Picture from #39c3 from yesterday. It’s always great to be here

What abomination is this?! Cron in Linux is deprecated and replaced with user systemd scripts. Feels like employing a contractor to build Ikea furniture.

I guess this will be the first time in years that I’ll be missing the #39c3 event. No ticket, no go :-( With a few omissions in the late 1990’s I’ve been going since 1990! More time for the family this year.

Actually, I think you are right! How does one submit a Python PEP?

I think Python 3.14 should be the final version of Python. It’s such a round number.

While exposing hosting yet another Llama will just cost you some money, be aware that fine-tuned models are your IP and need protection. Worse, vector stores also store the actual documents. Please don't do this!

The Road to Agentic AI: Exposed Foundations Our research into Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) systems uncovered at least 80 unprotected servers. We highlight this problem, which can lead to potential data loss and unauthorized access.

A month ago, I noticed that people are exposing their AI/ML infrastructure on the internet often without proper authentication. Read about the details here: www.trendmicro.com/en_us/resear...

Totally agree with not using that word. But why not stick with the simple word 'posts' - nothing wrong with that

I doubt this, his dog would have done less damage

Morcote, CH

I guess Porto Ceresio used to have a small shipping terminal

This is new. Instead of just one train being canceled, the alternative also needed replacing. Deutsche Bahn is really the worst

ChatGPT is like a politician. A lot of words, no knowledge

I’m giving it a spin though I don’t really use social media much
