There’s a specific kind of person who answers ‘what do you want for dinner’ with ‘whatever you want’ and isn’t being easygoing. They genuinely lost access to the question a long time ago, in a house where wanting things drew the wrong kind of attention.

The reflexive "whatever you want" isn't easygoing — it's the sound of a faculty that hasn't been online in decades. Why some people genuinely cannot locate their own preferences, and what it takes to rebuild the signal.

Tardigrades can survive freezing near absolute zero, extreme radiation, and the vacuum of space by drying into glass-like tuns that suspend their biology until conditions improve

Tardigrades survive boiling, near-absolute-zero cold and the vacuum of space by curling into a desiccated 'tun' and vitrifying their cellular interior with disordered proteins and sugars that take over water's structural jobs. Fossil evidence suggests the trick is at least 250 million years old. Read more

Greenland sharks are the longest-lived vertebrates on Earth, with some individuals dated to the 1600s. New research reveals how they keep their retinas working for four centuries even as a copepod parasite chews at their corneas. Read more

Как тестировать HTTP-запросы к внешним сервисам в Python-приложениях: requests-mock, pytest-httpx и FastAPI

Не всегда стоит патчить ответ от внешнего HTTP-сервиса через mocker.patch. В таких тестах приложение возвращает ожидаемый ответ, но важная часть логики остаётся непроверенной: какой URL собрал клиент, каким методом ушёл запрос, какое тело было отправлено и как обработался ответ внешнего сервиса. В статье показываю другой подход: мокать не метод клиента, а сам внешний HTTP-сервис. Для клиентов на requests используем requests-mock, для клиентов на httpx — pytest-httpx. Так тесты остаются быстрыми... Read more

The unemployment rate looks fine because it’s hiding the only number that matters — workers aged 22 to 25 in AI-exposed jobs have quietly lost 16 percent of their employment since ChatGPT

The standard reassurance about artificial intelligence and work — that it will not cause mass unemployment, that history shows technology creates more jobs than it destroys, that the people warning about robots taking jobs have been wrong for two centuries — happens to be technically correct and almost entirely beside the point.
