Scientists exploring ancient seafloor rocks in Morocco discovered mysterious wrinkle patterns where they were never expected to occur. These structures are normally linked to microbial mats in shallow, sunlit waters, yet the rocks formed hundreds of feet below the surface in darkness. Evidence indicates that chemosynthetic microbes created the wrinkles, revealing that deep-ocean microbial ecosystems may have been more widespread than previously thought. Read more

Copy-on-Write в Swift: подготовка к собеседованию

За годы я сидел по обе стороны стола: и как кандидат, и как собеседующий — в том числе на позиции в крупные продуктовые компании. И именно Copy-on-Write раз за разом оказывался той темой, на которой видно разницу между «слышал слово» и «понимаю механизм». Тема звучит обманчиво просто — «копируем только при записи», — но крупняк любит докапываться до формулировок: не «массив копируется по значению», а когда именно копируется буфер, что... Read more

Django-style фильтры поверх SQLAlchemy: зачем я написал python пакет sqlalchemy-query-manager

TL;DR: я сделал sqlalchemy-query-manager — небольшой слой поверх SQLAlchemy для типовых backend-запросов. Он не заменяет SQLAlchemy, а добавляет более компактную запись для частых операций: фильтры в стиле number__gte=100, условия через Q, фильтрацию по связанным моделям, eager loading, CRUD helpers, агрегаты и просмотр итогового SQL. Идея в том, чтобы оставить SQLAlchemy в основе, но убрать повторяющийся код там, где запросы становятся слишком большими. Читать далее Read more
