UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said social media platforms should remove addictive infinite-scroll features for young users as Britain considers new child-safety measures. "We're consulting on whether there should be a ban for under 16s," Starmer told BBC Radio. "But I think equally important, the addictive scrolling mechanisms are really problematic to my mind. They need to go." Reuters reports: Britain, like other countries, is considering restricting access to social media for children and it is testing.

Simon Ritter joined Sun Microsystems in 1996 and spent time working in both Java development and consultancy. He's now written an opinion piece for InfoWorld warning that "Between 2029 and 2032, every currently supported long-term support (LTS) version of Java will reach end-of-support within a single three-year window." That's Java 17 in 2029, Java 8 in 2030, Java 21 in 2031, and Java 11 in 2032... On paper, this looks... Read more ›

Если посмотреть, как устроен наш сегодняшний мир, — на мой взгляд, неожиданно актуальным оказывается не Азимов со своими законами робототехники и не Стругацкие с их предсказаниями последствий информационной эпохи, а Сергей Снегов. Он угадал не столько технологии, сколько способы взаимодействия с ними, детально описав, как вычислительные системы становятся посредником между человеком и реальностью.Главная идея Снегова вовсе не техническая. Его интересовал человек. В мире трилогии «Люди как боги» технологии о Read more ›

В какой-то момент я стал для себя и своих коллег собирать статьи на habr про агентную разработку, которые с моей точки зрения были бы нам полезны. С 27.04.2026 начал это делать каждый день: просматривать все статьи в хабах ИИ, Java, Python, аналитики и тестировании. Решил сделать статью с этой подборкой, может кому будет интересно. В этой подборке только дата статьи, название и ссылка. Понял, что нужно хотя бы комментарий писать,... Read more ›

ПредисловиеЭта статья попалась мне на глаза на Reddit.И заинтересовала она по двум причинам. Во-первых, автор задаёт нестандартные вопросы об ИИ. Когда вокруг только бенчмарки и нытье по поводу того, что ИИ лишит всех работы, он смотрит внутрь ИИ каким-то свежим, незаезженным взглядом. Например, один из его вопросов: если мы учим модель на человеческих текстах, со всеми их страстями, то почему мы ожидаем, что она будет вести себя не как человек,... Read more ›

When Hans Wilsdorf's wife Florence died in 1944, the Bavarian-born founder of Rolex built a Geneva foundation that has owned every share of the company since 1960. Eight decades later, that grief-born structure is the reason Rolex can under-produce, never discount, and out-think every shareholder-owned competitor in luxury. Read more ›

A "growing wave" of Reddit's "promoted posts" are sending U.S. and European audiences to money-stealing scams that impersonate major news organizations including the BBC, the Financial Times, and The Guardian, according to new findings from Bitdefender Labs. "Domains are short-lived and rapidly rotated to evade detection," they write, noting that the impersonating sites apparently even use language "to falsely imply that the investment platform had been reviewed, approved, or vetted"...

Science magazine reports: For decades, string theory promised a "theory of everything" that described all particles and forces as tiny vibrating strings. Physicists hoped it could also solve one of the field's deepest problems: reconciling quantum mechanics with gravity. But as string theory grew increasingly elaborate — and experimentally unreachable — many physicists lost hope. Now, some researchers are revisiting the theory from first principles. In a paper in press... Read more ›

"Can a company take away something you've already paid for?" asks the BBC. "In the world of online video games, some already do." Publishers can decide to switch off a game's servers, often leaving it effectively unplayable.

In January, the group submitted a petition featuring nearly 1.3 million signatures to... Read more ›
