When British firms trialled a four-day week for the same pay, the real surprise was not output but the people: burnout fell for 71 percent of staff, and nearly nine in ten companies kept the shorter week long after the trial ended

In Britain’s biggest four-day-week trial, 71 percent of employees said they felt less burnt out by the end. That figure, not anything about profit or output, is the one that stands out. Whether the shorter week would hurt productivity had a fairly predictable answer. What it would do to people did not. We are writers ... Read more

JSX для Go: как маленькая разметка потянула за собой рантайм, компилятор и кучу компромиссов

Я не начинал с идеи написать «убийцу JavaScript». Честно говоря, такие заявления обычно только мешают думать.Сначала была гораздо более скромная мысль: мне нравится Go, мне нравится его простота, типизация и ощущение предсказуемого инструмента. Но когда дело доходит до интерактивного веб‑интерфейса, почти неизбежно оказываешься в другой вселенной: JavaScript, Node.js, сборщики, плагины, отдельная модель компонентов, отдельная экосистема.Это нормально. Веб таким стал не случайно. Но мне было интересно провер Read more

Apple Pulls Ability to Restore iPhone 5c, iPad Mini, and More

Apple has stopped signing several older versions of iOS for a group of legacy iPhone and iPad models, cutting off the paths to reinstall or downgrade the affected software. Apple will no longer validate over-the-air (OTA) or direct IPSW installs of the builds in question. Once a version is unsigned, there is no longer a way to restore or install it through Finder or iTunes. The change is narrower than... Read more

Из PLM Windchill в снабжение: low-code костыли для расчета потребностей в материалах

В ключе цифровизации и оптимизации, в компании, возник вопрос — как сократить время на закупку материалов для производства и сократить ошибки?

Вы уверенный в своих знаниях специалист, который точно знает, сколько времени понадобится на новую фичу? Или может вы нашли неприятный баг за день до релиза?

A whole generation of parents is learning to be grandparents over video call, holding a phone up to a baby who will know their face perfectly and their smell not at all

A quiet revolution has happened in family life over the last few years, and most of us slid into it without ever deciding to. Grandparenting, for a huge number of families, now happens mostly through a screen. A grandmother reads a bedtime story from another time zone. A grandfather plays peekaboo with a baby he ...

You’d think an AI copilot would widen the gap between star employees and everyone else but a Stanford/MIT study of 5,000 call-center agents found the opposite: it lifted novices’ output by about 34% and barely moved the veterans, narrowing the skill gap instead

The assumption almost everyone carries about a new tool: it pours rocket fuel on whoever is already at the front. Give the best people a sharper instrument and they pull further ahead. The gap between the stars and everyone else widens. That is the story we have mostly told ourselves about technology and work, and ... Read more Read more

The promise of AI was a worker who never sleeps, never books leave, and never asks for a raise. The reality is messier: for a growing number of firms, the machine meant to replace payroll is starting to look like a payroll of its own

Uber spent its entire 2026 budget for AI coding tools in four months. By April, after an assistant called Claude Code had spread across its engineering teams, the money set aside for the whole year was gone. The company then capped what any single employee could spend on such tools at $1,500 a month. A ... Read more Read more

There’s a German idea that explains why the most globally dominant companies in their field are ones you’ve never heard of — quiet, family-run, mid-sized firms that would rather own an obscure world market than ever be famous

If you own a dog, there is a reasonable chance its retractable lead was made by a company called Flexi, based in a town in northern Germany, which by its own account and most industry estimates holds around 70 percent of the world market for exactly that product and does nothing else. Its founder’s stated ... Read more Read more

An American pays a $969 list price for the same insulin-class weight-loss pen a German gets for around €59 — and the reason traces back to a century-old Danish rescue mission

Ozempic lists for roughly $969 in the United States and around €59 in Germany — the same pen, the same molecule, made in the same Danish factory. The reason winds back to a Nobel laureate's 1922 trip to Toronto. Read more
