Позавчера Еврокомиссия приняла закон, который обязывает все компании без исключения использовать USB Type-C, как основной стандарт для зарядного устройства. С осени 2024 года гаджеты в Европе должны уже полностью перейти на новую схему.
Есть косвенный побочный эффект: выпуск устаревших устройств с Micro USB в Европе будет невозможен. Я вот до сих пор (редко, но бывает) наталкиваюсь на новые устройства, которые можно купить в магазине прямо сейчас, и у которых почему-то Micro USB вместо Type-C. Видимо, какие-то очень древние складские залежи.
Но куда важнее воздействие на компанию Apple. Годами в айфонах упорно отказывались делать единый стандарт зарядки. Годами люди вынуждены были заряжать не-Apple устройства одним способом, а Apple другим. Более того: даже на новых iPad уже Type-C, но на iPhone до сих пор Lightning. Чем только это не оправдывалось: скоростью, безопасностью, экосистемой. Но на самом деле оправданий нет.
Цитата из одного старого поста @amima:
«Пол Грэм, инвестор и основатель самого авторитетного стартап-акселератора YCombinator, как-то писал: «Uber is so obviously a good thing that you can measure how corrupt cities are by how hard they try to suppress it». Есть явления, общественная польза которых настолько очевидна и проверена временем, что они сами по себе являются мерилом нормы.»
Одинаковый стандарт зарядки и порта передачи данных — одна из таких вещей. Начиная от уменьшения количества проводов в каждом доме, и заканчивая возможностью стрельнуть провод вообще у любого человека, у которого он есть с собой. Со стороны Apple было очень по-мудачески годами выдумывать оправдания вместо перехода на Type-C. Ну, теперь, если они хотят продолжать торговать в Европе, у них не останется выхода. Ждём на очередной конференции объявление об этом, как о революционном собственном решении.

Morocco plans to implement energy projects
In the State Duma, at the "Strategic Session on legislative support for economic cooperation with African countries in the energy sector", Chairman of the Russian-Moroccan Business Council Yuri Sharov spoke about promising energy projects in Morocco.
Among those:
🔹 Projects in the field of renewable energy and energy efficiency, such as solar and wind power plants, as well as biomass and geothermal energy.
🔹 The creation of a coal hub in Morocco, which will become a key element of the region's energy infrastructure.
🔹 Seawater desalination projects. Morocco is interested in companies with their own know-how, as well as the supply of equipment.
🔹 Resumption and development of cooperation with the National Electricity and Water Supply Authority of Morocco on projects for the construction of new power plants.

Russian business in Africa needs official support
During the "Strategic session on legislative support for economic cooperation with African countries in the energy sector" in the State Duma, Chairman of the Russian-Moroccan Business Council Yuri Sharov said that Russian businesses wishing to work on the continent do not have the necessary support from Russian official structures for new economic projects.
According to him, the projects have not formed a comprehensive ecosystem. Preparatory work on a number of initiatives is scattered, many have not reached practical implementation.
"Only the personal inclusion of each of us and the consolidation of efforts, not only of government agencies, but also of business and civil society, will allow us to solve this critically important global geopolitical task. The AREA Association is the right initiative. The problems of Africa and entrepreneurs working on the continent need to be solved with a united front," he said.

There is a demand in Africa for creation of a sustainable energy infrastructure – Babakov
At the "Strategic session on legislative support for economic cooperation with African countries in the energy sector", which was held in the State Duma, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Alexander Babakov said that according to forecasts by 2050, the population of the continent could range from 2 to 2.5 billion people.
"This suggests that the potential of the African continent's energy market is very high. Key indicators indicate that both population growth and strong economic growth will continue. Due to the fact that the basis of GDP in many countries, especially in West and Central Africa, is agriculture and exports of raw materials, there is a significant demand for industrial development, requiring the creation of a sustainable energy infrastructure," he said.
Babakov noted that Russian energy solutions, which have shown their effectiveness and sustainability even in difficult climatic conditions, could become a reliable basis for industrial growth in Africa and ensure a new quality of life for the population of the countries.

To hold a conversation with users, the #bot has to implement a #state machine to keep track of the different paths in the #conversation. This is a pretty common pattern and we don't have a good way to deal with it right now. The #state_machine_bot.py example is far from perfect.
This PR introduces a new Handler subclass called ConversationHandler to take care of this. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, this handler acts only as "management" for the existing handler classes.
Copied from documentation:
A handler to hold a conversation with a user by managing four collections of other handlers.
The first collection, a list named entry_points, is used to initiate the conversation,
for example with a CommandHandler or RegexHandler.

#Wallaroo is a high-performance, open-source framework for building distributed stateful applications. In an earlier post, we looked at how Wallaroo scales #distributed_state. In this post, we’re going to see how you can use Wallaroo to implement multiple data processing #tasks performed over the same shared #state. We’ll be implementing an application we’ll call “Market Spread” that keeps track of the latest pricing information by stock while simultaneously using that state to determine whether stock order #requests should be rejected.
