Managing disk space is a key responsibility for sysadmins, developers, and DevOps engineers alike. Over time, temporary directories, media folders, and backups accumulate outdated or oversized files that eat into precious storage. Left unchecked, this can lead to full disks, failed deployments, or even data loss. In this tech concept, you’ll learn how to clean up…
Managing disk space across a fleet of remote servers is a common challenge for DevOps engineers, system administrators, and IT teams. Manual inspection doesn’t scale, and missing out on low disk space warnings can result in critical failures. In this tech concept, we walk you through setting up an automated disk usage audit system across remote Linux…
Disk space management is a critical aspect of maintaining healthy systems, whether you’re working on servers, personal workstations, or even development environments. In this tech concept, we’ll delve into the basics of the du command—the Unix utility for estimating file space usage—explore advanced tips for sorting and filtering results, and discuss real-world scenarios to free up…
In performance-critical computing environments specially in Gaming Rig, understanding the limits of your disk subsystem is just as important as testing CPU or GPU. Whether you’re evaluating a new SSD, tuning a server for IOPS, or benchmarking storage for a high-availability system, Fio (Flexible IO Tester) is a powerful open-source tool that lets you stress test and…
If you’re working with Hugging Face’s transformers and peft libraries on Windows, you’ve likely seen messages or warnings related to model caching, symlinks, and environment variables. This guide demystifies how Hugging Face handles model storage, how to change the cache locations, and how to resolve common issues — especially on Windows. What Is Model Caching…
Kali Linux stands as a powerful platform for cybersecurity professionals, ethical hackers, and penetration testers. This tech concept walks through the top 10 ethical hacking techniques and provides ready-to-run bash script snippets for each. These scripts are ideal for information gathering, vulnerability discovery, and penetration test preparation, all within a secure and legal context. Over the past 20 years, I’ve seen how…
Storing PDF or DOC files directly into a database can be essential for enterprise applications, document management systems, and cloud-based platforms. Java provides robust APIs for file handling and seamless integration with various databases, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB. For over two decades, I’ve been igniting change and delivering scalable tech solutions that elevate organisations…
Storing PDF and DOC files in databases is a common requirement in enterprise software, legal platforms, HR systems, and content management solutions. Whether you’re using MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB, the key lies in how your chosen programming language processes files into a format that the database can store efficiently and reliably. In my 20-year tech career, I’ve been a catalyst…
Storing PDF, Word, or document files in a database is a common requirement in modern web applications, especially in document management systems, HR software, legal tech, or fintech platforms. While cloud storage is a popular approach, storing files directly in the database offers several benefits in terms of consistency, auditing, and control. I’ve spent 20+…
Modern applications frequently need to handle image uploads – whether for user profiles, product catalogs, or document management. While cloud storage solutions like S3 work well for large files, databases provide better transactional control for smaller images where data integrity matters. Two decades in the tech world, I’d spearheaded groundbreaking innovations, engineer scalable solutions, and…
Image upload functionality appears in nearly every modern web application, but it remains one of the most vulnerable features if implemented incorrectly. Hackers constantly exploit weak upload systems to distribute malware, hijack servers, and steal sensitive data. Just one compromised image upload can bring down your entire application. With 20+ years of experience, I’ve partnered…
Storing images efficiently is a critical decision in application development. Should you keep them in a database as BLOBs (Binary Large Objects) or store them in a filesystem/cloud storage and reference them via paths? Each approach has trade-offs in performance, scalability, cost, and maintenance. With 20 years of experience driving tech excellence, I’ve redefined what’s…
Companies today are drowning in policy documents, employee handbooks, and compliance guidelines—but finding specific answers quickly remains a challenge. What if employees could simply ask questions in natural language and get accurate, instant responses from an AI trained on your exact documents? In my 20-year tech career, I’ve been a catalyst for innovation, architecting scalable…
In today’s fast-paced corporate environment, employees often have questions about company policies—from attendance rules to leave entitlements and codes of conduct. While traditional intranets and HR portals provide static information, generative AI offers a more interactive way to access policy information. For over 20 years, I’ve been building the future of tech, from writing millions…
AI continues to revolutionize how we solve complex problems, and model fine-tuning plays a key role in this transformation. Whether you’re building smarter chatbots, domain-specific vision models, or personalized LLMs, fine-tuning lets you customize powerful pretrained models with significantly fewer resources. Over the last 20 years, I’ve gone beyond coding mastery—championing strategic leadership that propels…
Fine-tuning large language models has revolutionized natural language processing (NLP) by allowing us to adapt powerful pretrained models to specific use cases. Whether you’re building a domain-specific chatbot, sentiment classifier, or text summarizer, fine-tuning helps bridge the gap between generic language understanding and task-specific performance. For over two decades, I’ve gone from crafting millions of…
