"I think not detecting the card was the biggest issue. You couldn't get into the account to add money. I had to have them open the gate and let me in."

Finding the right desk and office chair combo can have lasting effects on the quality of your spinal health, and in my case, landing on just the right pairing has boosted my productivity big time.

Digital wall calendars take your online calendar-think your Google Calendar, the Calendar app on your iPhone, or your corporate Microsoft calendar account-and put it on a digital screen that you can mount on the wall or prop up on a stand on a countertop or table.

Performance is a critical factor in user engagement, where even minor delays in loading can deter users. A clean and simple user interface also contributes significantly to user retention.

If you use WhatsApp for your personal and professional messaging, it can quickly become pretty busy. It also means that any professional contacts can see your photos, status updates, and where you are. To keep things separate its a good idea to use a different phone number for each, but having two numbers doesn't mean you'll need two phones.

What started in 2019 as a couple of utilities for things like window and shortcut management has gradually expanded to nearly 30 useful tools, including a keyboard shortcut creator, an image-to-text extractor, and a better search bar than the one that's built into Windows proper. PowerToys has become wildly popular among Windows power users, with more than 70 million downloads to date, but it's also completely free, with no ads, Office upsells, or ham-fisted Copilot integrations.

A financial analyst can pull comparable company financials from an open workbook and other data sources. From there they could build out a trading comps table in Excel, drop the valuation summary into the pitch deck, and draft the email to the MD - without switching tabs or re-explaining the dataset at each step.

Microsoft PC Manager, which first appeared in beta form in 2022, and is now available for free to anyone who wants to give it a try. Microsoft promises it "effortlessly enhances PC performance with just one click," and will "keep your PC running smoothly." In other words, it's intended to clean up some of the clutter and baggage that your PC may have accumulated over the years.

Plaud, the San Francisco-based artificial intelligence (AI) startup, has launched NotePin S, the latest version of its wearable recording and notetaking device. The successor to the Plaud NotePin, which was launched in August 2024, comes with one major upgrade - a physical button. Unlike the predecessor, which operated based on haptic touches, the newer model offers a more reliable way of registering input. Alongside the new device, the company has also introduced the Plaud Desktop app, which is compatible with both Windows and macOS.

When was the last time you opened your contact app? Do you even bother with it? If you use email, chances are you also use your contact app -- perhaps without realizing it. However, not all contact apps are created equal. Some contact apps are very basic, while others are overly complicated. And then there's the sweet spot -- those apps with just the right number of features wrapped up in a well-designed GUI. Are you ready for this? Let's get connected.

One of the changes that we've seen in phones over recent years has been more control over the file systems. Having previously hidden away a lot of the local storage structure, Android and iOS now both give you easy access to it so you can manage your files similar to how you would on Windows or macOS. It reflects a few gradual changes in the phones that we carry around with us, including increasing amounts of onboard storage space, increasingly complex apps, and increasingly

A2UI (Agent to UI) is a UI protocol from Google that lets AI agents generate user interfaces on demand. It introduces declarative mini-apps where UI components and actions are defined in a schema, and the agent can operate them automatically. Think Telegram-style mini-apps: small, self-contained interfaces that work without custom integration code. Instead of a long question-and-answer loop, agents can now send interactive, native interfaces directly to the client.

Last summer, Google announced that Android 16 would include a desktop interface built from Samsung DeX, a mirroring and phone integration tool for PC. Thanks to a (now permissions-restricted) discovered on Google's Issue Tracker, we have what is almost certainly a first look at the Android-on-desktop project, codenamed Aluminium OS. First spotted by , the bug report was about Chrome incognito tabs and included two screen recordings.

Save and curate links you love.

Claude is a very powerful AI tool that works especially well for coding. It's possible to code entire applications or services in Claude. That's why Claude quickly becomes a very important tool in a product designer's toolkit. It allows us to move quickly and build not only fast interactive prototypes, but also code UI components ready for implementation. To make this guide more specific, I will use Claude to code a sign-up web form.

Microsoft is making it a lot faster and easier to add links to text inside Word documents. Instead of having to open a menu item to insert a link or use the CTRL + K keyboard shortcut, you can now simply paste a link on top of the text you want to hyperlink. This new feature reduces the amount of clicks you need to do an everyday task like linking URLs, and it works across Word for the web, Windows, and Mac.

If old sci-fi shows are anything to go by, we're all using our computers wrong. We're still typing with our fingers, like cave people, instead of talking out loud the way the future was supposed to be. Have you ever seen Picard touch a keyboard? Of course not. And it's odd because our computers are all capable of turning speech into text by default. The problem? It just doesn't work very well. Or, at least, it didn't.

The announcement, part of the broader Copilot custom agents' rollout, introduces two purpose-built agents: C# Expert and WinForms Expert in the form of agent instruction Markdown files. The C# Expert agent is designed to guide and enforce modern C# best practices. It respects project conventions, minimises unnecessary code artefacts such as unused interfaces or parameters, and emphasises async/await patterns with proper cancellation and exception handling.
