SharePoint Lists – Help me automatically change to 2 columns

Figure: SharePoint Lists – use the right-hand side if there is space. Obviously, 2 columns would be a better UX for the user

Help me know when the car starts to move

By Adam Cogan in Tesla March 16, 2021 0 Comment

Often we’d like to know when the car starts moving. If we’re being picked up, we will be opening the Tesla app every 5 mins to see when the car starts moving. So if you’re out walking and you will be picked up, it would be super to get a notification when the car started to move.

Help me see the status messages

Sometimes you see a message like this:

3 or more members are out of the office or have a status message

Unfortunately it is not immediately obvious where to read them.

Currently you can open the top-right-hand pane, then from there hover over the people’s icons and see their status.

I have a suggestion that could remove this papercut by adding a button called “View” straight from the message we see.

Let me know my account doesn’t have access instead of a 404

Trying to access some photos on Google Photos as per Do you manage your photos? but I’ve got a 404:

Figure: The photos existed but the message tells me otherwise

We later realized I was using a wrong account (login).

At first, I didn’t even think about changing accounts because I got a 404. Instead, we would expect to see a message like:

You have no permissions to see these photos.

I have a Tesla Model S. Has anyone noticed that the road and wind noise is much greater in the Tesla than other comparable cars like BMW and Mercedes? Those cars are much quieter.
