Is there any implementation of the store and forward for mobile nodes? From what I recall, meshcore de duplication only tracks like the last 256 messages so that could quickly fail to de duplicate.

I believe there might be more to it. Wasn't a big part of thinking or reasoning taking the response, replacing the final period with "Wait!" and then continuing? Which suggests that such words actually are important to the in

TLDR one developer tried to trademark the name meschcore. He also took over development of some parts and then hid that he was vibecoding. Since being called out on these things, he’s been ghosting the rest of the team. He also happens to c

This delay in nuclear means that, by now, nuclear is no longer a solution. Had we started with nuclear somewhere in the first decade of this millennium, then it would have been a good solution to climate change, and we would be in a better

I hate to be this dismissive, but it feels like an academic with a paternalistic streak looked deeply at how the Internet works, saw lots of different protocols and weird design decisions, and decided: this is not coherent enough. Then he f

There was a lot of forceful diplomacy by the US. Sure, but there was also a lot of actually good diplomacy happening. Calling all of that a thin glove is underselling the good work of a lot people. The good side of US diplomacy was one of t

Confidentiality of the TLS connection is indeed easy to handle here. The hard part is certificate authentication. And that's not included in the cipher suite setting.

Nonono. Nothing mandatory. It's a parents choice. The thing to do is help parents enforce their choices. Not forcing choices onto parents.

It's not that they are meaningfully different. It's just acknowledging if you really want currying, you can say 'why not just use a single parameter of tuple type'. Then there's an implication of 'sure, but th

For schools and hospitals, why specify COTS? Do you want SOTS for schools and HOTS for hospitals just like we have MOTS?

If the solution is parental control software, that also puts onus on operating systems to present the means for such software to work properly. This does not mean the OS should censor, it might mean the OS offers a censorship interface. At

So the solution is effective parental controls. Government mandated age verification isn't parental control, and is unlikely to be very effective. That means making it possible for parents to actively block bad websites, and making tha

I think intentionally and willingly doing something whilst informed of the consequence doesn't count as human error. At least not in this context. Though it would make more sense, since these humans are likely largely erroneous.

Age limits might be an alternative. Say at 65 or 70. That's at an age where wizened legislators can move into advisory roles, instead of needing to find a next career.

When you put an LLM in reasoning mode, it will approximately have a conversation with itself. This mimics an inner monologue. That conversation is held in text, not in any internal representation. That text is called the reasoning trace. Yo

If you want to be pedantic about it you could phrase it as follows. When the LLM was in reasoning mode, in the reasoning context it often expressed statement X. Given that, and the relevance of statement X to the taken action. It seems like

So for the ISS at 20c you'd get 481 W/m^2 so you'd only need 2.3m2. So comparing the ISS at 20c to space datacenters at 70c you get an improvement of 63%. Nice, but doesn't feel game-changing. The power radiated is T^4,

Why does it matter if people have to sell their shares to unlock value? Is it just the friction of small orders? Buybacks for manipulating share prices and earnings per share are indeed silly. But they should also be trivial to compensate f

A buyback is almost the same as a dividend, with minor differences around tax and effects on derivative pricing. And ASML has been paying out a dividend for a long time.

So he explains OFDM in a way that implicitly does Amplitude shift keying. I guess if you want to use different modulations you treat the complex number corresponding to the subcarrier as an IQ point in quadrature. So you take the same symbo
