They never needed it from a technical perspective, it's there to make provisioning easier. Because the carriers were pretty decoupled from the baseband ecosystem, there wasn't a really good way to get the subscriber keys into the radio hardware unless the carrier stuck their nose in the supply chain somehow. Because baseband vendors all hate each other, there wasn't a lot of interest in cooperating to create a standard to do something like that. Plus, Gemalto kept trying to throw monkey wrenches into the committees by doing some quite frankly pretty messed up things.

Regardless, profit is important and someone had to get squeezed out of the BoM of these things being manufacturing in the billions. It finally happened because of a combination of improvements to system on chip security, CMs cracking down on security, and the carriers hauling their EDI based provisioning systems into the 21st century. As a result, carriers can now securely provision devices after manufacturing. AT&T is kind of a jerk about it though, they do some stuff to the SIM when you onboard an unlocked device sometimes to tie it to their network.

I'm still not entirely clear how the keys get distributed in a SIMless world though. The process I use to onboard stuff into Verizon's IoT cloud involves me uploading a CSV file to a server somewhere and making some REST requests, but it's just IMSIs. The virtual UICC in the products like your watch works pretty much the same way, according to my chip vendor. But they have a multicarrier solution where the virtual UICC already knows about the major networks, so maybe they're exchanging keys as part of the OTA activation flow and securing it with a hardware key they give to the carriers in a HSM or something. Or maybe the manufacturers are getting HSMs at the factory and doing it right in the manufacturing process. I tried to wrap my head around the 3GPP documents on the subject and I just got more and more confused.

There's definitely a vendor proprietary aspect to what's going on though, because I can see the OTA provisioning packets in QXDM and it says it doesn't know how to decode them.

India Transport Minister: “We won’t allow driverless cars in India”
Al jazeera is worth watching. Both the BBC and the Guardian, while being foreign regurgitate a lot of stuff out of Reuters (especially BBC when it comes to foreign news). Take a look at NHK -- seemingly highly influenced by the Japanese government, but worth watching for the contrast.

The key here is not to try to find the truth. Rather try to find different reports of the same events (or different editing wrt to what makes the final cut). It's quite hard if you are stuck in English because a huge amount of English language news reports come from the same pool of reporters. These reports are then packaged up differently, but the bias often exists prior to it getting to the final news service. It is interesting (and instructive), to try to find the source of news stories and then write down the names of the reporters whose stories make it into your news. What I've found (YMMV) is that only 3-4 reporters write most of the English language news for reports in certain regions. Those reports are then recycled through all of the news services.

I first started doing this for Japanese news stories when I found serious factual errors in English language news stories related to Fukushima and nuclear power in Japan. In one instance, all of the news outlets reported that the power station near me was restarting within 2 weeks. So I went down to the power station and asked them. They denied the story and in fact, more than 6 years later, they are still not operating (though they do plan to restart soon). When I traced back all of the stories that I could find provenance for in the western press, I found that it all came back to 3 Japanese reporters for Reuters. Since then I've off and on checked western news reports and still find that those 3 reporters dominate all of the western news reports about Japan.

Now, it's crap of me to say all this and not provide any proof. In my defence, I really don't want to get involved in the "fake news" thing going on in the US. It's not my intent to make any accusations, but rather to encourage people to look for themselves. I have not put forth the kind of effort necessary to make accusations that might affect somebody's career. What I'm saying is that it didn't take much effort at all for me to notice that something was not right, so if you look I think you'll also have no trouble seeing it either.

Or I might be mistaken. It wouldn't be the first time it happened.
With Musk talking about AI the way he is, seems to me that he wants to use his reputation and the public's naivety to instill fear and have some control over the distribution of AI that works for general purposes...sounds like a great opportunity.

If he stays consistent with what he says about AI, I think he might be successful in deterring people from using useful and reasonable AI for a while. I wish he would take the dangers of new features like Autopilot in a production car as seriously though.

>>Would you rather have these companies be based out of Asia entirely?

As somebody who stays in Bangalore, I can tell you this is already the case and has been for a few years now.

Back then when I started my career there was a mad rush to move to US in most young people. Today coupled with a impossibly long green card wait, and uncertainties associated with a job on a Visa for most smart people moving to US isn't even an option. I know a lot of smart people for whom moving to US isn't even in their list of priorities.

In the past decade start up ecosystem here has become very good. Starting companies is no longer social or economic taboo in India/Bangalore today.

US people think outsourcing was bad for them? Imagine competing with start ups and their funding, which are operating at 1/10th the budget of any city in US.

Interesting nugget of information here:
> Thanks to Steinar H. Gunderson for pointing out in the comments that the DHCP server on my test network was incorrectly configured. Since I was using a mostly "out of the box" dhcpd configuration from Ubunbtu Linux, it wasn't set up to be authoritative by default, so it wasn't promptly sending NAKs in response to the Galaxy Tab's requests for an old IP address. After fixing the problem on the DHCP server, the Galaxy Tab's DHCP handshake happens quite a bit faster (although still 85 times slower than the Mac).

Set authoritative on your dhcpd.conf! I checked, fortunately mine is set :)
GCC for ARM is pretty great these days, although I can only vouch for it on Cortex-M. I think the code generation is on par with or better than IAR/Keil in most cases, and it's much nicer to use Intellij/VSCode/etc instead of mucking around with dated vendor IDEs.

Though I do like the culture of taking photos instead of experiencing the moment, I do not think social media is the new smoking. People like to be distracted and absorbed.

Fear mongering is easy when it sounds believable. I refuse to accept the equivalence until there's some unbiased research backing these claims.
If it's "router reboot time" something is seriously messed up with your network.

If that's an exaggeration and the iPhone is just booting other random stuff off the network, have you tried just increasing the DHCP lease time? On a home network that just sees the same devices day in and out you could safely set it to several days long.
You could have someone at the door, akin to a Coat check person.

You would need to have a bunch of Packsafe bags. (I think they would work as a Faraday cage.)

Patrons would have to put all devices in said bags. When they leave they get their devices back. You could go to the hootenanny and maybe meet someone new. The days of, "She must be important--she has a smart phone" are definitively GONE.

The sexiest sight is a person without a device. In my world, it's right below wearing fur, or sport hunting.(Yea--I don't like hunters.)

It could even work for large events, like music festivals?

The Device Check person would issue tickets for bags, and patrons could only open Faraday cage when leaving.

I personally hope carrying around a wifi/phone will go the way if the beeper. Only doctors, and drug dealers on duty will carry them, without looking like a wannabe.

They also end up with other host names in the terminal from time to time.
I don't think I've ever seen any design that didn't have decoupling caps across the power lines. I mean, the Murata parts I use have dozens of megaohms of resistance at DC, and the chip is off 90% of the time anyway so there's no energy loss keeping the E-field charges in the cap when the SoC is only drawing whatever miniscule amount of power it needs when it's asleep.

Anyway, TI has stuff like this specifically designed for these applications, so it's kind of a nonissue these days:

Not yet, unfortunately. This is on my list of things to do.

You can however, in most contexts, switch to the "category filter" view by pressing "f" without explicitly engaging command mode. This will switch the view, then focus the search field. So you can type "fcan" and get artist, album, and genre search results for "can". Not ideal, but does work and is still pretty quick.

I remember this feature used to cause a lot of problems with random IP conflicts, but I haven't had an IP conflict like that in years, so it seems they've made it a lot more robust. Or are routers/DHCP servers just less broken these days (I guess since Apple's market share has forced them to)?
Just noting that CoreNLP is StanfordNLP (for those who are unaware).

It's true, and radio technology has a lot of inefficiencies in the analog bits. Digital RF techniques help, but the Rx amplifier and downconverters, mixers, and stuff all lose a lot of energy in the process.

Also, the watch has a clock frequency measured in kilohertz, and the processor is probably some dumb as rocks 8051 variant or something with a tiny amount of static RAM. Big difference in power consumption compared to a 32-bit ARM core.

Cortex-M0s are pretty competitive with that power regime though these days, especially if your application (like the watch) will allow you to run the M0 at sub-1MHz speeds.

Did you not see my previous comment about capital flight?

This is not the middle ages anymore, where peoples' riches are tied up in real estate and machinery. Immovable capital.

Capital is fluid these days. If you start guillotining people for absolutely nothing except being rich (which is what you're insinuating) they'll just leave and take all the capital and productive capacity with them. See Venezuela.
But, a professional plumber or mechanic is probably many times more efficient than I am. I recently fixed the air conditioner in my car by replacing a bad relay. It took me about 5 hours to figure out what was wrong, figure out how to fix it, find the right replacement part and then replace it. A professional mechanic probably could have done it in 15 minutes which they probably would have rounded up to an hour which would still cost me much less than my after tax earnings for the 5 hours it took me. If it had been something more complicated that actually took specialized tools and more specialized skills, I probably would have come out even worse trying to fix it for myself.

Even with something relatively unskilled like cleaning someone who does it every day is still probably at least twice as fast as I am which makes up for the entire cost of taxes even if my hourly rate is the same as theirs.
