UKHSA rules out British produce as source of infections and says evidence points to consumption of imported eggs

One person has died and more than 200 others have fallen ill during a UK-wide outbreak of salmonella that health officials have linked to the consumption of imported eggs.

The 207 people affected range in age from under one year to 90 years old, according to the UK Health Security Agency, which is leading an investigation into the outbreak.

Две зрелости – внедрения ИИ и его защиты – почти никогда не совпадают, и именно зазор между ними даёт большинство инцидентов и претензий регулятора.

В статье приведём обе оси к единой шкале CMMI, покажем, как организации проходят узнаваемые состояния (от отрицания до бесконтрольных агентов), и свяжем всё это с Приказом ФСТЭК № 117 и российскими стандартами.

ГКУ «Инфогород», которое работает с цифровыми проектами ДИТ Москвы, ищет специалиста в команду контакт-центра. Позиция интересная: здесь не нужно механически наполнять базу знаний, это методологическая функция, которая подразумевает обучение и координацию, а также работу с процессами и создание контента для людей и ИИ. Звучит хорошо, но есть подводные камни.

The Vampire Lestat has seduced fans around the world with his eye-popping antics. But this obsession with hot vamps goes way beyond forbidden love, bare chests and a taste for LSD-laced blood

If you want TV audiences to forgive a fictional man for absolutely anything, just sharpen his fangs and stick him in velvet. Case in point? The horny musical drama The Vampire Lestat, which became a cult hit in the US earlier this year. The show has now arrived in the UK and Sam Reid’s searing performance as Lestat has fans on their knees.

The first two seasons, which went by the title Interview With the Vampire, were about the “interview” in which Louis (Jacob Anderson) tells a journalist about his toxic relationship with Lestat. Now, the focus has shifted to Lestat – hence the new title and new narrator – as the golden-locked prince of darkness swaps centuries of secrecy for glam-rock stardom.

Scientists surprised to find all but two of 12 grizzlies were dead within a year of ‘feelgood’ release, unable to sustain their high-calorie diet and inclined to approach humans

The orphaned grizzly bear cubs were bulked up with a generous diet of roadkill, watermelon, dog food and snacks donated by the public. Their contact with carers was limited to two people. Then, after up to a year in rehabilitation, they returned home to the wilds of British Columbia.

“It’s a feelgood thing – people feel good when the cage opens,” says Dr Lana M Ciarniello, a bear specialist who tracked the Canadian yearlings in a recent study. There is a perception that bears will thrive in their natural habitat, she says. “The reality is they’re not followed up on.”

Funding boost worth $100,000 has recently materialized in form of new marmot-themed cryptocurrency

Scientists who turned to OnlyFans to help save long-running research into marmots have raised more than $100,000 after harnessing the support of another, very modern, funding avenue – cryptocurrency.

The 60-year project of continuous study of marmots – stout, ground-dwelling rodents that are the largest members of the squirrel family – across the US west was facing termination following science funding cuts imposed by Donald Trump’s administration.

Artist also known as Ye, who has attracted controversy in recent years over antisemitic outbursts, to perform two shows in October

Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, will perform two shows in St Petersburg this October, becoming the most well-known western star to play in Russia since its invasion of Ukraine four years ago.

The artist has attracted controversy in recent years, with his antisemitic outbursts and expressions of sympathy towards nazism increasingly overshadowing his music and making some countries and venues uneasy about hosting his tour.

Раньше инженера растили на задачах, которые сейчас называют «рутиной»: написать автотесты, собрать первичную аналитику, разметить датасет или составить документацию. Эта черновая работа была естественным тренировочным полем. Пробираясь через нее, новичок совершал контролируемые ошибки, проходил код-ревью и формировал профессиональное суждение (engineering judgment) — интуитивное понимание того, как система ведет себя в реальности. 

В классической инженерии этот этап называют «накоплением насмотренности»: нельзя спроектировать надежный мост, не изучив сотни типовых узлов и чужих ошибок. Похожий принцип десятилетиями поддерживал живучесть ядра Linux: Линус Торвальдс и команда топ-мейнтенеров годами заставляли новичков вручную переписывать патчи, чтобы те ментально «проросли» в архитектуру подсистем и переняли культуру инженерных решений.

Генериративный ИИ автоматизировал рутинные задачи — написание тестов, разметку данных, — которые раньше служили тренировочным полем для развития инженерного суждения. По мнению исследователей Microsoft, этот сдвиг к 2026 году остановил традиционный конвейер передачи опыта, создавая риск «кадрового дефолта» в IT. В исследовании Microsoft говорится, что AI Drag (эффект торможения) становится главным вызовом, требующим перестройки обучения специалистов.

Разберем, почему экономия на начинающих специалистах ведет к кадровому дефолту отрасли и как перестроить обучение, когда рутина больше не учит.

Network alleges FCC is trying to send ‘chilling message’ in retaliation for content the administration disapproves of

ABC has sued the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), arguing that it is being retaliated against for content-based reasons in a move it warns threatens the independence of the press.

The network filed the lawsuit on Tuesday after being forced to apply early to renew its license to broadcast on the eight local television stations it owns. It is waiting to hear whether the Brendan Carr-led FCC approves its renewal requests, or, more likely, holds a hearing on their merits.

Staff members said Free Speech Union would “need to explain” how it spent money donated by its supporters

Staff at a campaign group that claims to defend free speech in Britain said it would “need to explain” how it spent roughly £60,000 that was crowdfunded for a legal case that was ultimately fought by a pro bono lawyer.

The Free Speech Union (FSU), an activist group founded by Conservative life peer Toby Young, last year took up the case of Julian Foulkes, a 71-year-old retired police officer who had been arrested 18 months earlier after writing a social media post about antisemitism

Привет, Хабр! Испытания интересующих многих соотечественников аккумуляторных батарей Camel продолжаются. Мы сравниваем их параметры со старыми знакомыми АКОМ, прекрасно показывающими себя в течение многих лет.

Все аккумуляторы АКОМ снабжены пробками для доступа к электролиту, куда при необходимости всегда можно долить дистиллированную воду. Camel не предоставляет такой возможности, поэтому тема сегодняшнего эксперимента представляет особую актуальность.

As adept at comedy and musicals as she was drama, Law also acted alongside daughters Sophie and Emma Thompson in a career spanning eight decades

Phyllida Law, whose prolific acting career encompassed a wide range of stage, TV and film roles – a number of which were alongside her daughters, Emma and Sophie Thompson – has died aged 94. Her personal manager, Jacky Leggo, said in a statement that she “died supremely peacefully at home, surrounded by all her family”.

Born in Glasgow in 1932, Law was accepted at the prestigious Bristol Old Vic Theatre school – initially intending to be a stage designer but then switching to acting. She appeared in a number of Bristol Old Vic productions in the 1950s, and it was there she met Eric Thompson, a fellow actor, whom she married in 1957.

Я играю в STALCRAFT, ныне STALZONE. Там есть радио Grind FM — играет фоном, создаёт атмосферу. Проблема в том, что это радио находится в безопасной зоне и играет даже не на всю эту зону. И мне захотелось сделать так, чтобы во время вылазки можно было включить это радио и мочить мутантов.

Немного поизучав, как это можно сделать без опыта в этом деле, я понял, что нужен просто сервер в облаке и программа с веб‑интерфейсом.
