Почему Минобрнауки боится ИИ и правда ли, что дипломные работы утратили смысл?

Глава Минобрнауки Валерий Фальков считает, что из-за развития искусственного интеллекта привычные курсовые и дипломные работы теряют смысл и уже не показывают реальный уровень подготовки студентов. Министр уверен: что работало 10-20 лет назад, сегодня оказалось под вопросом – ИИ меняет правила высшего образования, а единых норм его использования в вузах до сих пор нет. Более того, как вангует наш министр, в будущем дипломные работы могут вообще исчезнуть, а вместо них студентов... Read more

PostgreSQL для бэкендера: 10 фич, которыми мало пользуются, а зря

Вы храните в PostgreSQL пользователей, заказы и платежи — а потом проект обрастает Redis для очереди, отдельным поисковиком и самодельными блокировками через таблицу locks. Иногда это оправдано. Но часто типовые бэкенд-задачи закрываются прямо в базе: атомарно, транзакционно, с индексами и без лишней сетевой болтовни.Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Тимур Исламгулов.

Why Trump is losing his war against algae

In addition to Iran, inflation, and the courts, President Donald Trump has been fighting a losing war against another opponent these past weeks: pond scum.  As part of his broader effort to “beautify” Washington, DC, ahead of the nation’s rapidly approaching 250th birthday, President Trump wanted to clean up the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and turn […] Read more

The shallow authoritarianism of Trump’s Reflecting Pool

What should one make of the president’s mounting obsession with the Reflecting Pool? On the surface, it’s ridiculous. Noting that the pool was full of algae and not reflecting as well as it should, President Donald Trump launched an expensive beautification effort — repainting the bottom and trying chemical treatments to treat the algae. The end […] Read more
