Microsoft continues to dismantle the Control Panel as another feature migrates to Settings

Microsoft is migrating features from the Control Panel to the Settings panel, with keyboard repetition settings being the latest to transition. This change is part of a broader initiative to phase out the Control Panel, which was announced in August 2024. Currently, these keyboard settings are hidden in testing builds and have not yet been rolled out to the live version of Windows. Other settings, such as mouse trails and options to hide the cursor while typing, have already made the transition. Users are generally finding the Settings panel to be a suitable replacement for the Control Panel.

Details of the Windows 11 25H2 update begin appearing, and it’s…actually kind of small?

The Windows 11 25H2 update is expected to debut in October 2023. It may be a minor update compared to the 24H2 update, as indicated by findings in Windows 11 build 27842, which include new entries in the appraiserRes.dll file. The entry "GE25H2" confirms plans for the 25H2 update, while "26200=FTALLCompatIndicatorHelper_WritingGE25H2" indicates that the build number for this update will be 26200, a slight increase from the current build number of 26100. Microsoft's update strategy appears to alternate between major updates and smaller follow-ups, allowing for refinement of existing features. The existence of the 25H2 update has not been officially confirmed by Microsoft.

Microsoft set to make huge Windows change — and it’s hoping you won’t notice

The Windows 11 Insider Preview Build (27842) will replace the Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) with a new error screen featuring a Medium Forest Green backdrop. This change is part of an effort to create a more streamlined user interface for unexpected restarts, although it may provide less context for troubleshooting. The new design is currently being tested in Microsoft's Canary Channel and is expected to become standard with the Windows 11 25H2 update later this year.

Google Maps continues its mission to be mappier than ever with expansion of sheets UI redesign

Google Maps is implementing a new user interface that features a sheets-first design, allowing app elements to appear as sheets while keeping the map view visible. This redesign started with the Explore tab on Android last summer and is now being applied to the You and Contribute buttons, which display a draggable sheet that can cover most or part of the screen. The update aims to enhance aesthetics and improve navigation while maintaining familiar features in the same locations. User feedback on the changes is encouraged as the update continues to roll out.

Meet Xata Agent: An Open Source Agent for Proactive PostgreSQL Monitoring, Automated Troubleshooting, and Seamless DevOps Integration

Xata Agent is an open-source AI assistant designed for PostgreSQL database site reliability engineering. It monitors logs and performance metrics to identify issues like slow queries and unusual connection counts, helping to maintain database integrity and performance. The tool automates tasks such as vacuuming and indexing and provides actionable recommendations through diagnostic playbooks and read-only SQL routines. The architecture is built as a Next.js application using TypeScript, organized in a monorepo structure. Developers can set up their environment using Node, install dependencies, and configure a local PostgreSQL instance with Docker Compose. Production deployment involves using Docker images and configuring environment variables in a production file. Key functionalities include proactive monitoring, configuration tuning, performance troubleshooting, safe diagnostics, cloud integration, alerting, LLM flexibility, and playbook customization. Developers can create new tools and integrate them into playbooks for cohesive workflows. Future plans include custom playbooks, support for Model Context Protocol, evaluation harnesses, approval workflows, and a managed cloud edition. The architecture promotes extensibility and community contributions, standardizing incident response and reducing human error in database management.
