How to prevent colab Resources tab from showing? - google-colaboratory

I'm using google colab pro, and irritatingly, the Resources tab keeps showing itself after I've closed it. It doesn't appear to be showing me anything new, and it is not in response to any action. It just randomly pops up every few minutes no matter how often I've closed it. I can collapse the divider down so that it is small, and it stays, but that is a work-around. Why does it keep popping up, and is there a way to prevent it?

Figured it out. It looks like it was the Colab Alive chrome extension trying to do its job. I removed the extension, and that fixed my problem.

Google Colabs - Mobile - Blank code cells

If I visit a Google Colab on Google Chrome on Android or through Discord app browser, all my code cells will load blank. On top of that, the notebook saves right away yielding a blank notebook to history.
What is causing this? And how can I prevent it? If the browser is in Desktop mode this doesn't happen but isn't always set to on by default.
The issue in on mobile version only.
If you pass on desktop version, no cells are wiped!
After you pass on desktop version,you can use version history to restore you lost code!
But where i can post this issue? Google must fix the mobile version!
Yes, it's incredible that this issue hasn't been fixed, especially since it used to work IIRC a few years back.

WebKitGTK WebInspector doesn't close

I'm working on a project using WebKitGTK and I'm having trouble with the WebInspector after having enabled it using the enable-developer-extras property.
I can open it fine, but when I click the close, pop-out into own window, or switch to sidebar buttons they don't do anything. In my application there's literally no way to close WebInspector once you've opened it.
It doesn't appear to be anything I've changed in my code because I remember it working before, but when I check those commits from Git they're now broken as well. At the same time however it does look like something I'm doing because other applications on my computer using WebKitGTK have their WebInspector working perfectly (and yes, I checked out their code).
So my question is: Has anyone faced a similar issue? And does anyone have an idea how it might be fixed?
You're probably hitting this bug. Workaround is to add a dummy call to webkit_web_view_get_inspector somewhere.

Google Cloud Terminal issues

I'm having issues when connecting to our google cloud containers.
The terminal gets restricted to a certain size and it is behaving odd, when using vim for example the application hangs for 10-20 sec if you press Page-Down, but that's something i'm able to work around, the real issue is the following.
When typing a command and the width goes over the width-length of the prefixed size of the terminal, you suddenly don't know where your cursor is.
The same is for editing a file in vim and you start to scroll down or write a shellscript for example and the last line of the document gets updated, only the last line of the file gets updated and the scrolling behavior is suddenly very broken.
This is what the pre-set size of the terminal looks like when editing
a file.
Setting the TERM enviroment variable to "xterm", "xterm-color" makes the colors and the "clear" function work but does not solve these issues.
If anyone else has experienced these issues and know how to fix them, sharing that knowledge would make life worth living again!
Updating your glcoud components to the latest version solved this problem, now i'm able to run fullscreen vim and life is wonderful!
gcloud components update

Monaca IDE - console.log never appears

X-Post from here, for exposure: https://community.onsen.io/topic/222/monaca-ide-console-log-never-appears
Odd question, but only once while using Monaca IDE has anything ever shown up in the console.log portion of the IDE itself. It only occurred when I had a device synced via the debugger. I have since tried syncing it and I never get the device to show in the drop down box, it usually says unknown device /www/html/…
Now, do know that I have put several console.log(‘test’); lines of code to try this out and still no success. I would think that the IDE’s console area would show the log operations from the emulator and not from the device debugger as it has its own log that is view-able on the device, but this apparently isn’t the case. Is this correct or am I just really missing something simple here?
So this isn’t that big of an issue, but I figured out the problem. Basically, I keep the Monaca IDE tab open in Chrome all the time (I work via my laptop remotely). When I come back after a long absence (several hours, I don’t know what the time out is), the bottom section in the console has the Chrome error showing, like that page timed out. The IDE is still there, just that section is grayed out.
So to fix this, I would just refresh the page. The section pops back and all is good EXCEPT I just figured out that it is at that moment when the device connection no longer works. I can still click Run on Device and it works - syncing with the device - but the console.log no longer shows up. In order to get that back and working, you have to close the tab and reopen it; then everything works.

XCode crashes on start up

Yes, this happens to people. Yes, I've looked at all the solutions.
This is different.
XCode starts and there is no error message, it just freezes. This is the screen I get:
That's it. No errors. I can't interact with it, I can't close it. The only thing I can do is use Show All Windows. There are five and yes I don't need them all (never did! don't know why I have them) but I can't close any of them. To get rid of it I need to do a hard reset.
I've tried deleting the library file in Finder as this was one of the solutions.
Nope.
Anyone any ideas?
I think it's XCode 6 (the latest) but I can't tell because I can't access the menu.
I ended up scouring Stackoverflow for ways to clear the startup process.
You hold cmd+shift when you start XCode - ONLY from the task bar, this does NOT work if you go into the Applications folder - and it will load blank.
Then you can load your project.
