A guide for anyone who needs a name for a product or business - existing or new. We'll tell you how to invent, evaluate and choose. We worked for three months on renaming the control panel with hundreds of thousands of users. We were in pain and really lacked advice at the beginning of our journey. Therefore, when we finished, we decided to collect our experience into instructions. We hope it is useful to someone. […]
Have you worked with China yet? Then the Chinese are coming to you. They know that there is no escape from them—you can’t escape from the planet. Zhongguo is the most developing country in the world.

This picture, by Arthur Kuzin (n01z3), quite accurately summarizes the content of the blog post. As a result, the following narrative should be perceived more like a Friday story than as something extremely useful and technical. In addition, it is worth noting that the text is rich in English words. I don’t know how to translate some of them correctly, and I just don’t want to translate some of them. The first […]
Today we are publishing the story of Andrey Vukolov’s transition to IT. His childhood passion for space once led him to study rocket science at MSTU.

We have been following the topic of using systemd in containers for a long time. Back in 2014, our security engineer Daniel Walsh wrote an article Running systemd within a Docker Container, and a couple of years later another one called Running systemd in a non-privileged container, in which he stated that the situation is not has improved a lot.

I knew that ASUS was preparing a laptop with two screens at the beginning of this year. In general, as a person who constantly monitors mobile technology, it has long been obvious to me that manufacturers are striving to expand the functionality of their products precisely by installing a second display. We are seeing attempts to integrate additional screens into smartphones. We see that by the same […]
Xiaomi surprised many by introducing the Mi Mix Alpha concept smartphone, which has a monstrous price of $2800. Even the curved Huawei Mate X and Samsung Galaxy Fold are put to shame at $2600 and $1980 respectively. In addition, for this price the user only gets a new 108-megapixel camera, no bezels or cutouts, no physical buttons, and a not particularly useful wraparound […]
