- Examples of student exam schedules with assigned dates and partners.
- Notations to ask the teacher or Scott if unclear on exam requirements.
Living green lesson #4
The document discusses green building materials that can be used instead of traditional wood products to help save forests. Some green materials mentioned include bamboo, which grows much faster than trees and can be used for floors instead of wood, newspaper used for ceiling tiles, and recycled glass and plastic used for bathroom floors and walls. Bamboo is actually a grass, not a tree, and grows back quickly after being cut. Using more sustainable materials like these in construction can help reduce deforestation and meet demand for building products.
Living green lesson #3
The document describes several riddles and passages about rooftop gardens and green buildings. It explains that rooftop gardens help keep buildings cooler in summer and warmer in winter by blocking heat from the sun and retaining heat. It also discusses how green buildings conserve water by collecting rainwater from roofs in underground tanks to reuse for flushing toilets and irrigation.
Living green lesson #2
The research center at Oberlin College uses large windows to take advantage of solar heat and light. Solar cells on the roof convert sunlight into electricity, which is stored in batteries and powers the building. The building generates more electricity than it needs, with the excess used to power other campus buildings.
Living green lesson #1
The document discusses green buildings and sustainable development. It explains that the goal of sustainable development is to balance the needs of people with protecting the environment.

3) As Sylvette was listening to her friends' conversation, she noticed something amazing - a beautiful picture appearing above the terrace wall.
Living green lesson #5
The document discusses green buildings and materials. It mentions that some builders reuse old materials in creative ways, such as using old tires packed with dirt to build a women's cultural center. Currently, only a small number of buildings have green features, but many cities are encouraging more sustainable construction techniques, so the number of green buildings is increasing. Over time, more buildings will become healthier and more environmentally friendly.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
