Western Digital announced new external drives for personal computers and game consoles at the gamescom 2019 exhibition in Cologne (Germany). Perhaps the most interesting device was the WD_Black P50 solid-state solution. It is said to be the industry's first SSD to feature a high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface that delivers throughput up to 20 Gbps. The new product is available in modifications [...]
Better late than never. Or how we almost made a serious mistake by not having support for regular Dockerfiles to build application images. We will talk about werf - a GitOps utility that integrates with any CI/CD system and provides management of the entire application lifecycle, allowing you to: collect and publish images, deploy applications in Kubernetes, delete unused images using special policies. […]
Chipmaker Qualcomm announced on Tuesday a new five-year patent license agreement with LG Electronics to develop, manufacture and sell 3G, 4G and 5G smartphones. Back in June, LG stated that it could not resolve differences with Qualcomm and renew the licensing agreement regarding the use of chips. This year Qualcomm […]
When it comes to monitoring the security of an internal corporate or departmental network, many associate it with controlling information leaks and implementing DLP solutions. And if you try to clarify the question and ask how you detect attacks on the internal network, then the answer will, as a rule, be a mention of intrusion detection systems (IDS). And what was the only […]
Main points or what this article is about The topic of the article is visual programming of the ShIoTiny PLC for a smart home, described here: ShIoTiny: small automation, Internet of things or “six months before vacation.” Concepts such as nodes, connections, events, as well as the features of loading and executing a visual program on the ESP8266, which is the basis of the ShIoTiny PLC, are very briefly discussed. Introduction or […]
I already said that I will be updating my video tutorials to CCNA v3. Everything you learned in previous lessons is fully relevant to the new course. If the need arises, I will include additional topics in new lessons, so you can rest assured that our lessons are aligned with the 200-125 CCNA course. First, we will fully study the topics of the first exam 100-105 ICND1. […]
Main points or what this article is about We continue the series of articles about ShIoTiny - a visually programmable controller based on the ESP8266 chip. This article describes, using the example of a ventilation control project in a bathroom or other room with high humidity, how the program for ShIoTiny is built. Previous articles in the series. ShIoTiny: small automation, Internet of things or “for […]
Google has announced that it will end the practice of assigning the names of sweets and desserts to Android platform releases in alphabetical order and will switch to regular digital numbering. The previous scheme was borrowed from the practice of naming internal branches used by Google engineers, but caused a lot of confusion among users and third-party developers. Thus, the currently developed release of Android Q is now officially […]
How we solved the problem of visualizing user cohorts in the Promopult service using Grafana. Promopult is a powerful service with a large number of users. Over the 10 years of operation, the number of registrations in the system has exceeded one million. Those who have encountered similar services know that this array of users is far from homogeneous. Someone signed up and “fell asleep” forever. Someone forgot the password and [...]
In August 1969, Ken Thompson and Denis Ritchie of the Bell Laboratory, dissatisfied with the size and complexity of the Multics OS, after one month of hard work, presented the first working prototype of the Unix operating system, created in assembly language for the PDP-7 minicomputer. Around this time, the high-level programming language Bee was developed, which a few years later evolved into […]
Several months have passed since the launch of our secure call to owner service. Currently, 325 people are registered on the service. A total of 332 objects of ownership are registered, of which 274 are cars. The rest is all real estate: doors, apartments, gates, entrances, etc. Frankly speaking, not very much. But during this time, some significant things have happened in our immediate world, [...]
Almost three years after the formation of the last significant branch, Apple introduced the release of the free printing system CUPS 2.3 (Common Unix Printing System), used in macOS and most Linux distributions. The development of CUPS is completely controlled by Apple, which in 2007 absorbed the company Easy Software Products, which created CUPS. Starting with this release, the license for the code has changed [...]
