+** Custom window management
+Emacs' default window management is horrendous, using other windows on
+a whim as if your carefully crafted window setup doesn't exist!
+Thankfully you can change this behaviour via the
+~display-buffer-alist~ which matches regular expressions on buffer
+names with a set of properties and functions that dictate how the
+window for a buffer should be displayed.  It's a bit verbose but once
+you get the hang of it it's actually really unique.
+
+Here I add a use-package keyword to make ~display-buffer-alist~
+records within a single use-package call instead of doing the
+~add-to-list~ yourself.  I have no idea whether it's optimal AT ALL,
+but it works for me.

 ** Tabs
 Tabs in vscode are just like buffers in Emacs but way slower and
 harder to use.  Tabs in Emacs are essentially window layouts, similar
