Traditionally, that was the case. However, telcos are now moving toward Open RAN as an alternative to building their RAN networks on purpose-built hardware such as baseband units for 5G, and instead moving to a disaggregated, open radio acc

I recently purchased an EV, and there is an emergency high voltage battery cutoff in the rear. Do you guys know about those, or if so, are they effective?

I have two kids. One of them was an "honor" student from 6th grade on. The difference was one teacher. My younger one was tapped by their teacher for a special program in 5th grade that put her in a class with other "smart&qu

We already did this. CLECs popped up and offered DSL and cable internet services for a while, throughout the late 90s and early 00s. Here's the real reason competition doesn't pop up in the footprint of the incumbents - when they

And they did, until they didn't. This is not a brand new, unproven technology. It's been developing for over a decade. The car didn't hurt anyone or crash into anything - it simply did not have its lights on. The behavior to

>We were able to deliver these treatments to the children in our ongoing clinical trials thanks only to funding from a generous family whose own child is a participant. Wish this were not the case.

Eradication is not the goal. Making sure hospitals aren't overwhelmed with COVID patients is the goal. Catching COVID is potentially dangerous and often times results in long recovery window. Vaccination is harmless and works. The thre

Several of the insurrectionists did have guns. The protest began peacefully, and turned violent following Trump's speech, where he urged the crowd to "fight like hell". These people aren't normal like you and I. They are

Congress was set to certify the election that day. Had the insurrection succeeded, Mike Pence likely would have been killed (remember the "hang Mike Pence" slogan?), along with Democrats in Congress. This would have allowed Trump

But did enter the Capitol building with hand held weapons, body armor, zip ties to subdue people, and were heard talking about locating members of Congress. Enough with the disingenuousness.

The insurrectionists at the Capitol killed and injured Capitol police officers. If Mike Pence had been complicit with their wishes not to certify the election, we'd be living in a dictatorship. It was a very serious and pivotal moment

Gusto. They automatically pay my taxes, employees, do all the HRIS functions, and file forms with government entities. This is my first year with them, but so far, I'm pretty happy.

I own a small business, and have resolved to NEVER use any Intuit product. It's not very hard, and actually opens one up to possibilities that make life a lot easier.

I also know someone who traveled to Florida and died from COVID shortly thereafter.

Similar story here - a family member contracted COVID in a nursing home, was sent to the hospital due to low blood oxygen levels, and was discharged. They passed away 2 weeks later, but the cause of death was not listed as COVID. I live in

I wish my workplace could use Discord instead of Teams. The drop-in voice channels would be so handy.

I was surprised to learn that fire suppression systems use 900MHz networks for backup alerting as well. My whole city is enmeshed with it.

I have the same experience with non-standard port usage, and I think it's a very reasonable thing to do, while also caring for the security of the service behind that socket. SecOps will thank you for not having to wade through log spa

These guys were 15 years old when they started, and are now 20. That's amazing, great work!

Very interesting. Some of it was over my head, but it didn't appear that the goal was surveillance or circumvention of security measures (aside from circumventing some boot verification of files). I assume the counterfeiters' goa

My mom lives on Fox Island, and has no access to the Internet aside from LTE, which is very expensive and unreliable. Hoping she'll get a look from the Starlink team!

First, this is conservative propaganda masquerading as intellectual analysis, and I'm surprised it's made it this far on HN. Where this prescription falls short of the cure: the most extreme are also the most vocal, and are the on

I'll add to this: unless you have a lot of money, hand tools are going to not only be the quiet option, but the best option overall. I recently bought a Craftsman bench jointer, and tried to flatten some walnut for furniture making wit
