Дубль один, дубль два: как я делала одну фичу дважды

Я бизнес- и системный аналитик, и у меня редкий кейс: две последние работы делают почти одинаковые продукты — по сути, конкурентные. Так что часть задач я делаю второй раз в жизни. Первый, как выяснилось, был генеральной репетицией. Жаль, никто не предупредил — я бы записывала.Оба продукта — CDP (Customer Data Platform) для маркетинга. По сути это база данных, которая собирает информацию о клиенте отовсюду и нарезает её в сегменты, —... Read more

У криптографов была «одна пуля в барабане». GPT-5.6 нашел вторую

23 июля Прабханджан Анант (Калифорнийский университет в Санта-Барбаре) и Амит Сахаи (UCLA) выложили на arXiv статью "Unconditional Unclonable Encryption", которая закрывает проблему, стоявшую перед квантовыми криптографами шесть лет. Но не меньше самого результата обсуждают короткий раздел в конце введения: конструкция и основные идеи доказательства были целиком сгенерированы агентом Codex на модели GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra.

The nervous system has no separate setting for a raised voice at home and a predator in the grass — the amygdala treats an unpredictable parent as a genuine threat, which is why some adults never fully come off high alert

Joseph LeDoux has spent decades explaining that the amygdala is not a fear center but a threat detector — and it makes no distinction between a predator in the grass and a parent whose mood cannot be predicted. That is why some adults never fully come off high alert. Read more

In 1994, Edward Deci and Richard Ryan showed that when a parent's warmth becomes contingent on performance, children quietly swap their own preferences for whatever keeps the peace — and the trade often holds for decades. Read more

Older adults who start giving away their most treasured things while they’re still alive aren’t being morbid or fatalistic — they’ve simply decided they’d rather watch the joy land in someone’s hands than leave it for a will to hand out once they’re gone.

There is a difference between leaving someone a treasured object and giving it to them. A will can transfer the watch, painting, recipe book or set of tools. It cannot transfer the moment in which the owner places it in another person’s hands, tells the story attached to it and sees whether the choice was ... Read more Read more

Antonio Damasio’s ‘somatic marker’ theory argued that bodily signals help guide decisions before conscious reasoning, and patients with damaged emotional circuits showed why intellect alone may not be enough

Antonio Damasio's patients had intact IQs, intact memories, and no ability to make a decision. Their brain injuries revealed a truth neuroscience is still catching up with: emotion is not the opposite of reason — it is the mechanism that makes reason work. Read more

Highly intelligent people are more likely to talk to themselves out loud, and cognitive research suggests this private narration actually improves problem-solving speed and working memory rather than signaling instability

Cognitive research shows that talking to yourself out loud isn't eccentric — it sharpens focus, boosts working memory, and speeds problem-solving. The stigma is cultural. The evidence is not. Read more
