Ping!
Our VPL server is going to come under a significant load. We monitor the usual system parameters but need to know how much VPL activity it had served. The previous breakdown in to C, Python, etc are not important.

A set consisting of 4.5.10, 5.0.6 and 5.1.3 was released today replacing 4.5.9, 5.0.5 and 5.1.2 of Monday (9 February). The devs decided to make this the "weekly" planned for the coming Monday, I guess.
The security bulletins of both sets are not yet out. As always the security team wants to give people time to upgrade before the vulnerabilities are revealed.

One solution would be for the lecturer to maintain a permanent "questions" course and make the yearly courses to refer to questions there.
Yeah, one time, they have to transfer their question categories to the new "questions" course. We are going through that. It is not a big deal - for our teachers at least - the question categories support export/import in a XML format.
It has the advantage, if lecturers share questions, then each "sharing group" maintain one such "question repository" course.

Go enjoy something/anything outside of Tech? Why? I found the perfect balance. Attending a course on, "How to sew laptop covers". It has both: the hard digital tech packaged in multi-color, soft but rugged cloth. Instructed by an angel.
FYI: The didactic is the same, one does the work, the other talks.
P.S. Cloudflare doesn't believe I'm human. See this red flag permanently - still does what I say!
