25-year-old IT developer Alexander Kachkurkin was detained in Russia immediately after being deported from Kazakhstan and arrested on charges of high treason. According to the human rights project «First Department», the grounds for criminal prosecution could be money transfers to Ukraine.

From my observations, generative AI is sliding into the valley of disappointment. The peak of inflated expectations and wild excitement has already passed.

A call to a clinic: the operator cannot immediately make an appointment because the Internet is slow due to shelling, and promises to call back. They say goodbye, and the patient waits for a call. The operator has to record the lead in the CRM, look at the doctor’s schedule, and offer the patient an appointment. But he switches to new requests and forgets about the promise. In conditions of such multitasking and stress, even an attentive employee can make a mistake. For businesses, these are constant risks: lost customers, broken agreements, reputational damage. It’s not just about medicine — similar scenarios are repeated in other businesses. However, often it’s not the fault of the employee, but the result of «manual» processes. dev.ua, together with IPTel, a developer of systems for communications automation, tells what technologies help «insure» businesses against human errors and how it works in practice.

When the plan does not match reality, retail loses billions. According to POI and McKinsey estimates, up to 35% of all sales losses in FMCG are related to the human factor: 25% — poor implementation of standards, 8-10% — out-of-stock products (absence of goods on the shelf, — editor’s note). Empty shelves in stores and costs are a mirror of a systemic problem in the industry: there are agreements, but retail is still built on the human factor and manual processes that cannot be controlled on a large scale.

Semen Nenashev is 27 years old. Talking about himself, he mentions several statuses: father, veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war, a person with a disability due to a combat injury, and a QA engineer. His biography includes an IT career, service in a strike UAV unit, a serious injury, and a return to civilian life with a disability. He does not romanticize the war and does not embellish his path. The veteran from Aiti shared with dev.ua his story not about «successful success,» but about a choice that haunts him.

In early February 2026, Bitcoin (BTC) fell below the psychological levels of $80,000–75,000, trading around $76,000–$77,000 per coin — the lowest since mid-April 2025. According to market aggregators, the price of BTC has fallen by almost 30% in recent weeks from its October 2025 peaks, when the cryptocurrency broke through levels above $120,000. This decline has brought Bitcoin to local lows, which were last observed in the medium term last year. Market observers call this a significant correction, which has been going on for several weeks, and daily trading volumes and investor interest have significantly decreased. We tell you what is happening in the dev.ua review.
