- How did you hear about Codetown?
- Dr. Archibald at Valencia College
- What are your main interests in software development?
- I'm going back to school for a degree in Computer Programming with an emphasis in Java after my bosses saw that I had a decent grasp of debugging and an interest in making things work more effectively. Now I just like seeing what options are out there and coming up with new ideas and solutions through code.

OJUG Meeting Questions
Posted on July 30, 2017 at 2:09pm 4 Comments 0 Likes
Hi All,
I'm interested in attending an OJUG meeting, but I don't see any on the events page. Am I missing something? Is there a standard meeting location I'm not seeing?
Also, do you all do anything through the Meetup app at all? Would you like me to post programming or tech meetups that I see in my groups for the Orlando area? I saw that Michael added PyCon, but there are others out there that may be interesting as well and I'd be happy to help fill the Events page for people…
ContinueHappy 10th year, JCertif!

Linux Security Tools Bypassed by io_uring Rootkit Technique, ARMO Research Reveals
Security researchers at ARMO have uncovered a significant vulnerability in Linux runtime security tools that stems from the io_uring interface, an asynchronous I/O mechanism that can completely bypass traditional system call monitoring. The research demonstrates how attackers can exploit this blind spot to operate undetected by most existing security solutions.

Thoughtworks consultants successfully harnessed generative AI to decode legacy systems lacking source code. Using Gemini 2.5 Pro, they accelerated reverse engineering, creating validated "blueprints" of functionality in just two weeks. The pilot showcased AI's potential to drastically reduce time and risk in modernizing opaque systems while balancing speed with validation.
By Matt FosterIntroducing the MCP Registry
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem is enhancing AI development with a public registry for server discovery and a secure gateway for agent interactions. This initiative, featuring the recently launched MCP Registry and the Linux Foundation's Agentgateway project, streamlines the management of AI tools, fostering collaboration and security for engineering teams.
By Andrew HoblitzellPresentation: Chatting with Your Knowledge Graph
Jonathan Lowe explains how to connect an LLM directly to a structured graph database using a rapid prototype. He demonstrates how to use sentence embeddings and semantic search to allow natural language queries to retrieve and analyze structured data. This approach enables a local LLM to answer complex questions by leveraging the relationships within a knowledge graph.
