For many years in the USA, it has been common practice to require candidates for various positions to provide not only a resume but also a cover letter. In recent years, the importance of this aspect has started to decline — as early as 2016, only about 30% of employers requested cover letters. This is easy to explain — HR specialists conducting initial screenings often have too much […]
New technological processes will first be implemented in the production of server products. The discrete graphics processor from 2021 will be unique in many ways: the use of EUV lithography, spatial layout with multiple chips, and Intel's first experience in releasing a serial product using a 7 nm technology. Intel remains hopeful of mastering the 5 nm technology. Following the successful implementation of 7 nm technology, the revenues for investors and the company itself should rise. In […]
Below is a brief overview of how to move to France for work in IT: what kind of visa to expect, what salary is required for this visa, and how to adapt your resume to local traditions. The current political situation. Not out of butthurt, but purely for factual purposes. (c) The situation now is that all non-EU immigrants, regardless of their level […]

Researchers from the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA) and Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) have developed an advanced attack method on the SHA-1 algorithm, significantly simplifying the creation of two different documents with the same SHA-1 hashes. The essence of the method is to reduce the operation of full collision search in SHA-1 to a collision attack with a given prefix, where a collision occurs with […]
Google has finally lifted the veil on the Fuchsia OS project—a mysterious operating system that has been around for about three years but has yet to be made publicly available. It first came to light in August 2016 without any official announcement. Initial data appeared on GitHub, and around that time, theories emerged that it could be a universal OS that would replace […]
As the world's number one browser, Chrome is constantly evolving, with Google always seeking ways to enhance the user experience. The security and performance levels of the application are also improving across all platforms. Recently, the company started working on a new feature that will prevent websites from blocking the 'Back' button. As is well known, there are pages that make it difficult to return in the browser […]
At the recent Google I/O developer conference, Google announced that this year's Chromebooks will support the Linux operating system. This option existed before, but now the process is much simpler and available 'out of the box'. Last year, Google started providing the capability to run Linux on some laptops with […]
Security researcher Willem de Groot reported that in a recent infrastructure breach, attackers were able to inject malicious code into the web analytics system Picreel and the open platform for generating interactive web forms Alpaca Forms. The JavaScript code substitution led to the compromise of 4,684 websites using these systems on their pages (1,249 — Picreel and 3,435 — Alpaca Forms). The injected […]
The release of the free distribution of OpenIndiana 2019.04 is now available, which has replaced the binary distribution of OpenSolaris, whose development was discontinued by Oracle. OpenIndiana provides users with a working environment built on a fresh snapshot of the Illumos project codebase. The development of OpenSolaris technologies continues through the Illumos project, which enhances the kernel, network stack, file systems, drivers, as well as the basic set of user system utilities […]
The current 14nm manufacturing process will remain in operation at least until 2021. In Intel's presentations about the transition to new technologies, any processors and products are mentioned, but not desktop ones. Mass production of Intel products based on 7nm technology will not begin before 2022. All engineering resources will be shifted from the 14nm process to the 7nm process, and the 10nm process will […]
