That depends entirely on what they are listening with. One sub set of ham radio is called fox hunting which is a gameified form of radio direction finding. Some guys are really good at it. If you annoy one of them and they are persistent th

What threeio said is right. Technically, encoding data digitally isn't encryption and is fine, and there are digital modes used by Hams. But if you were to come up with your own scheme I could see some sweaty old timers try to accuse y

Using encryption on ham bands is illegal yes. You can use it on commercial bands if you buy a license from the FCC and ISM (common 2.4ghz/5Ghz) is mostly fair game as well. The practical reality is people are probably getting away with

It could be a mistranslation and just refer to DTS/CTCSS. The cpu isn't powerful enough to implement real AES encryption and the datasheet doesn't mention a hardware crypto module. It could be an inversion scrambler, that

Its all very messy. The scientific method is about the best system we have. But the scientific method and academia are not the same thing. I've yet to find anyone besides some weird philosophers and contrarians who actually doubt the s

People act like this is the end of the world for regulation but it isn't. Nor is getting rid of chevron deference a bad thing. SCOTUS' intent here is pretty clear. If congress wants to delegate a power to the executive then they m

As usual, the reporting on science ends up distorting or even inventing conclusions out of thin air.

Yes and know. The implication of it being an "unsecured email server" to me sounds like they spun up a VM for some reason instead of using Exchange online.

The system owner is responsible for security of systems they have deployed on Fedramp services. Microsoft is responsible for securing the service but they don't make sure every vm you spun up on Azure meets your own security baselines.

Game mechanics are generally not copyrightable. Nintendo did file patents for some mechanics in the newest Zelda game. I don't know how well those would hold up under court scrutiny, bad patents are approved every day. Pokemon's m

The only way I see this working with out current economics and IP law is if the people training models license the work they are using. And a traditional license wouldn't do, it would have to be one specific to training AI models. As t

I think there likely is little cause for concern. Is it contributing to poor health? Maybe but if it is then its a small contribution. There are much bigger issues like poor diet and lifestyle. HFCS for example was easy to link to poor heal

IIRC there is some evidence of hormonal changes related to some volatiles associated with certain types of plastics. That might have something to do with it. But Obesity can also easily be explained by more mundane things like terrible diet

We've had mass use plastic for decades. Baby boomers were likely born with plastic in their veins. I certainly was.

Have we been able to link any real harm to microplastics? I know it sounds bad intuitively. But can we draw a link to any diseases? What if this just amounts to fear mongering?

I don't like the solution being to just make containers out of everything. That introduces its own problems and lets developers be lazy in other ways.
