This, I have lived in the Bay Area for ~5 years now and I've seen <5 cars pulled over on a highway since being here.

I received this but never saw it until I read articles about this. It was automatically sent to the spam box on gmail.

I don’t think it’s important to know the absolute numbers but rather the relative values and rough orders of magnitude.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to explain to developers why their network attaches storage has higher latency than their locally attached NVME SSD

> The problem is that radio altimeters are pretty old

Interestingly the 737-200 is excluded from this airworthiness directive. 737-200s are the oldest, still-operating members of the 737 family.

But why do this on the modem, why not on the router?

App is dead for me, has been for two hours now. Their status page[1] shows extremely low QPS for this time period. Their twitter[2] has acknowledged a problem, but the status page still shows green.

I’ve had a few day trips up to Abhayagiri monastery near Ukaih, CA. It’s incredibly peaceful.

I’ve had regular issues with the software. Every few versions of the AP firmware seems to break mDNS. All wired clients in the VLAN will see the multicast packets but none of the wireless clients will. Super frustrating since it breaks Chromecast and airplay. Luckily when I upgrade to a broken firmware it’s easy enough to downgrade to a working version.

Yes, but it's been taken down. I can't query the dataset to see if I, personally, have been exposed.

I visited Thailand about six times in the last four years so this is a bit concerning to me. I really wish there were more details and hope that I can find out if my data was exposed as a part of this.
