Tech Times reports: Linux 7.2's merge window closed out a cleanup campaign on Friday that most kernel developers had stopped expecting to see end: the complete removal of strncpy(), a C string-copy function that the kernel's own documentation labels "actively dangerous," from every subsystem, driver, and architecture-specific file in the kernel source tree. The merge landed June 20, 2026. After around 362 commits spread across six years of incremental work,... Read more ›

Two decades ago, using a “borderless Cloud” to house data felt like an exciting innovation. And in reality, it was. Companies jumped at the ability to create, store, and organize their data in the Cloud. They could access it from anywhere. The scale, speed, and affordability were attractive. Efficiency was clearly better with this approach to data storage and […] Read more ›

Morgan Stanley, one of the most active banks in financing data center developers, is now pitching some of those same clients on tapping a market better known for funding leveraged buyouts. It’s a sign that in the race to raise money for AI infrastructure, developers and their advisors are turning over every stone. Over the last few months, Morgan Stanley has suggested to clients that the next time they need... Read more ›

Как я думаю, вы уже догадались, IT-отрасль попала в кризис на фоне высокой стоимости денег в развитых экономиках и геополитической ситуации, которая мешает IT-продуктам двигаться в сторону новых рынков. Как итог, IT-компании сокращают программистов, морозят запуск новых проектов и пересматривают долгосрочные планы развития.Также это все подкрепляется страхом бигтехов перед ИИ, что заставляет их тратить все бюджеты на развитие с обширного спектра направлений исключительно на ИИ. Я думаю, они все видели... Read more ›

За последний месяц я насчитал минимум семь свежих статей с заголовком в духе "Playwright быстрее Selenium на N%". Проблема в том, что N у всех разный: 23%, 42%, 63%, "1.85x". Методология почти нигде не раскрыта дальше фразы "controlled environment". Для решения, которое определяет CI-бюджет и архитектуру тестов на годы вперёд, это не цифры — это шум.Здесь — что из этого шума реально на что-то опирается, почему остальное несопоставимо, и рабочий...

В феврале я публиковал первую статью про Yttri: что это за приложение, зачем я его делаю и почему мне не хватало Obsidian, Notion, почтового клиента, таск-трекера и AI-чата по отдельности.Тогда это был первый публичный заход в бета-тестирование. Первая сотня мест ушла быстрее, чем я ожидал, а комментарии оказались полезнее любой внутренней аналитики. Люди спрашивали про локальность данных, закрытый код, запуск без Ollama, связь задач с письмами и заметками, синхронизацию, доверие... Read more ›

Каждый раз, когда вы пишете .await, происходит не магия, а вполне конкретный механизм: Future, Waker и опрос состояния. Чтобы увидеть это своими глазами, я написал собственный async-рантайм на Rust с нуля - с executor, reactor на epoll и рабочим TCP-эхо-сервером. По пути разобрался, как именно tokio будит ваши задачи, и нашёл баг, который тихо висел у меня в проде. Внутри - весь код целиком и объяснение без отсылок к чёрным... Read more ›

Cold Court is a brother-sister duo from Philly that seems to love nothing more than shoving all of their influences together in a messy soup that at least superficially resembles the hyperpop you've come to expect from acts like 100 Gecs. But, where songs like "Dumbest Girl Alive" goofily wink at pop punk and emo, […] Read more ›

"A year after spending over $14 billion to bring in Alexandr Wang and a group of his top Scale AI engineers to revamp its artificial intelligence efforts, Meta is at least back on the map in AI," reports CNBC, "though it's still far behind OpenAI, Anthropic and Google in the market." Wang's big accomplishment was the delivery of the Muse Spark AI model in April, marking Meta's first jump into... Read more ›

Steven Spielberg grants that his 1977 UFO film Close Encounters was "speculative," writes the Associated Press, but "Disclosure Day, he insists, is the real deal." "It's my first film that will be considered science fiction that I do not consider to be science fiction," Spielberg said in a recent interview. "It's much more reflective of the world as it is evolving and discoveries that are being made as we speak."... Read more ›

UK's Members of Parliament (MP) were "looking for proof that smartphones and social media are rotting children's brains," writes The Register — but they got "a less satisfying answer from neuroscientists on Wednesday: nobody can really prove it." Appearing before the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee this week, three researchers spent much of the session explaining that concern and evidence are not quite the same thing. Asked what evidence exists... Read more ›

"As the use of artificial intelligence spreads across companies worldwide, it is relieving workers of tedious old chores but creating new ones," reports the Los Angeles Times.

Futurism reports: in a new essay for The Chronicle Higher Education, university-level literature and writing instructor Tyler Jagt recalls how not a single one of his students could get through an assigned 20-page article, something that he had read "without complaint" as an undergraduate a decade ago. One student confessed that the reason they didn't finish was that they kept losing track of what the paper was about. And there's... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Guardian: Voters in Switzerland have rejected an unprecedented far-right proposal to cap the country's population at 10 million in a divisive referendum dubbed "the Swiss Brexit." Some 54.79% of voters were against the proposal by the Swiss People's party (SVP) and 45.21% were in favor. Turnout was 58.86%. A different outcome would have obliged the Swiss government to limit the population, currently... Read more ›

BrianFagioli writes: Google CEO Sundar Pichai delivered Stanford University's 2026 commencement address, but despite leading one of the companies at the center of the AI boom, he spent very little time discussing artificial intelligence. Instead, the speech focused on optimism, working on hard things, and following your interests. The omission is notable given how many graduates are entering a job market being reshaped by AI. While Pichai briefly referenced a... Read more ›
