5G — это не про скорость. Почему новый стандарт меняет архитектуру связи

Привет, Хабр! Многие почему-то считают 5G только мобильным интернетом, который работает быстрее 4G. Но это только часть правды, ведь скорость действительно выросла, но главное изменение — в архитектуре. Новый стандарт превращает мобильную сеть из универсального канала передачи данных в программно управляемую инфраструктуру, способную одновременно обслуживать смартфоны, заводы, беспилотный транспорт и миллионы IoT-устройств с разными требованиями к качеству связи.Глава Минцифры Максут Шадаев сообщил, что сто Read more

«Сезам». Мини-АТС советской эпохи

Приветствую всех!Когда-то давно я уже рассказывал про такой артефакт из конца восьмидесятых как домофон «Сезам» с тремя ручками.

Заканчивается газ — дорожают чипы: новая проблема полупроводниковой отрасли

Производство современных чипов зависит не только от кремния, инженеров и литографов, но и от промышленных газов. Они используются для охлаждения пластин, очистки поверхностей и работы ключевых технологических процессов в целом. Пока поставки стабильны, эти материалы остаются незаметными. Но даже небольшие перебои сразу отражаются на стоимости и объемах выпуска полупроводников. Именно это сейчас и происходит. В Южной Корее дефицит высокочистого углекислого газа.

Я разобрал игру своего детства: многозадачность из 1990-го, потерянный язык уровней, виртуальные машины и тайм-капсула

В 1990-м Titus выпустила Fire & Forget II: гонку, где спорткар с пулемётом умеет взлетать. Я гонял её ребёнком с одной дискеты, а недавно полез внутрь её бинарника, просто посмотреть, как она устроена. Внутри оказалось неожиданно много: кооперативная многозадачность на голом 8086, собственный скриптовый язык с французскими мнемониками, две виртуальные машины, исполняющие один и тот же байткод, и полминуты игры самого разработчика, спрятанные в демо-записи.

Полгода я жил в одном и том же цикле. Собираешь скрапер, вечером он проходит все страницы, а к обеду следующего дня отдаёт сплошные капчи и 403.

Видели ли вы, как пользователи объясняют неудачи в продукте собственной глупостью?
