Mostly only IoT devices from Asia. There are a small handful of things coming out of the west on ESP32, but professional users still stay away as they don't have the kind of engineering connections into Wwstern industries that Nordic

That data is the market reality. Nobody in business cares about 3d models of teapots, they're trying to build physical products and there's a lot more that goes into that process than the mechanical drawing of the end product. Th

One would hope that the market could work this out, and when people went looking for options, would keep this in mind. Instead what people do is find the lowest fare possible, all other considerations be damned. It’s not like this is the f

Maybe, but we'll never know because you've just traded one cloud solution for another. You cannot audit their code and by handing over all your passwords, you've just made your entire digital life dependant upon their contin

Keepass is FOSS and there are compatible clients for basically every OS you might think of, including IOS, Android, OSX, Windows, and Linux. It does not include multi-device sync, but it works nicely with other solutions that provide that

I think the catch is simply that the maintainers of OSM are difficult to work with if you’re Apple et al. They wanted a better governance model so they went and made one that they can live with.

LSEG recently used leverage to buy market data firm Refinitiv which was somewhere around 5x the size of LSEG itself. They are risk averse, but clearly not as much as they used to be. That acquisition came with a large amount of hardware i

So your primary complaint here is the amount of time it took? Why shouldn't a bike be illegal as it allows you to go places in weeks that used to take years?

Asianometry is a pretty well sourced and researched channel focused on this exact field. I don't know that it's fair to call this "clickbait", the title is in response to a growing meme around Taiwan and the video makes

You've thrown out a lot of performance numbers here but most of us aren't compliling rust on our routers. Have you stood up iperf to see how fast it routes? The task is harder than you think if you want any features to go with t
