Одна из самых неприятных особенностей production-проблем заключается в том, что они почти никогда не происходят тогда, когда разработчик готов их исследовать.Во время разработки всё работает. На тестовом стенде тоже всё выглядит нормально. Логи кажутся вполне достаточными, а диагностическая информация — продуманной и аккуратно организованной. Но затем в production внезапно появляется странная проблема: соединение иногда сбрасывается без видимой причины, один запрос из нескольких тысяч начинает вести себя ин Read more ›

Помните программу «Сто вопросов взрослому», где герою задают прямые и неудобные вопросы, на которые нельзя ответить отговорками? По-моему, это отличный формат и для общения с отделом разработки. Особенно когда приходится защищать перед техлидами нестандартные решения — например, миграцию вообще без использования облачного API.В идеальном мире миграция работает как часы: контроллер подключается к платформе по API, автоматически создает сети, разворачивает машины и переносит данные.

10 апреля 2019 года человечеству показали оранжевый бублик. Журналисты назвали его «первой фотографией черной дыры». Через час картинка была у всех — мемы про глаз Саурона, шутки про пончик, антропоморфизация, заголовки «ученые сфотографировали невидимое».Проблема в том, что это не совсем фотография.Точнее сказать, это очень странная фотография: если бы вы использовали телескоп горизонта событий (англ. EHT — далее по тексту) «как камеру» и нажали кнопку, вы бы получили черный квадрат и... Read more ›

Last year, the company said that during pre-release tests involving a fictional company, Claude Opus 4 would often try to blackmail engineers to avoid being replaced by another system. Anthropic later published research suggesting that models from other companies had similar issues with "agentic misalignment." Apparently... Read more ›

cURL creator Daniel Stenberg says Anthropic's hyped Mythos bug-hunting model found only one confirmed low-severity vulnerability in cURL, plus a few non-security bugs, after he expected a much longer list. He argues Mythos may be useful, but not meaningfully beyond other modern AI code-analysis tools. "My personal conclusion can however not end up with anything else than that the big hype around this model so far was primarily marketing," Stenberg... Read more ›
