On September 9, 1947, Grace Hopper’s team at Harvard pulled a dead moth out of the Mark II computer’s relay, taped it into the logbook with the note ‘first actual case of bug being found,’ and preserved the page that gave software its oldest metaphor

On September 9, 1947, engineers at Harvard's Computation Laboratory pulled a moth from Relay 70 of the Mark II computer and taped it into the logbook. The word 'bug' was already 70 years old — and that's exactly why the joke worked.

Расследуем проблемы terraform-provider-ovirt

Привет, Хабр. Я Михаил Фучко, технический продакт-менеджер SDN и Terraform в команде zVirt. Я продолжаю серию статей о пути, который мы проделали в процессе разработки собственного провайдера инфраструктуры для Terraform. В предыдущей части мы честно попробовали воспользоваться опенсорс-провайдером Terraform для oVirt и получили неоднозначные результаты (на самом деле вполне однозначные).  Эта статья посвящена анализу провала проекта terraform-provider-ovirt. Посмотрим на принятые решения, поищем первопричи Read more

Декларативное RPC вместо REST-ручек — победили сетевой бойлерплейт и вычистили код с помощью фреймворка Chord

Во многих проектах взаимодействие фронта с бэком до сих пор строится по классике: ручки, fetch, headers, дублирование типов. При таком подходе внушительная часть кода уходит на обслуживание сети, а не на саму бизнес-логику. Мы решили эту проблему через Chord — фреймворк сетевого уровня на базе JSON-RPC. Используем его уже более 2 лет. Эта статья для фронтенд- и фулстек-разработчиков, работающих с TypeScript и мета-фреймворками вроде SvelteKit, Next или Nuxt. В ней... Read more

Вы не знаете HTML. Мои вопросы об HTML с ответами

Хабр, привет!Меня всегда раздражали вопросы на проверку знаний HTML и CSS. На моей памяти я ни разу не встретил человека, который спрашивал что-то интересное.

In 1981, two researchers proposed that burnout is not simple tiredness but three separate collapses

In 1981, two psychologists published a short paper in the Journal of Organizational Behavior that quietly influences how a lot of us talk about being worn down by work. Christina Maslach and Susan E. Jackson introduced something they called the Maslach Burnout Inventory, a questionnaire, and four decades later it is still one of the ... Read more Read more

A quick note: I am not an economist, a psychologist, or an organizational scientist. This is me reading Gallup’s data and thinking out loud about it. The figures here are estimates and population-level patterns, not a diagnosis of your job or your team, and Gallup’s own causal claims are its framing of correlational findings, not ...

Sea otters keep a favourite rock tucked in a loose pouch of skin under each forearm, carry it between dives, and use it as a personal anvil to crack open shellfish, making them one of the few animals known to keep and reuse a single tool

Sea otters carry a favored rock in a loose pouch of skin beneath each forearm, balance it on their chests like a personal anvil, and reuse the same stone across dives — a tool-keeping behavior almost unheard of outside great apes and a few birds. Read more

When Apollo 11 splashed down in the Pacific in 1969, the recovered astronauts were sealed in a quarantine trailer for weeks because nobody could rule out lunar microbes, while around their capsule the ocean teemed with creatures far stranger than anything feared from the Moon

In July 1969, Apollo 11's crew was sealed in an Airstream trailer for 21 days while NASA tested moon rocks for life that wasn't there — meanwhile, the ocean beneath their splashdown site held vampire squid, 40-meter siphonophores, and single-celled organisms the size of dinner plates. Read more

The Wollemi pine was known only from ancient fossils until a park ranger rappelled into a canyon outside Sydney in 1994 and found a grove still alive, and the exact location is now a state secret guarded by Australian rangers

In 1994, a New South Wales park ranger abseiled into a hidden canyon outside Sydney and found a grove of conifers last seen in the fossil record 90 million years ago. The Wollemi pine's wild location remains undisclosed — and for biological reasons that have nothing to do with theatre. Read more
