The Verge reports: The news comes as Nintendo is making a bunch of changes to the rest of its lineup due to EU regulations requiring user-replaceable batteries. Starting this summer, the company says it will start introducing.

Почему всё, что мы должны были делать для живых людей, мы в итоге делаем для неживого интеллекта

Контекст для человеков всегда был важен. На онбординге всегда ломалось много мотивации и employee experience; над передачей знаний и снижением bus factor трудились и тимлиды, и HR-менеджеры, и даже выделенные KM-специалисты. Всё это делалось для людей, и делалось с весьма переменным успехом.Для ИИ-агентов мы делаем ровно то же самое, но с повышенным рвением, скоростью и отдачей. Вливаем максимальный контекст, пишем подробнейший промпт. Строим волты и описываем весь мир в понятном... Read more

Не просто регулярка — почему ELIZA была сложнее, чем вы думали

На первый взгляд ELIZA Джозефа Вейценбаума кажется чем-то примитивным. Практически набором костылей из регулярных выражений, который тупо менял местами «я» и «вы» и иногда задавал уточняющие вопросы. Да, в массовом сознании она так и осталась игрушкой из 60-х, наивной попыткой обмануть пользователя парой строк кода. И если вы думаете, что про ELIZA уже все давно сказано и разжевано, спешим вас удивить.Почему эта программа, изначально задуманная как пародия для демонстрации поверхностности... Read more

Бенчмаркая Regex: конструктор показал 10 мкс, первый вызов — 1307

Проверить строку регулярным выражением в .NET можно по-разному, но совет всегда один: включите RegexOptions.Compiled или возьмите генератор. Замеры это подтверждают.А вот подготовка выражения оказалась не там, где её меряют: конструктор занимает 10 микросекунд, а первая же проверка на этом объекте — ещё 1307. Разобрался, куда уходит разница, и заодно нашёл границу, на которой статический Regex.IsMatch резко замедляется. Читать далее Read more
