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 ›

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 ›

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 ›

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.

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 ›
