Five questions for Dr. Rubin, who’s armed with a mic and a bowtie

Dr. Rubin’s feed Bullshit is cheap but truth is expensive. Anyone with half a brain cell can post wild misinformation that goes mega viral, which wastes the time and expertise of highly trained people who feel an obligation to inform others of the truth. Today I want you to meet one of those highly-trained people, Dr. Zachary Rubin, who works on the front lines against scientific and medical misinformation. Rubin is a pediatric allergist and immunologist and author of the book All About Allerg

HTTP QUERY in Java: The Missing Method for Complex REST API Searches

HTTP methods in REST API design are more than technical details; they communicate intent between clients and servers. A GET request instructs the server to retrieve a resource. A POST request typically indicates that data should be processed, often creating a new resource. PUT indicates replacement or update, while DELETE signals removal. These methods are well-established and fundamental to the Web. Despite this, API design has long faced a notable gap.

Deploying Multi-Turn RL Infrastructure for Amazon Nova on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod

In this post, you deploy a two-phase infrastructure for multi-turn RL using Amazon Nova Forge on Amazon SageMaker HyperPod. By the end, you have an event-driven pipeline that starts training when you upload data to Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). The training job teaches the model to play Wordle, a placeholder for your own RL task.

Automatically redact PII in images with Amazon Nova

In this post, we present a multi-step pipeline directed by Amazon Nova, which uses its contextual vision reasoning to coordinate complementary tools, including Meta’s open-source Segment Anything Model (SAM 3) deployed on Amazon SageMaker AI for pixel-level segmentation, and Amazon Textract for optical character recognition (OCR). This pipeline is designed to provide comprehensive and compliant PII redaction even for challenging edge cases such as fingerprints, ID cards, or license plates in arb
