As a former operator in the mid to late 90s I was forced to study TMI. I am pretty sure every operator today has done the same study.

There are several lessons learned there but in reality it is really a case for how to do things going forward. I seriously doubt those mistakes will happen again.

He probably is running it all himself, it's only a 50 customer business. Combined with a day job that allows him to take the occasional personal call, it's very doable.

If you look on the DSLReports Wireless ISP forum, most of the smaller WISPs are doing exactly this, and eventually they may bring a person on to answer the phone, and an installer, but until you get a bit over 200 subs you can do this.

Have you considered the idea of just running standard VNC? I mean using some difficult solution one last time to get remote access, then configuring eg TigerVNC on the remote machine.

There are many different dynamic DNS services you can use to keep a hostname pointing at the right place; freedns.afraid.org is excellent.

There are a metric truckload of free and paid VNC apps for literally every mobile OS too.

If you wanted to go one step further, you could also look into Intel AMT, which provides hardware/BIOS-level VNC on (to keep it simple) pretty much all Core i5/i7 processors, but requires a Windows machine on the local LAN (for security) to run the proprietary app that establishes the connection.

From a purely "back of the envelope" look at it:

If we compare Snap to Ford (bear with me), we're looking at 40% the market cap (20bil vs 50bil) and .3% the revenues (400mil vs. 150bil).

Snap is definitely a valuable company with a lot of future prospects, but is it worth 20bil? Tech companies are extremely young animals and their valuations have yet to reach the accuracy of more established industries. This looks like a classic case of FOMA from investors.

The correction, in theory, should be faster this time around as we've already gained insights from Twitter.

It's not like they'd lose sales either. Depending on the game I'll bet it's pretty hard or even impossible to compile the source into a working game. I'd much rather pay the $5 it's going for on Steam than spend 8 hours playing with compiler settings, library versions, etc. Not even close to worth my time, but exploring the code on the other hand would be really interesting.

I highly recommend Two Scoops of Django and have recommended to every engineer at my company. The one caveat would be that the newest edition is for Django 1.8, so it'd be good to check against the docs periodically if anything looks off. Off the top of my head, the main thing I'd keep an eye out for would be changes to Class-Based Views like permissions mixins, although if I remember correctly, most of those changes were just moving things in django-braces to Django core.

I understand that you think Holder may be justified in saying that the Constitution did not prevent the assassination. I am not a lawyer, and I cannot argue that I can tell you what was meant by those words originally, or how lawyers or judges would interpret those words today.

I can say that in my view, a plain, humane, and just reading of those words does not include a panel, meeting in secret, without any representative of the accused present to defend him, deciding upon his execution. Further, I will say that I think it speaks to Holder's view of the authority granted to large institutions that he was willing to stand by this as justice.

You have to learn SQL to use the Django ORM anyways; it's required knowledge in order to be able to wield the higher level abstraction effectively. However, the way you write a lot of these things in SQL is substantially more verbose and harder to compose.

Assuming DRM restrictions match, and always grant, actual legal rights, you'd be right. For instance, you should be able to break DRM to exercise your legal rights, such as education, quoting, ... In practice, you couldn't be more wrong.

For instance, please show me how DRM would allow me to quote a DRM protected video stream and replay it in court because, for instance, I was personally defamed in said video stream. Or I want to use a Disney movie scene in a video editor to include short quotes in an online course about storytelling. That won't work without the DRM being broken entirely off at my request, but it is my legal right.

What you're saying is a bit like pointing out that every homeless man has the right to do anything Donald Trump or Bill Gates are allowed to do. In theory, yes.
Early versions of Unix were co-operative. While a task executed kernel code, it was not preemptable. That might be the simplest thread synchronization. Masking interrupts is then just for exclusion between the one and only kernel thread, and interrupt context.
I recommend TreeHouse's Django series. I tried other methods (books, blog posts, none really helped me). Not free either, but it really helped. There's a free trial so you can learn Django quickly in 7 days (I did) but I am keeping my membership for now to learn other stuff... (although kinda pricey for me). The series is not up-to-date either, but the basics remain unchanged. You may find one or two syntax / API differences, but that's it.

I also grew up with Django... since 0.9 but didn't really focus on web development using Django, so for me I had to pick it up again from scratch and quick. Two Scoops is a reference book at best IMO. Use it if you are really comfortable with all the basics of Django and you have done at least 6-12 months of Django regularly.
Very much unlike college admissions (where it's relatively hard to get in, and also hard to flunk out of), it is relatively easy to get into and and also easy to flunk out of the enlisted nuclear program. In my class, the failure rate was about 60% overall, and I think that's pretty typical. They start the failure process pretty early, too, starting with the first round of exams. The Navy is happy to find you another job that isn't quite as demanding. Most of the non-nuclear submariners I worked with were "failed" nukes. In college, it seems like folks are more likely to fail out completely then they are to fail into a less demanding degree that they could still succeed in.
Profitable Microsoft and Intel?
Not the OP, but doing something similar. For fixed wireless broadband in rural areas of the US, it's actually not too onerous. The FCC designates certain frequencies as licensed or unlicensed, and the hardware options for running an ISP in the unlicensed bands have increased dramatically in the last 10 years.

The process is basically:

- The FCC designates certain rules, including power limits, for each band.

- Hardware manufacturers build to the rules, get their gear FCC-labeled.

- WISPs (Wireless ISPs) buy name-brand FCC-labeled gear.

- WISPs maintain CALEA[0] capabilities (so 3-letter agencies can spy on you).

- File form 477 with the FCC [1].

...and that's about all it takes from a regulatory standpoint. There are of course numerous other obstacles which must be overcome in the process, but red tape currently isn't the biggest one for our industry.

Rather than attributing this to typical corporate behavior, I think there's a simpler explanation: the source code simply doesn't exist anymore. Source control wasn't especially distributed, pervasive, or reliable in the 90s (at least compared to modern standards). And it's unlikely that anyone official had the foresight to keep a copy around for the sake of digital preservation twenty years in the future, especially given the licensing/copyright issues that would probably prevent legal dissemination anyway. And even if a rogue developer had the foresight to take a copy home and stuff it in a box in the attic, that media has probably degraded to unreadability by now unless they've been actively backing it up for the past few decades.

I'm curious, why do you trust your phone to have a session token for your Google account, but not the TOTP secret? In my view they are essentially equivalent.

Both allow effectively unfettered access to your Google account (with the exception of some account security changes, for which both require your password), both can be revoked from the web interface (arguably a TOTP secret is worse as it can create new session tokens but revoking it doesn't revoke tokens it created). Both can be stolen from unencrypted flash, and stealing either requires root (or privilege escalation, which is effectively root).

This whole "TOTP is weak, use yubikey" argument seems 100% about convenience, with a smattering of pseudo-security backing it up.

Despite having to have Slack for work anyway, I find joining public projects' Slack channels to be too high-commitment, so I never do it. IRC? No problem. I also like that IRC somehow has both a less formal and a lower-BS feel/culture to it.

That is one way to define native. Another is to use the platform native source code and provide access to that. E.g. on Android Xamarin includes an overhead due to constantly passing thru the slow JNI bridge when it needs to communicate with the native UI widgets. It also includes a relatively large overhead because of standard C# libraries that need to be included on iOS/Android.

OTOH Codename One ( https://www.codenameone.com/ ) has a very different interpretation of "native". They use their own widget toolkit like QT which makes them "less native" in that regard. But they are native to Android (being Java based) and translate directly to C/Objective-C which means you can literally write OS native code and use native widgets within the hierarchy.

I think native is a worthless word in that regard as it doesn't properly convey meaning in these sort of complex situations. Once PhoneGap started billing itself as "native" this all went out of the window...

Most doctors don't even recommend breast screening for the under 50. That's not young!

See Figure 1 here to confirm that.

https://canceraustralia.gov.au/affected-cancer/cancer-types/...

Compare this with prostate cancer. Note, the rates at 50 look much lower than breast cancer, but that's only because the increase in later years is MUCH higher than breast cancer,

https://prostate-cancer.canceraustralia.gov.au/statistics

While I can't put a finger on it, I've been advised that breast cancer funding is 6x higher than any other cancer funding. That's unjustifiable, but you won't see the MSM comment on that!

Breast cancer is the 4th biggest killer, yet, it gets the lions share of publicity and funding. Age has nothing to do with it. Check the top 3 and you will see they don't only affect old people.

If it counts for anything, my boss is a health practitioner. She has often ridiculed prostate cancer patients as whiners (but so do many news outlets).

You are not alone in your incorrect beliefs toward prostate cancer. It comes from a barrage of false news in the MSM. That shouldn't be a shock to anybody.

There is a tax that you pay by introducing C++, and that is chasing down things like inadvertent copy constructor/assignment operator calls, automatic memory allocs, and heavy-weight operator overloads, all of which are an inexhaustible source of untraceable performance bugs. In other words, C++ as a language is right at the sweet spot where it does not guarantee safety, while at the same time making performance unpredictable.
