TLDR: A demo speaks louder than a thousand words. You can connect to an isolated browser created by me and my team via browserling.com/browse. We run isolated browsers on our servers and stream just the browser window to you. ## Isolated Browser – What Is It? An isolated browser, also known as browser isolation is a...

A professor of semantic data processing channels Harry Potter to explain the role of advanced vector databases for better AI/ML performance.

Decentralized applications, where the identity and application data are both controlled by the person using the app provide the means of disintermediting companies who leverage their privileged position to work for their own interests and against ours.

If you're doing AI but would rather not do InfiniBand, this NIC is for you

The Linux kernel supports a wide variety of filesystems, many of which are no longer in heavy use — or, perhaps, any use at all. The kernel code implementing the less-popular filesystems tends to be relatively unpopular as well, receiving little in the way of maintenance. Keeping old filesystems alive does place a burden on kernel developers, though, so it is not surprising that there is pressure to remove the least popular ones. At the 2023 Kernel Maintainers Summit, the developers talked about these filesystems and what can be done about them.

DSOC, an experiment that could transform how spacecraft communicate, has achieved ‘first light,’ sending data via laser to and from far beyond the Moon for the first time.

This document provides the GNU Name System (GNS) technical specification. GNS is a decentralized and censorship-resistant domain name resolution protocol that provides a privacy-enhancing alternative to the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. This document defines the normative wire format of resource records, resolution processes, cryptographic routines, and security and privacy considerations for use by implementers. This specification was developed outside the IETF and does not have IETF consensus. It is published here to inform readers about the function of GNS, guide future GNS implementations, and ensure interoperability among implementations (for example, pre-existing GNUnet implementations).

This document describes technical mechanisms employed in network censorship that regimes around the world use for blocking or impairing Internet traffic. It aims to make designers, implementers, and users of Internet protocols aware of the properties exploited and mechanisms used for censoring end-user access to information. This document makes no suggestions on individual protocol considerations, and is purely informational, intended as a reference. This document is a product of the Privacy Enhancement and Assessment Research Group (PEARG) in the IRTF.

Walk through an example to explore Terraform’s IaC benefits, including multicloud support, state management and deployment previews.

Have you heard of webmentions? They’re similar to pingbacks—but modern—and allow websites to notify each other about different types of activity (like replies on social media). As of 2017, the protocol is a W3C recommendation.

It allows a user to be served with a personalized adapter while enhancing the LLM's response by adding recent data as context.

What is Kafka? This article explores how the event streaming platform works, its key features, and the skills needed to use it.

Beyond a mere buzzword, multicloud offers significant benefits for IT architectures. Here's what's on my wish list.

As Moore’s law continues to slow, delivering more powerful HPC and AI clusters means building larger, more power hungry facilities. “If you want more performance, you need to buy more hardware, and that means a bigger system; that means more energy dissipation and more cooling demand,” University of Utah professor Daniel Reed explained as a

Last week in our Error 402 series on the history of web monetization, we wrote about the earliest forms of web advertising: banner ads. As we noted, this “simple” way of making money seemed to dera…

Building new kernels and booting into them is an unavoidable—and time-consuming—part of kernel development. Andrea Righi works for Canonical on the Ubuntu kernel team, so he does a lot of that and wanted to find a way to speed up the task. To that end, he has been working on virtme-ng, which is a way to boot a new kernel in a virtual machine, and it does so quickly. He came to the 2023 Linux Plumbers Conference (LPC) in Richmond, Virginia to introduce the project to a wider audience.
