3000 WiFi radios emiting together on how many channels and using what bandwidth ?
Yeah, all 3000 devices will have high gain antennas and be on the same stretch of road.
Most of the improvement is likely due to increased distance between the amplification circuits and the noisy AC/DC power supply.
I'm not necessarily disagreeing, but the two most important things are the converters and the clock.
a lot of people live in slums next to the rich people's fenced mansions
Sounds a little bit like South Africa, or to some extent the USA.
This article says:
There is no agreed upon definition about what all these nations have in common apart from having a significant population of European descent.
They don't actually move the books around, but they rename the aisles, recategorize things, and generally make a massive mess of it all.
Astronomical knowledge is evolving quite a bit faster than the rest of the library. I'm not necessarily saying that any IAU decisions are correct but I don't see anything fundamentally wrong with recategorizing. Isn't it that a hallmark of the intelligent?
Um, have you any experience with dealing with Microsoft or even read any articles about how it's managed?
Perhaps you're not familiar with spinoffs. The whole idea is to get promising technology and develop it outside of the companies normal structure.
Don't be fooled by the UID, I never commented much in the eraly days and I lost my first (unused) account. Over the thirteen years I've perused these pages I've come to know Microsoft well.
With regard to Apple, Microsoft will ALWAYS fail at this contest
Microsoft will eventually split, or at least begin creating spinoffs with separate governance. Small agile units backed by all that research and cash could be very very disruptive.
So build in some redundancy when you make valves.
LOL...another valve in a spacecraft is really going to help when one is stuck open!
The best laid plans of mice and men are held up in the legal department.
