A new service for Linux kernel developers has been introduced - people.kernel.org, which is designed to fill the niche left by the closure of the Google+ service. Many kernel developers, including Linus Torvalds, blogged on Google+ and after its closure felt the need for a platform that allowed them to publish notes from time to time, in a format other than the LKML mailing list. The people.kernel.org service is built […]

Consequences of untimely removal of wisdom teeth

Hello again! Today I would like to write a mini post and answer the question - “Why remove wisdom teeth if they don’t bother you?”, and comment on the statement - “My relatives and friends, dad/mom/grandfather/granny/neighbor/cat had a tooth removed and that’s it went wrong.

Superbank and supercurrency

Project for a global/national power bank and a single universal cosmopolitan currency. In essence, such a project will bring humanity into a new, previously inaccessible, orbit of openness, universality and transparency of any material legal interactions. And Russia, as the country with the largest land area and energy sector, can be the first to initiate such a process. Think with me about the modern world, in which, dollars, shekels, […]

Periodically changing passwords is an outdated practice, it's time to abandon it

In many IT systems, there is a mandatory rule for periodically changing passwords. This is perhaps the most hated and most useless requirement of security systems. Some users simply change the number at the end as a life hack. This practice caused a lot of inconvenience. However, people had to endure, because it is for the sake of safety. Now this advice is completely irrelevant. In May 2019, even Microsoft […]
