Как-то вечером я поймал себя на том, что трачу по 20 минут на поиск цветовой палитры для каждого нового проекта. Coolors, Adobe Color, случайные пины в Pinterest — и всё равно ощущение «не то».

Осенью 2022-го мы добавляли в наш платёжный агрегатор новый способ оплаты: плательщик уходит по ссылке в приложение своего банка, подтверждает платёж там, а банк присылает нам нотификацию о результате. Песочница у банка была, формально. Отвечала статусами из позапрошлой версии протокола, а нотификации не присылала вообще; обещанные доработки ехали к нам дольше, чем наш дедлайн. Мы перестали ждать и написали двойника провайдера сами - по PDF со спекой, с тестом на... Read more ›

A Chinese Zhuque-2E rocket's upper stage broke apart shortly after last week's June 9 launch, likely creating 100 to 150 pieces of debris in a busy region of low-Earth orbit crossed by the ISS and lower-altitude Starlink satellites. Most fragments should reenter within months because of atmospheric drag, but experts say the incident adds to a worsening trend as China leaves more large rocket bodies in orbit while expanding its...

The impact could have dramatically altered Venus' spin and melted nearly its entire mantle. Universe Today reports: Venus' bizarre and extraordinarily slow retrograde rotation on its axis has long puzzled planetary scientists. But in a new paper presented at the recent European Geosciences Union General Assembly... Read more ›

TechCrunch's Zack Whittaker argues that the U.S. government's abrupt export-control order forcing Anthropic to pull its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models offline was "never about an AI jailbreak" threat. Instead, it was driven more by "personality differences" between the AI company and Trump administration. Security experts say the reported guardrail bypass did not justify the order and warn that the move sets a troubling precedent: the government can unilaterally... Read more ›

Reuters reports: Samih Souissi, ANSSI's chief of staff, said at the France Quantum conference that the agency would halt such certifications from 2027, and that businesses should be buying only quantum-safe products by 2030. ANSSI approval is required for use Read more ›
