Google's reminding me of my ex wife this morning

In the needling, persistent, won't go away sort of remembering... Just got my new Dell premium widescreen monitor and now I noticed in the bottom right corner of my Eclipse development environment an icon and text to "Sign in to Google..." You can reduce it to an icon, but unlike my ex wife, I cannot make it go away. They're as pushy with this stuff now as is Adobe is on every update. I don't need a Sign into Google button at all, let alone in my development environment. Rant over, I feel (slightly) better.

Don't use Eclipse ... last time I used it it wasn't a great IDE anyway. I recommend IntelliJ IDEA for a top drawer Java IDE.

Well I don't mean to start a holy war but in my experience: - it's faster to get off the disk and hogs less memory - it's easier to integrate it with build scripts - it's easier to run and debug test cases - its static analysis ('code inspections') are better - my coworkers tell me its refactoring features are better (I don't really use those) It has good source control integration as well but I imagine Eclipse has that too. And in the case of being annoyed by prompts to sign in to the machine, it doesn't do that either!

InteliJ has a similar feel to Visual Studio while Eclipse works completely differently. For someone who does a lot of .net and only a little Java that's a big theoretical advantage. Unfortunately Eclipse is the only approved java IDE on some hardened systems I have to use (and "I don't like it" isn't sufficient grounds to justify the work to approve an alternative); and when I started doing Android programming the pain of trying to use the android stuff in anything but eclipse was worse than having to use Eclipse itself. (The latter might not be true any more; but when Google launched Android Studio based on InteliJ a year or so ago it was still an alpha quality product.) As a result I'm currently using Eclipse for all the java I do because I don't do enough of it to justify keeping how both tools work in my head. :sigh:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

I'm seeing the same thing when I visit MSDN. I find a link, click, and then get redirected through a Windows Live signin page, then wait...wait...and then I'm at the page I was after. Weird and creepy.

My favorite part of Windows 8.1? How it insists on you creating a "Microsoft Account" for every Windows Update :suss:.

The other day my ex-wife posted on FB that she found somebody she like what should I do? I guess "Leave the poor guy alone" wasn't an appropriate answer? Who woulda knowd?

I tried IntelliJ about a year or so ago and it was /okay/ but I went back to Netbeans which bugs me but at least it bugs me in a way I know.
