The Links Theory 0.0.2

Level of difficultyMedium
Reading time26 min
Views60

This world needs a new theory — a theory that could describe all the theories on the planet. A theory that could easily describe philosophy, mathematics, physics, and psychology. The one that makes all kinds of sciences computable.

This is exactly what we are working on. If we succeed, this theory will become the unified meta-theory of everything.

A year has passed since our last publication, and our task is to share the progress with our the English-speaking audience. This is still not a stable version; it’s a draft. Therefore, we welcome any feedback, as well as your participation in the development of the links theory.

As with everything we have done before, the links theory is published and released into the public domain — it belongs to humanity, that means, it is yours. This work has many authors, but the work itself is far more important than any specific authorship. We hope that today it can become useful to more people.

We invite you to become a part of this exciting adventure.

How to Add Any CSS Framework to Your Project. Part 1

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time3 min
Views273

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.

Top Web Parsers and API Services for Data scraping: A Comparison of Speed, Scalability, and Bypassing Protections

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time22 min
Views389

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.

Can we guarantee that there will be no memory leaks due to circular references?

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time4 min
Views346


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++.

A React Native & Lynx i18n solution that keeps your translations organized

Level of difficultyEasy
Reading time3 min
Views163

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.

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.
