Full screen windows hide behind sidebar after suspending
bt flag

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 with GNOME 42.9. When I maximize a window it fits nicely next to the sidebar as expected, however if I then suspend the computer and then turn it back on, the full-screened window now sits behind the sidebar. If I just minimize and maximize again, it goes back to normal.

Expected behavior:

What are the possible consequences of removing the udisks2 package from an Ubuntu server?
in flag

What are the possible consequences of removing the package udisks2 from an Ubuntu server?

To me, this is safe as long as you do not need any particular mount-point, for example relying on GUI (involving D-bus) or encrypted filesystems with LUKS.

Ubuntu 23.04 keeps crashing after reopening lid/login

The laptop works great with minimal issues. But when I close the lid to suspend the system and reopen it again, it crashes by logging me in and out repeatedly while flickering the black screen. Restarting the laptop solves the issue, but it's unreasonable to go on without being able to close the lid.

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.
