Why choose "outdated" C in an era of hype? A 22-year veteran argues its "dangers"—manual memory and pointers—are its strengths. C isn't about quick wins; it's about fundamental control. Let's see why: u.habr.com/fCAza

Big data analytics forces a choice: fast wide-table queries or flexible multi-table queries, but rarely both. Engineers are stuck flattening data, which hurts real-time performance. A modern OLAP db must master both: u.habr.com/5My4t

If an LLM is a holographic probability field, what makes it move? The "Narrative Engine" hypothesis suggests it's a mechanism forcing the LLM to follow coherent stories. This reframes prompting—we're not programming, we're initiating a narrative: u.habr.com/mKYT2

Is an LLM creative or just a statistical parrot? Some see a new mind, others just an archive. The paradox is that both views feel right. Maybe we're asking the wrong question. It's not about what it does, but what it is: u.habr.com/Fyt0P

Stop "testing everything". It’s just creating alert noise and hiding real problems. Google & Monzo already quit this method. It's time for targeted checks at high-impact nodes. See the 4 tips to fix your data quality: u.habr.com/fY6hr

Privacy is a high-stakes game, and our phones are the field. Relying on "user awareness" is a losing strategy. Developers must build the first line of defense. This isn't just compliance; it's a practitioner's mental model. Let's see the checklist: u.habr.com/divVs

Using an LLM to auto-gen SQL? Easy, right? Just replace your analysts with an API. Except no one's piping sensitive data to OpenAI. And self-hosted models choke on PG17. This game is harder than it looks. We boosted accuracy by 33%. See how: u.habr.com/ugYqn

Ah, the mythical distributed=true parameter. If only it were that easy! Sharding isn't magic; it's a total rethink of your schema, keys, and queries. This guide takes a clear-eyed look at the real trade-offs — where you gain and where you pay: u.habr.com/czlZk

Migrating from Oracle to Postgres Pro Enterprise is a minefield. While Postgres Pro has features to ease the pain, the common ora2pg tool ignores them. A new utility, ora2pgpro, was built to bridge this gap: u.habr.com/FSGWS
