But Meta certainly knows his name - in 1992, his seminal cyberpunk novel Snow Crash coined the phrase "Metaverse" to describe a virtual reality world experienced through VR goggles. It inspired many key VR developers - and in 2021, Facebook decided to rename its entire company to […]

The most painful thing about having parents who love you but don’t quite know you is that they will spend the rest of their lives describing a son they invented to people who will never meet the one you actually became.

My mother told a story about me at a dinner party in 2019. I wasn’t there. The story got back to me through a cousin, the way these things do, slightly rounded at the edges from the journey. In the story, I was a confident young man who had built a successful business through sheer ... Read more Read more

AI не убил профессию джуна. AI убил иллюзию о джуне

Сегодня в обсуждении AI часто звучит тезис, что джуны индустрии больше не нужны и учиться программированию бессмысленно. Я с этим тезисом не согласен. Под словом «джун» рынок объединил две разные категории: выпускника инженерной программы и человека, который три месяца смотрел видеолекции и собрал три pet-проекта. AI давит на вторую категорию, первую почти не трогает. Настоящих джунов и так было мало. Они нужны индустрии больше, чем раньше. Ниже: что должен знать... Read more

Как сайты собирают цифровой отпечаток пользователя — почему VPN больше не спасает (О Fingerprinting)

Я раньше был уверен, что понимаю, как работает отслеживание в интернете. Очистил cookies - чист. Включил VPN - спрятался. Поставил блокировщик - стал почти невидимым. Звучит логично, правда?Проблема в том, что всё это работает только на уровне, который уже давно не является основным.Современные сайты не обязательно знают, кто ты. Им это и не нужно. Достаточно собрать достаточно признаков, чтобы отличить тебя от всех остальных. Версия браузера, разрешение экрана, поведение мыши,... Read more

Юзабилити‑тестирование без иллюзий, или почему технических тестов недостаточно?

Знакомая история: команда полгода шлифовала функционал, тестировщики уничтожили все баги, а пользователи уходят. Аналитик разводит руками, поддержка задыхается от тикетов, маркетинг угрожает продакту, а продакт – дизайнеру. В это время CFO считает расходы и грустно вздыхает. Больно видеть, как много появляется на рынке таких продуктов, прошедших технические проверки и проваливших испытание пользовательским опытом. Идеально работающих, но никому не нужных.
