Can some point out how to remove these stickers when pluto is throwing errors, I believe newer version started this “feature”

The easiest way is to just a cell that modifies the CSS to hide them. See here:

I have to bear the embarrassment infront of my supervisors : /

You could probably also use PlutoStyles.jl to disable them more easily for all notebooks you execute on your machine

Yea, I’m not a fan of these either. I know they’re trying to be supporting, but I can’t help but read them as patronising and getting anoyed by them.

I had very much the same reaction. Also seems unprofessional. This should not be the default.

Things I find annoying and unprofessional about Pluto:

  • The “computers are hard!”, “this suckz” (?!), “uhmmmmmm??!”, “Maybe time for a break? :coffee:” and other stickers that randomly pop up alongside error messages are unnecessarily patronizing. You don’t need to tell me computers are hard, man!
  • The terminal output with animated scanlines is ugly, distracting and intentionally hard to read. I want to focus on my output, not the (un)funny ha-has.
  • The “you need a shiny new browser to run Pluto!” when trying to open a Pluto HTML export in an old browser. Discourse gets it right: it says the browser is unsupported, but still shows the content. Can’t Pluto at least show me the raw code in the notebook?
  • The “Go to … in your browser to start writing ~ have fun!” I’m not always going to have fun with Pluto; most of the time I’m just trying to do my job and this constantly reminds me that I could be having fun instead. Which is kinda depressing.
