Microsoft CEO opens up about last year’s failed TikTok deal

Last year, companies like IBM, Oracle, and Walmart were vying to buy TikTok, after the Trump administration threatened to ban the short video app. However, the most prominent and likely firm to acquire the app was Microsoft.

Экс-гендиректор Google: «Если вы хотите работать в ИТ и побеждать, придется вернуться в офис». Это конец удаленки?

Еще недавно руководители компаний видели в удаленке большие перспективы, но сегодня сотрудников все чаще приглашают вернуться в офисы. Мы в Beeline Cloud хотим поговорить о том, как меняется гибкий формат работы. Посмотрим, готовы ли специалисты лишаться дохода ради удаленки, какие скрытые мотивы менеджеров стоят за политикой «возвращения в офис» и почему «отмена» дистанта может быть временной.

We’re taught that failure is the price of ambition, but psychologists studying explanatory style found that what happens after a setback depends partly on the story a person tells themselves about it: those who see failure as permanent and personal are more likely to become helpless, while those who treat it as temporary and specific are more likely to keep going.

Ambition has a standard story about failure. You take the hit, learn the lesson, and keep moving. It is clean, motivational, and not quite true. Some setbacks become information. Others become identity. The difference is not only the size of the loss. It is also the explanation a person builds around it. Psychologists studying explanatory ... Read more Read more

Локализация уже скомпилированных React компонентов в node_modules

«Ghost in the Shell» 1989 и 2026: комедийный киберпанк-боевик как возвращение к корням?

В случае американского киберпанка на ум первым делом приходят «Нейромант» и «Матрица». Наиболее ярким примером японского киберпанка является «Ghost in the Shell» — в основном в виде двух полнометражек Осии и сериальной трилогии. С 7 июля 2026 года начала выходить новая аниме-версия. Выглядит она для привыкшего к «классике» непривычно и странно: студия Science Saru решилась на эксперимент. Она перенесла на экран в профессиональной анимации, дословно и покадрово, оригинальную мангу Масамунэ... Read more
