I realized I was using "token" sloppily. Not wrong exactly, just imprecise.
This quick video separates tokens, identifiers, and symbols by layer:
📝 Text → Tokens (lexing)
🌳 Tokens → Structure (parsing)
🔗 Names → Symbols (binding)
⚡ Symbols → Values (runtime)

Multi-cursor editing in VS Code is genuinely life-changing once it clicks
🎯 Alt+Click for surgical placement
⚡ Ctrl+D grabs matching tokens one by one
🔥 Ctrl+Shift+L selects ALL occurrences
🔧 Toggle modifier key to Ctrl if Alt feels wrong

TIL after years of using Git: git archive
Creates clean zip snapshots of your repo without:
🚫 node_modules
🚫 virtual environments
🚫 .git metadata
My 180MB folder → 14MB. Perfect for uploading codebases to ChatGPT/Claude.

New video: Getting Gemini Code Assist running in VS Code
Google's copying everyone else's patterns and honestly? That's great for us. Learn it once, use it everywhere.
Fair warning: run multiple AI assistants and they WILL fight like puppies in a bag.

Claude Cowork just saved me hours of scutwork:
🔹 Bulk social posts from 20 YT videos → Buffer CSV
🔹 9-year-old conference repo → 2026 presentation
🔹 Folder-based, not chat-based
This is what real AI automation looks like.

Stop mousing around in VS Code.
The Command Palette has hidden prefix modes:
@ → symbols in current file
# → symbols across your whole project
: → jump to any line
? → shows all the options
Quick win: Remove the > caret with backspace for instant file search.

Finally got BYOK working with GitHub Copilot!
🔹 Deploy your model in Azure AI Foundry
🔹 Register API key in GitHub Enterprise
🔹 Pick it from VS Code's model selector
🔹 Fine-tuning + agentic features unlocked
Stock models are fine. YOUR models are better.

The chat UI lies to you about how LLMs actually work.
📍 START = hot zone (high recall)
📍 MIDDLE = risk zone (gets missed)
📍 END = hot zone (immediate attention)
Structure beats sprawl. Position beats length.

The catch? These aren't really "agents"—they're custom GPTs. Still useful for internal team scenarios, just know the limits.

I'm teaching context engineering, so I built a demo. Simple MCP server (~400 lines TypeScript):
• Store notes locally
• Search by relevance
• Compress to fit a character budget
Run it in VS Code with Copilot. Clone it, break it, learn from it.

Microsoft has 3 paths for building agents and most orgs pick wrong:
🔹 M365 Copilot agents = glorified custom GPTs
🔹 Copilot Studio = where real power lives
🔹 Azure Foundry = nuclear option
They're layers, not competitors. Start low-code.

Case studies on Microsoft cert exams stress everyone out — until you have a system.
My 4-step strategy:
→ Skim for theme (90 sec max)
→ Find the callback hint in each question
→ Targeted tab search
→ Match and answer, keep moving
Work smarter, not harder.

#codebase → context variable (sculpts what it sees)
@workspace → chat participant (adds LLM reasoning)
Most devs use them interchangeably. They're not.
