I’m 66 and I sold the business I built over two decades for more money than I ever thought I’d see — and I spent the first week staring at my bank account trying to figure out why I didn’t feel anything, and I finally understood that the money was never the point, the building was the point, and once it was gone I had to meet the version of myself who wasn’t building something anymore

After decades of 5:30 AM wake-ups and building something from nothing, he discovered that staring at all those zeros in his bank account felt exactly like staring into an empty toolbox—the money meant nothing without the work that defined him.

A cave in New Zealand has yielded fossils from a lost ecosystem that existed about 1 million years ago, including a possible flying ancestor of the kākāpō. The discovery reveals that volcanoes and climate upheaval were reshaping the country’s wildlife and driving extinctions long before humans arrived. Read more

Уволен, но не ушёл: два слоя защиты от инсайдера

Класс угроз в корпоративной безопасности «Insider threat» подразумевает два сценария: кто ушёл, но остался в системе — и кто ещё здесь, но уже уходит. Это разные угрозы, и они требуют разных инструментов. Два кейса из AI Innovation Lab — о том, как AI закрывает оба. Читать далее Read more

Из ядра Linux выпилили strncpy: шесть лет, 362 коммита, одна функция

19 июня Линус Торвальдс влил merge, который убрал из ядра Linux функцию strncpy — шесть лет работы, 362 коммита, семьдесят человек ради одной функции стандартной библиотеки C. Разбираю, почему «просто заменить небезопасную функцию» в C совсем не просто: strncpy только выглядит как «безопасный strcpy» из-за параметра n, а на деле это даже не строковая функция, а реликт fixed-width полей из AT&T Unix 1979 года. Главное в истории не сам выпил,... Read more

Профессиональное выгорание: симптомы, причины и способы восстановить внутреннюю опору

Немного раннее я писал лонгрид о том, почему наступает выгорание и как с ним справляться. Это достаточно актуальная история для людей из IT, а особенно сегодня - во времена адаптации к работе с ИИ. Здесь хочу поделиться выжмкой из лонгрида. Конечно, это больше похоже на краткий перессказ, но постарался выделить главные мысли оттуда.Я знаю людей, которые ведут идеальный таск-менеджер, следят за почтой, делают ретроспективы, расставляют приоритеты — и всё равно...

On September 9, 1947, Grace Hopper’s team at Harvard pulled a dead moth out of the Mark II computer’s relay, taped it into the logbook with the note ‘first actual case of bug being found,’ and preserved the page that gave software its oldest metaphor

On September 9, 1947, engineers at Harvard's Computation Laboratory pulled a moth from Relay 70 of the Mark II computer and taped it into the logbook. The word 'bug' was already 70 years old — and that's exactly why the joke worked. Read more

The United States keeps roughly 374 million laying hens, and over 60% of the world’s eggs come from cage systems where thousands of birds share the same air, water, and wire floor

The American laying flock now stands at roughly 374 million birds, most of them housed on about 67 square inches of wire each. A look inside the cage system that still produces over 60% of the world's eggs — and the heat, lawsuits, and broken pledges now reshaping it. Read more

How old you feel may matter more for your future than how old you actually are: in long-running studies, people whose ‘subjective age’ runs younger than their birth certificate tend to stay healthier, keep sharper memories and even live longer

Here is a finding that stuck with me. Across three big American studies tracking more than 17,000 people, those who felt roughly eight, eleven and thirteen years older than their actual age had 18%, 29% and 25% higher mortality risk respectively. The figure tracked not their chronological age, but how old they felt. The age ... Read more Read more

When YouTube launched in 2005, the very first video ever uploaded was a 19-second clip of co-founder Jawed Karim standing in front of the elephant enclosure at the San Diego Zoo, saying nothing particularly meaningful about elephants having long trunks — and the video remains live on the platform today with more than 350 million views, as one of the most-watched home videos in human history

The first video ever uploaded to YouTube is not an event, not a viral phenomenon, not a curated piece of content, and not particularly interesting on its own terms. It is a 19-second clip of a 25-year-old man standing in front of an elephant enclosure at the San Diego Zoo, observing that elephants have long ... Read more Read more

In December 2024, Google announced that its Willow quantum computing chip had completed a calculation in roughly five minutes that would have required the world’s fastest classical supercomputer approximately 10 septillion years — longer than the current age of the universe by a factor of approximately a quadrillion — in what Google’s quantum AI team called a demonstration that the chip had entered a ‘beyond-classical’ regime

The headline number is the kind of figure that is hard to absorb without somehow flattening it back into ordinary language. Ten septillion years is 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years. The universe is approximately 13.8 billion years old. The ratio between those two numbers is approximately one quadrillion. If the Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory — ...

Fujitsu engineers could remotely alter subpostmaster accounts without their knowledge — and the Post Office told courts for years that they couldn’t

For fifteen years, the Post Office told courts that Horizon's branch accounts could only be altered by the subpostmaster at the counter. Fujitsu engineers in Bracknell could rewrite them remotely — and the denial of that capability is the load-bearing beam under more than 700 wrongful prosecutions. Read more

We imagine that hitting the big goal — the promotion, the house — will bring lasting joy, but feel strangely flat once we arrive. Psychology has a name for this: the arrival fallacy

I am not a psychologist, and what follows is reading and reflection on a handful of studies, not advice about your life. The research here describes tendencies in groups of people, not laws that apply to everyone the same way, so take it as a lens rather than a verdict on how you in particular ... Read more Read more
