Из каких деталей собран скам на Avito

Всем привет! На связи Айнур Абдрахманов, аналитик сервиса проактивного мониторинга внешних цифровых угроз Jet CSIRT, также известный как исследователь, который тратит вечера на изучение телеграм‑каналов с обещаниями «пассивного дохода от 5000₽ в день». Мониторинг таких пабликов — это, если хотите, профессиональная привычка: там раньше всех появляются новые социальные схемы, там их обкатывают и оттуда они расползаются в массы. Хочу поделиться наблюдением — социальная инженерия эволюционирует. Вместо прямого. Read more

В статье я расскажу, как решал проблемы погружения в проект сначала вручную, а потом с помощью ИИ-инструментов и как мне удалось сократить путь от дней и недель до нескольких часов. Мой опыт пригодится QA-инженерам, которым приходится разбираться в новых проектах, систематизировать знания о продукте и поддерживать документацию в актуальном состоянии. Читать далее Read more

Как я искал идеальный промпт для сопроводительных писем (и что оказалось важнее модели)

Хотел понять, потянет ли маленькая локальная модель сопроводительные письма или без облака никак. Оказалось, главный рычаг не модель, а промпт: переписал инструкцию, и отправляемость прыгнула с 0% до 88%, а рекрутёр вслепую принял 6 писем-генераций из 8 за живые. Читать далее Read more

Как Хопфилд начал оттепель в зиме ИИ

В наше время нейросети рисуют картины, пишут дипломы, советуют, что посмотреть вечером, и многое другое. В любой утюг пытаются поместить умного ассистента. Но такое помешательство было не всегда. Искусственный интеллект несколько раз находился на грани полного забвения и чуть не остался пылиться на полках нереализованных технологий, как, например, атомолёты. Смерть ИИ могла случиться ещё на рубеже 1970–1980-х годов. Это был опасный кризис, когда мир компьютерных наук накрыла первая настоящая зима... Read more

Где в облачном бэкапе теряется контроль над данными — и как его вернуть

Заказывая бэкап облака, компания незаметно отдаёт наружу три вещи: доступ к данным, ключи шифрования и место хранения. Разбираю по пунктам, как вернуть контроль над каждой - end-to-end шифрование с закрытым ключом только у клиента, запись копий в свой S3, NAS или СХД на территории РФ, запирание выпуска сертификатов на роль owner - и как эта архитектура закрывает требования ФЗ-152. В конце - чек-лист, по которому имеет смысл проверять любой такой... 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

Dying Sun-like stars may not fade away quietly. As blobs of gas erupt unevenly from their swollen surfaces, each burst gives the star a tiny push in the opposite direction. Thousands of these random kicks could eventually break apart distant stellar pairs or, in rare cases, drive two stars into a violent collision. Read more

A naturally occurring compound found in foods such as wheat germ, mushrooms, and aged cheese may help older adults build stronger protection after vaccination. In a small pilot trial, researchers gave spermidine supplements to adults over 65 following their third COVID-19 vaccine dose. The biggest improvements appeared among people whose immune systems initially responded poorly, with higher antibody levels and stronger activity against several variants. Read more
