Windows 10X will be able to run Win32 applications with certain limitations

The Windows 10X operating system, when released, will support both modern universal and web applications, as well as traditional Win32 applications. Microsoft claims they will run in a container, which will protect the system from viruses and crashes. It is noted that almost all traditional programs, including system utilities, Photoshop, and even […] will work inside the Win32 container.

Microsoft is still trying to unify the experience of its operating system across different form factors and devices. Windows 10X is the company's latest attempt to achieve this.

Free hosting for Telegram bots on Google Cloud Platform

Why GCP? When writing Telegram bots, I faced the question of how to quickly and inexpensively ensure that the bot operates continuously. Options with Heroku and Pythonanywhere have too small limits if you have more than one bot. Therefore, I decided to use GCP. The platform provides $300 free for a year + huge discounts when using these funds (up to 94%). How to host […]

Telegram + 1C + Webhooks + Apache + Self-signed certificate

A lot has been written about integrating Telegram and 1C. However, I have not seen a complete guide on installing and configuring webhooks. I will try to write it. For all this, we will need (or it would be more accurate to say that I used): Apache 2.2.24 OpenSSL (included in the Apache installation) 1C (with web server modules) Your own domain A created bot in Telegram (I won't describe […]

I invite you to review the transcript of Alexander Sigachev's report on Service Discovery in distributed systems using Consul as an example. Service Discovery is designed to allow for the minimal investment of resources when connecting a new application to our existing environment. By using Service Discovery, we can maximize the separation of either a Docker container or a virtual service from the environment in which it operates. […]

When Death Becomes Art: Epitaphs of Famous People with Deep Meaning in English

In the Middle Ages, dark humor was cherished. This is why the art of epitaphs became so popular. Philosophical or amusing sayings for one’s gravestone were composed during one’s lifetime, and people often hired professional epitaphists. The tradition of writing epitaphs continues to this day. However, while they are written relatively rarely in our country, in English-speaking countries, writing something tearful or […]

Git implementation on Shell prepared

Drew DeVault, the author of the Sway user environment and the Aerc mail client, humorously attempted to create an implementation of Git written in POSIX Shell. The idea arose after a debate about the complexity of Git's internal structure, after which Drew decided to demonstrate his points by writing a working version of Git in pure Shell within a day. During the process, Drew realized that he might have been a bit overzealous […]
