There are several ways to integrate a CSS library into your project. By “CSS library,” I mean any modern CSS framework or UI library, such as Bootstrap, NG-Zorro, PrimeNG, etc. While all these methods work, many do not offer great flexibility or support deep customization of the chosen framework.
To build a robust foundation for your design system and ensure easy future customization, it’s best to use the source code styles (SASS or LESS files) instead of the minified version. This approach provides a more convenient workflow, reduces unnecessary code, and increases flexibility.
Automatic data scraping (parsing) has become an essential practice for developers, analysts, and automation specialists. It is used to extract massive amounts of information from websites—from competitors’ prices and reviews to social media content. To achieve this, numerous “scrapers” have been developed—libraries, frameworks, and cloud services that enable programmatic extraction of web data. Some solutions are designed for rapid parsing of static pages, others for bypassing complex JavaScript navigation, and yet others for retrieving data via APIs.
In this article, I will review the top scraping tools—both open source libraries and commercial SaaS/API services—and compare them according to key metrics: • Speed and scalability; • Ability to bypass anti-bot protections; • Proxy support and CAPTCHA recognition; • Quality of documentation; • Availability of APIs and other important features.
The world of AI is constantly evolving, and it feels like every week brings a new tool promising to revolutionize how we work and create. I recently got a chance to try out Gemini Canvas, a new interactive space built into Google’s Gemini app. If you want to know what I discovered and how you might use it, read this article until the end.

The most common types of software bugs are memory management bugs. And very often they lead to the most tragic consequences. There are many types of memory bugs, but the only ones that matter now are memory leaks due to circular references, when two or more objects directly or indirectly refer to each other, causing the RAM available to the application to gradually decrease because it cannot be freed.
Memory leaks due to circular references are the most difficult to analyze, while all other types have been successfully solved for a long time. All other memory bugs can be solved at the programming language level (for example, with garbage collectors, borrow checking or library templates), but the problem of memory leaks due to circular references remains unsolved to this day.
But it seems to me that there is a very simple way to solve the problem of memory leaks due to circular references in a program, which can be implemented in almost any typed programming language, of course, if you do not use the all-permissive keyword unsafe for Rust or std::reinterpret_cast in the case of C++.
If you’re building a multilingual React Native (or web) app, you’ve probably tried react-i18next, i18n-js, LinguiJS, or similar libraries.
But in every project, the same issues come up:
❌ Unused key-value pairs are never removed ❌ Content gets duplicated ❌ Ensuring format consistency across languages is painful ❌ i18next doesn’t generate TypeScript types by default – so t("my.key") won’t throw even if it’s been deleted ❌ Localization platforms like Lokalise or Locize get expensive fast
Frustrated by these challenges, I waited for a better solution... then decided to build one myself: Intlayer.
As part of my scientific and research interests, I decided to experiment with bypassing complex types of CAPTCHAs. Well, by “experiment” I mean testing the functionality and verifying that my electronic colleague can write code on my behalf. Yes, there was a lot of extra stuff—follow ethical norms, blah blah blah… But the simple fact remains: dude, I’m doing this solely as part of research, and everyone agreed.
If your code has many nested executions of stored procedures, you can benefit from building popular "flame diagram" of the execution time which is de facto standard for performance profiling.
Storing all your data in one place might seem convenient, but it’s often impractical. High costs, database scalability limits, and complex administration create major hurdles. That’s why smart businesses rely on Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) — a structured approach that automates data management based on policies and best practices.
With Postgres Pro Enterprise 17, ILM is now easier than ever, thanks to the pgpro_ilm extension. This tool enables seamless data tiering, much like Oracle's ILM functionality. Let’s dive into the challenges of managing large databases, how ILM solves them, and how you can implement it in Postgres Pro Enterprise 17.
– Does your mindset hold you back? – Do you try to look smarter than you are? – Do you avoid difficult tasks to not seem "incompetent"? – Do you believe success is all about talent, not effort? – Do you think working harder means you're less talented?
Hey everyone! I'm super excited to share something cool I've been playing around with: Google AI Studio. It's like a playground where you can build stuff with Google's AI models. So, if you're curious and want to dip your toes into the world of AI, follow along! I'll show you the basics.

How did engineers in the past manage to measure electrical power without modern microchips and DSPs? This article explores the Energomera CE6806P, a device created in 2006 for verifying electricity meters, yet built using 1980s-era technology.
We’ll take a closer look at its design, principles of operation, and how discrete-analog solutions were used to achieve high accuracy. The Energomera is a fascinating example of engineering and ingenuity, giving us a unique perspective on the evolution of electrical measurement devices.
While pg_probackup 3 is still in the works and not yet available to the public, let’s dive into what’s new under the hood. There’s a lot to unpack — from a completely reimagined application architecture to long-awaited features and seamless integration with other tools.
A lot of people around me spend time trading on the stock market. Some trade crypto, some trade stocks, others trade currencies. Some call themselves investors, others call themselves traders. I often see random passersby in various cities and countries checking their trading terminals on their phones or laptops. And at night I sometimes write analytical or backtesting software—well, I did up until recently. All these people share a common faith and a set of misconceptions about the market.

Lately, tons of new Telegram channels, bots, and mini-apps in English have been popping up. Just a year ago, this trend was barely starting — most English-speaking users couldn’t even tell the difference between a Telegram channel and a group.
And now? They’re all in, growing their channels, bots, and mini-apps like crazy. Telegram is turning into a massive platform.
I've had a Reddit account since 2016. I only read and posted in the Python forum (1 million subscribers!). Yesterday, I unexpectedly received a shadow ban. This means that my comments and posts are invisible to others. Essentially, it's read-only.
I created several new accounts from different IPs and devices. It turned out that email verification is no longer required. This process takes 15 seconds. On some accounts, I verified the email, but it didn't help. Here's an example of a newly created account without email verification, and it's still active because nothing has been done on it: https://www.reddit.com/user/No-Half8140/
If you have the ability to receive a verification code via email like dff35fghf@hfhlltgf.com, you'll automatically get a free PRO version of the account, which includes advanced statistics and other perks. However, the account remains in a "pre-ban" state.
Upon testing, I found that all new accounts are in this "pre-ban" state. This means you can change your avatar, read, vote, and the accounts are visible when logged out or from a private browser window.
However, attempting to post on your own wall (which automatically appears upon registration), write any comment in any discussion thread (even in /askReddit and /NewToReddit), create a post in any group, invite someone as a moderator to your wall, or follow someone without karma results in an instant shadow ban. The account becomes invisible from a private window and logged-out devices, the avatar turns red, and it cannot be changed.
The symptoms are the same for all IPs and languages (English, Polish, Russian). ChatGPT says that this is how it is now, and a ban is very likely. However, I see some activity in groups about Moscow and St. Petersburg, which means people somehow manage to pass this test... But how?
Often at work, I encounter services that provide offerings such as resident proxies. Yet, I have never delved deeply into the topic. I have always simply consumed the product “as is,” as some lazy authors like to say.
I have a general understanding of how this type of service works at a layman’s level, and I became interested in exploring the topic more deeply and attempting to share the conclusions I reached through a deeper understanding of what resident proxies are. Let’s see what comes out of it. No recommendations here—just the subjective, evaluative opinion of yet another “specialist.”
Proxy servers are intermediaries between your device and the internet, allowing you to hide your real IP address and alter the appearance of your connection. Think of it as a white camouflage coat in snowy weather, if we speak in very simplistic terms. Let’s start from that—options for camouflage. However, comparing with camouflage coats would be rather dull; instead, let’s recall animals and insects that use camouflage and try to draw a parallel. In fact, I’ve already done so.
