As discussed in the video they are not resetting the packet sequence number though, making it easy to match them with the other data transmitted.

They are doing it with the standard WIFI receiver. Currently they are sending the Wireshark dumps to a backend for processing.

According to their presentation they are working on a rust firmware to do everything on the board.


Fully agree. That's the most interesting thing about this.

Maybe not exactly what you meant but it reminded me about the following: When one of our apple servers failed a decade ago and just vomitted out walls of error logs too fast to read anything,the apple support guy we called took his smartphone and made some photos to read and fix the error.


IBM / Hofstede has a lot of studies on this.


My best was 5000:1 by updating the outdated SQLite in one of the companies' products.

I found that we were hit by a bug that was fixed 6 years before I discovered it (https://sqlite.org/src/info/6f2222d550f5b0ee7ed). Sqlite's query planner assumed that a field with a not null constraint can never be null, which isn't the case for the right hand table in a left join.


To ensure that the monkey of a monkey test (an emulated user doing random taps) cannot do all possible actions.

https://books.google.nl/books?id=68BZEAAAQBAJ&pg=PA96&lpg=PA... "Bruce grew the lab over the years from an initial set of seven devices to more

than 400. He said there were some unanticipated problems to resolve over that time. "One day I walked into the monkey lab to hear a voice say, '911-What's your emergency?" That situation resulted in Dianne adding a new function to the API, isUserAMonkey(), which is used to gate actions that monkeys shouldn't take during tests (including dialing the phone and resetting the device)."


Just read an article about one of these in the local newspaper.

They currently have some challenges with bureaucracy, at least in Austria:

Given that it is an industrial facility it has to be secured from unauthorized access, but as it is a field, it has to be accessable to small animals. So now it is fenced with barbed wire on the top but it's open at the bottom.


Not the case in Germany. Photovoltaic installations on agricultural plots are routine, in certain cases (I.e. the plot is next to a motorway) you don’t even need a planning/building permit, as long as the installation conforms to established building practices. Agrivoltaics is still a niche practice, but not because of bureaucratic concerns.


Just because this stuck with me: Viktor Frankl once wrote that meaning in life is not a Rorschach test (i.e. has to be made up) but rather a puzzle picture ("Vexierbild", is already there and has to be found).

I don't think this contradicts what you wrote, though.


Not the OP but I agree with you. Synergy, as cheesy as it sounds, is a happy way to look at meaning making. The dance between friends, colleagues, families that keeps us all happy and together...

I found this essay to be supremely logical and insightful but also pessimistic from a unitary point of view.

My days now consist of finding happy people who are doing things I also think are cool. Like, pappy the Japanese pianist on TikTok. God she's so infectiously joyful. Yes it's a plug for her. Heh. Meaning making


There's a very interesting German (Austrian) podcast episode about this here: https://www.falter.at/podcasts/gerichtsmedizin/20221202/klen...


That was great.

No chronic lead poisoning after all. Lead poisoning started only within ~100 days before his death, mostly caused by medical interventions (lead based antiseptic, lead based medicine) when he was treated for symptoms of an undiagnosed hepatitis and cirrhosis of the liver.
