You might give Notepad++ a try and see how well it compares to VS.

 
What?!? You’re not saying a piece of third-party software might be
preferable to Microsoft’s own, are you??

 
I would never say that.  Everything MS has ever produced is the best.
No exceptions.

"Microsoft Bob was listed seventh in PC World magazine's list of the 25
worst tech products of all time[16] and as the number-one worst product of
the decade by CNET.com.[17] It was also listed among the 50 worst
inventions in Time magazine, which called Bob "overly cutesy" and an
"operating system designed around Clippy."[18] Microsoft's Steve Ballmer
mentioned Bob as an example in which "we decided that we have not
succeeded and let's stop [now]."[19]"

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
