They're somewhat complimentary. I've got both running along side each other. Wireguard has much better throughput, but tinc guarantees a fully connected network (each node can reach every other node).
I wish wireguard could accept overlapping AllowedIPs ranges, appear as an L2 interface, and take a nexthop from the system routing table. Imagine multiple hosts each providing egress to each other - tinc can do this topology when setup to act as an ethernet segment. But wireguard is so trivial to setup, it's easy enough to run a parallel instance for each horizon.
Because the person with dementia does not have a stable level of cognition. It changes continuously. The article mentions this. At higher levels of cognition they will know whatever the simulation is false and it will upset them.
Spend some time with dementia patients and you'll quickly realize the issue.
Any VR would have to be able to determine current cognitive ability to not cause as much frustration and harm as relief.
Good point, but it's also the case they forget being upset quickly. My father-in-law had dementia, and as he progressed I found it useful (for me) to interact with him as if he was like an X yr old child (without a medium/long term memory). e.g. If X was 6-8 we would talk about family, have a walk, point things out, express preferences, tell stories. If X was 3-4 we would talk about people and things in the room, discuss food, check he was comfortable, smile and be upbeat.
I had much better time with him like this, than seeing other families who were trying to be 'grown up' and have serious conversations. YMMV. Dementia is awful.
Not being able to recognize oneself from a mirror and being spooked by stranger in the mirror. Shadows or even floor lamp in the corner may be scary person. The rest of life can become scary hell where you don't know what is going and where you are. Even very peaceful persons become aggressive when they are confused and scared.
Forget VR. If I get Alzheimer I want euthanasia or drugs. Maybe gradually increasing opiates that take all pain away and I eventually stop breathing at night.
Without NN won't ranking pages by "page speed" simply enhance the benefits of purchasing "fast lanes" near end points (on previously dumb pipes ;-) to those willing to do so?
It sounds like you're describing a Content Delivery Network (CDN). Many sites use CDNs in order to serve content from as close to the user as possible, often from within the ISP's network. This is unrelated to Net Neutrality, and has been common practice for years.
Using a CDN is one way to speed up your site, but there are lots of other important steps like reducing dependencies and compressing your resources.
(Source: I used to work on mod_pagespeed at Google, now I work on other things there.)
Probably not, since Google is presumably measuring speed via their own connection (possibly with simulated mobile network speeds), not via random user endpoints.
I agree. EquiFax deserves complete dissolution as a corporate entity. Much like Arthur Anderson dissolved itself after being caught as the approving auditor in the Enron scam.
Corporations and executives as well as stockholders must suffer. For executives there must be clear disincentives to bad management. Stockholders must learn to NOT invest in unethical companies. And employees need to learn that working for poorly run companies is a poor career choice.
Otherwise, these events will continue to occur and everyone on the inside will glad hand each other about how they got away with it.
Z-wave and encrypted ZigBee controlled products work pretty well for in-home automation. Communication is encrypted between devices.
The problem can be the Z-wave/ZigBee controller which may very well require Internet and Cloud access to "phone home."
I avoid using IoT devices that I can't re-program or if nothing is available except some proprietary/cloud driven device I isolate them into their own little network space, so they can't attack the rest of the network or "phone home" unless I let them. Sometimes, that isn't possible and that's when 30 day return privileges come in real handy.
The ability to trace the packets coming off of most IoT devices is fascinating and sometimes scary. A lot of devices are like the recent OnePlus smartphones that record and send most everything to their "true master" the manufacturer of the device. At least, with a Oneplus you can fix that, by reflashing the phone.... which is not true of most IoT devices being sold today.
Have you noticed that BestBuy seems to only sell IoT devices that will "phone home?"
Roku has made all the difference for many. It has most every streaming option including Amazon who refuses to work on Chromecast.
It's easy compared to most other Internet Video Stream Receivers by offering a WiFi remote (not your phone) and a TV/Cable channel metaphor UI rather than a web metaphor UI.
It works really well for the non-technical and older people.
Actually, they know their customer needs and wants. Their advertising and "in network" offers are brimming with all the appropriate wording and promises. They just don't provide good support or deal honestly so customers are rightfully are fed up, but most don't know there are any options.
If they were not local regional monopolies they'd be losing customers a lot faster than they are now.
The faster we can make cable companies "dumb pipes" the better off we will all be... except if you are a Cable company exec or shareholder.
BTW, if you are an HOA board member make sure you maximize your "door fees" when they come up for re-negotiation. "Door fees" are what a cable company pays the HOA for access to living units within the HOA. "Door fees" also prevent the HOA from letting any other Cable company have the same access for the term of the contract. Since you can't break the monopoly, you can at least lower the regular assessments for your HOA members with Cable company cash.
Cable companies keep tightening the screws on Cable TV customers who in many cases will remain cable subscribers for broadband internet only..... But only because there are no other options in their area.
Also Cable Companies continue to encrypt local channels that used to be on unencrypted clear QAM channels. So that HDTV or DVR that has a digital tuner that you purchased can't get a signal without adding yet another cable box (or cablecard) to your monthly bill for each and every device.
Then customers decide to try an Over-The-Air (OTA) antenna and realize that the Cable Co's have been degrading their local channels signal for years in favor of pay channels and shopping channels.
Next, a customer may get a Roku or Chromecast and realize the choice greater and quality better streaming from the Internet than via local cable and the customer has much better control over the costs.
Also "cord cutters" are making a lot of noise on social networks about what they are doing and how well it works. Couple that with how much "love" most people have for their cable company and well decline should be inevitable as long as the alternatives work and they do.
I got sick of Comcast charging for basic, then ++ for a box then ++ for HD (over and above renting the HD box) then ++ for a DVR, then ++ for a little box in the kid's room, then contracting out people who don't know what the hell they are talking about to (not) fix things when the picture goes bad, then charging me $85 for them to (not) fix it. I'm sick of the horrible customer service too. It ended up being $130 bucks a month for garbage.
I cut them off with prejudice (to use a legal term), and replaced them with Netflix, HBO, iTunes and Hulu for College Football games. I have an antenna but don't use it much. I figured for $130 a month, I could buy 4 seasons a month at $30 a season and still be under what Comcast charged.
Comcast can go pound sand. (except their business internet).
Companies with business models predicated on gouging customers and using high barrier-to-entry as a defence against competition deserve ignominious death.
I can't imagine why people jump ship when presented with better options.
Rats! They didn't provide the old mouse pad with buttons above and below. The "click anywhere" mouse pads are a pain. And who wants to be stuck with only a iCore 7U processor?
If they're going to drop one set, why the bottom set? My thumb operates those buttons and my thing does the cursor position...maybe some people are the opposite.
Buttons at the bottom of the touchpad are not usable with the TrackPoint. Well, you could use them, but you'd have to move your hand down every time you wanted to click. One of the big attractions of the TrackPoint is that you can use it directly from the home row without moving your hands.
One Tinc advantage is that it can run on an Openwrt router.
