What happens if someone is sniffing the line? It wouldn't even need to be your fault, it could be some logger on your customer's server... i.e. do you have any protection against someone including this in the client code: DE

You could watch the 'Hello World' Machine Learning Recipes videos by Josh Gordon at Google. Very approachable! The first lesson is a classifier to separate apples and oranges. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKxRvE

I don't know... look at the bug report and the fix [1]. This does look like a bug in WiredTiger. It preallocates all of its cache, so it doesn't look like raw capacity problems. It looks like the internal MongoD issues pushed the

You don't even have to have wifi enabled, even when Wi-Fi is OFF it will still scan for SSIDs to use for location by default. You have to disable an obscure setting to get it to stop this behavior.

The WiFi module is also a TI chipset, so same trust issues as the AM3358. The wifi driver is open source, however with a binary blob for WiFi and Bluetooth firmware.

Though, if you can budget to go through FCC Verification testing (class B), maybe around $1000-1500 depending on your test house, it can sometimes be quite a useful learning experience for a board of moderate complexity. It is surprising wh

Of course, "large" is not about the data necessarily, but about the analysis of the data. It sounds like you presented sqlite with a query which would need more than the resources of your computer in order to execute as you specif

Looks good. Consider applying a conformal coating at the end. It will provide a lot of protection from general handling and riding around on a keychain, and preserve the 'raw PCB' look. Something like: http://www.mgchem

Well, technically , since this device contains a clock, it should go through FCC Part 15 Verification before being sold. However, the FCC doesn't really have the budget to go after every board produced, you have to REALLY mess up to g

Sorry, you should do more research... :) Rust has great support for very low level operations. Maybe search for 'bitwise operators' or 'inline assembly'. Memory management is even more explicit and strict than C, since
