    For me Java+Eclipse is paradise. I don't know what problems are you having, but nothing matches the autocompletion and refactoring of eclipse.

    The refactoring's good, granted, but gimme intellisense any day -- and give me menus, options, and tools that are in intuitive places, with names that tell me what they actually do! Everything is where some 14-year-old, somewhere prefers it to be! (In order of similarity to names of female pop stars, or some-such.)

      At my current job, I'm being constrained by the CEOs lack of desire in giving me access to the databases I need to see in order to even test my code. I have access to the database server, and I can see the databases, but I can't see the tables or stored procs associate with them. I found out yesterday that the 4-year old database has NEVER had maintenance run on it. The log files are over 300GB. The code I'm working on is VB. The network at work is so screwed up that I can't terminal service in or out (I can connect but the connection drops every 30 seconds or so). I got to work yesterday, and I my network connection didn't work because someone unplugged a bunch of cables in the server room. Until I got there, none of the code was in SourceSafe, but I'm adding it as I find/get it. I'm in hell.

          is this really going to turn into a "who's job sucks more?" kind of test? i can assure you the sheer volume of cases i can bring will "win" me that one... well, ok, within programming industry parameters...
