Once again, while playing Heroes, I thought about what a castle from a game could look like in 3D, but all I had was a low quality screenshot.If you prefer the video format, I will leave a link to the video at the end of the post.

An anonymous reader shares a report: Generative AI offers remarkable efficiency gains while presenting a profound challenge for the global IT services industry -- a sector concentrated in India and central to its export economy.

Однажды британский изобретатель Джон Шеперд-Бэррон остался без пинты эля. Он был крайне зол. Вечером он решил заскочить в банк снять денег. Но лондонские банки закрываются очень рано (традиция такая), и он пошёл домой трезвым. Лёг в ванну и начал думать. Видимо, он ещё и очень хотел есть, поэтому думал про автомат с шоколадками, которые в отличие от денег можно было получить круглосуточно. 27 июня 1967 года первый банкомат Шеперда-Бэррона был...

![[Translation] A Quick Guide to Setting Up SNMPv3](https://times42.com/media/4/1/4/10333414_640x200.jpg "[Translation] A Quick Guide to Setting Up SNMPv3")
Setting up a v3 user on the server-side agent for the default Linux snmpd (net-snmp package). Out of scope: SNMP traps and read-write (rw) users.SNMP version 3 allows packet transmission in encrypted form, making it safe to transfer telemetry over public networks without the risk of exposing either authentication information (analogous to a community string) or the data stream itself, which is encrypted using a symmetric algorithm with a shared...

The Cisco IOS/IOS-XE operating system is a source of inspiration for many other vendors. The internet is full of guides on how to configure a typical Cisco router for SOHO scenarios. However, unlike consumer-grade routers, configuring something like Cisco IOS requires caution. If you don’t think things through, the router may start "living its own life" and end up, for instance, as a DDoS amplification tool. Let’s dive in Read more ›

![[Translation] Building Debian Packages for PHP Extensions](https://times42.com/media/2/9/3/10334293_640x200.jpg "[Translation] Building Debian Packages for PHP Extensions")
Historically, we’ve ended up using a few rather obscure PHP extensions—written and barely (if at all) maintained by their original authors—that aren’t available in standard Debian package sources.We stick to the principle of “do it right, and it’ll work right,” which means Slackware-style dropping binaries into the system outside of package managers is frowned upon.So instead, we’ll be building proper .deb packages for PHP extensions—without breaking compatibility with the existing...

I needed to create a category panel for placeable items in the UI — like the ones you see in city-building games. As a legacy, I inherited a ready-made UENUM, which may be modified in the future.Naturally, I didn’t want to manually create and tweak every single widget — especially knowing that the list of categories might change later. I wanted something simple and reusable: just run a For each... Read more ›

Armenia is a lucky country. Back in the 1990s somebody lobbied Synopsys, the #1 leader in the Electronic Design Automation market, to create a division there. It was joined by Mentor Graphics / Siemens EDA, another EDA leader, then NVidia. Synopsys Armenia became the largest Synopsys division outside the US Silicon Valley and Boston, although the Taiwanese may tell you otherwise. Since Synopsys and Mentor make software used by chip...

![[Translation] Custom structure serialization in Unreal Engine](https://times42.com/media/1/5/2/10359152_640x200.jpg "[Translation] Custom structure serialization in Unreal Engine")
Let’s say you’ve created your own USTRUCT in C++ and now you want to serialize it.Usually, it’s enough to simply mark the desired fields with SaveGame. But here’s the problem — in order for this to work, the fields themselves must support serialization.Unfortunately, one of our variables doesn’t.In my case, it’s a struct called FNonSerializableStruct. Because of that, only the second struct gets serialized, even though we marked both with... Read more ›
