A new survey revealed that 7 out of 10 Americans are against data center developers building projects within the vicinity of their homes. This is a massive increase from the late 2025 survey which showed that 47% of people are against AI data centers near their homes.

Можно ли доверять LLM как экспертам. Рассматриваю на примере ответов нейросетей с использованием поиска

FASA: архитектура ПО без слоёв и адаптеров. Спецификация

Большинство современных архитектурных подходов учат нас строить всё больше слоёв абстракции: контроллеры, сервисы, репозитории, адаптеры, транспортеры… Но что, если сложность системы растёт не из-за предметной области, а из-за самой архитектуры?В этой статье я представляю FASA (Flat Adaptive Software ARchitecture) — спецификацию, которая предлагает радикально простой ответ: всего три сущности, строгие правила зависимостей и никаких промежуточных слоёв.Вы узнаете, почему «плоский» граф компонентов может быть Read more
