Background:

I have an old Seagate BlackArmor NAS 110 that I'm trying to install Debian on by following the instructions here: https://github.com/hn/seagate-blackarmor-nas.

I have a couple of USB to TTL serial adapters (one FTDI chipset and the other Prolific) that I've tried and have run into the same issue with both. I have made the connection to the serial port on the board of the NAS using a multimeter to make sure I've gotten the pinout correct.

Problem:

I'm not able to stop the autoboot process by pressing keys and any point during the boot process. The device also does not seem to respond to any keystrokes although they are echoed back.

What I've Tried So Far:

• Using USB to TTL serial adapters with two different chipsets
• Using the adapters on two different computers (MacBook Pro and a ThinkPad)
• Using different operating systems (MacOS, Windows 10, Ubuntu 20.04)
• Using different terminal programs (Screen, Minicom, Putty)
• Turned off hardware and software flow control
• Tested output of adapters by shorting RX and TX pins and seeing keystrokes echoed back
• Commands seem to be sent to device as when I type I see my commands echoed back (not sure if this is supposed to happen)

I've been at this for a few days and can't figure it out. I've also recorded my screen while experiencing the issue: https://streamable.com/xl43br. Can anyone see where I'm going wrong?

Terminal output while experiencing the problem:

I have an object result which has a property records which is an array of objects with a single sample below:

I am trying to learn a little bit of Shell-Scripting, as Test-Automation seems to get trendier these days.

My grasp of Powershell is quite generic. My current goal is to change the My Computer desktop icon.

There are some things of the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system that I have not touched yet using Powershell. I hope that maybe some more prolific writers than myself are able to give me a hand in reaching this goal.

I have just tested two snippets that have surprisingly run successfully on their first attempts.

The first one may be called as Create_Shortcut.PS1 and creates a desktop icon for the command-line preprocessing system where batch files may be run.

I was looking to include a responsive card template into my project and used one of the templates from CodePen to do this. However, when I copied the code from CodePen to my own platform, The card would not expand when I click on "click on expand" like it is unresponsive. But over here, the code runs fine, but not on the IDE I am using.

Where I got the whole code from initially: https://codepen.io/ryanparag/pen/EOBdOK

The HTML/CSS of the card:

Following is the question from some assignment:

Write a program to read through the mbox-short.txt and figure out who has sent the greatest number of mail messages. The program looks for 'From ' lines and takes the second word of those lines as the person who sent the mail. The program creates a Python dictionary that maps the sender's mail address to a count of the number of times they appear in the file. After the dictionary is produced, the program reads through the dictionary using a maximum loop to find the most prolific committer.

This is one of the code (found online) that works for this question. Could someone explain when do i have to write 'if line.startswith()' and/or 'if not line.startswith()' and if at all we can use both of these codes consecutively line after other?

UPDATED CODE

I'm using this code to claim the use of the serial-2-USB device. It shows up and I can query the info about it, ie. "connected to USB2.0-Serial VID: 6790 PID: 29987" (CH34x from Qinheng). To be clear, I use the winUSB driver (downloaded with zadig-2.5.exe, Windows 10) and have uninstalled the original drivers.

I get the received data as dataview but when I do the decode it comes out gibberish. And I see that the array length pretty much corresponds to what I know my ESP8266 is posting over the serial port.

Example of decoded data: �(#���D"D�T�b�!A#7mP�R�N����#�m93aw9 ½�d-K��b��BF+3ѡ��kag1�R�#��#!!r����g�!d��a��谛oa��399�}��1D�#��'99�����9�����'99���'99����@@譛

I get the data as Uint8Arrays but even if I try to make my own parser the same gibberish is the end result. Do I need to care about USB stuff as in start bits, ack bits etc. etc.? All the example code out there just do a text decoder and that's it.

Please help, regex blown my mind.

I am cleaning data in Pandas dataframe (python 3).

I tried so many combos of regex found on the web for digits but none work for my case. I can't seem to figure out how to write my own regex for pattern 2 digits space to space 2 digits (example 26 to 40).

My challenge is to extract from pandas column BLOOM (scraped data) number of petals. Frequently petals are specified as "dd to dd petals". I know that 2 digits in regex are \d\d or \d{2} but how do I incorporate split by "to"? It will also be good to have a condition that the pattern is followed by word "petals".

Surely I am not the first person that needs regex in python for pattern \d\d to \d\d.

Edit:

I realised that my question without a sample dataframe is a bit confusing. So here is a sample dataframe.

I am trying to get the feature block to show up on the page when I click the open button, but it is not doing anything. I have a sneaking suspension this has to do with the CDNs I'm importing and their position. Or this could have something to do with the order of the relevant tap target sections in my code, I'm not really sure. I followed the Materialize example of how to set this up verbatim, yet it seems like I can't quite get it right.
