Existing phased-array antennas cost, at a minimum, tens of thousands of dollars.

Getting Starlink Dishy to around $2,000, and I understand it's closer to $1,000 by now, is an incredible engineering achievement. SpaceX didn't accomplish that by overengineering the shit out of it.

I do not doubt that now that this problem has cropped up SpaceX will address it. If they don't, if in a couple of years this is still a problem with the system in full operation, then criticism would be justified.
I was referring to the ability of developers at big tech companies to command half-a-million a year comp, competitive with some doctors, lawyers, and consultants. Those days could be over if Congress gets it’s way (though I hope not).

Of course CEOs are in a whole different social and compensation stratum, but that’s a different story.
And if ZFS was so much better than Linux ext3 we would be all using Solaris, right? ;-)

The market doesn’t work like that.
In the "good old days" men could experiment with flirting and mess it up first few times before figuring the game. In the rare incident where a woman got really upset, her blast radius was limited to her friends and family. Today the blast radius is the entire internet and everything is recorded on a public board for tens of years. This much risk can be justified only in exceptional cases and casual chat isn't such case. Eventually the society will figure out how to cook internet social networks, but this woke generation will be lost.
Yeah and with the data they gather, they might be able to work out geographically appropriate versions.
Eg add a smaller AIO water cooler to a hot climate area version, or some other hardening.
Maybe it makes sense to apply to all versions? Can't know until you have some data.
Sounds like a great and sensible beta program to me. Avoids premature optimisation, lets you see what actually goes wrong (where, and in what conditions) without a massive effort up front.
No offense but this feels like nu-reddit but not fully realized yet.

-Javascript ridden mess to display text. Loading spinners left right and center. I bet you can display text in rows without executing more than 2 megabytes of javascript.

-Dark patterns like infinite scrolling

-Chat style discussions are a fertile ground for low quality messages

I'm jaded enough not to expect better by now but I think these are still worth mentioning if you are comparing yourself against nu-reddit.
It's hard to get good info on what capabilities it does have. Here's what I've gathered though I'd like to learn more:

Modems are often isolated by being connected via USB, or if on your SoC the modem has DMA then it's isolated via IOMMU groups.

SIM cards have to implement the E911 feature which allows 911 operators to toggle a cell phone into "stay online no matter what" mode.

Some SIM cards have additional apps installed on them, which allows attacks like SIMjacker and WIBattack.
I don’t buy this explanation. There are enough publicly funded healthcare systems in the world for it to make economic sense for one of them to run a large scale trial. I don’t see an agency problem arising for such an existential threat as COVID-19. Do you see an issue with my argument?
Same here. I've had one for around the same time and it's my favorite chair. I can sit in all day with no discomfort.
Why do webmasters and web developers neglect the title element?

To mitigate link rot I share URLs along with the title and a snippet from the page. A good title can act as an effective search key to find the page at its new URL even if the domain has changed.

Unfortunately, a lot of web pages have useless titles. Often sites use the same title on every page even when pages have subjects that are obvious choices for inclusion in the title (make, model & part # or article title that appears in the body element but not in the title). With the rise of social media, lots of pages now have OpenGraph metadata (e.g. og:title) set but don’t propagate that to the regular page title.

Page titles are used by search engines and by browsers to set window, tab, and bookmark titles.

Again, why do webmasters and web developers neglect the title element?
its not exactly a 0day if the ISP is communicating (through an intermediary) to a card the ISP gave you, that's just normal, unexpensive

And this is like, literally a state actor installing an app in this case?
You can probably dig up a few stories, but for a long time it was classified, it first got declassified in 1990.
Ahh apologies. It's not the wording of your paragraph, I understood both very well, they are well written.

It's a more fundamental understanding of stuff that's hard by those who are most at risk. The old, the vulnerable etc.

It's the old digital divide idea. My neighbor doesn't have any internet connected devices, for example. But she would benefit much more from the app than 40 of her mask wearing, young, self isolating, working from home fellow city inhabitants.
Safe or suspicious? Bioimpedance as a method of early diagnosis of melanoma
> Anyone here with more knowledge able to shed light on this?

I don't think anyone can answer this question. It's not completely clear whether all highly processed foods are bad or what makes them bad.

However, I suspect that most vegans (as opposed to vegetarians) are not primarily choosing this diet for health reasons, and many health experts still consider eggs to be bad because they are high in cholesterol, so this may not necessarily be a huge issue.
I love fresh broccoli, but as a Canuck, the closest I can get in the winter is often shipped from Mexico, or further away.

While not a different variety like the apples you mention, the result is the same. Dull, flavourless, unpalatable. So much so that I seem to eat much more broccoli in the summer, especially when locally grown, and bought day of pick.

Recently, I realised that fat accumulated also stores vitamins, etc, which is why animal fat is so nutritious. For example, people with an excess intake of some vitamins, can have issues getting those levels down, if it has been going on long enough to accumulate in their fat stores.

My point here is, I have found myself, yearly, gaining some weight at the end of summer, early fall. Not a lot, 10 lbs isn't much when 6'2". But it is interesting to me, for I do love the taste of summer's bounty, and that includes fresh, local apples.

The taste I think is not just the texture, flavour, but also the body detecting the enhanced nutritional content.

The body knows 'this is good', and thus I think wants to store excess nutrition in fat to see through the winter.

Anyhow, yes... love those local, freshly picked apples.
Bootloader unlockable is sufficient to replace the OS. Rooting is likely to die in the near future now that Google hired the Magisk dev.
LineageOS without Google Play services (and if you want with microG) would not install anything from Google automaticly.

Other comments mention embedded Java in SIM cards, that's possible, but I'm not sure.
Basically it's the transition in field strength, not the field, which flips a bit. So you need a moving magnetic field, and you need to cause a lot of changes because HDDs have all sorts of error correction.
Isn't contact tracing actually more useful when the number of cases are reasonably low?
There’s a lot to be said for asking everyone to wear a mask so it’s the default behavior. Otherwise a stigma could be attached to mask wearing that would keep people from wearing them when it matters most.
The Clean Power of Starch
Just because protocol is theoretically safe does not imply it is safe in actual practice or that it is not possible to exploit it.
I always wondered how and why there were so many Pixel Dungeon clones, and I only just now learned via this article that it's because the original was open-sourced.
Wasn't sure what to make of "critical outsourcing" (hiring too many programmers from Romania? I'm probably missing a second meaning of outsourcing) but the page doesn't properly load for me (in Germany). I can read it in HTML source though, so in case anyone else wonders the same:

It's about the same thing, German teens sent to some labour camp in Romania.

Get a dashcam.

I wonder how soon a car would be able to publish its metrics, like speed, motor rpm, data from ABS and brakes, etc via a protected Bluetooth channel, so that a dashcam or a phone could keep recording it, like the black box.
Would it not be possible to send everyone currently in the state an SMS? I personally would be okay with the government having access to this type of PSA.
I didn't want to imply you didn't understand it; I was trying to come up with a more accessible explanation that might help others do so and help drive adoption.

You're right that it's not easy to explain, but surely we can come up with something that gets the idea across? :)
The problem is, its usually cheaper the more things you can shove into the 1 hardware item, so you have your cellular hardware in the same chip as your CPU and GPU. Not much a ROM can do about this unless the chip itself supports disabling direct memory across the two items, + does it correctly, + doesn't allow it to be reversed from the other side, + you would also need the datasheet to find out how to implement this.

Generally why privacy roms don't support more than 1 or 2 brands total, I guess.

There are also platforms with strict division between the seperate parts of hardware, la pinephone and the librem5

I'm curious to watch dating and flirting evolve in a world of entire generations knowing nothing but Instagram, TikTok, Tinder and Snapchat, not to mention a year-long pandemic and the rise of school/work-from-home, shopping moving online, libraries moving online and so on.

We have already seen online dating lead to over 50% of couple formations as of today, I can only imagine that those numbers will get larger with each year. Will stumbling upon someone for the first time in real life soon be a remnant of the past?

I agree with the commenters that there's no way to suppress the human drive to mate, but what mating looks like in the next couple of decades is anybody's guess. Sounds like a great time to be alive for anthropologists.
To those accusing Siemens Of not properly appreciating hackaday (which I loved in the past as well) consider this from Siemens point of view:

They are spending $700M on a digital parts intelligence company. This is 10x revenue, so there is serious growth or other significant opportunities that justify that multiple.

A hacker/maker news site and forums that the company also happens to own that generates, maybe, a few million? Which certainly doesn’t have a growth rate justifying a 10x valuation? These are minor aspects of the deal and frankly just not a high priority to the M&A team trying to plan and execute the integration of a $700M acquisition.

Should the corporate communications team or PR agency advising them have done a better job on this interview? Sure. But Seimens is focusing on exactly what they should be focusing on and that simply is not a niche hacker/maker community website.
The complaint isn't about the semantics, but about it furthering an image of the Rust community that's working against it when it comes to actually fixing this. Being "right" is less effective if you are being insufferable about it.

It has hit 122 deg in the shade in California both of the past two summers (not yet this year). That's in the shade. Put equipment on a dark roof in full sunshine and your dish becomes a solar cooker. Maybe they could sell it that way, and claim autonomous switching between two useful modes.

A plane more often has access to an atmospheric cloud than to a computing cloud, especially when flying over an ocean. Maybe Starlink could offer reasonable connectivity, even if intermittent.
There are only two social orders we know of today: capitalism and marxism. Only marxist regimes are known for the perverse desire to control private lives of people. It's why I think this sort of distortions in the US come from a small group of ideological marxists.
Makes sense. JPM and GS are both ruthless anyway, and if you work there you're probably someone who values a high salary more than the average engineer.

In this case it requires the presence of Google Play Services. I'm unsure if there's any evidence that they can install apps without it being present.
From what I've read (I don't live in Massachusetts), the app is installed via the auto update channel, but it explicitly asks permission to activate.

If you think this is bad, the commercial apps that have been auto-installing for years, without notifying the user, should have you throwing a conniption.
I don't really doubt that mediocre men often fail up - I've witnessed it myself. But this isn't a great title, the conclusion that mediocre men fail up is from the qualitative part of the survey in other words - women believe mediocre men fail up. Which then highlights the obvious point, maybe mediocre poeple fail up, and you only notice it because men are much more likely to go "up" at all. I've certainly also witnessed mediocre performing women in senior positions, but since there are such a tiny number of women in my field, I would be much less willing to draw that conclusion.
I absolutely hate that if I open control panel, I can only focus on a single thing instead of having multiple windows open. My 64-core PC is not a smartphone, thank you very much!
I think covid has shown that when the world is faced with a pandemic, not everyone agrees on what's common sense is in terms of how to respond as a society/government.

> So there’s nothing stopping someone from jamming your equipment

Nearly a decade at a small/medium ISP in Brazil (where illegal competitiveness isn't uncommon) and I've never seen this happening to us (or if it did, we never found out).

This is because jamming the spectrum requires a very powerful antenna that will _also_ interfere with every other antenna in the region, including probably their own. Instead of that, it's way easier to just grab some scissors and cut off your competitor's wires (which has in fact happened to us on numerous occasions).

So while there are anticompetitive practices I don't think this is one you'd ever have to worry about.

Last one was two years ago. I was told that it was a hardware issue. Same SSD is still going strong with ext4 now.
No, the Ford's innovation is division of labor while producing a complex thing, a car. Instead of a team working on various operations, Ford's system introduced workers who each did a very simple operation, without having to change or readjust. The need for coordination between workers was largely removed, replaced by the conveyor, seriously improving production speed.
A privacy nightmare, realized.
I suspect what happened is that the position and velocity estimates from the VIO system (cameras) were wrong (and perhaps wildly jumping) and since position and velocity errors are inputs to the attitude controller, the tilt oscillated as well. It's not that the IMU did a poor job estimating attitude (tilt), but rather that the attitude controller was asked to tilt in erratic directions to compensate for the erratic and incorrect position and velocity readings.

It's quite hard to detect when position and velocities are "obviously incorrect", especially when they come from VIO, where the optimization result can jump around in non ideal conditions, so I'm not surprised there was not a more graceful anomaly detection.

"Queer liberation" is perhaps one of the best examples of how many activists are choosing to focus on what's 'strange' and 'peculiar' socially (hence, 'queer') over what's mainstream. Why should we care to emphasize the queer so much when that means making what common and thus not queer socially marginalized?
It honestly baffles me that there are Android enthusiasts. My phone runs Android but it's not a good operating system.
You may think this is a smart example, but you're mostly illustrating that you know nothing about aviation engineering.

The temperature limit for takeoff performance has nothing to do with the maximum temperature for electronics or other components. It's about air density decreasing which reduces the engine thrust as well as the maximum lift from the wings. So the warmer it gets the lower the maximum weight you can take off with and the higher the speed required before lift-off. At some point that's not safe anymore so the manufacturers only publish verified performance data up to a maximum temperature. You can't legally fly above that.

I think it says to criticize in private and laud in public. We are all emotional beings, so I think it's good advice.
Honestly, I don’t know. I have some general ideas from my own experience but I also know better than to be confident they’d stand up to reality. Especially since I’ve dodged the issue by deliberately not having children. I’m not sure there’s a one-size-fits-all solution; I think so much depends on the specific circumstances of the child’s family, peers, and personality, and specific events in the child’s life. I, for instance, really needed my dad to take responsibility for his terrifying behavior, to see the harm it caused me; I needed friends who didn’t bully me; I needed support for coping with scary transitions, like starting middle school; and I needed someone to teach me about life. The drugs were just a symptom. So I don’t know what an effective intervention looks like for that.

It is true that, no matter what state of the world we observed, we would try to come up with the best explanations we could, but if we use that as a reason to dismiss explanations of the actual state of affairs, we would dismiss any explanation of anything.

Sure. Reality is complex. It should be no surprise that many disciplines have relevant contributions to explaining it. The fact that economic and cultural considerations are also relevant to history, is no reason to dismiss geographical considerations.

I think some of he "consent" norms we are building up are a double edged sword.

Ooh, its good to reinforce the idea that users need freedom.

OTOH, "consent" isn't really an informed consent. It's pages of TCs, UI antipatterns and take-it-or-leave-it choices. In practice, I don't think consent is genuinely increasing user sovereignty. It's more about disclosure than consent, currently. Human centIpad stuff.
