Of course. The most useful ones are the following: - Bracket Pair Colorizer - EditorConfig for VS Code - ESLint - Git Blame - Material Icon Theme - Path Intellisense - Prettier - Code Formatter - SCSS IntelliSense - TSLInt - Winter is Coming Theme by John Papa
Emmet.
So far only visual studio (not code) can do it properly, and one which name I forget. I posted issues everywhere about it. I'm still disappointed, or it might be difficult to implement.
Honest question: can someone explain why everyone loves emoji these days, especially with regards to 'modern' programming communities such as those around JS and Rust? Is it just a celebration of the fact that we have Unicode support everywhere now?
I think the goal is adding a sense of lightheartedness and by humanizing code in general, which has historically had the perception of being dry.
I see a GIF of someone going deleting a couple lines of code, with a meter showing that the application is maintaining 60 FPS. Was this not something Atom could do before? It seems to me that the bare minimum should be maintaining 60 FPS while performing basic editing tasks…is there some nuance here I'm missing?

I am curious about your situation that causes you to edit files remotely. I've never had to edit files anywhere but my local file system. Are you developing or is it more of a devops/sysadmin kind of role?
I have to do it all the time cause I want to develop on a VM that matches the target platform for my project. Usually involves figuring out how to debug things. My solution is to install VS Code on remote system and use X forwarding depending on project. I also use PyCharm Pro so in such case I use Vagrant and it does its thing but it syncs awfully as OP mentions so debugging can become extremely painful idk why JetB…
My current solution is just SSH/Vim but I think I'd like to go back to a graphical editor. I like Vim but sometimes it's a hassle on the big projects.
I haven't used Atom for at least an year and a half now - After trying out Visual Studio Code I haven't looked back. Has the performance improved? Is it at the level of VS Code?
I've bounced back and forth between Atom and VSCode - the main reason for me has been bugginess with prettier plugins. I've had more weird issues with the VSCode one, so I've leaned more on Atom. Perf for VSCode is definitely much better though.

Emojis are the new punctuation marks. Displaying emotions in written text started at some point with the exclamation mark, which over time evolved and shifted in meaning. At some point !!! become a different meaning then a single !, and !? was added too. But then someone developed the smilie and the 90's was all about :-) and ;-> and sometimes even =^o^=. But it was kinda hard to write on mobile devices and took too…

I find the whole trend very childish and unprofessional. Why? Because emojis don't convey much meaning and borders on child-talk, worst yet, they're very vague and so makes for very poor and unprofessional form of communication.
I can't really see how emojis are "vague", or ambiguous. And even if: ambiguity is a great feature in any form of communication, by allowing us, for example, to express criticism early and subtle, defusing social problems before they blow up. I also think you're placing to much value on some vague notion of "professionalism" which seems to exclude all emotion and any fun. "Professionalism" in this sense stymies busin…

I am baffled by your assertion that they convey little meaning. Do facial expressions also convey little meaning? To me the combination of both gives a hell of a lot more to base interpretation of tone on.
2. What about emoji's that aren't faces, or that have taken on a different meaning (see, eggplant or that infernal clapping emoji that's taken over twitter)
