Some writing advice from Project Hail Mary’s Andy Weir

Andy Weir has done pretty well when it comes to adaptations. His first novel, The Martian, was turned into a movie in 2015, and the Ridley Scott-directed picture earned more than $600 million at the box office. And Project Hail Mary just had a huge opening weekend that puts it on track to be one […]

People who still look young in their 60s and 70s aren’t fighting aging — they stopped doing the things that accelerate it, and the difference between those two approaches is the difference between swimming against a current and simply getting out of the water

I ran into an old colleague at a café last month. We hadn’t seen each other in about fifteen years. He looked, honestly, almost exactly the same. Same energy, same sharp eyes, same easy posture. Meanwhile, another guy I used to work with, roughly the same age, looks like he’s aged two decades in one. ... Read more Read more

Security Week 2613: уязвимости в дешевых устройствах IP-KVM

Исследователи компании Eclypsium в свежем отчете сообщают об обнаружении целого набора уязвимостей в четырех пользовательских адаптерах IP-KVM. Такие адаптеры, как следует из названия, позволяют удаленно управлять компьютером, эмулируя клавиатуру, мышь и внешний дисплей. Компрометация таких адаптеров, соответственно, позволяет полностью перехватить контроль над управляемым устройством. В Eclypsium справедливо предположили, что дешевые (от 30 до 100 долларов) пользовательские устройства будут хуже защищены,. Read more

[Перевод] Самые холодные «звёзды» в галактике могут оказаться инопланетными мегаструктурами

С тех пор как физик Фриман Дайсон впервые предложил эту концепцию в 1960 году, «сфера Дайсона» стала святым Граалем для охотников за техносигнатурами. Считается, что высокоразвитая цивилизация могла бы построить «сферу» (или, согласно нашему более современному пониманию, «рой» из более мелких компонентов) вокруг своей звезды, чтобы собирать (почти) всю её энергию. Мы знаем, по крайней мере теоретически, что такой рой может существовать — но как бы он выглядел на самом... Read more

Про музеи

Как обычно, статья посвящена имеющимся у меня идеям, которые я не могу воплотить сам, но, возможно, они будут полезны другим. Сейчас речь пойдет о технических музеях. Недавно я  посетил 2 музея в Москве: Музей Времени и Часов и Музей Истории Телефона. Отличные музеи: богатая коллекция, приятный персонал, уютная атмосфера, демократичная цена (а в музей Времени и Часов вход вообще бесплатный). В общем, горячо рекомендую их для посещения.  Читать далее Read more

Лучший математик мира использует AI каждый день. Вот что он понял

Двадцать лет. Столько Кеплер перебирал случайные теории о том, как устроена Солнечная система. Платоновы тела, вписанные между орбитами планет. Музыкальные гармонии небесных сфер. Астрологические корреляции. Он пробовал всё подряд — и большая часть оказалась мусором.Но в этом мусоре нашлись три закона планетарного движения. На них Ньютон потом построил всю классическую механику.Когда я услышал эту метафору в свежем интервью Теренса Тао, меня пробило. Это же LLM. С temperature=1.0. Генерирует тысячу гипотез, Read more
