Dirk Eddelbuettel: tidyCpp 0.0.1: New package
A new package arrived on CRAN a few days ago. It offers a few headers files which wrap (parts) of the C API for R, but in a form that may be a little easier to use for C++ programmers. I have always liked how in Rcpp we offer good parts of the standalone R Math library in a namespace R::. While working recently with a particular C routine (for checking non-ASCII characters that will be part of the next version of the dang package which collecting various goodies in one place), I realized there may be value in collecting a few more such wrappers. So I started a few simple ones starting from simple examples.

Grep and Map in Perl
Both grep and map operate on lists: both input and output are lists. Perl grep that resembles Unix grep. Both are essentially an shorthand for the foreach loop and their execution involves execution an implicit loop over all elements of the list that is passed as the second argument. The have great value as in simple cases they allow to write more compact and faster code.
Their main value is not a new functionality, but the ability to make the code more compact and transparent. Both functions accept two arguments: the first is an expression and the second is the list or array.
The main difference between them is that grep can just select certain elements from the array or list, while map can transform them into a new array or list. That means that grep can be implemented via map, but not vice versa

New Proposed Standard to ensure secure time on the Internet
The Proposed Standard for Network Time Security (NTS) has today been published by the IETF as RFC8915. This comes at the end of a five year development process. As one of the leading figures in NTS, Netnod has worked on all stages of NTS development from the IETF standard to software and hardware implementations at client and server levels. The publication of the NTS Proposed Standard as an RFC marks an important milestone in the development of secure time on the Internet.
The current standard for receiving time information over the internet, the Network Time Protocol (NTP), was created in 1985. Over the last 35 years, a number of issues as well as some high-profile attacks have shown that NTP needs an increased level of security. The new Network Time Security (NTS) standard has been designed to fix that.

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future Tech
The metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world.
Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility.
