Do you remember how in the first part of the blockbuster film 'Men in Black', the top trainees shoot rapidly in all directions at cardboard monsters, and only Will Smith's character, after a brief contemplation, 'blows the brains' out of a cardboard girl holding a book on quantum physics? What does SD-WAN have to do with it? It's quite simple: today, the sales of solutions […]
At Microsoft, we are focused on the idea of enabling developers to create quality applications more quickly. One way to achieve this goal is by providing a range of products and services that cover all stages of the software development life cycle. This includes IDEs and DevOps tools, cloud application and data platforms, as well as operating systems […]
Historically, the IT industry has divided itself into two camps on any given issue: those 'for' and those 'against'. The topics of debate can be completely arbitrary. Which OS is better: Win or Linux? Should you use Android or iOS on your smartphone? Keep everything in the cloud or store it on cold RAID storage and lock the drives in a safe? Do PHP developers have the right […]
Ansible has become one of the most popular Configuration Management systems. After being acquired by Red Hat in 2015, the number of project contributors exceeded a thousand, and Ansible has likely become the most widely used deployment and orchestration system. Its vast range of applications is truly impressive. Ansible operates through SSH connections to remote hosts. It opens an SSH session, logs in, copies […]
Currently, Google supports only two operating systems: Android for mobile devices and Chrome OS for laptops. While they have much in common, they still do not form a unified ecosystem. The company is working to change this by first introducing the Play Store for Chrome OS and then adding support for Instant Tethering for many mobile devices and […]
A significant new release of the image viewer program qView 2.0 is now available, featuring a Qt-based graphical interface designed for efficient screen space usage. The program supports all popular image formats and, despite its minimalist interface, offers advanced capabilities such as controlling the playback of animated images, accessing file operation history, preloading images in a multithreaded mode, and basic operations […]
The developer of the system monitoring utility dstat, which has been in development since 2004 and provided a universal and more functional replacement for vmstat, iostat, mpstat, netstat, and ifstat, announced the discontinuation of the project due to a naming conflict caused by actions taken by Red Hat. Motivation dwindled after Red Hat decided to replace dstat with a new utility of its own design (from the Performance suite […]

This article is written as a follow-up to the previous one at the request of the community. In this article, we will explore the magic of numbers in decimal numbering. We will review not only the numbering accepted in the Unified System of Design Documentation (ESKD) but also in the Unified System of Software Documentation (ESPD) and the Complex Standards for Automated Systems (KSAS), since the Hub mostly consists of IT […]
Hello, Habr! Articles often present colorful images instead of electrical diagrams, which leads to disputes in the comments. Because of this, I decided to write a brief educational article on the types of electrical diagrams classified in the Unified System of Design Documentation (ESKD). Throughout this article, I will rely on ESKD. Let's take a look at GOST 2.701-2008 Unified System of Design Documentation (ESKD). Diagrams. Types and […]
