The other thing is the vast majority of UF6 in the fuel cycle is low-enriched (reactor grade), so it's not useful for building a nuclear weapon. Access to high-enriched uranium is very tightly controlled. You can of course disperse rad

The first P25 standards came out in 1989, so encrypted police radios were certainly starting to be deployed in the early 90s. Obviously, adoption rate depended on the department budget, with many rural departments taking until the 2010s to

A couple of bright physics grad students could build a nuclear weapon. Indeed, the US Government actually tested this back in the 1960s - they had a few freshly minted physics PhDs design a fission weapon with no exposure to anything but th

I have two Tapo units at home, they seem to be working fine without an internet connection. I created a new subnet and an associated WiFi SSID for it, connected the Tapo cameras, and set them up to act as RTSP cams. I then firewalled the su

Interstellar space is pretty empty, and we have good models for it thanks to the radio astronomy community. Dispersion is low enough to be nearly negligible, even over tens of light years. Determining theoretical interstellar link rates is

It would be a lot more efficient to use erasure coding + heavy interleaving with other traffic so that you can withstand a maximum predicted outage period.

Most of what they do is Layer 2 and above, so it's hardware agnostic - prototyping on a Pi is fine. Their work is gaining traction. DTN Bundle Protocol has been baselined for the LunaNet specification, which a bunch of private companie

I think it's both. It wasn't a problem when browsers were simple content display engines, but now that they are full VMs for application software, they need some of that capability just to function. FWIW, I think this was a mistak

TIL, thanks! The usual convention of calling them "cookie dialogues" sure obfuscates that.

Since fingerprinting is mostly client side, it should be detectable. If you serve a web page with a fingerprinting script, that should be an automatic big fine.

The fingerprint collection happens mostly using client-side JS (a bit of server side with HTTP headers, but the really high entropy stuff is client side). Conceivably you could develop some sort of heuristic that detects when a script is si

Browser fingerprinting is one of those things that should be outright illegal - it is far more of a threat than tracking cookies ever were. But it hasn't permeated the public consciousness like cookies have, so regulators seem to ignor

I wonder if domain validation might be a good addition to this? You could encode a public key in a TXT record for the domain, and if present, vet could check a signature in the shell script against the key in the TXT record. It wouldn'

Ah, okay, well if you already have the IPv4 address space available for all your customers that's a different story. I can understand why you want to wait to dual-stack in that case. I do think NAT64/464XLAT is a pretty good archi

by Sanzig 1y ago
In principle, IPv6 core networks can actually be very beneficial for small providers just starting out if they're not able to get IPv4 addresses for their customers and are forced to use CGNAT. In an IPv4-only CGNAT setup, all the traf

by Sanzig 1y ago
If you already have to do CGNAT, why not IPv6 as your core network with NAT64 at the border and 464XLAT on the CPE? It gives you best of both worlds.
140.
by Sanzig 1y ago
Surprised they aren't deploying NAT64/DNS64 with 464XLAT on the CPE. You get essentially the same setup as CGNAT for IPv4 services but your whole core network is native IPv6 so you only have one set of address space to manage and

Ah, whoops, you're right! Somehow my brain defaulted to Kelvin. So 740 K down to 290 K. Carnot COP alone is only around 65%, you'll be lucky to do half that, you need the stuff outside to survive heat and sulfuric acid, and you&#x

Humans have already survived simulated dives in hyperbaric chambers to around 70 bar with no long term effects, so in theory you may be able to have Venusian astronauts live in a habitat at ambient pressure if 90 bar is similarly tolerable

I really like the STM32 ecosystem, but you have hit the nail on the head - there's too many variants. You really don't need 200 variations of a basic M0+ part, and having all those SKUs hurts availability because you're playi
