on: How the U.S. National Science Foundation enabled Software-Defined Networking
Unless the goal of the backdoor is to redirect traffic flows through packet inspection devices that the attacker also controls, the decoupling of the control and data plane in SDN deployments requires a more creative, intricate solution to allow for wiretapping compared to traditional routers.

You can actually enable search in codex but adding the following to the config file
[tools]
web_search = true

I will look into adding this in a future update.

The graph functionality is stubbed but I will expose it in a future update. You can also use metadata and tags for similar things.

I may explore this when I implement the vectordb implementation I started.

While the examples and provided prompt lean toward code (since that's my personal use case), YAMS is fundamentally a generic content-addressed storage system.
I will attempt to run some small agents with custom prompts and report back.

I have been using it for task tracking, research, and code search. When using CLI tools, I found that the LLM's were able to find code in less tool calls when I stored my codebase in the tool. I had to wrangle the LLMs to use the tool verse native rgrep or find.
I am also trying to stabilize PDF text extraction to improve knowledge retrieval when I want to revisit a paper I read but cannot remember which one it was. Most of these use cases come from my personal use and updates to the tool but I am trying to make it as general as possible.

I stored the codebase for yams in the tool. The "blocks" are content-defined blocks/chunks, not filesystem blocks. They're variable-size chunks (typically 4-64KB) created using Rabin fingerprinting to find natural content boundaries. This enables deduplication across files that share similar content.

I have not, but that is something I plan to do when I have time.

I am working to improve the CLI tools to make getting this information easier but I have stored the yam repo in yams with multiple snapshots and metadata tags and I am seeing about 32% storage savings.

The graph functionality is exposed through the retrieval functionality. I may improve this later but the idea was to maximize getting the best results when looking for stored data.

The tool has built-in versioning. Each file gets a unique SHA-256 hash on storage (automatic versioning), you can update metadata to track version info, and use collections/snapshots to group versions together. I have been using the metadata to track progress and link code snippets.

That should be fixed now. It was a misconfiguration of CloudFlare SSL with GitHub Pages.

on: Microsoft Security-101: Open-Source curriculum
Microsoft does take security pretty seriously with windows. There have been times they make mistakes, but historically, they are doing better now than they were in the early 2000s before Bill Gates sent a memo noting that they needed to take security seriously. You could argue they take security as serious as any major play like apple and google, seeing they touch a lot of private user data.

Technically, avalanche is a US coin. It was also the first proof of stake crypto currency but I have not seen it picking up much traction in the US.

Avalanche was not the first proof of state crypto currency.
