Digg Tries Again, This Time As an AI News Aggregator

Digg is relaunching again, this time as an AI-focused news aggregator rather than the Reddit-style community site it recently abandoned. TechCrunch reports: On Friday evening, the founder previewed a link to the newly redesigned Digg, which now looks nothing like a Reddit clone and more like the news aggregator it once was. This time around, the site is focused on ranking news -- specifically, AI news to start. In an email to beta testers, the company said the site's goal is to "track the most influential v

Откуда берут начало современные QoS-решения? История вопроса — первые телефонные линии в США, эрланг и ARPANET

Современная инфраструктура во многом держится на решениях для обеспечения качества обслуживания (QoS). Один из таких инструментов — PCEF, давно стал рабочей лошадкой сетевых операторов. В материале расскажем о том, как зародилась концепция QoS, и как она воплотилась в жизнь: начиная с первых телефонных линий на заре XX века и заканчивая выяснением вопроса, а что же считать «качеством обслуживания», над решением которого бились ученые 1970-х и 1980-х.

Are you filthy enough for a $700 portable shower? 

Hot showers, like electricity, are a luxury that's easy to take for granted.

Теория относительности — это синус. Мнимого угла

То, что свет нельзя обогнать, сложение скоростей, замедление времени — всё это стоит на обычном школьном синусе, которому угол сделали мнимым. Не метафора и не «похоже» — буквально та же функция.Давайте убедимся в этом сами.Это финал серии. В первой синус был показан тенью вращающейся стрелки, во второй — каталогом из сорока с лишним мест, где эта тень лежит. А в конце каталога была ремарка, что у синуса есть гиперболический двойник,...
