How to get rid of that annoying text box that appears after an autocomplete inside of which VSCode's intellisense does not work?

I'm coding Golang in the screenshot. This box only appears after an auto-complete of a function or a struct happens and inside it the intellisense simply will not work.
How can I get rid of it? It's really bothering me and taking my time away in a somehow useless way because I just want to make use of the auto-complete but I have to press esc two times to turn off this box.
I couldn't reproduce your problem. I tried with Code 1.41.1 and ms-vscode.go plugin version 0.12.0 on a Mac.
BUT, I found this issue on vscode that works for me.
Basically, add the following to your settings. "editor.parameterHints": false

Visual Studio for Mac - Autocomplete doesnt work anymore since mfractor

Im using Visual Studio Community 2017 for Mac.
I installed mfractor. Ever since I installed it my autocompletion in xaml does not work anymore and I do not know how to fix it. I tried to disable mfractor and I even uninstalled it but nothing helped. Two Examples:
Before I could type <SL after the very first character S I was able to see a few options to autocomplete. After writing the two characters SL I could autocomplete it to StackLayout. Not anymore. I dont see a list for autocompletion. I have to manually type every single char and I will never see a list for autocomplete options.
When typing <StackLayout> after typing > there was another autocomplete that I could choose </StackLayout. Well not anymore. I have to type everything myself.
Does anyone know something about this problem and maybe even know how to fix it?
After restarting the Mac and VS, uninstalling/disabling mfractor a few teams I had to realize that nothing worked.
But I accidentally found a way to fix it. I created a few Forms ContentPage XAML files in hope of that fixing something and got this message: You´ve reached your limit of two MFractor-enabled XAML files for today. Upgrade to Mfractor Professional for unlimited use.
Since then my autocompletion works again. Even with Mfractor enabled.

get to bottom of page in Chrome with Keyboard-shortcut

I used to get to the bottom of a webpage by pressing CMD+Keydown. Did they remove this shortcut or is it just me?
I know this used to work not too long ago and it's not working since one of the newer versions... (currently Version 31.0.1650.57)
CMD+Keyup still works just fine.
So I finally got around the problem:
An extension I was using got some automatic update, in this it used CMD+Keydown as a shortcut for the extension, which overwrote the default behavior.
The problem hereby was, that the programmer was not done, so he "seized" the shortcut, but was not using it for anything.
Now after more than 2 months, after an other automatic update, the shortcut triggered something in this extension, so I could find out what was causing the shortcut not to work.
Then I just disabled that shortcut for said extension. All working now :D

Automatically fetch links with Sublime Text?

This is kind of a random question, but in Textmate, there was a really nice feature. You could highlight a URL, press a keyboard shortcut, and it would automatically create for you.
I just searched tirelessly for about a half hour trying to find a similar package that would do it, but I can't seem to think of what search term to even look for. Anyone know off the top of their head a package that does this? I really loved that feature; it would hit the other website, grab the title attribute, and drop it in for you.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
I don't think you can do that easily with standard sublime abilities. But I've found a package that is inspired by Textmate and it's called HyperlinkHelper.
Simply install via PackageControl, restart sublime and you are ready to go. The default keyboard shortcut for generating a hyperlink out of the current selection is STRG+ALT+L. Tested it in sublime 2 and works perfectly.

Xcode Editor Messing Up

I'm having some trouble with Xcode. A lot of times I'll just be typing code in, and then something will suddenly happen that screws up how the text displays on the page. Sometimes it will cut off the first characters of some lines. Other times, especially when I'm typing near the bottom (I notice it occurs when it tries to do some autocomplete but I type over it) it will not display the bottom text (like the #end) and won't take anymore text input properly.
If I quit and restart, the file displays properly again until it happens another time. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? I just tried reinstalling Xcode, but even after doing that I still have the same problem.
This problem is really annoying because I often have to quit and restart constantly, and sometimes it's scary because it looks like I've lost the code that I've typed in.
A couple of suggestions:
make sure you're using the latest version of Xcode (3.2.1)
rather than quit and restart, try just saving and closing the file's window and then re-open it
The real solution to this problem is close quick help.
Turns out "Quick Help" causes alot of issues with codesense.
If you close it your troubles are gone. It will work fine once you reopen it... for a while. Then it will begin messing up again.
I used to leave quick help up 24/7 so this happened frequently. I have seen other reports of this being the cause on a few other sites. Aven on this very same site. (stackoverflow)
