When Alexander Fleming returned to his St. Mary's Hospital lab in September 1928, a contaminated petri dish would change medicine forever. The story of how a blue-green mould, a rotting Peoria cantaloupe and an artist's eye for the odd produced the drug that has saved half a billion lives.

Привет, Хабр! Я Денис Захаров — создатель станции E-station.За несколько лет мы прошли путь от первых прототипов, сваренных в гараже, до шоурумов в 20+ городов РФ и стран СНГ. В процессе познакомились с людьми и компаниями, которые делают крутые вещи: разрабатывают новые технологии в акустике, придумывают эргономичные клавиатуры и трекболы, делают ультратонкие мониторы (что то еще про них дописать). Вместе мы строим что-то большее, чем просто рабочее место — экосистему,... Read more ›

Если вы когда-нибудь приезжали на техосмотр или к механику, вы, скорее всего, видели, как он достаёт небольшое устройство, вставляет его под торпедо и смотрит в ноутбук.

С 1996 года он обязателен для всех легковых автомобилей, продаваемых в США, с 2001 — для бензиновых, а с 2004 — для дизельных легковых в Европе (стандарт EOBD). Сегодня OBD-II / EOBD присутствует в подавляющем большинстве... Read more ›

В спидране — скоростном прохождении игр — всегда находились энтузиасты, готовые искать преимущества не только внутри самой игры, но и в особенностях оборудования, на котором она работала. Иногда старые консоли, оптические приводы и картриджи становились источником необычных сбоев и эффектов. Со временем находчивые игроки научились использовать такие особенности для экономии драгоценных секунд. Одна из самых необычных историй такого рода — прохождение SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom («Губка Б Read more ›

Industrialized factories changed how the world produced physical goods: more output, lower costs, faster than anything that came before. Now a similar shift is happening with software. LLMs have lowered the barrier to writing code, increased individual output, and pushed organizations to think about software development as a production system. The standard software development lifecycle and CI/CD practices that have held for decades won't hold up under that pressure. That's... Read more ›

The release of Grand Theft Auto VI is a singular moment, the kind of massive cultural phenomenon that makes people want to go out and buy a console to play it. It is the preeminent modern example of what's known as a "system seller." There's almost certainly a large audience of people who were waiting […] Read more ›

For a long stretch of my life, I measured myself by the rung — what title sat next to my name, and how that lined up against the people I started out with. I would not have admitted it out loud, but that was the scoreboard I checked, not what it took to get anywhere ... Read more Read more ›

Sperm whales sleep nose-up in tight pods just below the surface, motionless and silent for ten to fifteen minutes at a time. Biologists had no documented record of the posture until a Royal Caribbean crew filmed one by accident in 2008. Read more ›

Late-life downsizing is often misread as surrender or morbid preparation.

Here’s how many of my mornings go. I sit down to write, open the research tab, and start reading for the angle I need. The angle does not come. So I check Slack, just for a second. Then a message pulls me into a thread, and the thread reminds me of a video, and the ... Read more Read more ›

In 2011, three researchers published a paper in Psychological Science that did something unusual with one of the longest-running datasets in American social science. Shigehiro Oishi and Selin Kesebir, then at the University of Virginia, and Ed Diener, at the University of Illinois and Gallup, took the General Social Survey and matched average self-reported happiness ...

Ask most managers what makes for a good day at work and you’ll probably get a predictable list. A bonus. A bit of recognition. A new title, a better chair, a free lunch on Friday.
