What annoys you while coding?

Hi, Dev community. Do you want to discuss what or who annoys you while working? Maybe someone has some ideas on how to solve these problems.

Let me start. In the process of working, I am very annoyed by DM messages or numerous mentions in conversations along with notifications.

What about you? Don't be scared. I'm sure, it's a great theme for a conversation.

Lots of commented out code that have been there forever for no reason whatsoever.

Unused packages in package.json

[Matvey Romanov]

Yeah, phone calls are really annoying

[Heather Williams]

Generally any noise around me (I cannot afford noise cancelling headphones alas).
Slack and email notifications which are often critical to respond to timeously.
My pet and my landlords pets can also be very distracting if I am working at home.
Spaghetti code where you have to follow the trail through multiple functions before you can even begin to make changes.

Noise-cancelling headphones aren't actually very good at that kind of noise, only for general background hum etc.

I find that listening to white or brown noise, along with music, helps.

My team and I spent time adding or fixing the tools I need (jest, webpack, babel, node versions, etc...), instead of getting the real problem solved....adding/fixing a feature.

isn't it a good solution for intellisense in vscode yet ?

[Dominik Gorczyca]

Getting called while being focused on something.

Weakly typed languages, such as JS, Python

[Durga Pokharel]

My laptop freezes sometimes and the mystery guy from next apartment sings in loud. :P

[wanmaoor]

Fix bugs from colleagues.

I got provoke after trying to fix an issue, the issue may be fixed but I'll end up rubbishing my work. Then at the end I'll feel bad and discouraged in coding.
