Do other devs just open up multiple vs code windows for each project or something?
I can't stand not being able to run everything in the same window with ctrl P picking up files from across projects as a reference.
I feel like I'm the odd one out because I've noticed a lot of languages and Lang servers are making these assumptions about how devs work and organise code.
Or they're just being perfectionist opinionated twats.
I'd print off a piece of legacy code that was particularly ugly and ask them to review it.
I'd tell them I wasn't looking for silly stuff like parser errors and instead was just looking for their opinion on the code. How they thought it worked and how they would improve or do it differently.
It was mostly just an interview prompt with a consistent starting point that lead to interesting insights about the interviewee but generally had repeated talking points across candidates.
