This is my experience too, I'm baffled that when making a basic search about a programming language on Google, the top results are only SEO garbage that waste your time for a basic answer. I'm better off asking GPT those days.

I recently found out that a manufacturer (TI, NXP, murata, infineon?) was demonstrating a USB2 live camera capture using a UWB (Ultra-Wide-Band) short range wireless transmission. But I can't found the source again.

Does anybody know if there is any usage/implementation of a distributed hash table (with consistent hashing) for reliable file storage in a datacenter instead of internet p2p ? Would that make sense and what would be the drawbacks ?

A simple solution (probably used in many places) to this problem is to have brackets. Everybody is taxed 6.6% on its income until a certain threshold and the rest is taxed at 50%. You can add more brackets as needed. And so, there is no inc
