В 1896 году математик Эрнст Цермело пришёл к Людвигу Больцману с доказательством. Он взял теорему Пуанкаре о возвращении и показал: если любая система рано или поздно возвращается в исходное состояние — значит энтропия вселенной тоже периодически убывает. Что противоречит второму началу термодинамики. Что ломает всю статистическую физику Больцмана.Больцман не стал отрицать математику. Он согласился: да, убывает. Просто ждать нужно так долго что это число не помещается ни в одну запись.... Read more ›

Статья о наболевшем.Есть удобная, почти благородная формулировка: «рынок плохо воспринимает новые технологии». Она красивая, интеллигентная и вежливая, поэтому почти наверняка неправильная. Но проблема, конечно, вовсе не в рынке, а в том, что до рынка ещё надо добраться. А до него, как правило, сидит цепочка людей, которые либо не понимают, что им показывают, либо понимают слишком мало, но с очень большим апломбом. Разделить боль Read more ›

Когда до релиза остаётся день, а полная регрессия занимает три, тестировать «самое важное» уже недостаточно. Нужно быстро понять, какие проверки первыми дадут сигнал о критичных дефектах: что связано с изменениями, деньгами, данными, интеграциями, частыми пользовательскими сценариями и зонами, которые уже ломались раньше. В статье разбираем, как выстроить порядок регрессионных проверок, чтобы не делать вид, будто сокращённая регрессия равна полной, а честно управлять рисками перед выпуском. Читать далее Read more ›
