Месяц назад начал делать собственный язык программирования Nova с Claude Code. За это время агенты автономно закрыли около трёхсот инженерных планов, написали около 120 тысяч строк Rust (компилятор, рантайм, кодоген), почти две тысячи проходящих тестов и собственную стандартную библиотеку на Nova. Один человек физически такой объём не вытянет — но и автономия даётся не бесплатно.Рассказываю про четыре категории сбоев, которые встречаются регулярно — и про дисциплину, которая их ловит.

The Xiaomi 18's panel will allegedly have "2K" resolution, which is an improvement over the Xiaomi 17, as well as ultra-narrow bezels, and large rounded corners. The phone's... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Now sites have a new way to spy on their visitors: measuring subtle interactions with their solid-state drives. The technique, named FROST (fingerprinting remotely using OPFS-based SSD timing), allows sites to monitor other sites a visitor is viewing and what apps are open on their devices. The technique, laid out in a research paper (PDF), exploits a side channel, a form... Read more ›

"Possible applications range from the... Read more ›
