I was inspired to write this article by a translation that discussed how, by focusing on facial recognition systems, we miss the whole idea of mass data collection: a person can be identified using completely different data. Even people themselves use various methods for this: for example, the brain of a nearsighted person relies on gait recognition to identify people at a distance rather than trying to recognize their faces.

In April 2018, Jim Keller joined Intel to lead the development of processor architectures. In a recent interview, Jim admitted that he would like Intel to develop a completely new architecture every five years, although currently it happens once a decade.

Most people strive to be perfect. No, not to be, but to seem. There is beauty all around, rather than the world itself. Especially now, with social media.

I have never been particularly interested in the world of information technology, and I could hardly multiply matrices on a piece of paper. I never needed to, but to give you a little insight into the specifics of my work, I can share a wonderful […]
One of the most frustrating aspects of technical interviews is that they function as a black box. Candidates are only told whether they have progressed to the next stage, without any details on why that decision was made. The lack of feedback or constructive commentary not only frustrates candidates but is also detrimental to businesses. We conducted extensive research on the topic of feedback and […]
The first mentions of developer kits included with Intel DG1 discrete graphics cards appeared in the customs database of the EEC at the end of October last year. By January, it became clear that the corresponding graphics cards would be distributed exclusively among developers in the near future. The EEC database now notes new accessories included with the DG1. In early February, new entries appeared in the relevant database […]
Recently, I realized that I had underestimated the importance of what people think about in the shower in the mornings. I always knew that great ideas often come to mind at this time. Now I will say more: you are unlikely to achieve anything truly remarkable if you don't think about it in the shower. Probably everyone who has worked on complex […]
I recently faced the problem of choosing an apartment and, of course, the first thing I wanted to do was check what’s happening in the real estate market. As usual, half of the experts on youtube.com say that real estate prices will rise, while the other half insists that prices will fall.
