Avoiding the workplace mediocrity trap

Confidence. Persistence. Ingenuity. Conventional wisdom tells us these are some of the traits needed for success at the office. But within teams, less laudable characteristics -- maintaining the status quo, for instance -- might be just as desirable, according to new research.

# Морфоанализатор ингушского языка: как мы научили словарь понимать словоформы — и что изменилось за два месяца

В апреле я писал тут про PaydaDosh — открытый словарь и корпус ингушского языка. Та статья была про «вот, собрали всё в одном месте»: 66 тысяч статей, параллельный корпус, ИИ в разделе вопросов. С тех пор прошло два месяца, и проект перестал быть просто словарём. Мы начали строить грамматику — движок, который понимает, как устроено ингушское слово.Это статья про то, как мы это делаем технически: почему ингушская морфология — это... Read more

Аудит алгоритмов: как реализация Boyer-Moore с 190K звёзд на GitHub оказалась brute-force

Проверил реализацию Boyer-Moore в TheAlgorithms/Python (190K+ звёзд). Оказалось, что сдвиг bad character записывается в переменную for-цикла, что в Python не имеет эффекта. Алгоритм выдаёт правильные результаты, но работает как brute-force O(nm) вместо O(n/m). Плюс ещё две находки: бесконечный цикл в типичных реализациях full BM и ошибка в оригинальной статье 1977 года, которую исправили только в 1980-м. Читать далее Read more

Researchers tracked honey bees in the wild using a drone-based system and found that each bee follows its own highly consistent flight path. Some repeated their routes so precisely that they flew only centimeters from where they had flown before. Landmarks like trees helped keep them on track, while uniform areas such as cornfields led to more variation. Read more
