Psychology says people who are kind to everyone and close to no one often weren’t always this way — there was usually a friendship, a relationship, or a family dynamic that taught them, clearly enough to stick, that letting someone fully in was indistinguishable from handing them a way to hurt you

I once knew a man who was, without exaggeration, the most likeable person in any room. He remembered your dog’s name. He’d top up your drink before you noticed it was empty. Waiters adored him. Strangers left him feeling like the most interesting person alive. I knew him for eleven years and I could not ... Read more Read more

Как я сделал оповещения о БПЛА через Яндекс.Станцию

Задача звучала как на полчаса: пусть Яндекс.Станция сама произносит вслух сообщения из Telegram-канала, без обращения к Алисе. По факту — несколько вечеров, потому что Яндекс не даёт из коробки простой возможности “скажи произвольный текст по внешнему событию”.

[Перевод] Басня о полусыром продукте

Представьте себе, что некий предприимчивый человек решил учредить свой первый бизнес. Он не умеет печь торты или замешивать тесто, но зато прекрасно знает рынок кухонного оборудования. Проанализировав все предприятия этой индустрии в Испании, он пришёл к выводу: если продавать новые печи пиццериям, кондитерским и пекарням, то достаточно занять буквально 10% рынка, чтобы стать миллиардером. И вроде бы 10% совсем немного, когда смотришь на эту цифру в таблицах Excel.Но учредитель мыслит... Read more
