Недавно попалось на глаза одно очень интересное видео с динамическими шкалами по популярности разных языков программирования по годам (вроде как, начиная с 1980х). Удивительно, сколько всего и как много придумало человечество. И как быстро меняются тренды, а еще - сколько всего уникального уходит в тень истории. Вот был такой Лисп. Принято считать, что Лисп - это что-то из учебников по истории программирования. Где-то между перфокартами и первыми компиляторами. Условный артефакт.... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Just over a year ago, the Trump Administration issued an executive order meant to accelerate the development of nuclear power in the US.

After 50 years of searching, astronomers say they have finally found evidence of a long-sought "wind" blowing from Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. "Unless a black hole exists in a perfect vacuum, it must blow a wind somehow.
