Асинхронный django: новые начинания

Add to bookmarks Don't show Habr

abetkin @ Habr 2 place · today 03:07 EDT

Здравствуйте, дорогие читатели! Сегодня - ещё одна статья из рубрики джангологии. Раньше я уже писал о своих идеях (1 и 2) о том, как сделать django асинхронным. Они основывались, вслед за sqlalchemy, на использовании гринлетов. Несмотря на то, что proof-of-concept был успешно получен, а трудностей - встречено меньше, чем ожидалось, я всё-таки отказался от этого подхода: во-первых, он уже применяется в sqlalchemy. Во-вторых, это ведёт к усложнению, и растёт так... Read more ›

По пути Японией пошли Китай и Южная Корея, и сейчас, когда региональная вычислительная школа ЮВА занимает наряду с США лидирующие позиции в сфере вычислительных технологий повторяется история с японским проектом FGCS. Только на этот раз речь идет не просто об умных суперкомпьютерах, а об ИИ и управлении криптовалютами и массивами big data, каковые были слишком сложными для их обработки с помощью традиционного ПО.

Windows 12 не будет: Microsoft делает ставку на ИИ и ARM

t3chnowolf (МТС) @ Habr · today 03:02 EDT

Слухи о Windows 12 ходили уже несколько лет. Кто-то ждал модульной системы с глубокой интеграцией искусственного интеллекта, кто-то — просто новой версии ОС с «нескучными обоями». Однако Microsoft решила пойти другим путем и продолжила развивать Windows 11. Компания регулярно добавляет в систему новые ИИ-функции и одновременно готовит ее к более широкому распространению устройств на базе процессоров с архитектурой Arm. Такой поворот событий сложно назвать неожиданным.

Riverside County has launched an 8-mile "smart freeway" pilot on northbound I-15 near Temecula, using roadway sensors and an algorithm to coordinate ramp meters and suggest speeds rather than widening the freeway.

Tardigrades can survive freezing near absolute zero, extreme radiation, and the vacuum of space by drying into glass-like tuns that suspend their biology until conditions improve

Tardigrades survive boiling, near-absolute-zero cold and the vacuum of space by curling into a desiccated 'tun' and vitrifying their cellular interior with disordered proteins and sugars that take over water's structural jobs. Fossil evidence suggests the trick is at least 250 million years old. Read more ›
