Donnerstag 14:00 – msmash at Slashdot
A complete shutdown of encrypted web traffic isolated China from the global internet for 74 minutes Wednesday morning, blocking citizens from accessing foreign websites and disrupting international business operations that depend on secure connections to offshore servers. The Great Firewall began injecting forged TCP RST+ACK packets to terminate all connections on port 443 at 00:34 Beijing time on August 20, according to activist group Great Firewall Report. The standard HTTPS port carries most modern web traffic, meaning Chinese users lost access to virtually all foreign-hosted websites while … - Yet Another Servers in Go: Understanding epoll, kqueue, and netpoll

Donnerstag 12:00 – Mayukh Suri at DZone.com Feed
Why RAG? Large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 can produce fluent, grammatically accurate text; however, without access to external, updated knowledge, they frequently hallucinate or fabricate facts. This turns into a prime issue in high-stakes environments — like legal, medical, or business enterprise contexts — in which accuracy and accept as true with are non-negotiable. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) resolves this problem by fetching relevant, trusted information from your own knowledge base (e.g., documents, PDFs, internal databases) and injecting it into the LLM prompt. This meth … - Design Automation in Closure Engineering: Building Parametric Assemblies With CATIA and VB Scripting

Longtime Slashdot reader Xesdeeni writes: I received an email indicating Intuit will not support Windows 10 for the desktop versions of TurboTax starting this tax year. Laughably, they say „security is a top priority for us“ before adding: „To use TurboTax Desktop software for tax year 2025, your computer will need to run on Microsoft Windows 11 [or] TurboTax Online.“ I’m just paranoid enough to use the desktop version, since at least it limits what they see to the forms they send to the IRS — rather than everything.

A new review of nearly 700 studies on portable air cleaners found that over 90% of them were tested in empty spaces, not on people, leaving major gaps in evidence about whether these devices actually prevent infections or if they might even cause harm by releasing chemicals like ozone or formaldehyde.
