Of course; telecoms are always pushing the leading edge of data transfer would need fiber for 10/25/40/50/100/400GbE. Some of our customers are still making designs using Triple Speed 10/100/1000Mbps thoug

I was just making a commentary on the traps some of our end-customers fall into, when they upgrade the connection to fiber thinking it will improve their network speeds when the protocol is in fact the limiting factor.

As someone who designs networking chips for a living it's always entertaining to me when people get very excited over their new fiber optic cables, despite the fact their PHY/MAC doesn't support much over 1GbE. You can use Co

My partner and all of the other teachers in their school are writing their school reports in ChatGPT now. They put in a few points to describe how the student is performing, and the model puts it into a cohesive format. It's made an ac

Massively behind this sentiment. To be frank, thinking you can ever make something that is impossible to criticise to ego run rampant. OPs question shouldn't be "How do I deal with criticism" but "How do I tame my ego&qu

If your only measurable metric is how much the company grows, you hire for the economy you're in, not the one you're headed into. The grew massively in the pre and mid Covid boom, and shrunk massively since then. Only if you care

I have a rule that I don't pick up unless I already have them in my contacts. If they're not and they need to contact me, they can text me or send me an email, and I'll call back.

Exactly my point. Because of social media . It is both the reason people stay at home, and the reason we have nothing to go back to. I'm not suggesting social spaces don't exist. I'm suggesting that the culture and people th

The last 20 years haven't just seen an increase in social media usage though; it's seen a decrease in socializing between kids outside of school. It's easy to remove access to their socials. It's very hard to replace t

I posted a comment a while back about this same phenomenon, which I can't for the life of me find now, but it was quoting some data from media posts about job cuts in the tech industry. The overarching theme was that the "tech wor

Here are a few STEM focused ones I'm in. Note, that much of the content (due to the younger age demographic) is people asking for homework help and such a lot of the time. Funny enough, that has died down now with the advent of ChatGPT

The Conservatives recognize that they are probably set to lose the next general election, so clearly had to speed up the timeline on implementing their facist policies while they've still got the time left in power. Saying that, it see

I read that in the article and meant to scratch Signal off the list but never did. Fixed now. The idea that they could stop any criminal accessing some sort of alternative E2EE chat incredibly easily despite this bill is really a commentary

I still think there is value in reading it cover to cover though, if only for spaced repetition. I'll skim read it to know the titles/where to find everything, use the tools, read a bit deeper, user the tools some more; repeat. It
