When you say accurate, do you count the number of available items on the shelf, or are you just looking for at least 1 of something? It seems to matter more when there are only 1 or 2 ‘available’, but I have seen at Lowes where the packet h

Or the box got stabbed with a forklift, bent a bunch of the pieces, and they are piled in the back somewhere, and the assistant manager handling it no longer works there. Or the customer returned it because it was damaged, so now it is in i

Who do you hire to do that? How quickly can you train them? Where do they send the collected information? How is the collected info processed and aggregated? How much money is lost doing the above versus just shutting down? I think their DR

Depending on the version of Windows, it may not have even had native TCP/IP support by default. Trumpet Winsock was a very important piece of software for a bit, from Windows 3 to 98. Serial ports were much more popular back then.

Anecdotal, but working in retail in the 90s, the backend system was some *nix server, the wireless Telxon guns ran DOS 3.2, and there was a dedicated OS/2 Warp desktop that would perform reporting and aggregate data. I am not sure what

This was my original theory. I was looking at Google satellite photos of their Roanoke, VA site, and you can see there is a regular gas station nearby, but is connected and has a giant loop for tanker trucks to fuel up. In past jobs where I

I feel it is less of a struggle now. I remember having to support IE 6 through 9, Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Opera. I think at least 25% of the team’s time was spent on getting IE 6 to behave acceptably. No built-in browser debugger or ‘de

A blockchain does not require anything beyond ensuring the prior entries checksums make sense. Making past entries immutable is the purpose. Proof of work and distributed mining don’t need a blockchain. Have you heard of hashcash? It is pro

Cyberdecks have been popular for at least a year or so, but, yes, not sure why this one in particular made it to the frontpage. Hackaday has quite a bit of cyberdeck projects on their blog, here: https://hackaday.com/tag

I disagree. Even if you are doing the wrong thing consistently, one has a much greater chance of knowing what parameters can be tweaked to alter the outcome. Consistency is easier to monitor/log. It is easier to experiment. Without con
