Разбираемся в многообразии видов тестирования

Когда начинаешь погружаться в тестирование, создается ощущение, что видов этого самого тестирования десятки, если не сотни, и все они постоянно используются в реальной работе. Из-за этого у многих возникает ложное ощущение, что для работы тестировщиком нужно разбираться во всех этих подходах и уметь применять каждый из них. Но более чем за шесть лет работы в тестировании я понял одну вещь: теория этой работы сильно отличается от практики.Чаще всего используется ограниченный...

Ловушка невозвратных затрат: как мозг доплачивает нам за бесполезные страдания

В последние годы наука переписала то, что мы знали о ловушке невозвратных затрат — и заодно показала, что выходить из неё всегда — не лучший совет. Разбираемся с последними исследованиями по теме: что не так с объяснением из учебника, где живёт эта ловушка физически, у кого настроена тоньше, и почему MoviePass обанкротилась именно потому, что её бизнес-модель работала слишком хорошо.

Отказоустойчивый запуск WSGI приложения. Обзор архитектуры Gunicorn

Gunicorn кажется простым, пока не сталкиваешься с эксплуатацией: внезапные ошибки 502, зависшие воркеры и странное поведение при перезапусках. За этими симптомами стоят вполне конкретные причины — от медленных клиентов и отсутствия буферизации до особенностей реализации GThread и механики Graceful Shutdown.В этой статье разберём реальные сценарии отказов, посмотрим, как менялась архитектура GThread в разных версиях Gunicorn, и соберём практичную конфигурацию с Nginx, Docker и Kubernetes, которая ведёт себя.

Тысяча конфликтов и одна LLM: как мы автоматизировали переход на новые версии Chromium

Каждые четыре недели Яндекс Браузер переезжает на новую версию Chromium. Обычный пользователь этого не замечает, но для команды разработки каждый такой переход — это более тысячи конфликтов кода и, как правило, несколько тысяч ошибок компиляции.В одном обновлении сходятся около 10 000 коммитов апстрима и примерно 1500 наших изменений. В процесс вовлекаются десятки разработчиков, а суммарные трудозатраты команды на один цикл составляют несколько человеко‑месяцев.Мы хотели сократить объём этой рутинной работы Read more

[Перевод] Чему именно учится word2vec?

Чему именно учится модель word2vec? Как она это делает? Ответы на эти вопросы мы поищем, анализируя то, как модель изучает представления данных при рассмотрении минималистичной, но достаточно актуальной задачи языкового моделирования. Модель word2vec — это широко известная предшественница современных языковых моделей. Но, несмотря на это, на протяжении долгих лет в распоряжении исследователей не было количественной прогностической теории, описывающей процесс обучения модели.

Scientists have uncovered a hidden mathematical secret inside the leaves of the Chinese money plant: a naturally occurring geometric pattern known as a Voronoi diagram, something typically associated with city planning, computer science, and network design. By mapping tiny pores and looping veins in the plant’s leaves, researchers discovered that the plant organizes itself using the same kind of elegant spatial logic humans use to solve complex distance problems —...

The report urged greater international cooperation and emphasized resilience, since breaches are "inevitable" -- particularly for emerging economies with weaker defenses.
