This is a very US centric way of looking at this. Currently sitting in a packed subway carriage in Busan, South Korea. There are carrier WIFI APs installed in every carriage. Their network is literally built to offload people onto wifi where possible, I presume to reduce congestion on not much or very directional spectrum in the tunnels. In this case, it makes perfect sense to push people onto their wifi. Not connecting to your own networks preferentially is a pita though. Seems like a really neat solution imo

Papermill is a fantastic product. I used this in a previous role to execute customer notebooks driven by an Airflow scheduler. It was fantastic, let me inject private DB creds into the notebook so the customer didn’t have our prod db creds when they were writing them to start

Because Apple (its employees) aren't actually viewing the images, nor transmitting them. They mention somewhere that it's a low res proxy of the image, or something similar.

By newer macbooks, its just macbooks newer than 2015. The 2015s and earlier didn't have h265 encoders in hardware, and thus don't work properly. There is a hack you can install to force sidecar to run on earlier macs, but the latency and quality is terrible, partially because h264 is harder to shove over the wire than more compressed h256

I think the key thing is yet. I bet we will see a toned down version of it, esp the electric parts not too far in the future

Incredible the perf they get out of it. Bit confused with the graph towards the end, is perf better under Rosetta than natively?!

You can't, as in any developed nation I can think of, advertise alcohol to children. Take a look at the actions the industry has taken when they even put alcohol ads too close to children, or too appealing to children, ctrl-f for moon dog. https://www.abac.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/ABAC-Quar...

You cannot advertise alcohol to children in Australia

Yes. It is absolutely illegal. Not sure anywhere where this would be legal. Ie. "TV or radio ads about alcohol cannot target children. They also should not be irresponsible in targeting adults." https://www.acma.gov.au/ads-alcohol-tobacco-or-therapeutic-g...

Edit: changed the example

Just got an iPhone 12 in Australia and I see 1100mbit downloads regularly on sub 6 5G. Maybe the network isn’t saturated yet, but that blew me away. That isn’t too far away from mm wave, and I get that inside my apartment. What is Telstra doing differently here to make it work like that? Also worth mentioning, I would consistently get 150mbit down indoors on 4g. Feel lucky to have such a fast network here. I pay ~$30/month for 80gb data

What is a CS code?

Hyperledger fabric gets around this by storing a copy of the data up to the last block in some other db, like couchDB. That way, you get (supposedly) the best of both worlds

Wifi direct is definitely implemented on android, not sure what you are specifically talking about?

Getting 500s all over the api, gl whoever is on call

Doing this with housemate + some friends for a week. We figure its going to be unlikely we will ever be able to just go somewhere to work like this for a while (if in person comes back/covid lockdowns get worse again), so taking advantage. Why not now that we have the opportunity?

That sounds pretty huge. I've never seen on Hackaday or similar people getting small runs of chip fabbed. What are the broader implications of this? Will other fabs start to lower the barrier to production as well?

I believe their model only works for the top 50k songs in your region. Pretty rarely does my pixel not recognise music that is playing around me, that seems to be a large enough number

In Europe, and the comparison is even worse in $AUD

All the tap water in Australia is fluoridated. You would be considered a bit odd if you drink filtered water instead of tap water (bar say SA where the water tastes bad). All other things equal, we should expect 3&4 yearolds to have a 3.66 higher IQ than those, say, in NSW, where the water is treated and tastes good enough to drink?

Surely there are some population effects or something else going on here, or the effect, especially later on in life, evens out between the groups.

Almost University of New South Wales (Sydney, Australia) alum, and it's the biggest difference between the Software Engineering course and Comp Sci. There are two mandatory formal methods and more additional ones to take. They are really hard, and mean a lot of the SENG cohort ends up graduating as COMPSCI, since they can't hack it and don't want to repeat formal methods.
