APC Smart UPS and how to prepare them

Posted on

Among the numerous UPS options, the most commonly used in entry-level server environments are Smart UPS from APC (now Schneider Electric). Their excellent reliability and low prices in the secondary market mean that system administrators, without much thought, plug these UPS devices into racks and attempt to extract maximum profit from equipment that’s 10-15 years old simply by replacing the batteries. Unfortunately, not always […]

BioWare: Anthem will be completely reworked

Posted on

At the end of last year, there were rumors that BioWare was working on a complete overhaul of the unsuccessful multiplayer role-playing action game Anthem. Today, this has been officially confirmed.

By banning facial recognition, we miss the point.

Posted on

The essence of modern surveillance is to distinguish between people, so they can be treated differently. Facial recognition technologies are just a small part of a total surveillance system. The author of the essay is Bruce Schneier, an American cryptographer, author, and information security specialist. He is a member of the board of the International Association for Cryptologic Research and an advisory board member of the Electronic Privacy Information Center. The essay was published on January 20, 2020, on the blog […]

The scent reveals

Posted on

I was inspired to write this article by a translation that discussed how, by focusing on facial recognition systems, we miss the whole idea of mass data collection: a person can be identified using completely different data. Even people themselves use various methods for this: for example, the brain of a nearsighted person relies on gait recognition to identify people at a distance rather than trying to recognize their faces. […]

How much does it cost to be perfect?

Posted on

Most people strive to be perfect. No, not to be, but to seem. There is beauty all around, rather than the world itself. Especially now, with social media. You should be good-looking, perform excellently at work, get along with people, constantly evolve, read smart books, vacation at the seaside, meet deadlines, show potential, and watch the right movies (to get high ratings […]

Depending on the client's technical requirements, we often have to settle on one or another hardware and software base.

How an Energy Specialist Studied Neural Networks and a Review of the Free Course "Udacity: Intro to TensorFlow for Deep Learning"

Posted on

Throughout my conscious life, I have been an energy engineer (no, this is not about a drink with questionable properties). I have never been particularly interested in the world of information technology, and I could hardly multiply matrices on a piece of paper. I never needed to, but to give you a little insight into the specifics of my work, I can share a wonderful […]
