• Four-time victor holds huge lead after Alpe d’Huez

• Final stage to be shortened due to wildfires elsewhere

Tadej Pogacar’s likely victory parade on the streets of Paris will come sooner on Sunday after the final stage of the Tour de France was shortened due to wildfires elsewhere in France. The stage will now be only 89km long and will start on the Champs-Élysées, where two laps of the avenue will be followed by the now traditional circuits of the Butte de Montmartre.

In a joint statement with the prefecture police, the Tour organiser, ASO, said: “The ministry of the interior has decided to redeploy a portion of the internal security forces initially mobilised for the final stage of the Tour de France, in order to reinforce the response efforts in the areas affected by the wildfires.”

Exclusive: Blunder at Rosebank, UK’s biggest undeveloped oilfield, comes as government considers granting licence

Production at Britain’s biggest undeveloped oil and gasfield could be delayed for months after equipment from a rig was accidentally dropped in the North Sea, the Guardian can reveal.

Andy Burnham’s new government is under pressure from the fossil fuel industry to allow oil to be retrieved from the Rosebank site despite opposition from climate campaigners and some Labour MPs.

Дядя Хашимото сказал разобраться, я попытался. Речь про его эссе «Everyone Should Know SIMD»: SIMD должен знать каждый разработчик; примеры там на Zig, но суть от языка не зависит. Мой язык - Go, и в февральском обзоре Go 1.26 я написал про новый SIMD-пакет грустную строчку: «поддержка ARM64 планируется в будущих версиях».

Будущее пришло быстрее, чем я ждал: в go1.27rc2 пакет simd стал портируемым, и один Go-код разворачивается в Neon на Apple Silicon и в AVX2 на Intel. У меня под рукой обе машины: Mac на M3 Pro, где собиралась первая версия этих бенчей, и Linux-десктоп на i9-14900KF. Впереди проверка обещания портируемости на живом железе: один исходник, два дизассемблера, две пачки замеров. Ассемблер писать не будем, весь код запускается копипастой; целиком он лежит в репозитории dsbasko/sandbox-simd.

Initiatives including cutting permits just to serve ice-cream amount to a sweeping program of deregulation

Red Scare? The democratic socialist mayor of New York City spent this week talking about red tape.

On Tuesday, Zohran Mamdani – the politician at the center of a revived rightwing panic about socialists and purported communists winning elections across America - posted a video on X of himself putting a sheet of paper with the phrase “RED TAPE” into a paper shredder. Other pieces of paper, with phrases like “cumbersome fees and fines” and “a permit you need just to serve ice-cream”, were shredded too. The video, set to Wu Tang Clan’s If Time Is Money, shows Mamdani joining a handful of city officials and small business owners throwing the resulting paper shreds into the air like confetti.

Когда человек впервые слышит про одногодичную магистратуру, обычно возникает один из двух вопросов:

«А так вообще можно?»

«Что из обычной двухлетней программы пришлось выбросить?»

На первый вопрос ответить просто: да, можно. Рассказали про нашу одногодичную программу «Большие данные и машинное обучение».

Firefighters responded to an emergency call and found the bodies, six of which were those of children

A devastating tragedy has unfolded in Michigan after emergency crews responding to a house fire found eight members of the same family, including six children, dead. At least some of the dead inside the home had gunshot wounds.

Deputies with the Ottawa county sheriff’s office and firefighters from the Grand Haven fire department were dispatched at about 11.40am local time on Friday to a residence on Riverside Trail in Grand Haven Township.

• Defending champion takes first pole of 2026 by 0.012sec

• Hamilton and Antonelli receive three-place penalties

The margins were tiny and for a moment it seemed Lewis Hamilton had finally found his edge in qualifying, only for the seven-time champion to be beaten by but a breath. The defending world champion, Lando Norris, pipped him to pole for the Hungarian Grand Prix in a thrilling, dramatic contest.

Worse was to follow for Hamilton as his very real chance of converting a front-row start to a win in his hugely competitive Ferrari took a severe blow as he was penalised three grid places for impeding McLaren’s Oscar Piastri during their final laps. Hamilton will start from fifth place.

В предыдущей статье я описал как я делал DTMF-MQTT шлюз для открывания ворот. Там я мЕльком упомянул, что делалось это как альтернатива телеграм и в общем свою функцию выполнило. В действительности путь был длинней, тернистей, но зато и завел куда дальше: текущее решение ничем не уступает тому что было в ТГ, а кое в чём и превосходит.

Progressive former state senate president gains nomination after Graham Platner dropped out over sexual assault allegations

In a race defined by scandal, withdrawals and a frantic hunt for a replacement candidate, Maine Democrats hit reset on their chaotic Senate primary on Saturday as Troy Jackson officially secured the party’s nomination.

He took the stage at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor to rapturous applause, a standing ovation and Noah Kahan’s Northern Attitude blaring over the speakers.

В первой статье мы познакомились с pg_ilm — расширением Tantor Postgres, реализующим концепцию ILM (Information Lifecycle Management) для PostgreSQL. Оно анализирует жизненный цикл данных, помогает определить, какие таблицы и партиции действительно «остыли», и готовит рекомендации по их переносу в более экономичное хранилище. Теперь пришло время посмотреть, как это работает на практике...
