From the Intel website:

Presumably this 3G radio can transmit as well as receive. I tried to find more informative datasheets but Intel's website sucks and I couldn't find more on it.

What's the point in having a "secure" HIPAA compliant network that anyone can connect any old computer to? If the admins had just locked out unauthorized MAC addresses this wouldn't have happened. It would have cost them less than 4.8 million to implement even at healthcare contractor rates.

BMI isn't supposed to be used for measuring this stuff. It was developed to be an expedient way to gather data on large populations of people. Its inaccuracies become smoothed out with a large enough sample size. It is always wrong to apply it to an individual and make decisions based on it.

The better way exists in the form of the US Navy body composition assessment which includes the circumference of the neck and waist. Nobody wants to take the time to do that in a clinical setting so it isn't used in the civilian world.

It's simple. Many cheap hosting providers only permit LAMP stacks and won't have anything to do with a long running Python process associated with their web server. That creates an ecosystem where better solutions can't compete against the PHP masses.

I don't have a sugar free diet by any stretch. I do have an innate loathing of excessive amounts of sugar and eat candy sparingly but it isn't by conscious choice.

You might not want to be so quick to write off Python.

The "police", or the FTC in this case, can't do anything because no laws are being broken.

There's also the lovely open-ended cost plus contracts that force everyone to dramatically underbid in order to win them. The lucky winner gets to write their own checks and rob the government blind.

Since these are such high demand positions that can't be filled by citizens, the salary they are paid must surely reflect that and is enough to sustain a single income household right? This move just confirms that the government knows and supports the use of H1B as a tool to suppress salaries of domestic tech workers.

A lot of the problems with cell phone quality is the crappy microphones with a tiny opening tucked out of the way in one corner of the phone. They also inject "comfort noise" so you don't notice the transmitter turning off and on between extended periods of silence.

If the Executive administration wasn't such a bunch of spineless cowards they'd be pursuing RICO charges against Comcast for extorting Netflix and then miraculously eliminating their throughput problem less than a month later.

I know one person without home internet who bought one only to find out that new discs would refuse to play on the stock firmware. Great job Sony.

I'm trying to avoid rebooting my computer to prolong how long I get to keep using the old maps. Streetview is a little better but why do the map tiles take three times longer to load?

This could be a cover story for something they don't want to disclose. Just go back to watching the circus, Citizen.

She's either been heavily photoshopped or she's an alien from V wearing a rubber mask.
