Compiler development is a very challenging task. However, with the advancement of projects like LLVM, solving this problem has become significantly easier, allowing even a solo programmer to create a new language close in performance to C. Working with LLVM is complicated by the fact that this system is presented with a vast amount of code, accompanied by scant documentation. In an attempt to address this shortcoming, the author of the material […]

By approving the use of private microwave networks in "solution 890 or higher," the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) perhaps hoped to push all these private networks into their quiet corner of the market and forget about them. However, it quickly became clear that this was impossible. New faces and organizations emerged, insisting on changes to the existing regulatory platform. They proposed many new […]
Introduction Digital transformation is encroaching into more and more areas of life and business each year. If a business wants to remain competitive, mere informational websites are no longer enough; mobile and web applications are needed that not only provide users with information but also enable them to perform various functions: acquiring or ordering goods and services, providing tools. For instance, modern banks can no longer simply […]
Microsoft is actively preparing the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser for release. Canary builds are updated daily and receive numerous improvements. In one of the latest updates, Canary 76.0.155.0, the long-awaited "reading mode" has finally appeared. Previously, this mode could be activated forcibly in Microsoft Edge builds on the Canary and Dev channels using the corresponding flags. […]
Design Mail, mail… "Currently, any novice user can set up their free email inbox; they just need to register on one of the internet portals," claims Wikipedia. So, launching your own mail server for this purpose seems a bit odd. Nevertheless, I do not regret the month spent on this, from the day of the OS installation to the day […]
Thanks to the recent update of the GeForce 10 and 16 series graphics card drivers, they can now perform ray tracing in games that support DXR. Based on our tests, on GeForce GTX 1660 and GTX 1660 Ti (as well as any other NVIDIA models except GeForce RTX and older accelerators on Pascal chips), this feature primarily works in demonstration mode, […]
Another I/O is in the books! We worked in sandboxes, watched stunning product demonstrations, and listened to music created by artificial intelligence. Just for you, we have compiled a list of 100 announcements we made at I/O: Tech New phone! Our smartphones – Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL will be available later this week, featuring all the main perks from […]
Hello again! I have found another open database with medical data for you. I’d like to remind you that recently I published three articles on this topic: the leak of personal data of patients and doctors from the online medical service DOC+, the vulnerability of the 'Doctor Nearby' service, and the data leak from ambulance stations. This time, an open server has become available […]
Recently, I conducted a comparative test of LTE routers, and it was not surprising to find that the performance and sensitivity of their radio modules vary significantly. When I connected an antenna to the routers, the speed increased exponentially. This inspired me to conduct a comparative test of antennas that can not only provide connectivity in a private home but also ensure it's at least on par with […]
Welcome to lesson 11! If you remember, in lesson 7 we mentioned that Check Point has three types of Security Policy. These are: Access Control; Threat Prevention; Desktop Security. We have already covered most of the blades from the Access Control policy, whose main task is to control traffic or content. The Firewall, Application Control, URL Filtering, and Content […]

At the same time, some key speakers made very interesting and even ambiguous statements on related topics. Among the standout speakers was […]
