Your iPhone Can Ask Why Someone's Calling Before You Pick Up

Spam calls have become such a nuisance that many people simply don't answer their phone unless they recognize the number. In iOS 26, though, you can learn about who's calling before you respond, thanks to a clever new feature that intercepts unknown calls and asks the caller to identify themselves before your iPhone even rings.


The new "Ask Reason for Calling" feature is kind of like having your own receptionist. When someone who isn't in your Contacts calls, your iPhone automatically answers the call.

Чарльз Петцольд, автор легендарного «Программирования для Windows», взялся за невозможное: объяснить, как компьютер работает изнутри, начиная с самой базы — с карманного фонарика.

Scientists may have uncovered a surprising secret behind why life exists at all. A new study suggests that the Universe’s fundamental constants — the deep physical rules that govern everything from atoms to stars — appear to sit within an incredibly narrow “sweet spot” that allows liquids to flow properly inside living cells. Even tiny shifts in these constants could make blood too thick, water too sticky, or cellular motion... Read more

Философия автотестов: управление, поддержка и флаки

Привет, меня зовут Смирнов Владимир, и я отвечаю за тестирование торгового бэкенда в EXANTE. Разработка кипит, регрессионные наборы автотестов растут - всё это сопровождается хаосом и различиями тестовых окружений, из-за чего неизбежно растёт и число нестабильных падений (ака флаки), за завесой которых могут теряться реальные проблемы. Как мы регулярно поддерживаем автотесты в приемлемом состоянии и стараемся не тратить на это слишком много времени? Об этом и поговорим. Читать далее Read more

Self‑service деплой: как перестать ждать DevOps и ускорить команду

Когда деплой превращается в очередь к одному DevOps-инженеру, команда быстро теряет скорость: разработчики ждут стенды, релизы зависят от ручных операций, а инфраструктурные специалисты тонут в однотипных заявках. В статье разбираем, как self-service подход и платформенная инженерия помогают убрать этот шлюз: автоматизировать деплой, выдачу окружений, базы данных и типовые операции так, чтобы разработчики получали автономию, а админы и DevOps занимались архитектурой, надёжностью и развитием платформы.
