April 9 CS Table location: JRC 224B, noon.
This week we discuss "The Autocrat's New Tool Kit" by Richard Fontaine and Kara Frederick, which appeared in The Wall Street Journal on March 15, 2019.
Computer science table (CS Table) is a weekly meeting of Grinnell College community members (students, faculty, staff, etc.) interested in discussing topics related to computing and computer science. CS Table meets Tuesdays from 12:00–12:50pm. Most CS Tables for the spring semester will meet in JRC 224B inside the Marketplace, though a small number will be in an alternate location, so watch each week for the location. Contact the CS faculty for the weekly reading. Students on meal plans, faculty, and staff are expected to cover the cost of their meals. Visitors to the College and students not on meal plans can charge their meals to the department (sign in at the Marketplace front desk).
This Friday at CS Table, Simon and Jeff will present the information contained in packet headers and lead a continued discussion on network surveillance. We suggest the following reading (as much as you have interest or time for):
As usual, we'll meet a little after noon in JRC 224A.
Students who are registered for CSC 295: We'll be doing sign-ups for after fall break. Please bring your calendars!
