I’m a coffee first frontend engineer at Stage+, creator of React Styleguidist, and award-losing photographer. Learning to cook at https://tacohuaco.co.
The effect of AI on my blog: from 900 clicks per month down to 200 in the last two years...
My Code setup has nothing except the source code and the file name in the window title (and I’d love to hide that annoying icon next to the file name).
(1) New agents/editor toggle that’s not useful for me but very distracting, and cannot be disabled.
I have a need for a non-distracting environment, and unfortunately current UX trends disrespect this need: use of extremely-saturated bright colors, no or very limited theming, no ability to hide distracting UI elements, and, instead, adding new ones sometimes after every other update.

One very annoying habit of Claude Code 4.5 model is that it tries to replace `foo === false` with `!foo` and claim that it's (a) not the same; and (b) will fix any issue I complain about.
It’s incredible how many things AI agents do right, and it’s incredible how often they can’t solve a certain issue at all. Here’s just a little gem from Copilot.
Suddenly, I got Copilot autocompletion in my Outlook on macOS, and there seem to be no way to turn it off. It makes it totally impossible for me to write even the most basic email — the completions appear too fast and distracts me with mostly unrelated suggestions.
Here, Microsoft is basically saying that you cannot have a verified domain on Visual Studio Code Marketplace as an indie developer. I _do_ have links to my extensions right on the homepage, but apparently it's not enough anymore.
I used to have a verified domain, but at some point Microsoft quietly removed the verification badge from my extensions. Since then, I'm trying to get it verified again, and this is the first answer I got in several years. And it doesn't make any sense.
How do you format JSX comments?
