Was previously dashrb@awscommunity.social, for over two years, until it vanished one day in early 2025.

One of the things they say in this blog post is:
you know how some code editors will automatically fill in a right bracket or quote when you type a left one? You type " and the result is "|"? Yeah, that drives me up the wall. It saves no time whatsoever, and it’s wrong often enough that I **waste* time having to correct for it.*

I realized I've been fighting with this for years. They're right. It inserts a lot of characters I don't want, and I frequently spend time undoing superfluous quotes and braces.

I just went into the settings.json for Visual Studio Code and set:

"editor.autoClosingQuotes": "never",
"editor.autoSurround": "never",// When the word is selected

Based on an answer at stackoverflow.

I'll report back on whether I'm happy about this choice.

Well here's what I'm thankful for: my mom (87) just spent close to 2 days in the ER in a room by herself battling a severe anemia problem which they had to pinpoint the cause of... lots of exams etc... she gets out today with a Rx with a new and improved med protocol, another Rx to have more exams done.

Cost = $0.

Future exams $0

(Universal HC what a concept!)
