As you might know, in 2024, JetBrains company added a full line code completion in IDEs. This code completion feature is based on the Machine-Learning (ML) mechanism and increases the development speed drastically. However, sometimes there are situations where we don’t want to see any suggestions. Especially when we are deliberately practicing or doing programming katas. So, let’s find out how to disable it temporarily.

The world of software is full of surprises, and I’m not just talking about Easter eggs. Even the programs that people use every day have a lot of hidden possibilities that people are not aware of. Recently, I discovered that Google Chrome has a Command Menu with some very useful built-in commands. Let’s find out how to use it and what it gives us.

As the security support for PHP 8.0 recently finished, it’s time to move forward and update my projects, including the open-source ones. The silver lining in all of this is that I can finally switch to attributes in tests. I think the attributes are better and have some advantages over annotations. So, let’s do it, but let’s try to do it as fast as possible with the power of Vim.

Vim is an incredible tool. Sometimes, it allows us to do the same things in a very different ways. Recently, I’ve found a shorter way to yank (in other words to copy) a whole file.

I like things to be organized, especially when it comes to things that I use every day. After the last update, the date format in IntelliJ IDEA was reset to the default settings. I found it because logs in the Git tool started to look unusual to me. This is a short tip on how to set up a date formatting in this IDE.

Recently, I had an interesting case where the power of Vim, especially macros, really shines. Let's start an adventure and dig deeper into this interesting and fascinating world.

If you ever found yourself in a situation where your IntelliJ IDEA (or any other JetBrains product, I guess) was accidentally closed with all the projects at once – this tip is for you.

Sometimes, it is necessary to remove a workspace path from the launcher in Eclipse. In the Intellij IDEA this is a trivial task, but in Eclipse this task may require some steps.
