[Перевод] Новые правила контекстной инженерии для Claude 5

Ранее я уже писал о том, как лучше всего составлять промпты для нового поколения моделей Claude 5 и работать с ними итеративно, чтобы постепенно понять, что именно вы хотите создать.Но когда вы отправляете Claude сообщение, сам промпт составляет лишь небольшую часть получаемого моделью контекста. Значительная его часть собирается из системного промпта, навыков, файлов CLAUDE.md, памяти и других источников. Мы называем это контекстной инженерией. От нее во многом зависит результат работы...

С нуля до Junior DevOps в 2026 году. Часть 6.1. Terraform: Infrastructure as Code и создание инфраструктуры

В небольших проектах инфраструктуру можно создать вручную через веб-интерфейс облачного провайдера. Но если серверов десятки, а окружений несколько (Development, Testing, Staging и Production), ручное управление становится медленным и приводит к ошибкам.Поэтому часто в современной DevOps-практике используется Infrastructure as Code (IaC) — подход, при котором инфраструктура описывается в виде кода и может быть создана или изменена одной командой. Одним из самых популярных инструментов для этого является Ter Read more

Scientists are testing two promising ways to destroy PFAS, the stubborn “forever chemicals” that can accumulate in water and resist normal treatment. One method uses collapsing vapor bubbles to generate extreme heat and reactive molecules, while the other uses cold plasma and rising gas bubbles to pull PFAS to the surface and break them apart.

A protein called SORLA may act as a powerful defense against the toxic tau tangles involved in Alzheimer’s disease. Mice with extra SORLA had less tau accumulation, less brain atrophy, and healthier connections between neurons, while mice without it experienced more severe damage. The findings also revealed a possible drug target that could help control harmful activity in supporting brain cells. Read more

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function created by hundreds of entangled qubits, allowing some calculations to run on a laptop. Their results matched both theoretical predictions and simulations performed with a quantum computer. The method could open new paths for exploring quantum dynamics and materials. Read more

Researchers have uncovered a surprising culprit behind sleep loss in Alzheimer’s disease: the brain’s own immune cells. In mice with amyloid plaques, overactive microglia triggered inflammation that kept the brain from getting enough deep, restorative sleep. Temporarily removing most of these cells restored more than two hours of sleep per day, even though the plaques remained unchanged. Read more

Oxygen is disappearing from oceans, lakes, rivers, and coastal waters at an alarming rate, threatening aquatic life and weakening the natural processes that help regulate Earth’s climate. Scientists warn that this widespread deoxygenation is closely connected to other major planetary threats, including warming, pollution, biodiversity loss, and ocean acidification. Read more

Two elephant-sized South American sauropods were unusually well built for standing on their hind legs. Digital tests showed that their robust femurs handled the enormous forces better than those of larger species, especially while the dinosaurs were young. The upright pose may have helped them reach treetops, frighten predators, or impress potential mates. Read more

Scientists have discovered a hidden warning sign of skin damage that appears before collagen fibers visibly thin, break, or lose their connections. Using advanced light-based techniques, the team found that collagen’s carefully organized molecular “handedness” can collapse even while the tissue still appears structurally intact and contains the same amount of collagen. This suggests that skin may begin deteriorating at a much deeper level long before conventional imaging can detect... Read more

A new theoretical study offers a possible explanation for how the Universe can grow more complex without violating the second law of thermodynamics. Using a quantum gravity framework called Gravity from Entropy, mathematician Ginestra Bianconi found that the Universe’s total entropy may rise as space expands, even while entropy within each unit of volume falls. That decline could leave room for galaxies, stars, planets, and life to form locally amid... Read more
