Sodium and lithium gas was detected in a plume thought to span tens of kilometres, created when part of a SpaceX rocket crashed into the lunar surface
A telescope in Chile has captured evidence of the impact caused by part of a SpaceX rocket slamming into the moon while travelling at 8,690km/h (5,400mph).
The European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope observed “spectral lines” – a colourful illustration of the sodium and lithium gas – in the plume of lunar dust stirred up by the impact.

Leading Democrats quickly papered over whatever qualms they had about progressive candidate Abdul El-Sayed after his win in the Michigan Senate primary was confirmed on Wednesday, instead welcoming the former public health official as their champion against the Republican nominee, Mike Rogers.
The state is now key to Democrats’s hopes of retaking control of the chamber in November’s midterm elections. Winning in Michigan would put them on the path to snarling Donald Trump’s legislative agenda and blocking his judicial nominees for the final two years of his presidency, while defeat could undermine their prospects of gaining a majority in the chamber for years to come. Rogers lost a Senate race in Michigan two years ago by a slim margin to Democrat Elissa Slotkin.

Допустим, у вашего товара в основной базе уже есть ID 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000. Он попадает в события, логи и ответы API. Но при загрузке того же товара в Manticore приложению приходится выдавать ему ещё один, числовой ID.
До Manticore Search 28.5.0 ID документа был беззнаковым 64-битным числом. UUID можно было сохранить в отдельном строковом атрибуте, однако идентификатором документа он от этого не становился. Для UPDATE, REPLACE и DELETE всё равно требовался числовой id.
В результате приходилось хранить соответствие между UUID из основной БД и числовым ID в таблице Manticore. Теперь без него можно обойтись: RT-таблица Manticore умеет использовать UUID как ID документа.

The dramatic footage last Thursday of thousands of migrants entering Spain’s north African enclave of Ceuta generated an online frenzy among the far right. And the alarmist rhetoric was also evident in the European mainstream, as EU leaders wasted little time attributing the chaotic scenes to Spain’s liberal immigration policies.
In a letter organised by Italy and Denmark, and signed by 22 EU heads of government, they appeared to blame the crisis on Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez’s recent programme to regularise undocumented migrants, which received more than a million applications. They argued that Europe must “[address] all policies that can serve as pull factors”.

Since eyes are turned to Clacton-on-Sea and a certain candidate facing questions about a £5m “gift” and a byelection battle with a man dressed as a bin, let’s take a look across the town at a young woman in a pink house and be reminded of some values – generosity, decency – that appear absent from much of public life.
Trewley Precious Temple, who became well known on TikTok, where she has 1m followers, is the star of the Channel 4 show Secret Lives of Gypsy Wives and is fast becoming a phenomenon. The show features her mum, Tina, her sisters Honey, Pearl and Ruby-Anne and her brother Jamie; they’re like the Kardashians, says Temple in every episode’s intro, if the humourless US reality TV family were “fat and broke and on benefits”. What comes across most strongly is the family’s love and big-heartedness, not just for each other, but for their wider community, too.

‘I consider an exclusive a failure,” Amy Goodman says. It is not a typical observation for a journalist to make, but it is the approach at the heart of a documentary about her career, Steal This Story, Please! If an article, item, narrative or interview is significant enough “it should be shared around the world,” she insists.
This time, however, her goal is not to share a particular news story, but rather an entire professional philosophy. To do so, Goodman had to let “two Oscar-nominated stalkers into my life” in an effort to “spread the word about this critical form of independent journalism” that she has practised over four decades.

With more than 7m pairs reportedly sold in 2025, Meta’s Ray-Ban smartglasses are fast becoming one of the world’s most popular gadgets.
While supporters say they are transforming photography and accessibility, critics have raised concerns about nonconsensual filming, privacy and data collection.

News Corp has reported a slight slide in digital subscriptions at its Australian mastheads, erasing recent gains, among otherwise robust financials at the Rupert Murdoch-backed global conglomerate.

Двухфакторная аутентификация давно стала стандартом защиты корпоративных систем. Но для работы с персональными данными и другими критичными операциями проверки только при входе в систему может быть недостаточно. В этой статье разберем, чем Step-Up Authentication отличается от классической 2FA, в каких сценариях она применяется и как мы реализовали этот механизм в одном из наших проектов

Мы делаем RCQ, мессенджер со сквозным шифрованием и открытым кодом (Android, iOS, протокол). В нашем основном регионе приложение блокируют, поэтому обход встроен внутрь клиента: sing-box в самом приложении, пул релеев, подписанный конфиг с их списком, запасной путь через CDN.
Всё это писалось месяцами и ни разу не измерялось. Мы знали, что механизмы есть, а срабатывают ли они хоть когда-нибудь и в каком проценте случаев, никто из нас сказать не мог, потому что спрашивать было не у чего.
В начале августа ушло двое суток на приборы. Ни одной новой функции, только измерение уже написанного. Нашлось восемь мест одной и той же формы: механизм построен, задеплоен, в него верят, а в продакшене он либо не выполнялся ни разу, либо выполнялся не так, как все были уверены.
Дальше про приборы. Обход блокировок тут просто предметная область, приёмы работают на любом коде, который включается редко и по чужому расписанию: ретраи, фолбэки, аварийные переключения, резервные каналы доставки.
