100% AI according to pangram. Article collapse or blog collapse is more accurate.

Honestly, this only really helps people in rural areas. The vast majority of urban 5GHz implementations are at 80MHz - 6GHz does allow for 160MHz channelization, but at 320MHz the attenuation is so great that most homes will require multiple APs to actually hit appropriate MCS indexes.

The others are big, trust me.

My point was that some businesses are tying their destiny to nix - in my experience this is a sign that an open-source project will gain corporate benefactors keeping it afloat + making it safer for others to adopt.

Arista, D.E. Shaw, Google are boring big corp

Several of those companies (replit) are building their business on nix.

With nix, even containers are optional.

I’ve used this model for a few networks and had a good time. Minimal setup and supports a WPS-like security.

See the diagram in this guide: https://www.motorolacable.com/documents/MM1025-QuickStart-re...

Note both the usage of the PoE (point of entry, not power) filter, as well as the MoCA network encapsulating both DOCSIS and Ethernet traffic.

Some set-top boxes and modems are MoCA compatible, but I prefer using a discrete unit.

This is not quite true - GPU's are limited to select VM types, and the number of GPU's you have influences the maximum number of cores you can get. In general they're only available on the n1 instances (except the a100's, but those are far less popular)

Allowing an advertising company to scan all of my traffic is extremely unappealing

Bluetooth tracking kinda sucks unless you’re literally apple or have beacons everywhere somehow. It really just gives proximity to a known location.

UWB and Cell tower tracking are much more accurate for the majority of real-world applications

HN is an example of what used to be good about the internet. The page loads quickly without pulling in 100Mb of frontend dev navel-gazing. In my experience simple sites like this are much easier to modify locally for accessibility, via screen readers, or local style sheets to modify things like the small click targets.

I think many in the HN crowd see it as a rejection of the modern bloat and straight up garbage code that many popular sites (particularly news aggregators, looking @ you reddit) tend to become.
