Big decisions pay off as Coco Gauff gears up for US Open with Cincinnati title
Published: 2026-08-24 04:33:03 | Created: 2026-08-24 06:49:55
  • American beats compatriot Jessica Pegula 6-2, 6-4

  • Gauff claims first title of season, her second in Cincinnati

One year ago, Coco Gauff departed the Cincinnati Open with her career at a crossroads. On serve, she had capitulated, offering up countless double faults in most matches, and she had lost confidence in her progress and game. She believed she had to make drastic changes to her team before it was too late.

It has taken an enormous amount of resilience, patience and toil, but this week Gauff began to feel the consequences of those efforts as she closed out one of the ­smoothest tournaments of her career with her best performance of the season, thoroughly outplaying the third seed ­Jessica Pegula to win 6-2, 6-4 and clinch the Cincinnati Open title for the second time.

Iran’s rial falls to record low as Scott Bessent warns of ‘economic D-day’ – business live

US Treasury secretary to announce sanctions against Tehran at a press conference at 1pm EDT (6pm London time)

Some good news for the UK (and new PM Andy Burnham and his team):

Productivity in the UK – a vital measure of economic health – is growing more strongly than official figures suggest, according to analysis from the Resolution Foundation.

Businesses are cautious about adding headcount while costs, including higher employer national insurance contributions and energy bills, affect profits.

At the same time, AI can increasingly perform some of the routine work that traditionally gave graduates their first step onto the career ladder. This does not mean there will be no jobs for young people, but it does mean a degree alone is becoming less of a guarantee of employment.

Приключение «Виагры» в КНР: почему Pfizer не смогла получить права на популярное китайское название препарата

В 2009 году американский фармацевтический гигант Pfizer не смог отсудить у китайской компании Pharmaceutical Viamen (также известная как Welman/Viaman) права на популярное в КНР название препарата «Виагра». Разбирательство продолжалось несколько лет, и поражение Pfizer означало, что корпорация из США окончательно потеряла возможность получить от продаж препарата в Китае значимую прибыль. Рассказываем, какие ошибки допустила Pfizer при регистрации товарных знаков в КНР и как боролась за свои права на «Виагру» в стране.

«Золотой век ИИ в СССР», или Как ученые в 1950–1960-е годы заложили основы искусственного интеллекта

Published: 2026-08-24 06:34:45 | Created: 2026-08-24 06:35:56

Ключевые идеи, благодаря которым сегодня мы с помощью ИИ рисуем картинки, распознаем образы, пишем тексты и обеспечиваем безопасность на предприятиях, были заложены до появления терминов «искусственный интеллект», «нейросеть» и домашних компьютеров.

Описанная Норбертом Винером кибернетика в 1950‑е годы сперва была воспринята в СССР как лженаука, целью которой якобы была дегуманизация человека и замена трудящихся на машины. Но вскоре советские математики исправили это досадное недоразумение и нашли способ применять теорию управления и передачи информации на благо общества. «Обеление» молодой науки привело к всплеску междисциплинарных исследований: совместно работали математики, физики, врачи‑психиатры, биологи.

В статье рассмотрим на примере ряда выдающихся ученых и изобретателей создание фундамента, на котором стоят машинное обучение, вычислительная лингвистика и управление сложными системами. А биографии покажут, что из этих людей можно было бы делать гвозди — и не было бы их прочнее.

On Different Grounds review – Cupid’s-conspiracy romcom brings Nollywood and Bollywood together
Published: 2026-08-24 06:00:54 | Created: 2026-08-24 06:19:55

Mildred Okwo’s earnest film about the conflicting romantic wishes in a Nigerian family struggles to connect with its promising premise

It’s a stretch for this Nigerian romcom to bill itself “the first Nollywood-Bollywood collaboration” based on the fact that it features, in Nimesh Diliprai Desai and Vineet Raina, two fringe Indian players on a sprawling wedding-invite list. But the two industries do indeed have much common ground, such as big-hearted family values and a penchant for grand gestural emotions that, in the case of Mildred Okwo’s somewhat heavy-footed film, trample on some promising concepts and narrative plausibility.

Silk-tressed bachelorette Aurora (Abena Akuaba) is being browbeaten by her businessman dad Eyimofe (Bob-Manuel Udokwu) to marry snoozefest suitor Tobore (Ifeanyi Kalu). She is hardly enthused when he parrots his criteria for embarking on “a collaboration with an individual or brand”: “value check, common interest, due diligence and critical analysis.” (Tobore ticks the boxes.) But she agrees to set a date on one condition: that Eyimofe must invite her mother, Isioma (Jennifer Eliogu) – booted out by Eyimofe many years back for wanting to pursue her career – to the big day.

The hill I will die on: A music festival isn’t a music festival without children | Iman Amrani
Published: 2026-08-24 06:00:54 | Created: 2026-08-24 06:19:55

Ignore the party poopers who say toddlers spoil the fun. I’ve braved the raves with my twins – and I’ve seen how families add to the magic of events

The woman I used to be died the day I gave birth to twins. That life – full of spontaneous travel, impulsive decisions and a decorated social calendar – evaporated, giving way to a blank canvas of motherhood and two glorious little human beings. While I was inside that summer, many of my friends continued on their child-free paths. They posted pictures of themselves enjoying festivals, sleeping in tents with pop-up communities that I used to be a part of.

So when the twins turned one last summer and we’d found our rhythm, I decided to take on the challenge of sharing the magic of live music with them. It went better than I expected. Before their second birthday, we had danced at day festivals such as Situation Dance, put on by Femi Koleoso from Ezra Collective, camped out overnight in the Brecon Beacons for Green Man and been to the child-focused TOTFest.

‘Everything you’d want from Italy, all in one place’: Brescia, Lombardy’s hidden gem

The city’s rich history and culture have so far flown under the radar, but its fiercely proud inhabitants are determined to change that

We have hardly begun walking before I spot the side alley, curving away from the main road in a patchwork of sunlit yellow walls, shuttered windows and shadowy archways. “What’s up there?” Elena, my guide to the city, pulls a wry smile. “That is Carmine. As a kid, I was warned not to go there.”

I turn up the alley. There’s a lot of graffiti. Next to an anarchy symbol, someone has sprayed “morte al decoro” – death to decorum. I’m intrigued. We go further, finding a labyrinth of colourful streets filled with bars and restaurants, a few just opening up for the day.

The Disappearers by Marlon James review – a scorching exposé of homophobia in Jamaica
Published: 2026-08-24 06:00:54 | Created: 2026-08-24 06:19:55

This Booker-listed epic set in Aids-era Kingston is a triumph – bitter, bawdy and ravishingly queer

“A sense of sweep,” replied Marlon James, when asked what moves him most in literature. “Sweep isn’t just about external journeys, but internal as well. It can be over years and decades, or across land and sea.” If that explanation is still hazy, pick up his mighty new novel, which is longlisted for this year’s Booker prize and is tirelessly – sometimes exhaustingly – grand and peripatetic. Mounting a grisly exposé of Jamaican homophobia, this polyphonic 640-page doorstopper is an emotionally bruising narrative that roves “uptown, downtown, ghetto and gully” through Aids-era Kingston with sidetrack excursions to 1950s England and a closing leap to 2000s United States.

The novel’s defining event is a gruesome mob attack on eight queer men who have clandestinely come together to work on bringing John Herbert’s 1967 gay prison play, Fortune and Men’s Eyes, to the stage. The goal, in the words of director Havelock Titus, is to shatter “the whole fragile myth of Jamaican male sexuality”. “Because prison,” he explains, “is the ultimate male institution and yet masculine sexualities that could never happen outside in the normal world flourish in there all the time.”

Robert Solomon loves the early mornings, picking out the apples, tending to the broccoli and fussing up the dandelion greens. At 71, he says it’s the best job he’s had

When Robert Solomon’s working hours were cut during the pandemic – he did building management and tech support for a nonprofit organisation – he got an extra job at a food cooperative, helping to stock the store. It was, he says, the most ordinary job, but that’s what made it special.

That job ended with the pandemic, but in 2022 he left the nonprofit and hunted for grocery positions. Now, at 71, he is assistant buyer in produce (ie fruit and vegetables) at an independent market in New York. “I love the opportunity to do physical, creative work with my body, hands and mind,” he says. “I’m working harder than I have since my 30s, and I love it.”

Дискуссии об использовании искусственного интеллекта злоумышленниками часто ограничиваются темами автоматизации фишинга или написанием базового кода. Однако реальный технологический сдвиг заключается в том, что нейросети превращаются из внешней утилиты во внутренний архитектурный компонент вредоносного ПО. Встраивание ИИ-моделей непосредственно в логику бинарников на разных этапах Kill Chain дает вредоносному софту автономность, которая трансформирует векторы атак и значительно меняет правила игры.

Вместо жестких, статичных алгоритмов, которые современные средства защиты научились эффективно детектировать, вредоносный софт начинает использовать динамические движки принятия решений. Это позволяет угрозам адаптироваться к окружению прямо на целевом узле: на ходу менять тактику закрепления в системе, маскировать каналы управления и самостоятельно определять ценность данных для кражи.

Чтобы детально разобраться в масштабах и изменениях этой эволюции, практику интеграции ИИ в малвари нагляднее всего рассматривать через этапы классического киллчейна. Ниже разберем, как именно нейросети пересобирают логику атаки на каждой стадии жизненного цикла угрозы и почему традиционные подходы к безопасности здесь начинают работать уже не так хорошо, как раньше.

У каждого, кто работает с Kubernetes, рано или поздно возникает потребность «посмотреть на кластер глазами»: кто с кем связан, почему под в CrashLoopBackOff, что изменилось за ночь, какие сертификаты истекают. Вариантов обычно два — Kubernetes Dashboard (слишком бедный) или Lens / Headlamp (десктопное приложение или тяжёлый стек с зависимостями). А kubectl-специалисты откапывают причины инцидентов в простынях YAML, где сигнал тонет в managedFields и status.conditions.

Critics include Senator Chris van Hollen, ex-aide to Obama Tommy Vietor and ex-Republican congressman Adam Kinzinger

Democrats and other Donald Trump critics reacted incredulously to a New York Times report on Sunday that House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries met with Jared Kushner, the president’s influential son-in-law, to discuss possible areas of collaboration.

The reported meeting comes months ahead of the November midterm elections in which Democrats are favored to retake the US House, a development that would make Jeffries speaker. If they are in the majority, Democrats are expected to use their oversight power to aggressively investigate the Trump administration, including self-enrichment by the president and his family.

Shadow of Earth likely to make moon glow red before dawn on 28 August

The early hours of Friday 28 August will reward very early risers in the UK, Europe and Africa with a fine lunar eclipse. Though not quite a total eclipse, it will transform the moon into a dramatic sight as dawn approaches.

The partial eclipse begins at 3.33am BST, when the moon’s familiar full disc begins to disappear behind the shadow of the Earth. By the time the eclipse reaches its greatest extent, shortly after 5.10am, only a thin sliver of the moon will remain in direct sunlight. The rest is likely to glow a muted coppery red as sunlight bent into the Earth’s shadow and filtered through its atmosphere reaches the lunar surface.
