aws-graviton-getting-started VS Rectangle

EMR serverless + Athena + Glue works for us. We are evaluating Graviton instance to further optimize stuff. AWS link if you are interested

Now we turn our attention to carbon emissions which are presented in Table 8. In the table, the AMD – CPU only and AMD – T408 server watts/hour are actual measurements on the test system during operation. To estimate the AWS server watts/hour, we reduced the CPU-only AMD number by 60%, which is the savings that Amazon claims that Graviton3 CPUs provide over other CPUs. In all three cases, we multiplied this by the number of servers, then hours, days, and years, to compute the three-year power consumption total.

According to BlackBerry, both QNX and IVY can run on EC2 instances powered by AWS’ Graviton2 processor. Graviton2 is an internally-developed processor that AWS debuted at re:Invent last year. It promises to provide up to 40% better price performance than comparable chips. "

Rectangle’s installation is incredibly straightforward. Its immediate out-of-the-box functionality was a pleasant surprise. For anyone seeking to reduce the friction of window management on their Mac, Rectangle is a solution I wholeheartedly recommend.

Tip: I use Rectangle app to set up keyboard shortcuts to resize windows (I only have three shortcuts there: left/right half of the screen and full screen).

But Raycast also has some functionality in that direction.

Two more little utilities that I cannot live without on Mac:

A tiling window manager like https://rectangleapp.com/

Muzzle, which automatically silences desktop notifs when you're screensharing https://muzzleapp.com/

I suggest using Rectangle instead of Magnet; it has the same features but is free. I don't know what other Windows features you want to have.

I’ve used this app forever. Adds in all the window snapping features.

third-party window management apps like Magnet and Rectangle

Rectangle Mac - Move and resize windows in macOS using keyboard shortcuts or snap areas, similar to Windows.

I was a Spectacle user for years, but I recently switched to using Rectangle for window management. Rectangle has a few more options than Spectacle; I’m still getting used to it but I have no strong feelings either way.
