CacheBrowser experiment: bypassing the Chinese firewall without a proxy by caching content

Level of difficultyMedium

Views431

Today, a significant portion of all content on the Internet is distributed with the use of CDNs (Content Delivery Networks). At the same time, there is no research on how various censors extend their influence on such networks. Scientists from the University of Massachusetts analyzed possible methods of blocking CDN content using the example of the practices of the Chinese authorities, and also developed a tool to bypass such blocks.

We (specialists from proxy service) have prepared an overview material with the main conclusions and results of this experiment (translate of this material).

How to Save on Your Netflix Subscription: A Step-by-Step Guide Using Proxies and Antidetect Browser

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time3 min
Views543

Corporations that dominate the market can impose their conditions on customers. This is also the case with everyone's favorite Netflix. When you make good content and you are sure that your audience wants to consume your content, you can start to increase the subscription price gradually. But the distribution of subscription costs around the world is unequal. This happens not only with Netflix, it happens with many big corporations: Microsoft, Sony, etc.

Naturally, everyone wants to watch high-quality content, but no one wants to overpay for it. And that led to creation of different schemes, for example, the one I'm going to describe here.

The essence of the scheme is simple – you buy a subscription for another region while staying in your home region. Of course, you can do this, but before I describe the scheme in detail, you should understand that Netflix is not as simple as it seems. When buying a subscription, for example, as a user from Pakistan, you should know that only the content that is allowed in that country will be available to you. Meaning, any sign of eroticism in movies, for example, is forbidden there.

And now this scheme appears in a completely opposite light. You can use my scheme if you want to access content that is blocked in your country, but you need to be prepared that the price will not be the same as for your region.

Top Three cheapest countries (in terms of the Netflix subscription price)

Dual Reliability Requests

We are requesting 20,000,000 euro to place 900 orders on the exchange. What could go wrong?

Today, I will explain how to avoid losing billions in client money when executing large transactions on the exchange. This discussion focuses on an often overlooked and largely invisible problem that arises when handling large requests, particularly HTTP requests, which may not be fully executed. It's surprising how little attention is given to this issue and how few tools there are to address it.

Our task was to implement large-scale management of exchange orders, not just within a single exchange but globally, and to ensure it operates reliably. In this story, you'll encounter clients, servers, and cats. Stories are always more enjoyable with cats.

Prospects for the development of modern GTP and an alternative way of their development

We wrote this article in an attempt to figure out what technical level gas turbine installations are currently at, as well as to understand what the prospects for their development are. At the same time, in our manuscript, we tried to consider an alternative energy conversion scheme that will increase energy efficiency, which will allow for more efficient use of natural resources. We are not completely sure that the alternative scheme presented by us will be workable, since many factors that may affect its operation have not yet been investigated. But as the Chinese philosopher said, "you can't travel a thousand li without taking the first step." We ask the Habr community to read our article, we hope for a constructive conversation.

British Airways столкнулась с хаосом в выдаче багажа из-за конфликта с платформой Vodafone. Путаница в багажной системе произошла сутки назад. Она была настолько серьёзной, что пассажиров отправляли на рейсы без зарегистрированного багажа, а многие до сих пор не могут получить его. При этом рейсы также отменялись, и пассажирам приходилось оставаться в аэропорту, так как им не предоставляли отель.

Авиакомпания была вынуждена перейти на ручную проверку багажа, а многие чемоданы не долетели до пунктов назначения.

Проблема возникла в терминале 5 аэропорта Хитроу. Теперь там советуют пассажирам проконсультироваться с British Airways перед поездкой в ​​аэропорт.

ИТ-отделы British Airways и Vodafone совместно работали над решением проблемы конфликта их платформ, которая оказалась «системной».

В 2022 году рейсы авиакомпании приостанавливали из-за сбоя в приложении для планирования полётов. 

Ранее в этом году British Airways объявила о плане трансформации на сумму $8,8 млрд. Так, будут обновлены веб-сайт и мобильное приложение. British Airways также пообещала, что «передовые технологические системы стоимостью в несколько миллионов фунтов, искусственный интеллект и машинное обучение помогут рейсам отправляться вовремя, что создаст 350 новых рабочих мест в Хитроу».

8 simple ways to improve UI/UX of any software product over time

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time4 min
Views459

Creation of a UX design for a software product is an ongoing process: it doesn’t stop after the product is released. In order for an app or a website to always remain comfortable to use while corresponding to the constantly changing trends, its UX design must be improved from time to time, and in some cases even rethinked and radically changed. An outdated, old-fashioned design with unimproved bugs will definitely spoil user experience and lead to loss of audience. Design improvements include not only bug fixing and “brushing up” the facade of a product, but also constant research and implementation of new ideas that can contribute to its growth. Let’s discuss a few simple steps that can improve the UX design of any product.

What's wrong with the term «Artificial Intelligence»?

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time4 min
Views434


Recently, there has been a lot of talk about the success of artificial intelligence (AI), although this usually means another achievement in the field of generative neural networks.


And few people, speaking about AI, try to explain what they themselves understand by the term “artificial intelligence.” After all, it’s one thing to write about “AI problems,” and quite another to endow an ordinary computer algorithm with at least the rudiments of intelligence.


After all, the etymology of the established phrase “artificial intelligence” is not unambiguous and can take on different meanings depending on what meaning the author is trying to put into it.
