my iphone 6s and 12 pro beg to differ. both saw serious drops in battery in pretty normal 10-15F chicago winters while I was outdoor ice skating or even just going for a long walk with the phone in my pocket.
In the timestamped video link shared downthread, the speaker does seem to strongly imply that gWorkspace doesn’t manage the infra, when he finishes explaining the migration he declares (around 55:18)“[…]we can focus on the business of gmail and spanner can choose to improve and deliver performance gains automagically[sic]” which would imply, to me at least, that it’s on GCP.
That's not what it implied to me. To me, it meant that they adopted an internal managed Spanner with its own SRE team, instead of running their own Spanner. In the past, Gmail ran their own [[redacted]]s and [[redacted]] even though there were company-wide managed services for those things.
Agree, but with the caveat that [[redacted]] and [[redacted]] were old and originally designed to be run that way. All newer storage systems I can recall were designed to be run by a central team after many years of experience doing it the other way. And many tears shed over migrating to those centralized versions.
Source: I was on the last team running our own [[redacted]].
There was a similar Windows bug when a tooltip in the notification area (systray) wouldn't disappear no matter what. I first found the bug in Windows XP, and then witnessed it in Vista, in Windows 7, Windows 10. It was my ritual to check if it's fixed yet when upgrading to a new version of Windows. It never was. Since then I moved to Linux and now I don't know if it's fixed or not.
A thing about language is that nobody controls it, not even Microsoft, if everyone calls it the System Tray as they have done for 30 years, it is the System Tray.
That guy's got a problem with his entire company, and their documentation. If he can't get over it, he should clean house first and only then try to police what the rest of the world calls it. As long as MS insists that it's the system tray, people are going to call it that no matter what his team wishes it were called instead. Renaming systray.exe would be a good first step.
According to the article, systray.exe puts some icons into the notification area. Somewhat akin to calling a bus stop Lee because Lee uses that bus stop?
Same, although I haven't seen this one for a while now. One way to fix the misbehaving explorer (which start menu, tray and others are part of) is to simply kill it and start it over from the task manager. Some applications failed to re-create their tray icons after this, but either all of them fixed it, or it got somehow fixed in Windows.
This still happens on my Windows 11 machines (the tooltip stays there unless you move the mouse over the same icon again), but only to a small number of applications. Makes me wonder if they are using a different set of API to set up their tray icons.
Yep. Trivial to trigger this in chrome with gmail, hoverovers persist in a tooltip like box no matter how much scrolling you do. If you can make ANOTHER one pop up the first dies and if you want, you've now put the thing into its correct handler loop and the one you trigger dies too.
Somehow missing when you use the screenshot tool too! so very hard to send google a bug report.
Not quite, the GP is pointing out that it's become in vogue as of late to express hate for the USA among leftist circles, those people will post the raised fist or w/e appropriate color to the SM profiles and do little else, but they all do express admiration for 44.
Orion on iOS has addr bar on the bottom, also supports rich set of gestures for tab navigation, if you're looking for an alternative to safari on iOS I'd take a look at that. They also offer a mac option, no MS option yet.
My big issue with Vivaldi is the very noticeable lag in the UI compared to chrome/edge. every time I've tried over the last 3-5 years I've been disappointed and switched back to chrome, I wish I could switch to FF, but I have a few extensions I can't do without
Recently switched to Vivaldi and the new tab lag is annoying as I cannot Ctrl+t Ctrl+v too quickly, have to wait x00ms. Tried turning off many features on the new tab page but doesn't fix it.
> That they aren't even interested in that model is because they're in a Faustian bargain with cellular carriers to drive device renewals and post-paid plans.
I like your idea but in the US at least most mobile carriers actually don't encourage yearly upgrades as they force you into a multiyear contract for your phone to get "the best deal". In fact, currently both verizon and AT&T have 30+ month payment plans for phones so you're locked into at least 2.5 years. consequently, most people hold on to their phone for 3 years now.
Off topic but: currently needing to use autocad for a work project, any recommendations for learning autolisp or w/e the scripting language is? I was having trouble finding a good resource for this, seems like everyone just knows it and the only way to learn is to have good enough Google-fu to find the forum post that fulfills your criteria. And hope it’s not out of date.
