659 People who always volunteer to take the group photo instead of being in it aren’t being helpful — they’ve found the one socially acceptable way to remove themselves from the frame without anyone asking why, and that quiet self-removal is the most visible invisible thing a person can do in a room full of people who never notice who’s missing from the picture until years later when someone asks “wait, where were you?”

People who always volunteer to take the group photo instead of being in it aren’t being helpful — they’ve found the one socially acceptable way to remove themselves from the frame without anyone asking why, and that quiet self-removal is the most visible invisible thing a person can do in a room full of people who never notice who’s missing from the picture until years later when someone asks “wait, where were you?”

Behind every group photo is someone who jumped up to take it — not out of kindness, but because they've mastered the art of being present while staying invisible, erasing themselves from their own life one perfectly timed volunteer moment at a time.

[Перевод] Может ли большая языковая модель обладать сознанием?

Мы уже устали от потока статей на тему "ИИ или статистический попугай?". Но тема "возможно ли сознание в машине?" не перестаёт быть одной из самых важных для человечества по состоянию на сегодня, май 2026 года.

Rust Will Save Linux From AI, Says Greg Kroah-Hartman

Linux stable kernel maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman says Rust can help Linux deal with a flood of AI-discovered security bugs (namely Dirty Frag, Copy Fail, and Fragnesia) by preventing common C mistakes around memory, locking, error handling, and untrusted data at build time rather than during human review. It's "not a silver bullet" and does not mean rewriting the whole kernel, but he said new drivers and subsystems will increasingly use... Read more

Apple Developing iPhone Anti-Snatching Feature That Locks Stolen Phones Instantly

The option will use the gyroscope, accelerometer, and other sensors to determine when an iPhone has been grabbed. It'll also rely on a paired Apple Watch to detect when the iPhone has suddenly moved away from the owner's wrist. Once the iPhone is... Read more

Использование SNMP Trap/Inform сообщений в мониторинге сети

В этой статье я попробую рассказать о том, в каких случаях для выявления неисправностей в сети может быть полезно, помимо опроса оборудования, принимать сообщения о наступившем событии от устройства. Мы разберём, как работает гарантированная доставка информации о событии, чем Inform лучше чем Trap и в чём сложности его использования. Немного углубимся в детали работы Trap/Inform-сообщений, а закончим простым примером настройки Zabbix. Надеюсь, материал получился интересным и оригинальным. Читать далее Read more

Quote of the day by Carl Jung: “Loneliness does not come from having no people around, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.”

Carl Jung wrote this line in one of his later works, somewhere in the 1950s, and the line has, since, become one of those quotes that floats around the internet attached to various images of solitary figures looking out windows. The line gets quoted, in most cases, as a piece of moody literary observation about ... Read more Read more

The economist John Maynard Keynes predicted in 1930 that his grandchildren would be working roughly fifteen hours a week by the early twenty-first century — and the strange thing is that, technologically, he was approximately correct

It is unusual for a prediction to be half right and half wrong at the same time, but that is basically what happened in the case of John Maynard Keynes. The technology arrived. The leisure did not.  In 1930, as British unemployment was climbing toward Depression-era levels, Keynes wrote a short essay called Economic Possibilities ... Read more Read more
