Постбеки на языке бизнеса: чек-лист для переговоров с партнёром

Привет, Хабр! Я работаю аналитиком в телекоме и занимаюсь лидогенерацией. В последнее время всё чаще ловлю себя на одной и той же картине: заказчик хочет подключить постбеки, между нами стоят коллеги из бизнеса, и пока требования доходят от одной стороны до другой — успевают трижды исказиться. Классический сломанный телефон.Решил написать эту статью, чтобы один раз объяснить тему на языке бизнеса. Не для того, чтобы читатель сам пошёл настраивать интеграцию —... Read more

Как мы с внуком подняли свой сервер вместо Gmail в деревне

— Дед, Gmail опять всё перекрутил. Письма теряются, половина — реклама, интерфейс другой, ничего не понятно. Ты же у нас главный по всяким проводам, придумай что‑нибудь.Я посмотрел на него, потом на старый систем ник в углу комнаты, на наш деревенский интернет, который любит падать в самый неподходящий момент, и вдруг поймал себя на мысли: а действительно, почему бы не попробовать завести почту «по‑стариковски» — на своём домене, на своём сервере,...

Как правильно реализовать кнопку «Назад» во Vue: просто о сложном

Сегодня разберём тему, которая кажется элементарной, но на практике вызывает кучу вопросов. Речь о кнопке «Назад» в приложении на Vue.Казалось бы, что тут сложного? Кликнули - ушли на предыдущую страницу. Но нет. Большинство разработчиков, даже с опытом, не до конца понимают, как устроена навигация в роутерах и как работает история браузера.

AI agents run on file systems using standard tools to navigate directories and read file paths. The challenge, however, is that there is a lot of enterprise data in object storage systems, notably Amazon S3. Object stores serve data through API calls, not file paths. Bridging that gap has required a separate file system layer alongside S3, duplicated data and sync pipelines to keep both aligned.The rise of agentic AI... Read more
