An anonymous reader quotes a report from the Associated Press: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said Thursday the artificial intelligence company "cannot in good conscience accede" to the Pentagon's demands to allow wider use of its technology. The maker of the AI chatbot Claude said in a statement that it's not walking away from negotiations, but that new contract language received from the Defense Department "made virtually no progress on preventing Claude's use for mass surveillance of Americans or in fully au

I asked 11 hospice nurses what dying people talk about in their final weeks and not one mentioned career achievements. Every single answer pointed to the same category of regret, and it had nothing to do with what they did or didn’t accomplish.

Hospice workers report that dying patients almost never talk about career achievements. The regrets that surface in the final weeks center overwhelmingly on relationships — the ones left unrepaired, the presence never fully given, the people who drifted away while life got busy. Read more

Бережливое производство на складе: почему успешное внедрение WMS начинается с Lean‑аудита, а не с закупки серверов

Привет, Хабр! На связи INTEKEY — системный интегратор в складской логистике. Мы разрабатываем и внедряем WMS, но парадокс нашей работы в том, что успешная автоматизация склада почти всегда начинается не с софта, а с разбора физических процессов.Часто компании решают, что проблему очередей, пересорта и сорванных окон отгрузки «закроет» новая программа. Закупаются серверы, терминалы сбора данных, планируются сложные интеграции. Но уже на этапе запуска выясняется: у складских операций нет единого стандарта,... Read more

For years, people with prediabetes have been told the same thing: lose weight or risk developing diabetes. But new research flips that idea on its head, showing that blood sugar can return to normal even without shedding pounds. The key isn’t just how much fat you carry—it’s where it’s stored. Harmful fat deep in the abdomen fuels inflammation and disrupts insulin, while fat under the skin can actually support healthier... Read more
