Generally there is said to be 3 parts to 5G.

The first is eMBB: Enhanced Mobile Broadband. In other words faster mobile internet. This is where most operators start.

The second is URLLC: Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications. This is mainly aimed at using 5G for things like self-driving cars. But also things like long distance remote control. This is where people see potential for innovation without being clear what the exact innovation will be.

The third is mMTC: Massive Machine Type Communications. This is meant for IOT but also for factory control. The IOT thing is mostly allowing extra low battery useage, low speed, cheap connnectivity. The factory control thing is about getting the advantages of 5G (and e.g. URLLC) and allowing a factory to quickly set up their own private 5G network.

This is on the consumer facing side. On the operator facing side, infrastructure is moving more towards virtualization and decoupling. Trying to make it easier to use multiple vendors, and stop requiring custom made hardware. And in general, moving towards commodity hardware and something closer to 'infrastructure as code'.

This also helps roaming and virtual operators (for e.g. the factory control). It also helps a bit with the ultra low latency part by decentralizing the routing part and moving it closer to the devices.

So "what is 5G gonna do for me" is mostly the 'faster internet'. But the idea is that it will enable widespread innovation that you can later use. With some luck (governments are thinking) being ahead in deploying 5G might also help boost your economy by boosting innovation.
Or dry aging beef.
It wouldn't even be the first time Chinese labs have leaked dangerous pathogens so it's entirely plausible. People who reject the theory outright are just not living in a reality based world. It has happened before and it'll probably happen again.
There is no nice little write up somewhere.

I have written about it -- quite a lot over the years, in fact. I did so to manage the situation as best I could under difficult circumstances and those many posts have been pretty consistently redacted over the years.

I'm frankly really freaking tired of writing about it and don't really feel a strong desire to try to find some means to write about it as some kind of edutainment for random internet strangers, so don't hold your breath waiting for me to do a write up. That's probably not really in my best interest and I'm just amazingly exhausted with the whole thing at this point.
What exactly is patented? Really, nobody else can make e-ink? It doesn't seem like this idea is in any way original.
Interesting——we’ll find out. So far I see evidence in e.g. the much-discussed switch from “master” to “main” on GitHub and the now omnipresent community codes of conduct. To my mind this is a cheap kosher certification that the vast majority of organizations comply with. Do you have contrary examples of pillarization to date?
So every article must address both sides? Always? This is like complaining that one picture of black harvard law graduates didn't include black women (yes, I actually saw this on linkedin)

This article is clearly about how all of these false accusations and woke mobs ultimately harm minorities.
Looks only at "income" while ignoring wealth
ok but the parent comment was discussing policing and blackness in America, I don't agree with their conclusions but at any rate comparing that situation to policing in Munich doesn't really make much sense.
> not that hard

I'd beg to differ. To read a moderately complex piece at the speed at which it is played while playing is tougher than most other skills that I've acquired. If it weren't hard then it probably wouldn't be the major reason lots of people give up music, the notation is inconsistent, hard to read, requires mode shifts, requires a lot of attention and can get extremely cluttered. It is anything but easy, but of course, once you've mastered it completely it might feel easy. Just like computer programming feels easy to me. But that doesn't mean that it is easy. It's just something I've been doing all my life so the underlying complexity has been long ago internalized to a level where I'm not really thinking about the code, just about the problem I want to solve.
Not all causes are made equal, and they're not necessarily important to the same degree for everybody. That's not being "privileged" or "ignorant", that's the patent truth.
damn dude you're high IQ I can't believe you snuffed out such a highly sophisticated astroturfing campaign like that. +1.

I have time and time again debunked fake news sent to me by friends whom usually I would call intelligent, and kindly asked to next time do a minimum of fact checking. It's useless.

It's depressing but people don't care about truth. Not acknowledging this will give you a lot of frustration.
I remain optimistic that society will outgrow its desire to feed the hate machine. The younger generations will realize how stupid it is and outrage bait will be relegated to the corner of the internet for angry millennials, just like mainstream news and the boomers before us.
This (both the article and the comment) makes me think of David Allen’s concept of “appropriate engagement”. Outrage is how to end up with a growing todo list each week.
Sure, people will have instinctual reactions; but if I dangle a naked girl in front of a man, most will get an erection and desire for sex. But even in this fantastical scenario, it doesn't make rape any more tolerable- because we expect human beings to be able to control their basic instincts. Isn't that what separates us from animals after-all?
thank you. sorry if you see my prior rant.
These are reasons why it is extremely sad that the larger and more consumed outlets are collectively deciding to not report on stories, or on each other. If Breitbart is the only major outlet reporting on a factually correct story, that's a failure of the institution of journalism, not a success for Breitbart.
And the consequences of being accused of sexism by an
online mob have now become so extreme that many investors
don’t want to risk it anymore.

Forgive me, but, what exactly are these "consequences"? I can see it for e.g. line employees, especially in communications or media roles, but for investors? What happens, they lose some Twitter followers? Slightly fewer companies beg them for money? I've never ever heard of an investor suffering at all because of social media outrage and I'm tempted to speculate it's never happened.
That's a nice thought, and might work if the person can articulate the differences well enough. But the entire point of the article is that no matter the argument or ability to make it, there is a fear that the woman might claim sexism simply because he suggested she step out of the CEO role and let the other person (a man) have it (reasons be damned). Even if everything was fine among those 3 people, someone else might take to twitter and frame it as sexist - especially if the advice was taken.
> Unless of course they make a point of writing in the "polytonic" system that includes the diacritics, which they will invariably tell you is because "that's more correct". In truth, it's not more correct, it's anachronistic and archaic, but it marks the person out as someone who is e r u d i t e.

Indeed, Greek language definitely needs a spelling reform.

> These tools collect dust because software nowadays doesn't only have to be written, it needs to be maintained and adapted.

Everyone loves making and using a new, shiny, "life changing" tool. Very few people would stick around at a job (or indeed, apply for a job) to maintain that tool.

Creation is easier compared to understanding and adaptation to change.

It's similar to how we get little/no feedback from job interviews and applications because of a couple of outliers making giving feedback not worth the trouble

Has it always been this way or was there a time long ago where it's common to receive feedback? (I've only been working professionally for ~5 years)

Same here. As a tech-interested kid growing up in the 90's, a very significant amount of my formative years and social development has happened online. I'm now starting to realise what a mistake that may have been (not that I could have avoided the temptation, even if I knew it for what it is).

I have recently completed a digital purge, and now have no social media accounts at all (except HN), and no smartphone. Fortunately I live in a country where that is still viable, but I am excited to re-build my life in "real life".
Hmm yes very good distinction to make. Certainly heard plenty of arguments on both sides and I'm pretty split.

I think this is separate, though - we're talking about an individual illness (common cold) driving out another individual illness (covid-19). Not so much to do with general hygiene than it is to do with specific bio-interactions between viruses.
I don't know about most of Europe, but in Norway, we use a 2FA system called BankID. You authenticate with either with your phone using a custom SIM app, or an app, or a OTP device. This system is used for everything from banking, to checking taxes, medical records, or signing documents.
This is very soothing.

Anyone who has Jacobian anxiety will surely be cured.
Also, what timestamp were they using for this comparison? EXIF data? Filename (some cameras store the filename of images/videos as the datetime it was taken)? Filesystem time it was written, and was that on the camera or when the files were dumped to a computer and saved there one after another sequentially?

There could be several potential sources for this "timestamp," but I haven't seen the one they are talking about actually mentioned.
The irony is that the Bristol protesters are doing a great job at swinging public opinion towards the bill.

The police have been really accommodating of protests. It’s an incredibly fine line they have to walk, between the fairly soft rules of engagement, the right to protest, and the COVID restrictions.
In the Culture individuals have the opportunity to live however they want. If you want to go all-in on hedonism and stray away from the mid-life crisis, there's nothing stopping you.

The fact that death is optional, allows individuals to live life on their own terms.

I have this issue with my SO where I'll sigh heavily and she'll interpret it as me disapproving of whatever she just did or did not do, inventing scenarios in case there's no immediately obvious cause.

Instead my head is somewhere else entirely, and I might have been annoyed at myself for forgetting to pick something up at the store or whatever.

We've gotten better at handling it, I try to remind myself to immediately tell her it wasn't her, and she asking me what it was if I forget. But there has been a lot of unnecessary bad times that originated from such episodes...
Sure, no problem, I understand. I often feel that both sexes have lots of their own problems and we won't ever be able to empatize with eachother however strongly we want to.

The Wasp Factory left a mark - on me, and the British literary establishment.
Sincerity, authenticity and healthy humility are virtues. I wonder if our feeble to non-existent outrage for this new age of ubiquitous control is a quiet self-awareness of our own dishonesty, pettiness and teetering integrity. Maybe we know we are shit and want some form of automated atonement, eg surrendering ourselves as digital assets and prostrating before strange nannies.

I'm not sure of wealth or admiration, but one can be certain that s/he'll be both seen and "known" in this epoch, mostly by the unknown and unseen.
Weird Fruit Explorer just did an episode on these if you want to see what they're like: https://youtu.be/IKZsMNfRiRE

The whole channel is fascinating. Probably my favorite niche YouTube channel. I had no idea just how many edible fruits are out there and how strange many of them are. Makes me want to quit my job and travel around the world finding thousands of weird fruits to eat.
I had an experience at work where a coworker (who is black) shared his experience of being told to "stay in his lane" early on in his career. The insinuation was of course racism, he didn't mention it but it was obvious. Then I and someone else (who are white) shared our exact same experiences.

He told me he felt cut off, etc, even though we were sharing the same experience. If we had something similar happen, how can he definitively attribute that experience to racism? Even if it was, that was not the point of the conversation. We were all sharing our experiences on that topic and no one mentioned race. Why do we need to bend ourselves backwards to make sure all minorities feel comfortable all the time?

The point here is you can't talk to minority groups about anything these days, if you are white.
This article would resonate with me almost entirely if not for this part:

> Here’s the thing — the world right now, despite all its problems, nastiness and tragedy, is far better than it was a hundred years ago. The world a hundred years ago was better than it was a hundred years before that. In other words, the world might not be improving fast enough for you, but it’s improving every day.

Optimism is wonderful and necessary, and also I think it's important to recognize ways in which the world might not be improving every day. I think optimism is great when it's forward looking and about hope. When applied backwards, I don't personally like it that much. I'm reminded of this short (12 minute) video clip "In Defense of Optimism w/ John Nichols" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj7pN6Assu0
I could not see myself working for such a company.
It's a matter of risk mitigation.

Either a person accepts extreme, but very unlikely, risk by exercising perfect candor with everyone or they decide to clam up around people lower on the 'oppression hierarchy' which costs them almost nothing to do.

Why would any rational actor not choose option B unless they're getting some reward great enough to offset the risk of option A?
I think the flaw in this is that crypto mining will take place regardless of whether the source of the electricity is green or not, and regardless of whether the electricity is excess capacity or not.

Crypto mining is a business; they may find it beneficial to mine during both peak and off-peak hours, and they're unlikely to care whether the electricity is coming from wind or coal, so long as it's cheap enough to turn a profit.

So as a side effect, yeah, it may make building new renewable sources more feasible, but it's a big shotgun and there's a lot of collateral damage.
Yeah, attractive males can say bunch of "nasty" stuff to females and it is considered flirting rather then mobbing

As always, context is everything.

I'm not buying this. Birth rates are down all across the board in developed countries.
I'm not claiming and have never claimed that my gender is the sole factor. I also have a serious medical condition and that's a big problem.

But the issue is that I get told, both implicitly and explicitly, that my gender isn't really an issue at all. Even your comment basically hand waves off my gender as a factor.

I appear to be the highest ranked woman on HN. I appear to be the only woman to have ever spent time on the leader board.

I don't even need that much income. If I could just get enough resume work, I would be content to do resume work part-time at $50/page. That would work for me and I can't even arrange that.

I believe my gender is a factor in my failure to adequately meet my financial needs. It is not at all constructive for people to keep telling me the many, many other reasons I am poor as a means to implicitly say "Sure, sexism is a factor, but it's not the only factor, so quit pointing it out because it makes the guys uncomfortable."

That practice is exactly why so many women (people of color, etc) are so very angry. If people would simply acknowledge that my gender is actually something complicating my efforts to network and establish an adequate income and then spend time wondering what would work for me instead of dismissing it as "not the real reason" I'm poor, I would probably be okay financially.

I'm not asking to get rich overnight here.
When I was first enrolled at University of Illinois of Chicago in 1985, your SSN was your student ID. You could log in to the mainframe using your SSN in the username field (although thankfully, the actual user ID was a sequentially assigned five-digit number and not the SSN. I was U10754). I think around 1986 or 1987, universities were instructed to stop using SSNs as student ID numbers.
It looks like your account has been using HN primarily for ideological battle. We ban accounts that do that, regardless of what they're battling for or against, because it's destructive of the curious conversation this site is supposed to be for.

you know I could have answered from personal experience and toll you that I have absolutely no reason to believe that silence causes anyone any harm whatsoever nor will silence be construed to your detriment by any court and my experience with this includes courts in which I believed I was going to get nothing except for a prejudicial hammering on all points

but I haven't even ever heard anything said in any court about the accused giving a no comment interview. never.

I probably shouldn't have gone to such length as I did earlier only to respond to your questions, either, but the reason why I replied at length is because it is so important for people to learn how much everything is biased against the individual member of the public in every way beginning with our popular understanding of the applicable laws and logic.

the warning that you quoted, the UK Miranda equivalent warning, people somehow always seem to think applies to subsequent procedure in particular the interview process.

if you are arrested on suspicion of committing a crime, the first thing you should do is to establish whether you should have been arrested in the first place and prior to letting anything else further happen to you.

obviously this is a little difficult when you are in custody.

police station solicitors even for large firms are a neglected and weary bunch totally disconnected from the rest of everything that is going to happen to you. right here is the worst disconnect of incentives imaginable because the actions of a smart lawyer in the earliest stages of every proceedings can have disproportionate and incredibly serious consequences.

I wrote to tell anyone who is in such a position where possible to get a barrister specialist in police law to consult with as soon as you have gained any understanding of the situation at all.

this will not make your solicitor happy. but a solicitor who refuses the instructions of their client in the UK commits a crime and your life is not a joke but the kind of service for anyone in this situation who hasn't prepared or already gotten good connections, sure makes you think someone's laughing at your rights.

it should be obvious that you want to stop the police before they think that spending time and resources on finding evidence to incriminate you is a good idea. But it doesn't seem to occur to anyone that this is when you can do this and about your only chance very likely.

I think the majority of arrests are actually unlawful in the UK, because it has been standard procedure for all of my lifetime and the knowledge of anyone older than me I've asked, to automatically go arrest the person of interest and bring them in to custody as if that's their perfect God given birthright. Well heck it is not!

I only hope by my admittedly rather long comments that somebody who has to go through things like this can possibly experience UK LEO without a bunch of unnecessary fears and emotions and prejudicial ideas in their heads that are altogether doing nothing except work against the individual freedoms and rights which we still mercifully but effectively tragically don't in effect often really have.
Drugs are getting weird, but I suppose that was predictable. In fact, here's a prediction from 11 years ago.

The world is more addictive than it was 40 years ago. And unless the forms of technological progress that produced these things are subject to different laws than technological progress in general, the world will get more addictive in the next 40 years than it did in the last 40.

> Money is a separate system that often but not always flows hand in hand with the flow of energy and resources.

It is an exception when money doesn't flow hand in hand with energy and/or resources not a rule as you are implying

> Not every organisation.

You are moving the goalpost here. Your claim wasn't that few organizations don't run on energy and resources. Your claim was that no organization runs on energy and resources.

> Remove money from the stock market and you have barely anything left. Large portion of money circulates in organisations that have very little to do with energy or resources.

Stock market is an organization which has everything to do with energy and resources. Money is just used as an abstraction of those. Remove energy and resources of companies whose stock is being traded and you have nothing left.

Considering that your claim was that human organizations run on money and not on energy and resources I'm sure you won't have a problem naming a few of those organization. Just pleas don't name those where money is just an abstraction of energy/resources because those organization do actually run on energy and resources.
