I am running simulations in Jupyter notebook, suddenly I get this kind of screens:

 ![Screenshot from 2020-10-15 14-45-01](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/3/a/3ad5fda5dab8e3658c9fc4639cd04052a1e6c966.png)

Does anyone know what might be causing this?

This is all happening on Chrome on Ubuntu 18.
