?? future options ?? : Unix bootable from a cassette tape drive? :-)

?? c-64 unix server with ports to hook up one or more c-64's via CaTer (Cartridge Terminal) -- perhaps best done via tcp-ip 'ports'.

?? fuse[1] for c-64 to be able to 'read' other floppies / c-64 unix swap space over tcp-ip.??

?? "modern" 5.25" for c-64 via c-64 variant of greaseweazle[2] ??

Is there anyone around at time of trying to fix the bug who has experience with what's generating the issue? aka database administrator, system administrator, senior developer, head of the senior project/department IS person. The CT machine generated a software error.

Are the log enteries mutually exclusive / distinct?

Do the log entries 'box'/narrow down the 'bug' possibilities?

Are the log entries misleading or incomplete? (aka system crashed/rebooted before full set of log events received/saved vs. event(s) not setup to send info to log(s))

Was it a user/OS/application/application environment issue(s)? aka one off or multiple set of circumstances pre/post bug.

Is there enough information to attempt to figure out what happened? aka level of understanding of description of what happened can be different for user, database administrator, operation system administrator, programmer, web developer, etc.

end pc user: keep pressing the foot pedel but unable to control stuff on screen. --> foot peddal in this case was a standard mouse unplugged from computer.

If initially was a research project, might be a thesis paper(s) / research documentation on what looking for.

Running software is insecure the moment the electrical switch is on / start checking out shrodingers box. Although, reverse shrodingers cat might be more accurate. aka can escape the box if someone peaks from outside the box.

for 'command line' stuff: If just shell text (aka, a-z,A-Z,0-9), then crude way would have a program sit between inbound ssh and database. Would need to determine how to send back error notice if something not allow. aka in "not OK" set (rm, move, chmod, etc). May need to break-up 'single line grouped commands' aka using end of line as marker, can send multiple sequences of shell commands per "new line" aka echo "example"; ls *; etc.

awk/gawk works nicely in this role. see awk filtering standard input concept -- demo concept[0]. Perhaps use ncat[4] instead of 'pipe'.

Perhaps make default shell rsh[5] used in sshfs[6] setup and set up rsh restrictions.

More technical, would make use of ebpf -- demo concept [1]. This would be able to handle non-ascii input.

Total overkill would be making use of kernel capabilities or pseudo-kernel capabilities via ptrace related things[2].

humor ip : Should the TV program Stargate's security door covering the portal have been called 'ncat' or '/dev/null'?

Without a study area/focus, kinda difficult to recommend "Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs"[0].

What about a trip to discipline of choice version of MIT's media lab[0]. Take the applied and deconstruct the theory. Use the theory deconstructed to build new applications. Pal Alto's 'media lab' of the day worked for inspiration for Apple.

Tuning in to the music side, research history of The Beetles. "Now and Then" theme song for checking out what was innovative then vs. now. aka studio setup/figure out how to do what want vs. today's equivalent 'iPhone pocket studio'. Suppose with the relevant background, could research the friction between a music teacher instructing students with an electrical engineering background. Was that The Beetles downfall?

For less quantum mania, and more visual, go semiotics & architecture:

-----------------------------------------------------------

Ask several people around you for a book/article. Find common way to associate aforementioned topic with article(s)/books provided. Extra credit if can present in a specific style/area.

aka Socratic method, humanities architectural style, etc. Does a corinthian ping pong ball contents vary more than a the contents of a doric ping pong ball? Iconic ping pong ball might be easier to build an ascii/utf pictorial association/representation of contents (ascimation). How many sprinkles have to covered the exterior of a ping pong ball before the interior contents change? (how long does that take?)

It'll give one some practice on techniques to approach things in different ways.

Can always go for the short variation on:

    A short story that incorporates four elements of classic literature;  Religion, Sex, Nobility, and Mystery... 
    "Oh my God" said the Princess, "I'm pregnant, and ignore who the father is!!!"[1]

    "My God," said the Queen.  "I'm pregnant.  I wonder who did it?"[2]

Terminal situation doesn't have to result in Doom[5]. Just use a different set of dimensional constants[6] to get a fuller process picture[6] perhaps with pi instead phi as foundational constant for more rounded picture.
