On June 24, 103 retro cars were in our city, and on July 7 they already finished in Paris. We decided not just to make a photo report, but to talk in detail about the rally, some of the cars, high-speed races and […]
In this article we will look at one very interesting vulnerability in the “domestic” operating system Astra Linux, and so, let’s begin... Astra Linux is a special-purpose operating system based on the Linux kernel, created for comprehensive information protection and building secure automated systems. The manufacturer is developing a basic version of Astra Linux - Common Edition (general purpose) and its modification Special Edition […]
Hi, I'm Katya, I haven't worked for a year now. I worked a lot and got burned out. I quit and didn't look for a new job. A thick financial cushion provided me with an indefinite vacation. I had a great time, but I also lost some of my knowledge and became psychologically older. What life without work is like, and what you shouldn’t expect from it, read under the cut. Free […]
There is an opinion that I often come across - it is impossible to study on your own; you need professionals who will guide you along this thorny path - explain, check, control. I will try to refute this statement, and for this, as you know, it is enough to give at least one counterexample. In history there are such examples of great autodidacts (or, in simple terms, self-taught): archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann (1822–1890) or […]

But it wasn’t enough for the management – they constantly ordered more and more new metrics, very quickly ceasing to use what […]

Metrics are bullshit, you say, and you’ll be right. In something. Indeed, when it comes to metrics, the very first metric that comes to mind is traffic. Many people like to meditate for hours looking at the traffic graph of their website. How cool it is to watch the line jump - back and forth, back and forth... And it’s even cooler when site traffic […]
Nintendo has announced that it will add a rewind feature for NES games on Switch on July 17th. In honor of this, the company released a special video in which it showed its operating principle.
