Paramount Agrees to Postpone Warner Bros. Merger Until June 2027

Paramount Skydance has agreed to postpone its $111 billion Warner Bros. Discovery merger until five days after an antitrust trial or June 1, 2027, whichever comes first.

Как я потратил вечер, разбираясь, почему кэш в клоде, gpt и джемини — это три разных зверя

Устал переплачивать за одну и ту же память, которуе гоняю по кругу, и решил разобраться, как у кого на самом деле устроен кэш, а не просто верить строчке "у нас есть кэширование" и "так дешевле" в доке.Начал с клода, как с самой популярной тулы. Кэш там не работает сам по себе, нужно руками вешать cache_control: ephemeral на кусок промпта (тулы, системный промпт, длинный документ, что угодно стабильное). Ничего не закэшируется,... Read more

Sociologist Arlie Hochschild coined the term ’emotional labor’ in 1983 to describe flight attendants — four decades on, the same unpaid work has migrated into friendships, families and Slack channels

Arlie Hochschild's 1983 concept described the paid smile in an airline cabin. Four decades later, the same unpaid work runs through friendships, families and Slack channels — and the people carrying it are the last to notice they're working. Read more

Tardigrades can survive being boiled, frozen to near absolute zero, blasted with radiation, and shot into the vacuum of space, and they do it by dehydrating themselves into a glassy state that essentially pauses their biology until water returns

Tardigrades survive boiling, near-absolute-zero cold, radiation doses a thousand times the human lethal dose, and the vacuum of space by drying into a glassy state that pauses their biology. A protein they use to shield their DNA is now being engineered into cancer treatments. Read more

We tend to think perceptiveness is a gift some people are born with, but for many it’s a survival skill — the ability to feel tension before a word is spoken is often a nervous system that once needed to predict the storm

Stephen Porges named the process neuroception — the pre-conscious scan the vagus nerve runs on every room you walk into. For adults who grew up needing to predict a parent's mood, that scan never really turns off. Read more

Hyper-vigilance isn’t a personality trait — it’s a stress response first documented in combat veterans, and researchers later found the same scanning-for-danger reflex in children raised around unpredictable moods

Hypervigilance was first catalogued by psychiatrist Abram Kardiner in combat veterans returning from the First World War. Decades later, attachment researchers found the same threat-scanning reflex in children raised around unpredictable parental moods — the same nervous system pattern, learned in a very different room.

People who find it physically uncomfortable to look someone in the eye during a compliment aren’t insecure or evasive — they’re often the ones who take in emotional information so directly that full eye contact during something kind becomes almost too much to hold

The last time I paid someone a proper compliment, they looked at the floor like I’d dropped a twenty and were deciding whether to tell me. Not a “nice jacket.” The kind that names something true about who a person actually is. For years I read that gesture the lazy way. Shy. Awkward. Can’t take ... Read more Read more

When psychologists asked people to log what they were doing hour by hour, roughly 43 percent of daily behaviour turned out to be habit — done in the same place while the mind was somewhere else entirely

In the late 1990s, psychologist Wendy Wood paged undergraduates every hour and asked them to log what they were doing. About 43 percent of their behaviour turned out to be habit — performed in the same place while their minds wandered somewhere else. Read more

A person can be pleased with all of that and still miss the wider circle of people who once made ordinary life feel inhabited. This ... Read more Read more
