• there’s an “ai camera” that can tell you what you need to buy (though something tells me that struggles if your fridge isn’t set up like a stock image and is actually loaded with like food and condiments and shit like a normal person)

  What do you mean? You don’t individually label and color coordinate Tupperware containers every time you put leftovers in the fridge?

  *looks at three brown grocery bags of vegetables I didn’t bother to unpack and five rubbermaids, one upside down, tossed randomly in fridge*

• My emails are usually “I ordered an amount of these things in case anybody noticed we were out” and “finished this leg of this project, moving on to the next”. Occasionally there’s “Thank you for clearing that up <leader person>, I’ll touch base with <person who actually does shit> for the details and get out of your way.”

• My understanding (poorly educated in Greek mythology) is that Sisyphus is being punished by performing a never ending task for all eternity, there’s nothing saying he can’t or isn’t allowed to enjoy it.

  I don’t believe crushing shit is prohibited, as long as the shit being crushed is either on his way up, or the boulder’s way down. In this situation it seems both options are within Sisyphus’ allowed routes, and he gets/has to crush some shit either way. So yes, Sisyphus is happy either way.

• The physical layer is proprietary, the signals it produces is not. So if you can develop a way to reproduce the signals without using or stealing their hardware you’re good.

  There are efforts to reverse engineer it.

  on FCC ISM Rules May Shatter Lora Mesh Communities in c/technology@lemmy.world · 6d ago

• You’re correct in your understanding, but one problem is that Lora isn’t spread spectrum in the traditional sense(s). It’s a narrow band signal that traverses over a wide band as it’s method of modulation/encoding. The FCC has regulations for direct sequence spread spectrum (entire transmission is spread out) and frequency hopping spread spectrum (narrowband signal, randomly transmitted within a range). Lora is neither, using chirp spread spectrum (narrowband signal travels up and down within it’s bandwidth).

  The ideas as I understand them in the regulations is that a full spread transmission has lower amplitude and isn’t strong enough at any frequency to interfere with other transmitters, and the pseudo random spread doesn’t stay anywhere long enough to completely interfere on any one frequency. Lora isn’t either, but it is low power and traverses it’s bandwidth quickly, so it most closely follows the direct sequence spread spectrum method if you remove your glasses and squint.

  This sharp transmission, but travelling over a wide range is what makes it able to transmit over such long distances. It has the signal to noise of Morse code, and interference tolerance of direct sequence spread spectrum.

• I have a feeling there’s a point in time where most non-it self-hosters got fed up with ads and installed pihole, then learned about DNS. I have a feeling that started about five years ago.

  Now it’s probably hand in hand with how necessary a pihole is.

• From what I’ve read, they’re using AI to find bugs. As far as I’m concerned, a bug is a bug no matter who or what finds it. So long as they aren’t using it to produce code.

• I just had a thought. The people pushing for AI use get fined when the make huge mistakes, basically a speeding ticket. But they’re pushing AI on people that get fired or go to jail if they make a huge mistake, more like A DUI. So they’re saying “use this thing that makes the kind of mistakes that I’d fire you over, and take responsibility of it”.
