Slashdot reader Kirkman14 writes: A year before the Web opened to the public, Texas entrepreneur Don Lokke was trying to syndicate weekly political cartoons to bulletin board systems.

Когда программист впервые слышит слово «архитектура», он обычно представляет что-то скучное: диаграммы, стрелочки, коробочки, совещания на три часа и человека, который запрещает писать код.А потом проходит несколько лет.И внезапно оказывается, что проект, который «быстро накидали», начинает разваливаться от любого изменения.Добавили одну кнопку — сломался импорт.

Расширение pgpro_result_cache в Postgres Pro Enterprise решает эту проблему на уровне СУБД: результат тяжёлого запроса сохраняется в разделяемой памяти и при повторном обращении возвращается за миллисекунду — без сканирования, без нагрузки на процессор, прозрачно для приложения.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from 404 Media: Skyrocketing hard drive and storage costs caused by the AI data center boom are making it more expensive and more difficult for digital archivists, academics, Wikipedia, and hobby data hoarders to save data and archive the internet. Specific drives favored by some high profile organizations like the Internet Archive have become far more expensive or are difficult to find at all,... Read more ›

Apple and Intel have reportedly reached a preliminary agreement (paywalled; alternative source) for Intel to manufacture some chips used in Apple devices, after more than a year of talks and pressure from the Trump administration.
