Yes, but a rectifier only rectifies . That's not going to give you DC-DC conversion - let alone converting it to a higher voltage for long-distance transmission.

Sure, you formally verified that the software confirms to the specification, but how are you going to prove that the specification is correct?

If they cared about security, US-made routers wouldn't be exempt.

That's only proof of the vulnerability. Where's the proof of it being misused by the vendor?

> what are the revocation tickets about then Usually, technical details. Think: a cert issued with a validity of exactly 1000 days to the second when the rules say the validity should be less than 1000 days. Or, a cert where the state na

It is quite precise, it just isn't accurate. On the one hand, they can do a perfect triple-tap. On the other hand, the perfect triple-tap hit a girls' school rather than a military base...

This is exactly why CAs are slowly reducing cert validity. With a 47-day validity already on the calendar for 2029, nobody in their right mind is going to onboard a new service/device without automated renewal in 2026. Same with any

The real fun starts when you have to do an unscheduled renewal! Companies are generally able to develop a workable process around regularly-scheduled tasks. If you can't, you'll quickly run into trouble due to late salary payo

AUI was still very much alive with XAUI[0] during the 10Gbps era! If you're willing to be a little bit more flexible, the MAC-to-PHY distinction never really went away with the various MII generations: every speed from 10Mbps to 10Gbps

On the other hand: it also doesn't include instances where GitHub is painfully slow but technically usable. These days it is very common that something like opening the diff view of a trivial PR takes 15-30 seconds to load. Sure, it

Seconding the use of p4merge for easy-to-use three-pane merging. Just like most other issues with Git, if your merges are painful it's probably due to terrible native UX design - not due to anything conceptually wrong with Git.

On the other hand, 5-minute charging is definitely a luxury thing: most charging is going to be at home, a decent bunch will be destination charging, people doing long trips generally don't mind having the car charge for 30 minutes w

Interesting. I occasionally rent EVs in Western Europe, and they just come with a single RFID card which seems to be accepted by all charging providers.

I already covered that part. Pilots are supposed to rigidly follow their checklists - to the point of having to execute some of them from memory. A computer could easily do the same for the vast majority of emergencies. The "Miracle
