The Wall Street Journal reports: Cohen said GameStop has a commitment letter from TD Bank to provide up to $20 billion in debt.

В iOS 26 у UISlider появился liquid-glass-вид и физика доводки (settle) после того, как пользователь отпускает палец. Если честно, я не проверял, как это выглядело в старых версиях и как оно работало, так как до iOS 26 ни в своих проектах, ни в тех, что я писал на работе, я не использовал стандартный компонент, так как его внешний вид никого не устраивал. У такой доводки есть побочный эффект: если в... Read more ›
