Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI models securely connect to various data sources and tools, like files, databases, APIs, and cloud services, to get real-time, relevant information. This helps AI give more accurate, up-to-date, and context-aware answers, reducing repeated data processing and improving efficiency. MCP also supports automation of complex workflows and integration with many platforms, making AI more powerful and flexible. However, running MCP servers requires careful security measures to avoid risks like unauthorized code execution. Using MCP can save time, reduce costs, and enhance AI capabilities for tasks like chatbots, data analysis, and system control.

📰 I don't use Tailscale or Nginx to access my home lab remotely, here's what I use instead
One of the most useful services to any home labber is a VPN, so that you can access your home network from anywhere and browse as if you're at home. That not only lets you use any self-hosted services you have on your NAS without having to open ports to the wider internet, but it also circumvents any geo-blocked services and nicely encrypts your data, so nobody can snoop in.

While I was playing with Python #asyncio I got interested in how well it performs serving data over TLS compared to #Nginx. So I implemented a small HTTPS server with asyncio:
👩💻 Nginx Path Configuration Pitfalls.
• Nginx — это веб-сервер, на котором работает треть всех сайтов в мире. Но если забыть или проигнорировать некоторые ошибки в настройках, можно стать отличной мишенью для атакующих. Благодаря этому материалу, можно понять какие ошибки в конфигурациях встречаются чаще всего и как их исправить.
Attacks:
• Nginx Configuration Vulnerability;
• Exploiting Trailing Slash Misconfiguration;
• Exploiting Parent Directory Access;
• Impact Without Trailing Slash on Alias;
• Combined Impact.
Defend Against Attacks:
• Update Nginx;
• Configuration Check;
• Use Configuration Management;
• Security Headers;
• Access Control;
• Directory Listing;
• Alias Traversal Protection;
• HTTP to HTTPS Redirect;
• SSL Configuration;
• Rate Limiting;
• Connection Limits;
• Custom Error Pages;
• Gzip Compression;
• Client-Side Caching;
• HTTP2 Protocol;
• Secure File Permissions;
