Когда я пытался делегировать ИИ-агентам написание кода для рабочих задач, то быстро наступил на все возможные грабли. В итоге на ревью и исправление ошибок уходило больше времени, чем ушло бы на самостоятельную разработку.Чтобы не отказываться от ИИ-помощников, нужно менять сам подход к взаимодействию с ними. В статье я разбираю механику основных проблем — деградации контекста (Context Rot), отсутствия долгосрочной памяти и неконтролируемой генерации кода. А также такой подход как spec-driven...

Я использую Linux 15 лет. Ну, то есть как использую: первые года три я его настраивал, а не использовал. Это разные вещи, и мне понадобилось позорно много времени чтобы это понять.Сейчас у меня Fedora. Из коробки. С GNOME. Почти без кастомизации. Я набираю в ней код, сижу в браузере, иногда монтирую видео для внутренних демок. Всё работает.Пятнадцать лет назад я бы от такого описания плевался. Как это «из коробки»? А... Read more ›

Разговоры о квантовых угрозах уже давно вышли за пределы научных лабораторий и стали частью повседневных обсуждений в IT-сфере.

Производители накопителей начали реагировать на эти вызовы раньше многих других игроков рынка.Western Digital в конце мая представила то, что можно считать первым в отрасли шагом к реальной...
