Recently a small crowd paid to watch robots boxing, reports Rest of World. (Almost 3,000 people have now watched the match's 83-minute webcast.)

Made by Unitree, the dominant Chinese robot maker, they weighed in at around 80 pounds and stood 4.5 feet tall, with human-like hands and dozens of joint motors for flexibility. The.

I said yes to a project last Tuesday that I didn’t want to do. It wasn’t a big project. It wasn’t even a particularly important one.

С формами в Next.js проблема обычно начинается не на уровне кнопки submit. Кнопка как раз почти всегда работает. Настоящая путаница начинается позже, когда форма уже живёт в проекте какое-то время. В одном месте ошибка показывается под полем, в другом только общей строкой сверху. Где-то кнопка блокируется на pending, а где-то можно отправить запрос несколько раз подряд. Клиент считает данные валидными, а сервер отвечает, что правило нарушено. Поле уже зелёное, а... Read more ›

Привет. Я фронтенд-разработчик. По мнению тех, кто, по мнению некоторых, перекладывает джейсончики туда-сюда, я крашу кнопочки. Но сам я себя идентифицирую иначе: я тоже перекладываю джейсончики, и у меня всё точно так же, как у них. Даже архитектура. У меня тоже есть контроллеры, сервисы и хранилища, и я также обрабатываю запросы пользователей. Даже больше, я делаю HATEOAS, «тру» RESTful, если хотите.

Будь то езда на велосипеде или вязание свитера, есть некоторые действия, которые мы выполняем, не задумываясь.Обычно их связывают с «мышечной памятью» — представлением о том, что наше тело может запоминать, как выполнять сложные задачи, и со временем научиться делать это автоматически.Но действительно ли у мышц есть память? И какую роль в этом играет мозг?Давайте разберёмся, что говорит наука. Читать далее Read more ›

В процессе работы с фреймворком LangChain была обнаружена существенная проблема в чат-классах (ChatOpenAI, ChatDeepSeek и др.) при интеграции с различными провайдерами и агрегаторами LLM. Ни один из них не сохраняет содержимое блока рассуждений (reasoning content) в финальном ответе, что увеличивает время ожидания ответа пользователем и негативно сказывается на UX ИИ-приложений, использующих CoT-модели.В данной статье я расскажу как можно решить эту проблему на примере модели stepfun/step-3.5-flash и провай Read more ›

Продолжая сборку компьютера, следующим в очереди на покупку рассматривался блок питания. Выбрать его было непросто, так как имелись чёткие критерии, которым он должен был соответствовать: цвет кабелей — обязательно белый, мощность — не менее 650 Вт и адекватная цена. Проведя в закладках браузера больше времени, чем хотелось бы, остановили выбор на Gigabyte UD850GM PG5W в белом исполнении. Мощность этого блока питания оказалась немного выше заявленных требований, но цена была очень... Read more ›

Недаром оно настолько чётко отложилось в моей памяти, что я до сих пор помню кадры тех лет.Ведь тогда у нас не было возможности легко зайти в интернет и посмотреть видео- или фотообзор почти на любую модель...
