Samsung announced that the Galaxy S26 series is soon to snag AirDrop support via Android’s Quick Share menu in an upcoming update. This comes as no shock, as Google told us this would happen back in early February, though, the company didn’t specifically name Galaxy S26. Once that update hits Galaxy S26 devices, users will...

[Перевод] Учёные представили новое понятие: «межпланетная зона обитаемости»

Любой человек, интересовавшийся темой поисков внеземной жизни, наверняка слышал о «зоне обитаемости» вокруг звезды. Она определяется как орбитальная полоса (диапазон расстояний от звезды), в которой температура как раз подходит для того, чтобы жидкая вода собиралась на поверхности каменистой планеты — это хорошее приближение условий, которые, как считается, существовали на ранней Земле. Но что произойдёт, если такая жизнь не останется на попавшей в эту зону планете, аналогичной Земле? Если она, подобно... Read more

Longevity researchers found that people who age slowly on the outside share a specific relationship with time that most people lose somewhere in middle age — they stopped counting years and started counting moments of genuine absorption

I noticed something odd a couple of years ago while having coffee with a friend’s mother. She’s in her mid-seventies, still sharp, still energetic, still the kind of person who makes you forget you’re talking to someone decades older. I asked her what she’d been up to that week, and instead of giving me the ... Read more Read more

Я написал кэш для API на Go за 120 строк кода — и PostgreSQL перестал быть узким местом (ускорение в 7 раз)

Если API начинает тормозить, первое решение обычно очевидно — добавить Redis. Но иногда оказывается, что проблема гораздо проще. В одном из сервисов PostgreSQL начал упираться в повторяющиеся запросы. Одни и те же данные запрашивались тысячами клиентов. Практически каждый HTTP-запрос заканчивался одинаковым SQL-запросом. Любопытство победило — вместо готового решения был написан небольшой кэш прямо внутри сервиса. На это ушло примерно полчаса. Результат оказался неожиданным: некоторые эндпоинты ускорились п Read more
