ArcaOS 5.1.2: как OS/2 добралась до UEFI и больших дисков

Несколько дней назад вышла ArcaOS 5.1.2. Это свежее обновление системы, которая продолжает жить на кодовой базе OS/2 Warp.

При этом поддержка классических BIOS-систем никуда не делась — загрузка и... Read more

What we've been playing - "I have learned the hard way that trusting others is a suckers game"

Hello and welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little about the games we've been playing. This week, everyone's playing Pokémon Pokopia apart from Bertie and Connor, who are arguably the staff members with the best taste - an observation I make completely unbiasedly. Connor does appear to have become quite evil, though, so I think it's best I distance myself from him as well. Read more Read more

Камень, меняющий историю рун: находка из Холе в Норвегии

Люди вырезают знаки на камне тысячелетиями — достаточно вспомнить египетские стелы или античные надписи. Но в истории рунического письма недавно была сделана находка, которая может серьезно изменить привычную хронологию.Во время раскопок в норвежской коммуне Холе ученые обнаружили фрагменты камня с рунами. На первый взгляд — очередной древний артефакт, один из тысяч подобных в Скандинавии. Однако радиоуглеродный анализ материалов из соседних захоронений показал неожиданное: камень оказался значительно старш Read more

There’s a version of loneliness in your 40s that has nothing to do with being alone. It’s looking at the life you built exactly the way you planned and realizing you forgot to include yourself in it.

The loneliness of midlife isn't about lacking company. It's about realizing you spent two decades building a life so efficiently optimized that you edited yourself out of it, and now the person everyone relies on is a performance with no one inside. Read more

Краткая история искусственного распознавания запахов: от разработок Figaro Engineering до машинного обучения

Полупроводниковые приборы довольно быстро внедрились во все области науки и техники, путь, а начатые в 1940-е годы исследования влияния газов на электрофизические характеристики полупроводников поставили на повестку дня и обратную задачу – определения газов по изменению этих характеристик полупроводника, и это заняло гораздо больше времени.
