Brain imaging reveals surprises about learning

By revealing for the first time what happens in the brain when an animal makes a mistake, researchers are shedding light on the holy grail of neuroscience: the mechanics of how we learn. The team pinpointed the exact moment mice learned a new skill by observing the activity of individual neurons, confirming earlier work that suggested animals are fast learners that purposely test the boundaries of new knowledge.

Динамический полиморфизм против std::variant с указателями: Разрушаем мифы о скорости std::visit (v.2*)

В экосистеме современного C++ прочно укоренилось мнение: классический динамический полиморфизм через виртуальные функции (vtable) и наследование — это устаревший, медленный и недружелюбный к кэшу процессора механизм. В качестве «серебряной пули» модно предлагать связку std::variant и std::visit. Если вы спросите любого виртуального умника (ИИ) он до последнего будет убеждать вас что std::variant и std::visit всегда(!) лучше чем виртуальные функции, даже не сомневайтесь. Проблема в том что с таким отношением Read more

Commodore announces Callback 8020, a phone "between dumb and smart"

Commodore is making a phone that isn't a full-on smartphone, nor is it a dumbphone. It straddles the line in a very obviously nostalgia-baiting fashion. Before we talk about the new Commodore Callback 8020, let's get something out of the way first. Commodore International Corporation (CIC), which now owns the brand, was established last year by Christian Simpson, a tech YouTuber who is the CEO. He's brought on some ex-employees... Read more

PostgreSQL 19 Beta: неблокирующий REPACK — перепаковка раздутых таблиц без окна простоя (и графовые запросы в придачу)

4 июня 2026 вышла PostgreSQL 19 Beta 1. Все пишут про графовые запросы SQL/PGQ, но главная операционная новость в другом: в ядро завезли команду REPACK с неблокирующей опцией CONCURRENTLY — перепаковку раздутых таблиц без ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock и без внешнего pg_repack.
