    When the white house gives advisories like this, that's when you pause. What they should be doing is promoting good practice and education on how to avoid such issues. After all, mainstream applications and OS's are still written in those languages.

    Exercising may lead to injury and you don't want that, so we promote doing other things instead.

    ... When all else fails, read the instructions
