Has anybody had a root canal?
  • No future issues. But there isn’t that much of the tooth left, I have a crown there which is most of what’s visible. Make sure you look up or have explained to you the steps of the procedure so you aren’t surprised.

  • Two never-before-seen tools, from same group, infect air-gapped devices
  • So far, we haven’t been able to trace back to the initial compromise vector in the campaigns seen in our telemetry.

    They hypothesize that attaching a compromised USB drive to an air gapped system is to blame. That seems to be a well known vector at this point. Does it matter much what tool is used to copy data once it’s in?

  • Has anybody had a root canal?
  • I’ve had a number of cavities repaired but only one root canal. It wasn’t a fun day, sure, but one thing that I appreciate was that it was such a complete fix for the problem. Some of my other work has had to be repaired, or I’ve had more issues on the same tooth. But with the root canal I went from being in a lot of pain to having none at all.

  • How do you set up wake up alarm and not miss it ?
  • I’m really sensitive to light when I sleep. I’ve got blackout curtains, no annoying little lights on any devices, the usual. One of the advantages is that by having a smart light bulb set to gradually turn on alongside my alarm, it really wakes me the hell up. Maybe try incorporating a light to yours?

  • Boeing's Starliner Lands Successfully, but Without Its Astronauts on Board.
  • Also worth mentioning that as the ISS was being constructed, its planned retirement was to be about 2015. We’ve been able to massively extend its operational period, which is awesome, but the materials can’t last forever.

  • Have you ever tasted your pet's food?
  • I bought some fancy biscuits for my dogs from a local company. Ingredients are basically oats, cheddar, bacon, rosemary. I could 100% kill this whole bag if my dogs didn’t look so devastated when I ate their special treats.

  • What smell do you love that you’re not supposed to love?
  • Potassium cyanide. We used a very dilute form of it as a laboratory reagent (a safer alternative to its cousin hydrogen cyanide, in case that’s what you’re thinking of). It just smells clean - sort of like a candle that’s labeled as “fresh laundry” or “spring breeze”.

  • Does drinking coffee have any effects on a sore throat?
  • The words you said aren’t wrong, but in this context it seems like you’re suggesting that the honey in tea might have a similar effect when consumed. That’s not at all supported by this study. Much of honey’s antimicrobial effects are (1) due to its high sugar concentration, and (2) in reference to topical applications. Those conditions don’t exist here.

  • Recommend me a scripting language
  • My go to for most of what you mention is Go, but that’s obviously a compiled language and not for scripting. Or is it - What do you think about https://github.com/traefik/yaegi, which provides an interpreter and REPL for Go? It would let you use a performant and well documented language in a more portable scripting way, but not preclude you from generating statically linked binaries if and when that’s convenient.

  • If Clinton, Trump, and Did Not Vote were presidential candidates in 2016
  • I believe this is based on survey data where they asked who folks would vote for and included “none of the above” as an option. It doesn’t mean that those people didn’t, in the end, select a candidate to vote for. It just represents a general displeasure with the options available.
