PlayStation3 Emulator Devs Politely Ask Contributors to Stop Submitting 'AI Slop' Pull Requests

Open-source PS3 emulator RPCS3 "has been around since 2011," Kotaku notes, and has made 70% of the PlayStation 3's library fully playable, "bolstered in part by the many users who contribute to its GitHub page." But their dev team "took to X today to very kindly and civilly request that users 'stop submitting AI slop code pull requests' to its GitHub page."

Then they immediately proceeded to tell the AI-brain-rotted tech bros attempting to justify their vibe-coding nonsense to kick rocks in the replies, wh

От «Туманности Андромеды» к «Часу Быка»: как Иван Ефремов показывал роль науки и технологий и чего им не хватало

Когда говорят о советской фантастике, обычно вспоминают Стругацких и их «Мир Полудня». Но концепцию развитого и гармоничного общества, где наука и технологии служат человеку, первым очертил другой автор, которого Стругацкие читали, с которым полемизировали и которому наследовали — Иван Ефремов. В трех романах о вселенной «Великого Кольца» он создал образ будущего, где знания не управляют людьми, а работают на них. Многие его идеи — что этика важнее чистого знания, что... Read more

Спиральная активность специфических нейронов буквально координирует мозг в пространстве-времени

Звучит как название сюжетной линии для сериала «Лост» или «Грань»? Суть в том, что наш мозг работает циклами, и сон/бодрствование это лишь один из многих примеров. Есть еще ультрадианные ритмы: 1,5 часа собран, в фокусе и продуктивности, а потом голова ватная, ноль концентрации, надо бы передохнуть. То есть сама природа циклов – это нечто привычно и естественное, что мы ощущаем каждый день. Но вот теперь открыта группа нейронов, которые буквально... Read more

Ну и пригодились тебе твои синусы?

Честный ответ: писать sin(x) руками в работе приходится далеко не всем. Подавляющему большинству — вообще никогда. И даже там, где синус трудится явно — в DSP, графике, геодезии — он давно спрятан за библиотеками: вы вызываете fft(), rotate(), routeTo(), а тригонометрию за вас написали тридцать лет назад.Так что если вопрос — «набирал ли ты когда-нибудь s-i-n на клавиатуре за деньги», у тригонометрии всё плохо.

Django-согласия и cookies под 152-ФЗ: версии документов, аудит и экспорт вместо одного чекбокса

Согласие на обработку персональных данных в Django-проекте часто начинается с одного BooleanField. Но затем оказывается, что недостаточно помнить только факт нажатия на чекбокс: пользователь мог видеть другую редакцию документа, отозвать согласие, выбрать лишь часть категорий файлов cookie, а администратору может понадобиться журнал действий и выгрузка в CSV.Я сделал для этого два полностью независимых Django-пакета с открытым исходным кодом: django-consent-152fz для юридически значимых согласий и django-co Read more

We treat the eight-hour day as an acceptable day’s work, but many celebrated figures did their best thinking in just four or five hours a day — and that deliberate rest may have been key

Ранее мы установили возможность использования алгебры для описания вектора интервала времени-пространства и характеристик состояния, описываемых алгеброй матриц Паули, например, таких как спин и поляризация. В этот раз я хотел бы показать механизм спектрального разложения мультивекторов в алгебрах Клиффорда и его физическую калибровку.
