 It's not as advanced as vim but definitely a lot better than nano.
 
 Micro is an open-source command-line text editor created by Zachary Yedidia.
 
 Some basic key points of Micro:
 1. It's really easy to operate.
 2. It has different colours and highlights.
 3. It supports syntaxes for over 70+ programming languages.
 4. It has mouse support.
 5. Plugins & colour schemes.
 
 The best thing for me is colour schemes & screen split support.
