Library View showing link to edit filters in library view settings
I’ve just created a new filtered view on my library, and it now shows a link to the library view settings in order to view and edit the filters. I’ve never seen this message/link show before and is absolutely HORRIBLE. Is this a change that Microsoft have just implemented?
What a user would see when they click on the link. We absolutely do NOT want users going into here.
Hoping someone can shed some light as to whether or not this is a permanent change that Microsoft have just introduced. I haven’t seen any notification of this change in the message center or Microsoft roadmap.

Personal Finances Spreadsheet
Hey all,
So I have a spreadsheet that I use to track my personal outgoings. I have a column with the monthly due date of each expense and I’m trying to find a way for each individual due date to change to green (text or cell fill) once the due date has been reached. It then needs to reset on payday.
Is there any way to do this?
Cheers

How to convert a 1×1 struct to double matrix (error using pan tompkin)?

But ecg has to be a double matrix for filtfilt function to work. I tried loading the signal before defining it as ecg because it gets loaded as double matrix, but that didn’t work, I kept getting undevined variable error.

Title: Cost Optimization for General Purpose VMs using Hibernation now Generally Available
Source: Azure Compute
Author: Ankit Jain
Publication Date: 5/28/24
Content excerpt:
During Microsoft Ignite 2023, we previewed the ability to hibernate VMs, making it easier for customers to save Compute costs. Hibernating a VM deallocates the machine while persisting the VM’s in-memory state. While the VM is hibernated, customers don’t pay for the Compute costs associated with the VM and only pay for storage and networking resources associated with the VM. Customers can later start back these VMs when needed and all their apps and processes that were previously running simply resume from their last state.
Today we are excited to announce that hibernation for general-purpose VMs is now generally available. In addition, customers can now use hibernation with new VM deployments as well as their existing VMs and save more costs.

The maintainers of the OSS project EPAC work daily with Microsoft’s customers implementing Azure governance and security in general and more specifically Policy implementation via EPAC. EPAC was born out of the need to manage Policy at scale, while dramatically reducing the cost of implementation with traditional Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, such as ARM, Bicep, and Terraform. Those tools are great for IaC in general; however, their lack the knowledge of dependencies between definitions, assignments, exemptions, and role assignments and the simplifications to Policy Assignments and Policy Exemptions. EPAC understands the dependencies and will sequence the deployment correctly.

Title: How to choose the right reserved instance in Azure
Source: FinOps
Author: Gregor Wohlfarter
Publication Date: 5/7/24
Content excerpt:
A reserved instance is a way to prepay for a certain amount of compute usage in Azure for a fixed period of time (either one or three years [1]), at a discount. By doing so, you can save up to 72% compared to the pay-as-you-go (PAYG) price, depending on the type and size of the instance. Reserved instances are ideal for workloads that have predictable and consistent usage patterns, such as production environments, databases, or web servers.
While Reserved Instances offer a cost-effective solution for consistent workloads, it’s important to understand the flexibility and limitations they present. Currently, you can cancel reservations with no penalty fee, subject to a cap of $50,000 per 12-month period. However, there might be an upcoming 12% cancellation fee for canceling reservations [2]. Additionally, virtual machine reservations are not limited to a single product; Instance Size Flexibility allows you to apply your reservation to any virtual machine within the same flexibility group, enhancing adaptability to changing needs [3]. However, this flexibility is exclusive to VM instances.

Title: How to enforce usage of Privileged Access Workstations for Admins
Source: Security, Compliance, and Identity
Author: Sascha Windrath
Publication Date: 5/3/24
Content excerpt:
You probably already came across the challenge to make sure that administrators using a highly privileged administrative role in Entra ID or an Azure RBAC role which allows control over sensitive resources should be only allowed if administrators use a dedicated administrative workstation. At Microsoft we call those devices Privileged Access Workstations (PAW). PAWs are highly restricted and protected devices with the single purpose to secure and protect the admin’s credentials following Zero Trust and Clean Source Principle. Now, the issue is that Admins could either employ that device or simply ignore it and use their office computers instead, which seems to be much more convenient. The same applies for the attackers, because admins not using a PAW makes their life much easier as they would have a direct attack path at hand. This is not what you want! (This article assumes you already have implemented a PAW for cloud services management.)

In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, organizations face a daunting challenge: managing their security posture effectively. With an ever-expanding attack surface, including cloud services, endpoints, apps, increasing use of SaaS applications and different types of accounts and identities, it has become more important than ever to implement proactive processes to prevent threats. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, organizations must stay ahead of the curve. The ability to implement processes to identify, assess, and remediate exposures is essential for maintaining a robust security posture.

Title: Run untrusted content safely with Windows Sandbox
Source: Windows OS Platform
Author: Kavya Nagalakunta
Publication Date: 5/14/24
Content excerpt:
As a developer, your work often involves experimenting with various libraries, frameworks, tools and sometimes testing unknown files or executables. But let’s face it – accessing unfamiliar files or repos can sometimes feel like tiptoeing through a minefield. You do not know if they are safe or potential malware. What if I told you there’s a way to explore new files without risking your host OS!
Windows Sandbox (WSB) provides a lightweight desktop environment to safely run applications in isolation from the host OS. Think of it as your digital playground – a safe, isolated environment where you can test and debug apps, explore unknown files, or experiment with tools without risking your host OS. A Windows Sandbox is disposable. When it’s closed, all the software and files and the state are deleted. You get a brand-new instance of the sandbox every time you open the application.

OBTENTION OF AN ABSORBANCE SPECTRA FROM AN IMAGE
I want to process images from light spectra to obtain an absorbance vs wavelength plot. However, the ligth spectra is only a small part of the image, and i do not understand how to set the wavelengths at the pixels they correspond. That is to say, only the light spectra is half of the image (for example), how do i know when wavelengths start to count in the visible spectra.I want to process images from light spectra to obtain an absorbance vs wavelength plot.

how to install supported CUDA Toolkit 10.2 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Linux
As you can see here, the CUDA Toolkit currently suported by R2020b is 10.2. But, as you can see here , the only supported version of Ubuntu Linux by CUDA Toolkit 10.2 is Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04, not 20.04.
How can I install supported version of CUDA toolkit 10.2 on clean installation of Ubuntu 20.04? What is the official install procedure for Ubuntu 20.04 Linux??? Where can I find detailed description of CUDA toolkit 10.2 installation procedure for already officially supported Ubuntu 20.04?
The situatiion is even worst, because different versions of CUDA Toolkit requires different versions of GCC compilers, which are not officially supported by current version of MATLAB, see here. CUDA Toolkit 10.2 requires GCC 7, but GCC version supported GPU (CUDA) for R2020b is GCC 8.
So, I think that this situation is, at least, a bit confusing. But the fact is, that is absolutely not clear how to install currently supported CUDA toolkit (version 10.2) on currently supported linux distribution (Ubuntu 20.04), which is really strange?!As you can see here, the CUDA Toolkit currently suported by R2020b is 10.2.
