Audacity 4.0 beta lets you test its new (and much nicer) Qt interface

Audacity 4’s first public beta arrived this month with the biggest design change the iconic open-source audio editor has seen in decades. The audio editor’s interface, built on wxWidgets since the project began, now runs in Qt. However, the audio engine which handles file I/O, project storage and the built-in effects, uses the older codebase, wired up to the new frontend via a module called au3wrap. In a sense, Audacity 4 is a new look atop the same core engine, although the Github changelog choose to frame it as a “ground-up rewrite” in Qt, that appears to be only relate […]

Стандартизирован HTTP-метод QUERY, комбинирующий возможности GET и POST

Инженерный комитет IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force), занимающегося развитием протоколов и архитектуры сети Интернет, придал HTTP-методу QUERY статус "Предложенного стандарта" и опубликовал связанную с ним спецификацию RFC 10008. Метод QUERY по способу отправки данных на сервер повторяет метод POST, но отличается от него ориентацией не на запись данных и изменение состояния, а на формирование запросов на чтение.

Microsoft enhances Entra and Defender to counter AI-driven identity attacks

Artificial intelligence is significantly increasing the scale and speed of cyberattacks by automating reconnaissance and personalizing social engineering. Attackers are now using AI to chain vulnerabilities and probe exposed systems with greater autonomy than traditional manual methods. Because identity remains the primary entry point for these threats, organizations must shift toward integrated security models that eliminate operational silos.

Метод QUERY по способу отправки данных на сервер повторяет метод POST, но отличается от него ориентацией не на запись данных и изменение состояния, а на формирование запросов на чтение.
По решаемым задачам новый метод близок к GET и позволят отправлять запросы, которые могут быть повторены или перезапущены без изменения состояния на сервере. Как и в методе POST параметры запроса в QUERY передаются не в URI, а в теле запроса. Подобный подход даёт возможность передавать большой объём параметров в запросе, превышающий лимит на размер параметров в методе GET (8000 байт).
