im finding VSCode nearly unusable now.
Output window is regularly getting updated with exceptions.

@derekwallace re-focused the title as the other stuff basically says "it doesn't work well" isn't really actionable by us. 😉

Hi guys. I experience a similar issue to @derekwallace. And it also makes my vscode experience nearly unusable.

I am on:
macOS High Sierra 10.13.5 (17F77)
VSCode Version 1.25.1 (1.25.1)
Python extension 2018.7.1 (23 July 2018)
Python 2.7.10 64-bit

When I start typing the name of a not-yet declared data attribute (e.g. self.data_attribute) in a class __init()__ method the output window pops up on each character typed which is not found and the output says:

[Info  - 10:17:35] Found 0 completions for file:///Users/(...)/Work/(...)/admin.py at (101, 17) after filtering
[Error - 10:17:38] Request textDocument/completion failed.
  Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
  Code: -32000 

Shall I open a new issue for this?

[brettcannon]

@Fogetti yes, please open a separate issue.

Most probably #2017 or #2262
