From knowing to doing — Phase 4 of the Jarvis AI Platform The Problem with Knowledge-Only AI After Phase 3, Jarvis could remember you across sessions and search your documents. But it still had a fundamental limitation. You: "What is the weather in Kathmandu right now?" Jarvis: "I don't have access to real-time weather data." You: "What is 2847 × 391?" Jarvis: "The answer is approximately 1.1 million." ← WRONG An AI that only knows things from training data is useful. An AI that can do things is transformative. That is what Phase 4 built. What Is a Tool Engine? A tool engine gives the AI model the ability to call real functions during a conversation. The flow looks like this: User: "What is the weather in Kathmandu?" ↓ AI Model ↓ "I should call WeatherTool" ↓ WeatherTool.getWeather("Kathmandu") ↓ "22°C, Clear sky, Humidity: 45%" ↓ AI Model ↓ "The weather in Kathmandu is 22°C and clear." The key insight: the AI decides when to call a tool and with what input . We don't hardcode "if user asks about weather, call WeatherTool." The model figures that out from the tool descriptions we provide. The Architecture Decision The most important architectural decision in Phase 4 was the package structure. ai . jarvis . tools / ├── JarvisTool . java ← marker interface ( root ) ├── ToolRegistry . java ← manages all tools ( root ) ├── builtin / ← built - in tools │ ├── DateTimeTool . java │ ├── CalculatorTool . java │ ├── WeatherTool . java │ └── WebSearchTool . java └── mcp / ← MCP protocol └── McpServerConfig . java Why not put tools inside ai/ ? The ai/ package handles HOW Jarvis talks to AI models. Tools define WHAT Jarvis can do. These are fundamentally different responsibilities. Mixing them would mean every new tool requires changes to AI infrastructure code. Keeping them, separate means adding a new tool requires exactly one file. The JarvisTool Pattern Every tool in Jarvis implements one interface. /** * Marker interface for all Jarvis tools. * Spring auto-discovers all @C

Force nginx to TLS 1.3 An nginx server is accepting an old TLS version, and the exam wants it locked to TLS one point three. The config lives in a ConfigMap. The catch is that editing the ConfigMap alone changes nothing. Let's do it the way the CKA expects. 🎥 Watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx-77YBw99w This is a CKA Workloads & Scheduling walkthrough. Every command below is real output from a live cluster, and you can reproduce the whole thing yourself (scripts at the end). The scenario An nginx-static Deployment serves HTTPS, and its server config comes from a ConfigMap named nginx-config. Right now it allows both TLS one point two and one point three. Your task is to allow only TLS one point three, then make nginx actually use the change, so that a TLS one point two request fails. nginx-static serves HTTPS from the nginx-config ConfigMap It currently allows TLS 1.2 AND 1.3 Restrict ssl_protocols to TLS 1.3 only A TLS 1.2 request to the Service must then fail How nginx, ConfigMaps, and rolling restarts fit together Two ideas drive this. First, ssl_protocols is an allow list; leave only TLSv1.3 and nginx rejects any older handshake. Second, a ConfigMap mounted into a pod updates the file on disk, but nginx only reads ssl_protocols when it starts. So you must roll the Deployment, with kubectl rollout restart, for the new value to take effect. Inspect the current state Start by seeing what is running and what the config says. The nginx-static Deployment, its Service on port four forty three, and the nginx-config ConfigMap are all here. Grep the rendered ConfigMap for the ssl_protocols line: it lists TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3, so old clients still get in. $ kubectl -n nginx-static get deploy,svc,configmap NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE deployment.apps/nginx-static 1/1 1 1 17h deployment.apps/tester 1/1 1 1 17h NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE service/nginx-static ClusterIP 10.96.13.162 <none> 443/TCP 17h NAME DATA AGE configmap/kube-root-ca.

Erik Steiger discusses the operational pain of legacy PDF generation in regulated banking and manufacturing. He explains how transitioning from resource-heavy engines like Puppeteer and LaTeX to a serverless Rust architecture powered by Typst can drop render latencies below 2ms. He shares how applying Git and Docker concepts to template registries ensures ironclad compliance and rapid debugging. By Erik Steiger

Rocket Lab will own satellites connecting the most remote corners of the Earth.

Comcast has announced plans to separate itself into two publicly traded companies, spinning off its NBCUniversal and Sky broadcasting arms. The shake up aims to protect the media conglomerate's profitable broadband and wireless brand, which will retain the "Comcast" company name, as its media and entertainment business - now collectively named "NBCUniversal" - faces increasing […]

A sneaky rule change has the potential to blow up scientific research in the United States. But there's still time to fight it. On May 29th, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued a 412-page proposal to revise federal financial assistance. The language is a combination of distinctly Trumpian attacks on "woke" policies and […]

This virtual panel brings together AI security experts to examine the evolution of AI-driven threats, from prompt injection and data poisoning to agent abuse and AI-powered social engineering. The discussion explores emerging attack patterns, incident response challenges, and the changes security teams must make as AI systems become more autonomous and integrated into critical workflows.

In this episode, Heroku co-founder and Ink & Switch founder Adam Wiggins argues for a 'local-first' architecture that reconciles cloud-based collaboration with the performance and data ownership of local software. He explores the role of CRDTs and version control primitives in non-code domains, and examines how a hybrid AI future might leverage local models for core productivity tasks. By Adam Wiggins

The 1970s porn actress turned New York City late night public access queen says censorship and a lack of star quality among modern adult entertainers turned her off of the industry.

We’ve taken one small step towards robot police officers: a drone capable of disarming a suspect: In a June 22 video posted on the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office’s Instagram page, an officer wearing goggles can be seen operating a drone to retrieve a knife from an armed suspect hiding inside a cluttered house. “After not responding to negotiators, a drone was deployed inside the residence,” the post says. “Drone pilots located the suspect hiding in a corner of a garage” and then used a high-powered magnet attached to the drone to grab the knife out of the suspect’s hand. In the video ­ which is soundtracked by the “Mission: Impossible” theme song—the intercepted knife can be seen spinning around in the air as the drone carries it back to the deputies...
