However, when working on multiple projects simultaneously, one can still encounter difficulties using shared source files (.cs), libraries (.dll), and other assets (images, sounds, models, prefabs). In this article, we will share our experience with a native solution to such problems for Unity. Methods […]
Many people still believe in the misconception that they act predominantly rationally and sensibly. However, science and practical psychology have long concluded that human behavior is irrational and unreasonable in most life situations. This is neither good nor bad; it simply is. I offer you a selection of authors and books that provide compelling arguments […]

From the Translator: We have published an article by Maria Perna that discusses the typical JavaScript tasks most often offered to developer candidates during interviews. This article will be particularly useful for beginner programmers. Interviews at tech companies have long been the stuff of legend.

The goal of this project was: To study the DHCP protocol while working in an IPv4 network To learn Python (a bit more than from scratch 😉 ) replacing the DB2DHCP server (my fork), the original here, which has become increasingly difficult to compile under the new OS. Moreover, I dislike that the binary, which cannot be 'swapped out right now', is expected to provide a functioning DHCP server with the option […]

On the first day of spring (or the fifth month of winter, depending on your perspective), the submission period for KnowledgeConf — a conference on knowledge management in IT companies — came to an end. I must admit, the results of the Call for Papers exceeded all expectations. Yes, we knew the topic was relevant; we saw this at other conferences and meetups, but that it would uncover so many new facets and angles — […]
Any operation with big data requires substantial computing power. Regular data transfer from a database to Hadoop can take weeks or cost as much as an aircraft wing. Don't want to wait and spend? Balance the load across different platforms. One way to do this is through pushdown optimization. I asked leading trainer in Russia on development and administration of Informatica products, Alexey Ananyev, to share about […]
