Nice article - is the idea to communicate with the tags with their stock firmware using another CC25x series chip or dev board?

Unfortunately, that might be tricky without the private keys in the controller. User manual [0] describes a per site 128 bit AES keys used for the RF comms.

Might be easier to just write fresh firmware for them - there's some code here [1] for driving the display that could be ported to the CC2510. There's SDCC support for at least the CC2511 as used in the Pololu Wixel [2]. It's certainly possible that their cryptosystem is broken but I wouldn't bet on it.

- Incorporate. In theory, if still an issue, get a bit of liability insurance and whatever else to boost your internal + external reliability ratings...

- A LOT of companies have hiring freezes & budget cutting they don't want to announce -- even if they are publicizing open roles -- so new expenditures only happen in very special areas. And indeed, UK is indeed particularly bad right now: Brexit + the war. OTOH, freelancing can be your in to other teams who can't otherwise get headcount, so some finesse may work too.
This is what most people miss. Yes the FAA is slow, certification is costly, and liability messed things up in the 80s -- but you can't get the huge cost reductions we see in the automotive sector without mass-production. Aircraft are essentially hand-made in a labor intensive processes, using individually crafted components.

It's not hard to see what certification costs, take an EAB kit, use all non-certified avionics, and even take an automotive engine and convert it for aircraft use if you want. If you spec that out equivalently* to a certified aircraft, taking labor costs into account (you don't get to count the 1500 hours in your garage as free), it's less than comparable certified aircraft, but not orders of magnitude less.

(By equivalent, I mean safety and redundancy -- ifr capable. Not talking about making my own AP with cheap servos and a raspberrypi and navigating with a handheld gps)

From my brief reading on dyadic regression your first sentence is why dyadic regressions are used in the circumstances of the paper. I don’t know the validity of the paper but I do strongly suspect Sabine doesn’t either and that her Tweet says more about her ignorance of the topic than it does about the validity of the paper.
Tried to do the face scanning for ID.me. Try as I may, it never would work. I tried so many different backgrounds, dark, light, pattern. Indoors, outdoors, sunlight, artificial light, 2 different phones. It finally refused and told me to contact them. I just gave up and moved on.
>>That's because you (presumably not a Catholic or, like most, a poorly catechized one) are projecting your values and view points onto a faith you don't understand.

I'm atheist. Was born one, will die one, so you are correct.

>>Classic cultural colonialism if you ask me.

What makes you draw that conclusion? I'm an immigrant, have been exposed to everything from Islam to Catholicism to Southern Baptist, Hinduism, Buddhism, various other sects. I'd rather look inward, if I were, you, as colonialism in the name of Catholicism is why so many native cultures and religions have been erased from history and existence.

>>There's literally two millennia (well 5 if you include the Old Testament and commentary) literature on the Church's position on matter, the body, corpses, life, death, afterlife, etc. necessary to understand this.

>>Have you read a significant amount (any!) of this to reach your conclusion?

I've read enough to know it's all BS. My close friend and cousin, someone who is a brother to me, spent years at the Vatican's liturgical schools. A+++ student. They wanted to make him a priest and he politely declined. He is an atheist thanks to that education.

Thanks but no thanks.

Cracking the Code to Global Success
The whole bit about gas stoves I have no doubt is a pretty typical astroturf campaign from the fossil fuel industry. They have shamelessly made up pro-gas nonprofits using fake personas, paid social media influencers to promote gas stovetops, and are likely behind the current "gubmit wants to take away your gas stove" trend that's drumming up online drama.

One doesn't even need to look at climate impact to say gas stoves are bad, but focus the narrative on that one aspect and you can get climate deniers hyperventilating and defending their gas stovetop with statements like "you'll pry my gas stove from my dead hands". But really, economics are going to kill them all the same - induction stoves are dramatically more energy efficient, have the same benefits of fast thermal response, and don't pose a gigantic risk to life and limb every time you turn them on (or leave them off, for that matter).
It still somehow breaks my intuition that it’s cost-effective to have thousands of these deployed in each supermarket. I mean, I do understand it rationally, but it’s still weird.
Yeah, probably something along the lines of normal console update times (4-5 years).

I cannot imagine this in anyway. Heat pumps work like ACs do. They do compress a medium till it heats up, and then spread that heat around. And then they decompress until it cools down and dump that cold until outside heat brings up the temperature again.

Those compressions and decompressions take up immense amounts of energy. They are less efficient than simply burning gas. On the flip side, could we not create electricity generation and heating from Natural gas?

It's interesting; with many sites I'd agree with you, but on Reddit, I don't look at usernames much. I recognize a few usernames in most of the subreddits I visit, just from repeated exposure, but I don't value my own accounts or the karma they accumulate. I use different accounts for different subsets of subreddits the way I wear different clothes for different occasions. If I lost an account I'd sign up for a new one like buying a new outfit. I wonder why it's different.
I don't understand why this is contentious. You're burning gas inside your house.

Leadership on a Submarine
Depends on if they keep growing or if this was a peak and more layoffs continue to happen over the coming months/years. The current big bump followed by a not-as-big-cut is mostly from overhiring during the pandemic plus the weird economy. I think a big part of it is to push down wages. Collusion without explicit collaboration.

However, it could be an initial reaction (right or wrong) to chatGPT and copilot and such. The start (or continuation) of the automation of knowledge work. Nobody has a crystal ball, so we'll see where it goes!

I'm thinking the coming two+ decades of AI transformation will make the Web/Internet transition look quaint in terms of societal impact. But I'm just a 52 year old geek that has been following technology for 40+ years ;)
Furthermore, as the author of the Sonatype piece told me last fall, it also goes beyond the upstream project and any distributor. In the case of a lot of vulnerabilities, the fixes have existed in the upstream for maybe a year or more. But they're still in downstream code that has never been updated.
Let's say it's a fully featured MVP.
Zoning laws are too strict. Buy a home and convert it to a grocery store? No can do, in many places.
Can you say a little more about the geometry kernel? Is it NURBS-based, triangles, f-reps, etc?

IIRC, OpenSCAD uses CGAL and is all triangles under the hood; other tools use OpenCascade for NURBS modeling, or weirder DIY kernels.
No, I meant the cheapest new car vs the new car they can reasonably finance. The cheapest new car is generally cheaper than a nice used car and it’s got a vastly lower cost of ownership.

Holding off on a X$/month car payment on a 50k car can very quickly turn into a new 18k car. Continuing to put away that same car payment and you’re able to buy a 50k car out of pocket quite soon. Essentially financing doesn’t make expensive cars more affordable it simply allows people to buy them sooner.
Kraken is a cult pretending to be a company. The ATF should be giving them as much scrutiny as the SEC.

I had an interview with them not too long ago without knowing much about them other than that they were a crypto exchange. An absolutely insane experience.
Very cool! What modeling kernel does it use?

Out of curiosity - are you a mechanical engineer? I'd be curious to know what your history is with different CAD programs, and what effect that had on the design/use decisions you made with DSLCAD.
> We've had a social system of personal ethics and credibility up till now, but "platforms" create this many-to-many relationship between everyone, none of whom know anything about the other, really.

I agree with this, without maybe being able to put it in words my self.
Reputation and credibility will be the two things at odds when one can just change platform/network/"area of the internet" if they don't get what they want from those around them.
I’ve made good use of PugiXML: https://pugixml.org/. Faster than most SAX parsers with the simpler interface of DOM. Gets around the small allocation problem by making a mutable copy of the entire input, then modifying it in place, and only allocating (using arenas) when absolutely necessary. C++ though so not very easy to use from other languages like libxml2 is.

That's not a fundamental feature of open source, or a fundamental restriction of free software. E.g the GPL is approved by OSI, and the MIT license is approved by the FSF.

The distinction is really much more about philosophical objectives and marketing than it is about anything material.
no please haha be kind and helpful.
Most people support patents because they have this romanticized notion of some little guy in his garage inventing the next light bulb. That’s not representative of the mass offensive and defensive patterns of use by modern corporations.

We should just end patents, period.
I am a happy user of a DYI air source heat pump, that I've been using for 8+ years, mostly for heating in a residential building.

First, it must be told that an off the shelf AC unit is technically speaking also a heat pump. There has been this distinction (and confusion) between AC units and (mostly) ground source heat pumps because, you know the latter actually have a water 'pump' to circulate fluid in the ground piping. Ground source heat pumps are far more expensive that AC units and are nearly impossible to retrofit in existing buildings. Hence, companies came up with a 'middle ground' solution, called air source heat pumps. In these devices the outdoor unit is much like an outdoor unit of a split type AC, but the indoor unit is basically a refrigerant/water heat exchanger with a water pump and some sensors around it. There is also a monoblock type of air source heat pump, where all components are in the outer block and you only connect the piping.

IMHO, the reason air source heat pumps are becoming popular now is because their price went down considerably during the last 5 years, whereas the price of fossil fuel heat sources has gone up. Back then when I had to choose between a gas boiler and a heat pump, the boiler was around EUR 2, off the shelf heat pump (24000 btu) was around EUR 7k and for the DIY option I paid a total of EUR 2.3k. The reason for this was that the market for air source heat pumps was underdeveloped and companies (e.g. Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu) were charging a lot more in this market segment (rich people with new houses). At some point in time, people started realizing the benefits of a heat pump over a normal AC (less units, no noise, nor air currents, better efficiency, can produce hot water, heating is decoupled from the source and more sources, such as solar can be seamlessly plugged in). Manufacturers albeit slowly responded to this demand.

Now with solar power gaining more traction, they are becoming a very obvious choice.
Ah yes. Sci fi movies that have to show flashy special effects that would never work this way in real life: from headache-inducing colors and animation to having to hold your hands up fir an extended period of time to do the simplest things to see-through interfaces.

>> Writing code that other people understand is an independent skill

> It's also the main skill of a developer. Code is for people.

If there are any people reading this starting out in their career, i can't stress how important this is. Being able to write beautiful code and being able to explain it to your peers and see them take off with it and do amazing things is the single most important skill as a software engineer IMO. I would put it above any algorithm riddle, esoteric language feature, tool expertise, or anything else.
yeah, exactly. there's a company called MRCOOL that does something similar (https://mrcool.com/diy-4th-generation/), but the head (the indoor part that provides the heat/cooling) is designed to be mounted permanently

if this were popular you'd see old houses retrofitted with pluggable holes where you could feed the lineset through and seal as necessary for temporary heat/cooling, or perhaps even permanent.

the installation would be substantially easier if these were like 6000BTU instead of minimum 12000BTU per head, so it could be run on say, ~8 amps and be plugged inside.

>The general public does not understand agriculture well, and I've noticed that this misunderstanding is stronger among those that have huge huge concerns about seeds and GMOs.

This is Monsanto's most frequent talking point.

They're very emphatic that GMO foods designed to survive being doused in massive amounts of roundup are completely safe (true) before they are sprayed with massive amounts of the (carcinogenic*) roundup.

The "objectors are ignorant anti science types" with the subtle mislead renders it an extraordinarily effective talking point.

Start a consulting company. There's no law against having a one person company.
They are not "reportedly planning" this. The source of this story is "a rumor shared on Weibo." Let's keep our pitchforks ready for the time when Apple actually introduces this.
I wonder if there are larger implications to reverse-engineering this. When I worked in retail in high school, I was told repeatedly that if a price was marked on a shelf, then there are laws that require the store to sell that item for that marked price. (IANAL so I don't know the nuances there, but it makes sense). If it becomes easy to change these displays with a new price wirelessly, that could be a really nasty problem for any stores using these displays.

Hopefully for the store's sake, there'd be some sort of public/private key system so that only the holder of the private key can distribute price changes wirelessly. I wouldn't bet money on that though.

(edit) - I see someone else posted the manual and that there's a per-site AES key. That's a good sign I guess.
Great post as always Michael!

Did you move away from Raspberry now or what does the EE guys do?

I don’t have personal experience of outsourcing assembly yet but make sure quality control is flawless before letting that go. I would and will personally fly down to China to set that up.

All the best.
Has support for these gotten any better? Last time I was reading about it compiler support was under baked at best.

If they get it fully working and stable I agree modules should go a long way to getting rid of it (entirely if you are willing to wrap old header files in modules yourself).
It's illegal, but all of the components required to make it are free. I don't know what to tell you, it's like saying that PS2 emulation is actually $200 because everyone needs to buy their own PS2 to dump the firmware from. Hypothetically, you're right! Technically though...
haha yes !

Joke apart and like said on other answers, onboarding is rough but will improve it.

Once you are in, you can use all the features.
Well of course it is being pushed, though I would not necessarily call it coordinated.

Companies that sell heat pumps are advertising hard. It's an easy sell for them with rising gas prices.

The US government is "pushing them" by offering tax credits for heat pump systems. This is part of a plan to reduce pollution, improve energy independence/energy security, and save citizens money on their heating bills. No secret there - politicians and public servants are excited about this and they are talking about it. They are also offering tax credits for other high efficiency heating systems, but not that many people are looking at those tax credits because buying a new high efficiency gas furnace doesn't make that much sense when you could buy a more efficient heat pump instead.

Many individual people are also talking about them because they are a great way to help the environment and save money at the same time.

And I think a lot of people just think they are cool technology as well.

Those companies expected a major societal event to become the new normal without strong data to support it, and chased growth that was not going to be sustained.
That wasn't the point anyways. Bad things happen a lot regardless of if the tools are available. The point is that you should be able to stop it with equal capability, not be intentionally handicapped.
Like other commenters said, a GSHP will work excellently in terms of keeping you comfortable at a low ongoing price, but your initial costs will far exceed a $10k budget and you will likely never make that investment back ;-)
How is signing away your "voiceprint" to be used for automatic speech generation any different than people recording lines for national transport systems, for example? They spend a couple of weeks in a recording booth, recording every number "one/two/three..." and every placename on the map, as well as dozens of announcements.

you may have never heard of Emma Clarke, but if you live in the UK you've heard her voice a thousand times: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Clarke

Imagine if instead of having to record every number, placename, announcement, she could just read a short script, and then every possible message could be autogenerated from that. the end result would be the same for her, but much less work.

Now think about models who do photoshoots. They get paid for individual photoshoots, just like Emma got paid for providing her voice for that one particular customer (the TFL). But if you can't afford custom model photos for your website/brochure, you can go to a stock image bank and just find some decent photos.

You may not have heard of András István Arató but I'm sure you know his face:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hide_the_Pain_Harold

Extend these two concepts to voiceover, and you arrive at the fact that "voiceprint stock libraries" are a guaranteed eventuality. Emma and Andras were both willing to sell their voice and image to someone. In Andras' case, he doesn't even know who the end-user is. Instead of just choosing from a set of Andras stock photographs, you might also purchase a license to his voice, and use it to overdub your advertisement. - because someone, maybe not you, but someone, will be happy to take a few grand and let people use their voice, just like people sell their photos to stock libraries.

By the time the XML specification was standardized from the more general SGML, I don't think there was any idea of using it only as a markup language. The XML specification lists support for a wide variety of applications as one of the design goals. Even schema validation, which long preceded XML, is something more commonly used for data not text. By this point XML is so rarely used as a markup language (by comparison with its usage as a data format) that the "Markup Language" part of the title is almost a misnomer.
