5G operates using Ultra Wide Band technology. That is, you assign the device a set of frequencies, and it will monitor and attempt to communicate over all of those frequencies. So you can have 900mhz, 2.4ghz, and 28ghz assigned which pretty much covers you through all situations. This is why UHF, 2G, 3G and soon 4G bands are looking delicious to anyone who owns them (or is able to bid in the next auction).
5G is a buzzword, but it is the reality of our future. I can't see how we progress beyond 5G because of it's sheer technical feat (we shall see)
how did they figure out who this passenger was? timestamps on video correlated to the ticket scan at the TSA agent at the start of the security line? sounds like TSA can monitor every passenger that passes through any airport at any time.
This wasn't the 'stop trying to kill us button' this is like you are going up a hill and cruise control decides to slow down 1 mph per degree incline of the hill. so you keep pressing ACCL(+) until you are back to 65mph. except you suddenly come to a crest in the hill and you realize it too late and try to pull up on your ebrake but your ebrake doesn't disengage cruise control so you end up going down the hill at 100mph and careen off the side because you had no control
In reality there are a few faults here. A system designed to overcome aerodynamic flaws of larger engines is not a major failure scenario? But then again, Boeing offered options to provide detailed insight to these sensors that the customer opt'd out of. Who's at fault here?
Secondly, at what point does trim input negating MCAS (a) illicit a change in computing behavior and more importantly (b) illicit a change in human behavior? I read that and immediately what the fucked out loud because what pilot would trim up 21 times before disconnecting auto pilot and flying by hand while figuring out what is going on. This is showing the pilot is way to reliant on computers rather than hand flying the plane (something all American regulations enforce). Who's at fault here, Boeing or the country with lax pilot regulation?
I guess this marks my departure from Slashdot. This is a sign of what will become the world wide web for the rest of our future. We had a chance to make a difference and the same dichotomies of change that prevented TV from being a learning medium will prevent the internet from reaching it's true intent. Or in less savage terms, the golden era of the internet has already passed and like traveling before 9/11, no one will remember what it was like.
does this mean we haven't actually reached the goal of the internet? and that's for the someone to still reach their destination even in the aftermath of a nuclear explosion?
e.g. in this author's experiment, "the internet" (whatever the hell that may be) should have continued to function in some sort of degraded fashion. In this case we could compare it to a 'nuke' taking out AWS. AWS would be hiroshima and would cease to exist. All the customers living in AWS perish as well. I believe the point is to show that your internet application is not resilient. And also it's highlighting a single point of failure of IPv4 and/or DNS (which is somewhat solved in IPv6).
If I subscribe to this edge compute theory, then even if my customer is unable to reach my platform on AWS, my platform should be continuously available from e.g. Azure.. My customer's equipment should at some point be smart enough to know this. We can give it hints via Anycast, round-robin DNS, etc but these are hacks rather than solutions. What exists today that allows my browser to say "doesn't work going down this path, are there any other paths we could try?" A simple modification is for browsers to try every IP address returned on multiple A/AAAA records and then sticky those (in addition to the platform's distributed ability to communicate back to AWS on it's own routes). But this is still a hack.
One thing I take away is that it's highlighting the need for a newer protocol to empower smarter clients.
Where you upset with Obama for his deficits and how much he was adding to the national debt?
So, lets go back to where this all began. Bush. I was upset with Bush for taking a surplus to a record level deficit. Then Obama for doubling it. And now Trump for being on track to more than double it.
STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PAST, WE NEED TO ADDRESS THIS NOW. Stop complaining about the past, we need to address this now. NOT yesterday, we cannot change the path. NOT tomorrow, we'll be in even more debt. TODAY.
They went a full two months and then capitulated. I guess Q2 next year we will see the systems start to sell again... Meanwhile I paid full price for one and a 5% markup for the other. Worth it? Probably.
i like your idea of a slide switch because it gives the operator choice. you live in the boonies, have a garage, drive a $2000 fordor generally dont care then you don't have to disable for convenience. live in a major metro city, or otherwise are constantly at risk of theft of your $50k car you park on the street.. by all means boo-boo activate that slide switch.
i'm not inconvenienced, you are still safe. win-win. until you forget to slide it and get annoyed that your car won't unlock or worse, gets stolen because you never turned it off.
personally the accelerometer idea is superior but probably will destroy that cell battery in a matter of months rather than years
I have researched this at large, my one intervening factor is that I must have control over the devices (i.e. everything is accessible from my home network and the devices can never reach the internet). Z-wave fit the bill. I've used several z-wave switches and have realized one major issue with any device you are putting in your wall.. these things radiate a lot of heat and thus you want to make sure your devices use top quality components. This cuts out Crestron and Levitron. This leaves you with GE and Eaton. I went with Eaton first, and while their design isn't the greatest, you can tell from the specs that it can handle serious shit. The largest room with lights comes in at half it's rated wattage (700w or something like that). I was tempted with GE due to the lower price point for 3-way switches. Until I realized the second switch isn't really standalone and explains the lackluster power rating. GE has nicer design, but it doesn't export a lot of functionality to z-wave.
I ranted to explain that you get what you pay for. I have no worry of my house burning down and I get pretty granular control over my lights and switches. This did add almost 30% to the cost, so once again it's a situation of buyer beware. I didn't mention other zwave interfaces because they are so dirt cheap that it practically doesn't matter.. garage door openers for $50. locks for $200. automated blinds $50. thermostats around the $100 price point (although with the exception of two, they are all 1990 designs) Then there are the DIY z-wave interfaces that allow you to tuck away controllers into the bowels of your basement, or monitor electricity usage.
You all are missing the point. I was approached by ESW capital. They have an efficient structure in which they pay $150k, $300k, and up to $500k for management roles. The $150k positions are the ones "interfacing" with maintenance. They are hiring a lot of those positions, the $300 and $500k are the elite level of management/eneigneering/sales positions. From the people I saw in the interview process, very very few fit that bill.
If you don't think $150k to work from home for 40-50 hours a week is nothing to sneeze at (this is not the contract position the article speaks of) then you are going to be one of the many left out in the turning tides of IT employment.
Realistically, you only have 50 hours during the week. If you don't have a family yet, feel free to ratchet that number up to 70-80 hours. Plus 6 hours on the weekend (double or triple that if you don't have a family) and then you realize that side hustle needs to pay money.
Personally, I turned my side hustle into my day job. So that's 20-25 hours a week gone. But leaves me with 35-37 hours to put towards my true side hustle without having to sacrifice my health (still gym 3x a week, still in bed by 10pm and getting a full 8 hours) or my family (dinner time). If you're willing to give those up, you could easily pull two 30 hour/wk jobs
As a business owner, that's an AWESOME idea! I just went from 20% junk calls to 0% junk calls! I'm also now out of business because I didn't answer a single number I didn't recognize! Thanks, stevent!
Data connection is now more than reliable to make very high quality calls now.
Son, there is something called QoS and you lose that gaurantee on voice calls when you move to a Data-only connection. Skype is not going to prioritize it's packets over your WoW packages because there is no QoS. Ergo, you are at the mercy of the Data network you live on.
Do yourself a favor, stick to services that provide a QoS if you want to make very high quality calls now.

The only thing you missed is that plastic is not detected by metal detectors and some x-ray machines.
Likewise a tiny zipgun could make it past a security checkpoint just the same, but plastic lowers your detection threshold.
