Windows 11’s leaked taskbar feature could recommend apps, sites or snap groups

Windows 11’s taskbar is getting a few new features, but no—it’s not getting back the ability to move it to the top or sides. Instead, the taskbar could be getting “recommendations,” which could be a card or something else (a dedicated panel?) that appears on top of the taskbar with suggestions.

Unlike Windows 10 or any version of Windows, the taskbar in Windows 11 has seen several changes because it’s more modern and easy to update compared to previous versions. However, it’s limited in terms of features. The right-click menu is limited, and more importantly, the taskbar cannot be moved to any side of the screen.


AI With “Computer Use”: Agents, Accessibility Fix, Facilitating Usability Tests

 

AI’s new capability to operate computers directly could redefine user experience, from aiding disabled users to automating complex tasks. AI will soon be able to run usability studies, once it can observe the user’s actions and the computer’s response.

The Claude AI foundation model has launched a new feature called “Computer Use.” Not very imaginative branding, but I like names that simply say what the product does rather than introduce unnecessary mystery. In this case, “Computer Use” means that the AI can now use your computer. It does what it says on the tin!

What Is a Programming Language?

Programming, or coding, is like solving a puzzle. Consider a human language, like English or French. We use these languages to turn thoughts and ideas into actions and behavior. In programming, the goal of the puzzle is the same -- you're just driving different kinds of behavior, and the source of that behavior isn't a human. It's a computer.

A programming language is our way of communicating with software. The people who use programming languages are often called programmers or developers. The things we tell software using a programming language could be to make a webpage look a certain way, or to make an object on the page move if the human user takes a certain action.

Microsoft is Removing WordPad from Windows after 30 years

Microsoft is no longer updating WordPad and plans to remove the word processor from a future release of Windows. The software giant will instead recommend Microsoft Word, its paid word processor that has always been far more feature-rich than the basic WordPad app that has shipped as part of Windows since Windows 95.

“WordPad is no longer being updated and will be removed in a future release of Windows,” reads a support note published by Microsoft on Friday. “We recommend Microsoft Word for rich text documents like .doc and .rtf and Windows Notepad for plain text documents like .txt.”
