André Polykanine<p>Question about <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/VSCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VSCode</span></a>, does anyone know? Before, when I pressed Ctrl+shift+E, I was brought to the Explorer tree in the location of the currently opened file. Now it's kinda random. Is it a bug or is there a setting somewhere? Very annoying.</p>
Andreas (82mhz)<p>Any <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>python</span></a> developers using <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/vscode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vscode</span></a> here? </p><p>I'm trying to get the pylance extension installed, which as far as I understand is needed to get intellisense autocomplete to work properly. </p><p>I installed the extension ms-python which should install pylance automatically, but it doesn't. When I search for pylance in marketplace, it doesn't show up in marketplace. So it seems pylance isn't available in the marketplace? But it shows up here: <a href="https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.vscode-pylance" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">marketplace.visualstudio.com/i</span><span class="invisible">tems?itemName=ms-python.vscode-pylance</span></a></p><p>Running the suggested command 'ext install ms-python.vscode-pylance' doesn't do anything except bring up the marketplace tab, where the extension doesn't show up.</p><p>So... what do I do? How do I get this extension installed? </p><p>If it helps, I'm on Linux, here's the output of the "About" command from Code:</p><p>Version: 1.101.2<br>Commit: 2901c5ac6db8a986a5666c3af51ff804d05af0d4<br>Date: 2025-06-25T19:40:00.687Z<br>Electron: 35.7.1<br>ElectronBuildId: undefined<br>Chromium: 134.0.6998.205<br>Node.js: 22.16.0<br>V8: 13.4.114.21-electron.0<br>OS: Linux x64 6.15.6-arch1-1</p>
🌱 Alyssa 🏳️‍🌈<p>I feel like this is such an obvious thing for code editors, but can't find it in any of mine (Rider, <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/vscode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vscode</span></a> etc).</p><p>I can move the cursor down with down arrow, or I can scroll the page down with ctrl + down arrow. Why can't I do both?</p><p>i.e. a button to scroll down a line and reposition the cursor to it stays in the same place on my screen.</p><p>Otherwise I scroll the cursor off the screen and when I start typing it's not where I'm looking at.</p><p>Obvious feature needed right?</p>

André Polykanine<p>The <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Zed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Zed</span></a> text editor (<a href="https://zed.dev" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">zed.dev</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>) finally opened early access program for their <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> builds. I suggest everyone from the <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a> dev community to sign up for it, hopefully (maybe!) we will be able to shape its accessibility. Many sighted people from the Apple land praise it for speed and amount of useful functions. I won't quit using <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/VSCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VSCode</span></a> of course, but why not to have another tool in the box?</p>
chesheer<p>The more I think about it, the more it seems to me that in this day and age with all the modern threats having a text editor that is capable to not only connect to the Internet, but also install some code packages from repositories (and probably do dependency resolving) is a recipe to catastrophe. Sooner or later.<br>It's probably one thing when you use a curated list of half a dozen addons that you can even personally peruse (or even contribute to). It's a whole other thing when you use some huge "distro" with probably hundreds of packages that also receive constant updates you cannot possibly control.<br>It's mostly about <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Emacs</span></a>, of course, but <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vim</span></a> is fully capable of it too. I won't even mention the likes of <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/VSCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VSCode</span></a>.<br>We had a fair share of supply chain attacks in the recent years (npm, pip, even xz in some way). No reason to think no one's gonna use this channel of attack.<br>Maybe it's just my fibs. But there is some uneasy feeling about the fact that you edit, perhaps, extremely private, personal or sensitive texts while your editor runs some background code doing who knows what. It's one thing to trust people who wrote vim or Emacs and a whole other thing to trust a hundred other unknown parties at the same time.</p>
