Useradd Default Groups in 22.04

I'm working on building some new servers with 22.04. I use Ansible to create users, and noticed that when creating a new user, for example "test", the user's default group is now the "users" group. On 20.04, a user "test" would automatically create a group named "test". It looks like Ansible's user module is just using the "useradd" command. In 20.04, if I run useradd test, test would be in the test ...

Notification for print job sent in UbuntuMATE 22.04 LTS

In previous LTS releases, a completed print job displayed a notification balloon. While perhaps annoying for some users (with printers on their desks), it is extremely handy for a network printer down the hall.

Currently, no print jobs (through CUPS) show any notification, even in the popover notification window.

This may be related to dropping the popup notification balloon for low-urgency in Gnome ...

The Stunning Power of Questions

Much of an executive’s workday is spent asking others for information—requesting status updates from a team leader, for example, or questioning a counterpart in a tense negotiation. Yet unlike professionals such as litigators, journalists, and doctors, who are taught how to ask questions as an essential part of their training, few executives think of questioning as a skill that can be honed—or consider how their own answers to questions could make conversations more productive.

That’s a missed opportunity. Questioning is a uniquely powerful tool for unlocking value in organizations: It spurs learning and the exchange of ideas, it fuels innovation and performance improvement, it builds rapport and trust among team members. And it can mitigate business risk by uncovering unforeseen pitfalls and hazards.

For some people, questioning comes easily. Their natural inquisitiveness, emotional intelligence, and ability to read people put the ideal question on the tip of their tongue. But most of us don’t ask enough questions, nor do we pose our inquiries in an optimal way.

The good news is that by asking questions, we naturally improve our emotional intelligence, which in turn makes us better questioners—a virtuous cycle. In this article, we draw on insights from behavioral science research to explore how the way we frame questions and choose to answer our counterparts can influence the outcome of conversations. We offer guidance for choosing the best type, tone, sequence, and framing of questions and for deciding what and how much information to share to reap the most benefit from our interactions, not just for ourselves but for our organizations.
