  • Those links aren’t smoking guns.

    The first details troubled rollout of software upgrades, “upgrades” being the key word. That’s really just the nature of complicated software development in general. The previous complete package of software is already up-to-task and running it longer than desired isn’t a huge issue.

    The second says they can’t fix multiple problems simultaneously, which is again another common software development reality and a very different statement than not being able to fix things.

    The third flat out says the opposite in that many fixes actually have been completed, just not all of them yet. It’s an adjacent issue, but the headline also frames the secret keeping as a bad thing when that’s just a sensible thing to do.

  • I didn’t watch the video (yet), but it sounds like I’m going to have the exact same reaction. The best workspaces support a bunch of different workflows “well enough” instead of supporting one workflow really well. Customizability is even better.

    I don’t care if some people consider having a command accessible via direct text entry, search via text entry, search via browsing a list, navigating dropdown menus, visual shortcut, etc. all at the same time is wasteful due to all the redundancy. I still want those simultaneously all the same.

    And yes, agreed on window management. I use (usually simple) automatic tiling, custom prescribed tiling with overlap (see FancyZones and the KDE equivalents), and freeform placement at the same time all the time.
