The petition against Sony's decision to kill PlayStation physical discs has over 170,000 signatures

You may scoff at how little real-world change petitions typically produce, but you can't deny that this particular campaign has a lot of user support behind it. The Don't Kill the Disc Change.org petition, which was launched in the wake of Sony's bombshell decision to end physical disc manufacturing in January 2028, has amassed over 170,000 signatures at the time of writing.

Технический долг — это не только legacy: как мы уменьшаем разброс решений между Go-сервисами

Когда компания растёт из одного продуктового направления в несколько, технический долг начинает выглядеть иначе. Проблема уже не в «старом коде», устаревших зависимостях или сложной поддержке legacy-системы. Долг начинает накапливаться в расхождении инженерных решений между сервисами.Для нас в QIC digital hub это особенно заметно на фоне миграции на новый Go-бэкенд. Исторически платформа развивалась на разнородном стеке: разные части системы были написаны на разных технологиях. Сейчас мы постепенно переезжа Read more

Ни ИСУП, ни регламенты. Единственное, что делает проекты управляемыми

У вас есть дорогая ИСУП, которую внедряли полгода. У вас есть регламенты, ради которых лучшие люди месяцами отрывались от работы, чтобы описать, как надо работать. Формально сделано всё, но проекты все равно живут своей жизнью, важные инициативы буксуют, а проблемы выявляются слишком поздно.Причина проста. Регламенты, которые должны управлять проектами, на практике почти никто не использует – какие-то правила давно устарели, а какие-то погребены в недрах 200-страничного документа. ИСУП же автоматизирует... Read more

We assume AI is coming for everyone’s job, but a 2025 Stanford study tracking payroll data found the damage is concentrated by age: employment for 22-to-25-year-olds in the most AI-exposed roles fell roughly 13%, while older workers in the very same jobs were barely touched

Ask most people what AI is going to do to work, and you get a version of the same answer: it’s coming for everyone, and your age won’t shield you. It’s a tidy fear, and it sounds fair. But  payroll data tells a different and more uncomfortable story — the early strain isn’t spread evenly, ... Read more Read more

A new study modeling six of history’s deadliest heatwaves found that conditions had already crossed the threshold for human survival, and every single one of those events stayed below the wet bulb temperature long treated as the line between danger and death

For roughly two decades, a single number has anchored scientific and policy discussions about the upper limits of human heat tolerance: 35 degrees Celsius on the wet-bulb thermometer. Above this threshold, the theory holds, the body’s primary cooling mechanism — the evaporation of sweat from the skin — becomes physically incapable of removing heat fast ... Read more Read more
