Go there — I don't know where

Posted on

Once, I discovered a phone number form behind the windshield of my wife's car, which you can see in the photo above. A question arose: why is there a form, but no phone number? The genius answer was: so no one can know my number. Well… "My phone is zero-zero-zero, and don't think that's a password." […]

A long time ago, I decided for a laugh to prove the reversibility of the process and learn to generate JavaScript (or rather, Asm.js) from machine code.

Posted on

Today, I want to discuss what 'digital' means. Digital transformation, digital assets, digital products… These terms are everywhere today. In Russia, national programs are being launched, and even ministries are being renamed, but when reading articles and reports, you often come across vague phrases and unclear definitions. Recently, I attended a 'high-level' meeting at work, where representatives from a well-respected […]

QEMU.js: now seriously and with WASM

Posted on

A long time ago, I decided to demonstrate the reversibility of the process for laughs and learn to generate JavaScript (or rather, Asm.js) from machine code. QEMU was chosen for the experiment, and some time later, an article was written for Habr. In the comments, I was advised to switch the project to WebAssembly, and it was hard for me to abandon a nearly finished project… The work continued, but it was really […]

What is "digital transformation" and "digital assets"?

Posted on

Several years ago, Fabrice Bellard wrote jslinux — a PC emulator written in JavaScript. After that, there was at least Virtual x86. But as far as I know, they were all interpreters, while Qemu, also written significantly earlier by Fabrice Bellard, and probably any self-respecting modern emulator, uses JIT compilation of guest code into code […]

VRAR in the arsenal of digital retail

Posted on

"I created OASIS because I felt uncomfortable in the real world. I didn't know how to get along with people. I was afraid my whole life. It wasn’t until I realized that the end was near that I understood that despite how cruel and frightening reality can be, it remains the only place where you can find true happiness. Because reality […]

How to Completely Disable Windows Defender Antivirus on Windows 10

Although the built-in solution is sufficient for most users, there are situations where you may not want to use this program. For example, if you […]

I had a vision… Revelations of the new Nostradamus

Posted on

I had a vision of the future. Out of nowhere, during a mundane meal of mashed potatoes, I was overwhelmed by a wave of clarity that stunned and disoriented me, and when the wave receded, I was left with several phantasmagorical images. To ensure I wouldn’t forget them, I immediately transferred them to a file, and now I’m revealing them. I eagerly await April 12, 2026 – […]

Microsoft will release a set of PowerToys utilities for Windows 10

Unfortunately, these utilities are no longer functional in newer OS versions. But, […]

An attack by malicious encryptors on Git repositories has been reported

Posted on

There are reports of a wave of attacks aimed at encrypting Git repositories on services like GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket. Attackers are wiping the repository and leaving a message requesting 0.1 BTC (approximately $700) for data recovery from a backup (in reality, only commit headers are damaged, and information can be restored). So far, 371 repositories have been affected in this manner on GitHub. Some of the attack victims […]
