As someone that is just attempting to get a better understanding of this aspect of a tech stack, when you say many apps don’t need Auth0 what is the actual alternative for the whol…

I ended up going down the rabbit hole looking into this practice and discovered companies exist advertising the ability to get any US citizens employment/compensation history for a…

> Matter/thread is nothing like zigbee, except the MAC layer is the same. Matter actually uses an iteration of the Zigbee device model - from an application level they are actually…

The official Matter SDK has examples targeting the ESP32, along with other low-cost chipsets: https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip/tree/master/...

Thread and Zigbee are entirely distinct protocols; Matter does not use Zigbee in any way, at any layer of the stack, with the exception of some influence on the high-layer device/d…

Thread is an IPv6 bearing mesh network; and if you have a border router that has the appropriate IP routing rules, and your firewall allows it, your Nanoleaf bulbs can most certain…

Stating that Thread is a rebranding of Zigbee is incorrect. Both are based on 802.15.4 for their physical layer but the two are entirely separate and managed by different standards…

I have been at a few companies now that seem to have drank the "server-driven UI" punch and were actively architecting their mobile applications to be entirely dependent upon a sta…

A few years back I got frustrated with the unreliability and cost of my home printer and a friend suggested I pick up an HP LaserJet 4000N - a printer that came out in the late 90’…

I’ve read through the GitHub repo and your message here and was surprised to see this is an 802.15.4 IPv6 mesh yet I see no mention or comparison to Thread - for which this project…

Curious how something such as this is actually implemented. Is there a feed that you are subscribing to? Are you consistently polling posts looking for changes? Or is it some third…

Have a couple LightSail instances that all went offline around the time that the homepage did and still cannot connect. Everything in the dashboard says they are healthy and online…

an async runtime inherently requires knowledge of the underlying system which Rust remains agnostic to. Rust can be written to target bare-metal (where no OS exists) to WASM and ev…

I've done 400km in a single day (19hr with stops), all gravel, single track, and forest trails. This ride always ends up being almost more mentally challenging than physically chal…

PAF can be thought of as basically a broadcast message to any and all WiFi devices in the area, regardless of if they are connected to the same access point or IP network. In the c…

It's a bit of an open secret at this point that Amazon is also using 802.11 PAF (Public Action Frames) to aid in the magic "unbox an amazon device and it immediately is online". Wo…

This appears to just be an attempt to masquerade the benefits of significant figures without considerations for the downsides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_figures

I personally have found that one of Discords major shortcomings is the lack of support for threaded message chains. For those times when you may have 2+ parallel conversations in a…

If this really worked and made such a drastic improvement why not get one of the plethora of bike power meters available on the market and show the needed effort to maintain a set …

I think personally this is one of the biggest details that is being entirely overlooked. In past keynotes Apple has mentioned they are actively working with other companies on the …
