I can’t afford a house right now. Am I screwed?

“Should I buy a house?” That’s the question that a listener, Miranda, brought to Explain It to Me, Vox’s weekly call-in show. “I think that’s always been the go-to investment for past generations,” she says. “You buy a house and that’s kind of your retirement plan, and that just doesn’t seem realistic or even attainable.” […]

Yes, you should probably be nicer to your AI — here’s why that’s not as ridiculous as it sounds

GraphCompose: как я приволок ECS из геймдева и снапшот-тесты из фронта в PDF-генерацию на Java

TL;DRЯ сделал библиотеку для генерации PDF на Java, в которой:Документ описывается семантически (модули, секции, параграфы, таблицы, слои), а не через moveTo/lineTo/showText.Layout и рендер — это два разных прохода. Геометрия резолвится один раз, потом её рисуют. Поэтому документ можно тестировать до того, как написан хотя бы один байт PDF.Под капотом — ECS-архитектура в стиле игровых движков: Entity / Component / System.

Пять странных гаджетов весны 2026 года: клавиатура с экраном, SSD с ОС и кое-что еще

В этой подборке — несколько устройств, которые сложно отнести к одной категории. Здесь есть гибрид накопителя и мини-ПК, клавиатура с встроенным экраном, карманный компьютер на Raspberry Pi, самодельная «печатная машинка» и смартфон с E Ink-дисплеем. У всех разная идея, но объединяет их одно: они сильно отличаются от «коллег». А некоторые так и вообще уникальны. Практически у всех явно не будет большого спроса, поскольку они заточены под определенные сценарии. Но тем... Read more

[Перевод] Необычная причина для колонизации космоса

Зачем колонизировать Луну, Марс, Венеру, Ганимед и Титан, а также пояс астероидов, а затем Альфа Центавра и другие звёздные системы за его пределами?Среди распространённых ответов на этот вопрос — выживание, ресурсы и крутость. Колонизация других планет и далёких миров обеспечила бы выживание человечества даже в случае катастрофы на Земле (включая неизбежный конец Солнечной системы через несколько миллиардов лет). Это позволило бы нам использовать огромные запасы полезных ископаемых и энергетических ресурсо Read more

Claude, Microsoft Copilot Fail Again to Predict the Winners of the Kentucky Derby

In 2016 an online "swarm intelligence" platform generated a correct prediction for the Kentucky Derby — naming all four top finishers in order. (But its 2017 predictions weren't even close.) Slashdot checked in again on how modern AI systems performed in 2023, 2024, and 2025 — but their predictions were still pretty bad. Would AI-generated Derby predictions be any better in 2026?

For years, many Democrats have lamented the fact that some workers at highly profitable corporations — from Amazon to Walmart to McDonald’s — receive Medicaid benefits.  Their reasoning isn’t hard to understand: To be eligible for safety net programs, one must have a low household income.
