ScienceDaily · 05/20/2026 22:48 EDT

Reptiles have been growing armor in their skin on and off for hundreds of millions of years, but scientists never fully understood how it evolved. A massive new evolutionary study shows these skin bones appeared independently in multiple lizard groups rather than coming from a single armored ancestor. Even more astonishing, Australian goannas lost this armor long ago — then evolved it back again millions of years later.

Как я устал писать парсер под каждый прайс и сделал из этого библиотеку

У нас на проекте десятки прайсингов на топливо: один вендор шлёт CSV, другой Excel, третий JSON на вебхук. Данные одни и те же, но колонка цены везде называется по-своему, даты в трёх форматах, единицы то литры, то галлоны, а половина нужных полей просто отсутствует. И под каждый источник у меня жил отдельный парсер на сотню строк if-else. Сначала их было три, потом восемь, потом я перестал считать. А по-настоящему добило... Read more

Harness Bench: как оценить агентский harness и выбрать связку с моделью

Привет! Я Андрей Иванов, NLP-исследователь в R&D-лаборатории red_mad_robot.Когда мы собираем AI-агента, первым делом выбираем модель под задачу. Но в реальном приложении она не работает в одиночку, ей нужен агентский harness — программная обвязка. Поэтому выбирать приходится не просто модель, а связку «модель + harness».Чтобы делать этот выбор осознанно, мы создали Harness Bench — открытый фреймворк, который тестирует связки на реальных задачах в одинаковых условиях. В статье расскажу, как он устроен,... Read more
