Why not both?

Two way radios can often connect to the telephone network through a bridge at the radio repeater

Recommended practice is to timestamp windows drivers (and software) when they are signed. Without a timestamp, the driver is not trusted after the signing cert expires, which I gue…

A physical memtransistor will be a lot faster than emulating it in software, but you'll also be limited by the original connections and design of the chip. Not as easy to reconfigu…

This does suck, but you can actually use From: aliases if you set them up first in the Gmail interface. You also have to enable two factor auth. Hard to be too mad about spam fight…

Yes they do. A Faraday cage is equally good at blocking radio waves going out as coming in. They don't protect against conducted emissions though - along a power cable for example …

I think the popular perception of a learning curve is difficulty vs time.

The PWM backlight driver frequency should be much higher. This kind of effect is only perceptible at sub-kilohertz LED switching. The LEDs themselves are happy to be cycled into th…

The article abstract ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29176609 ) says that the old "nyquist density" sensor arrays were designed to capture the theoretical maximum amount of d…

Yes, a user-mode driver is something you would write instead of a kernel mode driver, if you can. Kernel-mode code is the most powerful, but also poses the greatest security and st…

A big problem with Youtube's three-strikes approach is that it's the same for all channels, big or small. It doesn't matter how much good content you've produced or how long you've…

I think kernel mode drivers have more stringent signing requirements than user mode drivers. A user-installed CA definitely cannot be used to silently install a kernel mode driver.…

My space engineering professor says for what he does (microsatellites mostly, but some science instruments for bigger satillites) they use off the shelf non-radiation hardened part…

This article says that it's easier and better for companies to keep their unfair compensation schemes private than risk employee unhappiness by making them transparent. Sure, it's …

This was posted earlier and flagged. The discussion probably needs a more neutral article.

There's really no practical alternative but to ship binaries with baked in API keys. Maybe you dynamically provision API keys, but the binary needs a baked in permission to access …

The concern is that a lot of behaviour that a security researcher would do in the course of their research, taking over C&C server addresses such as with Wannacry, soliciting for s…

The 18 core i9-7980XE is widely thought[1] to be a direct response to the 16 core Threadripper announcement. It was announced late, with much less info. It has a expected release d…

MCM is multi chip module

APRS is something like that, popular with hams.
