Важные нюансы апгрейда ноутбука Thinkpad P16 Gen 2 для его превращения в почти ультимативную мобильную рабочую станцию

Будучи преданным поклонником линейки ноутбуков Thinkpad от компании Lenovo, вот уже около 15 лет я использую и в работе, и в быту исключительно такие ноутбуки.К слову сказать, у меня до сих пор “в строю” ноутбуки Thinkpad X220, Thinkpad w520 и Thinkpad P50, которым всегда найдутся интересные задачи.

[Перевод] Что будет со звездой, если она поглотит первичную чёрную дыру?

Мы не знаем, существуют ли в реальности гипотетические первичные чёрные дыры (ПЧД). Теоретически они должны были образоваться в самой ранней Вселенной, когда законы физики были совсем другими. У них не было звёзд-предшественников, они возникли в результате прямого коллапса плотно спрессованной субатомной материи. Теоретики задаются вопросом, могут ли ПЧД быть тёмной материей или её компонентом.Размеры этих гипотетических объектов остаются предметом споров, но, по некоторым оценкам, ПЧД находятся в диапазоне Read more

Все тесты зелёные, а байты разные: как я проверяю порты бинарных форматов

У меня было полторы сотни кросс-языковых фикстур, все тесты зелёные, и я был уверен, что мой Go-порт Yjs байт-в-байт совместим с оригиналом. Потом сравнил байты напрямую с канонической реализацией, и они разъехались: семантика сходится идеально, а на проводе документ толще.Юнит-тесты, roundtrip и даже конвергенц-тесты систематически пропускают баги совместимости, когда портируешь чужой бинарный формат на другой язык. Рабочий метод один: генерировать фикстуры из канона и требовать в CI побайтового совпадения Read more

История разработки Arduboy WOW

Приблизительно в начале 2025-го года я решил попробовать 3D-печать и разработку печатных плат. Одна идея мотивировала меня на это — сделать свою игровую приставку. Но больше всего мне хотелось, чтобы она была полноценной и без колхоза. Мне кажется, на днях я частично достиг эту цель, когда сделал свою приставку, которую назвал Arduboy WOW.В этой статье расскажу о том, как я начал знакомство с Arduboy через симулятор, сделал первый вариант приставки...

Как ИИ помогает Linux возвращать к жизни двадцатилетние видеокарты

В последние годы купить новую видеокарту стало заметно сложнее и дороже. Одной из причин стал бурный рост систем искусственного интеллекта, для которых требуются огромные объемы вычислительных ресурсов. Крупные компании активно скупают графические ускорители для своих дата-центров, что влияет и на обычный рынок. В результате многие владельцы компьютеров не спешат с обновлением и продолжают использовать уже имеющееся железо или ищут недорогие варианты на вторичном рынке. В мире open-source эта ситуация приве Read more

Расчёт электрических цепей. Первая часть

      В этой статье мы решим задачи по расчётам основных параметров цепей, содержащих конденсатор C, индуктивность L, сопротивление R с учётом температурной зависимости R(T) и без неё. Во всех задачах примем, что сопротивление меняется по линейному закону R(T)=R0(1+αT) (это верно в ограниченном диапазоне температур от -50ºС до 200ºС). Температура измеряется в градусах Цельсия ºС.R0- сопротивление при 0ºС.Рассеянием тепла в окружающую среду и зависимостью теплоёмкости от температуры мы пренебрежём.
