Research says the 1960s and 70s accidentally produced one of the most emotionally durable generations in modern history — not through better parenting but through benign neglect that forced children to self-regulate, problem-solve, and develop emotional calluses that modern comfort has made nearly impossible to grow

Закон Конвэя внутри нас: инженерные системы ломаются по тем же причинам, что и люди

Linux пропитан магией. Тип файла определяется не по расширению, а библиотекой magic, которая смотрит на сигнатуру первых байтов.

Как компании на самом деле оценивают вас в первые недели — и что с этим делать

Большинство новичков приходят на работу с примерно одинаковой установкой: «три месяца, потом станет полегче, главное не облажаться в первую неделю».
