30 Oct '24

[Oxford CompSoc banner graphic] [6th Week] Michaelmas Term Week 3 Newsletter Cafe Study Social, Sushi Social and More! Welcome Back, Traveller, It's Week 3 already and we're back with more of your favourite events! After a fun night of Competitive Programming yesterday evening, we have a roster of new and old events in store. On Friday, we'll be taking some time to do some diligent work in the first study session of the term! We'll be at Common Ground to work through some problem sheets together in a friendly environment. Afterwards, we'll head along to the Department for a talk from our sponsors at Helsing! We'll be kicking off Saturday with the continuation of our Learn to Code series – join us at Jesus College again to progress further along the path to programming success! Afterwards, join us at the Undergraduate Social Area for a brand-new sushi social! We'll be enjoying some sushi while playing some Jackbox party games. As usual, we end the week on Sunday with another bootcamp session for Competitive Programming. If you felt rusty in our contest last night, make sure to come along to sharpen up your skills! — Declan, your ever-untrustworthy CompSoc envoy Fun Computing Fact: Last term, I mentioned the proposed standard for IP over semaphore, but I neglected to mention the more commonly known proposal... IP over Avian Carriers! First described in RFC 1149 in 1990, this proposal describes the use of homing pigeons to carry Internet Protocol data packets. It's even been updated to support IPv6! IPoAC was first implemented in April 2001 by a Linux usergroup, with nine pings sent over three miles. Four response packets were received – a packet loss of 55%, with an average response time of 87 minutes! Still not a member? How?!

CompSoc Newsletter Week 2!
by Declan Osborne 21 Oct '24

21 Oct '24

[Oxford CompSoc banner graphic] [6th Week] Michaelmas Term Week 2 Newsletter Competitions, Talks, Ice Skating, Learn to Code and So Much More! Salutations, Learned Friends, Welcome to Week 2! As we cross into the flow of the term, we have a tsunami of events coming this week for your delectation, including some starting at CompSoc for the first time ever! We're kicking off this week of events today with an introduction session to capture-the-flag! Come down to the Department at 7pm to join us for the first of CompSoc's CTF sessions, a new set of cybersecurity events held by us for the first time! On Tuesday, those fortunate few who succeeded in bagging a free ticket for ice skating last week will join us at Oxford Ice Rink. Running into Wednesday, we continue the week's cybersecurity theme with a talk at 5pm in the Department hosted by David Colombo, a cybersecurity expert. We have a barrage of events headed our way on Saturday, with the launch of our Learn to Code series this term at 5:30pm at Jesus College! If you're worn out afterwards, you can head along to our Saturday Social at 7pm in the UGSA for a typical relaxed evening of pizza, chat and snacks. Finally, we close off the week on Sunday at 1:30pm with the second session of our new set of Competitive Programming bootcamp events! Come along to the UGSA to hone your skills ready for the contest next week. — Declan, your ever-trusted CompSoc envoy Fun Computing Fact: We may be used to hearing about world-changing events through the Internet first these days – but that certainly wasn't true for the budding users of Usenet in 1991. However, when high-ranking politicians in the Communist Party of the Soviet Union launched a coup against President Mikhail Gorbachev in 1991, those online were the first in the West to know! Although the KGB took traditional media off the air and state television played nothing but Swan Lake, the Interfax news agency used the Kurchatov Institute's RELCOM network to share news of the coup attempt with Usenet, allowing the Western world to keep up to date with the situation. Internal protests and international pressure prompted the failure of the coup, and the Soviet Union dissolved only four months later. Still not a member? How?!
