Processor Wars. The story of the blue hare and the red tortoise

Submitted by

The modern history of the confrontation between Intel and AMD in the processor market dates back to the second half of the 90s. The era of grandiose transformations and entry into the mainstream, when the Intel Pentium was positioned as a universal solution, and Intel Inside became almost the most recognizable slogan in the world, was marked by bright pages in the history of not only the blue, but also the red […]

How to write easy texts

Submitted by

I write a lot of texts, mostly nonsense, but usually even haters say that the text is easy to read. If you want to make your texts (letters, for example) easier, run here. I didn’t invent anything here, everything was from the book “The Living and the Dead Word” by Nora Gal, a Soviet translator, editor and critic. There are two rules: verb and no clerical. A verb is [...]

IT in the school education system

Submitted by

Greetings, Khabravians and site guests! I'll start with gratitude for Habr. Thank you. I learned about Habré in 2007. I read it. I was even planning to write my thoughts on some burning issue, but I found myself at a time when it was impossible to do this “just like that” (possibly and most likely I was wrong). Then, as a student at one of the leading universities in the country with a degree in Physical […]

Funtoo Linux 1.3-LTS End of Support Notice

Submitted by

Daniel Robbins announced that after March 1, 2020, it will stop maintaining and updating the 1.3 release. Oddly enough, the reason for this was that the current release 1.4 turned out to be better and more stable than 1.3-LTS. Therefore, Daniel recommends that those using version 1.3 plan to upgrade to 1.4. In addition, a second “maintenance” release for […]

MVP grew into a product or my experience with MVP in 2019

Submitted by

The great 2020 is coming soon. It turned out to be an interesting year and I decided to publicly summarize it a little, since my infrequent notes were interesting to the Habr Universe community and I always shared what worried me. Instead of an introduction, I have a project that started with an idea from my friend. I still remember that conversation over tea on a rainy day [...]

Summary: Top 9 Technology Breakthroughs of 2019

Submitted by

Alexander Chistyakov is in touch, I’m an evangelist at vdsina.ru and I’ll tell you about the 9 best technological events of 2019. In my assessment, I relied more on my taste than on the opinion of experts. Therefore, this list, for example, does not include driverless cars, because there is nothing fundamentally new or surprising in this technology. I didn't sort the events in the list by […]

Fun Statistical Facts Compilation #2

Submitted by

A selection of graphs and results of various studies with short annotations. I love such graphs because they excite the mind, although at the same time I understand that this is no longer about statistics, but about conceptual theories. In short, the computing power needed to train AI is growing seven times faster than before, according to OpenAI. That is, it moves us away from “Big Brother” [...]
