Really, they're going to ask passengers and airlines to publish and follow up to find out if this is gonna be an issue on their particular flight?

Passsengers should also be sure to look up all the latest airworthiness directives and advisory circulars for the plane and engine type they're going to fly as well. And get the crew medical reports just to be sure.

Hell, maybe passengers should just as well check that the aircraft manufacturers haven't modified any critical safety systems that the FAA should've been regulating.
Wonderful way of wasting our precious resources on more e-waste.

Nice touch to recommend dumping it in household waste instead of offering a recycling option.

Is it really that hard to drip a few drops on a standard antigen card and read the stripes 15m later?
I’m not really Indian myself (didn’t grow up in the culture/my mother’s tribe) so I don’t think it’s my place to say whether it’s a good idea to include it in modern American Indian cuisine.

I will say that other oppressed groups have successfully integrated foods that came out of hardship into their cuisines - think matzah and components of Soul Food.

While your statement is true, this does not diminish the importance of radar altimeters: the barometer is not specific to the landing site terrain like radar is, but rather related to distance above sea level. In low visibility, radar is the only way to tell how close to touchdown you are.
The 5G cells in question aren’t for the people on airplanes, they’re providing service in the area of the airport.
Would you be equally happy if you were sick enough to be hospitalized as you are when you're healthy? If not, that's a cost. I doubt the out-of-pocket medical costs are the most important part of this decision.
Why is this only a problem in the U.S. if 5G is already active in China and many European countries. Obviously airplanes aren't falling out of the sky in those places. Seems like much ado about nothing. If anything this appears to be a FAA/FCC-induced problem where aircraft are being blocked from flying from over-zealous regulation.
I think attorneys who specialize in this know better than you?

Sorry for the delay in response as well, you kept changing this comment to try to sway the narrative a certain way, so I had to wait until you finished your edits to make sure my reply would make sense.

> Vulcan-like lack of emotional investment

Using a weird pop culture cliché probably hinders you here ?

I would say what needs to be trained is instead emotional investment (this is probably redundant : no investment without at least former emotions ?) into trying to figure out the/a truth. For instance being bothered when some propositions seem to conflict each other.

And at least a bare minimum of investment into your beliefs is kind of required (though I guess that this is already what differentiates them from opinions ?), other way lies insanity.

> Even if you did, nobody in their right mind would publish results that show minorities in a bad light

political correctness gone mad this is. Just because a group is a minority doesn't make them immune from being critisized if there indeed behaviours that aren't acceptable from them.

This is basically racism - just the other angle - where you're afraid of critisizing a race.

99.99% is close enough for me in terms of a sterilizing immunity.

I think the article nails it very clearly we have made vaccines that are for all effective purposes sterilizing. Some people might argue over the world choice but our COVID vaccines are not in the same league as these.
GPS surely is not used for instrument landings, and especially not for altitude.

Isn’t that pretty much the same as the dot-product explanation?
I guess I've never seen anyone put anything on fry bread except maybe sugar.
This isn't really true. Before landing an aircraft gets the pressure altitude of the airport and sets their altimeters with that as a reference before landing. It's a very common procedure. These are updated regularly.
It's worth noting that their backend (VM and parser) currently uses MRuby, which is written in C, so not yet quite a "real" implementation in my view.
Funny, just a couple weeks ago a friend recommended Gore Vidal's historical novel Creation, where the author is a grandson of Zoroaster. He manages to meet Socrates, the Buddha, and Confucius, which was actually possible at a certain point.

(I don't like Vidal's writing, which I find to be mostly attitude, but YMMV.)
Better title "US airlines warn government ineptness in slow approval of regulations could cause 'catastrophic disruption'". This is a regulatory failure not a technological one.
AFAIK it's not the power level, but 5G in the US has a sightly higher spectrum range that's closer to that of the radio altimeters. Finland apparently even uses power levels that are do high that they'd be illegal in the US without any problems.

Assuming everyone should make medical decisions based purely on individual or even shared monetary grounds is a type of "flat earth" thinking of it's own.

It attempts to fit a pre-conceived view onto the world, that "no-vaxers" must be dumb the same way "flat-earthers" are and this helps you rationalize away digital content you personally disagree with without having to engage with it.
> I'm not even sure radio altimeters are even used on many aircraft anymore.

It's much more complicated then that. TSMC relies on a company called ASML which itself relies on a company called Carl Ziess.

ASML makes the EUV etchers, and carl ziess makes the optical components needed to focus the light... both companies hold exclusive technological monopolies on their respective products.

In addition to this, Samsung and Intel are not that far behind the technology curve for making these chips... with Intel quickly shifting to include the capability of being a global foundry for making chips outside of their own designs.

Historically the landscape in the chip industry changes very quickly. I'm sure your analogy fits some technology in the world, but semiconductors is not it.
That's fair, it does sound like a novice take; but it's still "business as usual" w/r/t what is touted as best practices where it comes to version control. At least that's my slightly above novice take on the matter.
That's unfortunate about your channel - I really do wish the former staff didn't stage a hostile take over and begin their attack on freenode. It's really unfortunate, and I'm sorry for that.

As for your comment on Handshake, you sound a lot like the opponents we used to face in the early days of crypto and the cypherpunk movement. That means we're getting somewhere! :-)
I don’t remember ever saying that about 3g haha.
Thank you, this is very helpful. I am more optimistic about the usefulness of RISC-V than before reading this.
If there is a civil war in the US (will the media call it Civil War II or Civil War 2?), absence of the cloud will be the least of our problems.
I left Microsoft Research and started a PhD at age 38. I have had a lot of fun and gone a completely different direction than if I had stayed. Certainly I'll never recover those earning years. From an economic perspective it is a ludicrous thing to do. You may recover the direct costs, but the opportunity cost are just gone. But if you need to be on a different path there are worse ways to do it
I imagine orbits are a thing seen not as deliberate as say, flying a U-2 plane over other airspace. Terrestial jurisdiction would be a very trying thing to enforce for space vehicles
Well, I don't live in the US, so I'm well insulated from any disruption that would happen on the ground, but I'm a software engineer, so naturally my income is tied to tech much of which domestically and internationally relies on cloud providers being operational. What I'm worried about is the potential for global contagion.

I can't help but think that despite all the redundancy and resilience built into the cloud through multiple AZs and globally distributed regional datacenters it was all architected on the assumption that it would be physically safe and that there lurks a failure mode somewhere where a particular SPOF exists that renders the rest of all that redundancy useless.

For those unfamiliar, it's an alternative to pcr. pcr requires alternating heating cooling cycles, whereas lamp can induce sample replication with just heating.

The main device almost certainly uses fluorescence detection to quantify sample counts.
NJ, high school in the 00's. When we had physics class, the schedule was set up so that once every few days, instead of going to gym class we'd have a double-length physics class for doing experiments. And this was for the normal physics class, not just AP physics. I don't know if they've expanded that lab day to cover other science classes. I think it would have been useful to have that extra time for the year that we did chemistry.

Also have felt the same about those "things they don't teach you" posts. I may have done terribly in history because I suck with remembering names and dates, but I still can say for sure that we were not given a version of US history that made it all look perfect.
The other poster roundly dispatched your comment about using a “crypto credit card” so I’ll defer commentary on that.

On the others: the crux of my argument was adoption and usage, with the implication that cryptocurrency was better for the usecase than traditional methods. Of course you can shoehorn a blockchain or “the chain” into any usecase, just like I can use C to write a frontend service, but it doesn’t make sense because C isn’t the best or even a good tool for the job. I can buy bananas and put them on the blockchain, doesn’t mean there is any reason to do so aside from pumping up any cryptocurrency holdings I might have, perhaps BananaCoin or BananaICO or Gorilla NFTs, which I just invented right now.

In the end your pithy comments aren’t going to convince me to start shoehorning blockchain into my day to day transactions — as much as I might long for a decentralized currency — and my fact-based analyses aren’t going to convince someone who has a financial or psychological interest in bitcoins or cryptocurrency or NFTs to abandon them. I suggest we just agree to disagree.
Probably the same. From what I can tell, "technically precocious boy" means the same thing as "technically precocious".

It's a no-win situation for the researchers.

Not other ways. One other way. Just one. Garbage collection.
Used a 4G modem for a year because I couldn’t get broadband at that address, speeds were patchy, ping was >100ms, “buffer bloat” was a nightmare, was CGNAT’ed, you couldn’t rely on keeping a tcp connection open for ages without having to reconnect (the buffer bloat and tcp issues _may_ have been my modem though.

Was it ok? Sure, you can stream video just fine (my mobile isp didn’t force 480p video). But for anything behind basic browsing and consuming content it was a pain for example playing multiplayer games.

I was very happy when I moved back to a fixed line connection. So yeah, I would have been very happy with more bandwidth, lower ping and a more stable connection.
If you're already in an R&D position, what kind of research do you think you can do in a PhD setting that you can't do now?

A whole lot of comp sci research doesn't need a lot of resources, so you can do that anywhere, it's just a question of time.

Some research needs lots of computer time and/or lots of real world data. You likely have access to more advanced computers/more computer time at a FAANG, at least in theory (getting to use it is something else) as well as real world data.

What does a credential do for you here that FAANG on your resume doesn't?

Don't kid yourself; the American boarding schools for the Native Americans weren't much better than the Canadian ones, were they any better to begin with. In general, I'd be hard-pressed to declare Canada any better or worse in its treatment of indigenous peoples than the US was--they were both pretty appalling.

The FAA doesn't cite that concern on their page, but having a 200MHz buffer in the US rather than a 380MHz buffer is a difference.

As noted in the article you posted, Canada is requiring antenna down-tilting nationwide as well as exclusion zones around airports.

EDIT: "an exclusion band is allowed ±10% around the band, within which the HIRF levels are very low—for radar altimeters, this spans 3.78–4.84 GHz"

https://www.rtca.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Slides-5G-In...

So, in Europe, their C-Band ends at 3.8GHz and barely enters the range. In the US where we're going to 3.98GHz, we're well into that range.

It looks like Korea's band ends at 3.7GHz which is outside the range (and definitely by 3.8GHz which is where band N78 ends; the US is using Band N77 which ends at 4.2GHz, but we've only licensed spectrum to 3.98GHz)

TSMC made the long term investments in R&D and expertise and are reaping it's rewards.

Just like the short scene spoken by the Bene Gesserit in the 2021 film:

I'm not even that old and I completely agree with your point. One would think that easy access to beginner friendly programming languages and environments would be a boon to technically precious children. However I think for most kids, highly addictive and cheap video games and social media end up monopolizing all the time and attention. It's really sad to see all that neuroplastic potential being wasted on TikTok. Personally, I came up around the dawn of Facebook and was only (partially) saved by being too poor to afford many video games or an expensive computer, and being too much of a loner to care about Facebook.
It happens the same way over and over. Some site will offer discoverability, so writers flock to it, and then the site gradually becomes terrible.

The answer is to own your own stuff. Your own domain, your own blog software, etc. Just develop that. Otherwise you're putting effort into something that isn't you, that's inevitably going to go bad.
No but I have said “I’d like LTE to not be horribly congested and unusable” when in high-demand.

Aren't the big GPT models really good at knowing what comes next? Could they be used to instead score what the most likely next sentence is given a list of 99 choices?

While not official, the US has stake in the game. They have actively prevented ASML euv machines from being distributed into China. A move against Taiwan is a big move against US interests so China and the US are at a stalemate.

Should China attack Taiwan it will be at a time when the semiconductor industry is the least of our concerns and the US is in a significantly lower position than China.

Right now it's just cold war era threats with both sides being paranoid of the other and both sides also being too afraid to act.

> there came a point where it didn't matter I meant it ironically, I was just the guy that said "Spiffy!"

About 10 years ago I was in a clothes shop in London looking at jeans. There were a couple of younger guys, early 20s maybe, looking as well. One of them held up some bright pink jeans and asked his friend "do you think I could get away with wearing these ironically?"

What flashed through my head was "You'll still be the guy wearing pink jeans. If you like pink jeans, buy the pink jeans, wear them and be happy...". Irony is not visible to observers!
Yup, I definitely agree. I haven't implemented smart tie-breaking logic yet.
Every home internet connection will be by 'mobile' internet, that's my prediction.

When a friend moved to London for six months, a 4G modem & router was the cheapest option, (not least because rolling 1month SIM plans are common here, but ISPs like twelve months, and charge exit fees or a premium for a shorter plan), faster than the cheapest ISP plans, and delivered next day vs. two weeks' wait for an 'engineer' to visit and mess about with 'master sockets' and 'lines'.
Corn/potatoes are an ingredient, they make a relatively bland restaurant dish with just what native flavoring you could add. We're now also expanding to the even larger definition of "Native American" to refer to groups of people's over 2 continents e.g. modern potatoes were the ones from Chile directly not the descendents that spread north naturally. Corn was a lot more like the corn of today but again as an ingredient not a dish (think of the number of corn dishes that start with butter for example).
I don't think that justifies the 90% reduction in overall range from 4g, but ymmv.

I'm not sure that was what the OP was talking about - I think the question was "If you already have good 4g, would you benefit?" - aka isn't good 4g good enough?

Just out of curiosity I tested my 4g speeds/ping - I got 30mbps and an average of 35ms (6.4ms jitter) here in the Netherlands (KPN network). Given by test results I certainly think you could have had a better network.
