Сериализация one-nio: от истоков к поддержке JDK 25

Привет, Хабр! В этой статье я расскажу об эволюции подсистемы сериализации one-nio — фреймворка для создания высоконагруженных сервисов, работающего в Одноклассниках с 2012 года. Прошлой осенью я работал над обновлением подсистемы и добавил в нее новый режим работы, совместимый с актуальными версиями JDK.Ситуация, с которой мы столкнулись, довольно прозаична. Библиотеке больше десяти лет, и экстремально быстрая сериализация (превращение объекта в последовательность байтов и обратно) с самого начала строилас Read more

Most people assume Dubai became rich from oil, but oil now accounts for less than 1% of the emirate’s GDP — down from 50% in the 1980s — with tourism, trade, and aviation doing the work instead

Dubai is routinely treated as an oil city because it is wealthy, Gulf-based and visually associated with the wider United Arab Emirates. Its economy now looks very different. Trade is its largest directly measured sector, while finance, transport, property, tourism and aviation carry much of the rest. The familiar claim that oil has fallen from ... Read more Read more

JPMorgan, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, PNC, and other major banks have reportedly explored acquiring Fiserv's debit-card networks, STAR and Accel, in a move that could help them bypass federal caps on debit-card transaction fees. A law limits the fees big banks can charge merchants, but only if the transactions are routed through an outside network. There are no caps on these interchange fees over a bank-owned network, however. The... Read more

FCC To End Biden-Era Rule That Forces ISPs To List All Their Fees

The FCC plans to roll back broadband label rules that require ISPs to itemize all passthrough fees. Under the proposal, providers could instead list a single "up to" amount for location-based charges. It would also allow ISPs to link to pricing labels rather than display them prominently, while eliminating machine-readable pricing files. Ars Technica reports: ISPs routinely advertise prices much lower than those actually charged to consumers on their monthly... Read more
