The battle between OpenAI, Anthropic and Google spans revenue, models, server access and research talent. But as OpenAI and Anthropic barrel toward initial public offerings, public perception is also an important factor in the race as political backlash to the industry grows.OpenAI seems particularly vulnerable in PR after a series of awkward or embarrassing moments for its executives in the limelight. The challenge of managing such execs might help explain why the company hasn’t had a communications chief.

Оптимизация кода сервисов на Go под реальную нагрузку Когда сервис на Go начинает «тормозить» под реальной нагрузкой, проблема почти всегда не в самом языке и даже не в алгоритмах. Чаще всего узкие места лежат на уровне работы с памятью, сериализации данных и неочевидных накладных расходов рантайма. Если сервис упирается в сеть, базу данных или внешние API — оптимизация кода даёт ограниченный эффект. Но в CPU-bound сценариях (парсинг JSON, агрегации, обработка... Read more ›

HTAP — одна из главных тем в мире СУБД. Вокруг PostgreSQL массово появляются конструкции с внешними аналитическими движками со своими моделями хранения данных и ограничениями совместимости, однако бизнесу не совсем комфортно жить в архитектуре, где транзакционные данные находятся в одной системе, аналитика - в другой, а между ними - разного рода ETL, CDC и прочие parquet-файлы.

Meanwhile, Samsung and Apple shipments increased by 8.0%... Read more ›

Microsoft’s GitHub Copilot may have lost much of its early lead in the AI coding race to rivals like Anthropic and Cursor, but Microsoft thinks it has an advantage over those companies: roughly 100,000 software engineers who work for Microsoft. As we reported Monday, Microsoft leaders think they can develop coding models using the wealth of proprietary code those developers have written (and are writing now). It’s the latest example...
