at what point do you start baking barium titanate into the PCB itself?

I thought that it was patent related, other than adding slightly more PHY complexity

While benzene vapors are bad, we probably shouldn't tolerate very much benzene being in things that are rubbed onto the skin intentionally. Trace amounts as you say might not really matter though.

It could go into the information directly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer%27s_principle

With sufficiently defined lease contracts it should be possible to price out the used machine risk from a new machine... Hmm

Minor nitpick but they are both considered Ethernet. The 4 pair copper one is 10GBASE-T.

Seems like a missed opportunity to try adding a capacitor dead-bug style onto the board to see if it cleans it up.

Shouldn't you be giving people their tokens back when you used their tokens to test on their environment?

This is open source. You're thinking of trusted execution, audits, licenses with disclosure requirements, or signed affidavits which is a totally different thing than open source. Otherwise you could claim that just about anything isn't open source just because you're not sure what is happening on someone else's computer.

HN's autocorrect seems to cause more trouble than it's worth.

Sinc interpolation is somewhat resource-intensive / latency inducing which is why it's not used as frequently in realtime audio.

I see telecoms make loops all the time both indoors and outside. The loops should be strapped together and strapped down though.

Bends ideally need pull boxes, but given the lack of pull boxes, you might be able to use fish tape where where fish rods / glow rods don't work, if you cannot get a pullstring / pull cable going.

If it's any consolation, you can have fiber without jackets as long as they are cable-managed very carefully.

The failure rate of an individual layer of Swiss cheese should be bounded under most circumstances but not all. So you should probably have more layers when hazards cannot be eliminated.

To me the problem with drag and drop is not only that it has to be a single continuous motion, but that nothing else interrupts you at an inconvenient time while you are doing it. The consequences of an incorrect drag and drop can be confusing. This "pick and place" UI is more precise and less error prone but a lot less convenient. Maybe there is a middle ground.

probably something like a stirling engine + working fluid going down tubes in the plate, it becomes worth it to develop silicon-on-insulator GPUs and other weird technologies that run at higher temps

legal citogenesis?

It seems a little unintuitive to me, might be better as a click and drag kind of puzzle

The chip itself supports using a TCXO instead of a regular crystal

If it's a PON then it's not Ethernet media. You would then be looking for an ONT SFP but those are far from ordinary SFPs. They are not just dumb devices, there is a lot going on inside them since they crammed a whole ONT into the SFP, and it communicates SFI back to the host equipment as if it would have been Ethernet.

You would need the ISP to "adopt" your ONT into their network similar to what is observed with cable modems.

Metallized windows would be nice at least

Honest question, does it aerosolize pathogens that cause food-borne illness?

No, the Quarks did not have the f00f bug, that would have been funny though.

A parallelogram is just a rectangle with extra steps. Maybe they could have mentioned what those steps are but it seems fairly straightforward

The vapor does recondense into a liquid which is why they usually have a very rough and porous inner surface texture. But you're right that there isn't meaningful circulation, just convection.

I do it this way every time.

Were the lanes engineered for 5.0? Maybe this is a signal integrity issue.

I've got an LVM setup where the EFI boot stuff is triple RAID1 and the OS is on LVM with RAID5, but all other LVM volumes for data are selectively RAID0 or RAID5. It was not a fun experience to set up and it seems like certain actions could break it. But as long as it's respected it keeps going really well.

Rateless erasure FEC can go even further.
