As we continue to advance the capabilities of natural language processing (NLP) systems, one key challenge remains at the forefront of text retrieval systems: how to efficiently split and embed long documents to retain contextual integrity while still enabling fast and effective retrieval. While transformer models have significantly improved the quality of text embeddings, they still face limitations when it comes to understanding long texts, especially when split into smaller chunks. This often results in the loss of important contextual information, which can degrade the quality of retrieval tasks.

As the Rails framework continues to evolve with version 8, so too do the considerations for building robust and scalable applications. While Rails offers excellent abstraction over databases, the underlying engine you choose SQLite or PostgreSQL being two prime contenders can significantly impact everything from development speed to production stability. SQLite, the default out-of-the-box, offers ease of setup, perfect for getting started quickly. PostgreSQL, on the other hand, brings enterprise-grade features and scalability crucial for growing applications. Choosing between them isn’t always straightforward.

Protecting user credentials is one of the top priorities when building secure web applications. Simple methods like Base64 encoding may obscure data, but they aren't encryption and can be easily reversed. To truly safeguard usernames and passwords, stronger mechanisms like SHA-256 hashing and RSA encryption are essential.

In this blog, we'll walk you through implementing a more secure approach—combining RSA's public/private key encryption with SHA-256 hashing. You'll also learn how to upgrade from basic Base64 to this robust model, enabling end-to-end encryption for login flows and ensuring sensitive data stays protected in transit.

When we hear the term "black box," what usually comes to mind? A mysterious, sealed object that gives us results but leaves us scratching our heads about how it works, right? In the world of artificial intelligence (AI) and neural networks, the "black box" refers to a model whose internal workings are difficult to interpret or understand. You feed data into it, and it spits out predictions or classifications, but the process in between is anything but transparent.
