Hackaday: Laser Doping His Way To Homemade Silicon Chips

Hackaday: Laser Doping His Way To Homemade Silicon Chips. https://hackaday.com/2021/12/28/laser-doping-his-way-to-homemade-silicon-ch… Jim Bell's comment: I can see the attraction, but it would probably be more useful if individuals designed and laid out the circuitry, and the layouts are transferred to a commercial semiconductor fab for manufacture. There, the layouts for many different designer's circuitry will be combined on a single large wafer. These designs will presumably have identical probe-pad locations, so each person's IC can be probe-tested in the same pass. This kind of technique was done about 35 years by a company called Orbit Semiconductor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_Semiconductor?wprov=sfla1

Virtual land reminds me of 90's hacking

Back in the 90's, Mitnick and Assange separately broke into the master terminal of Nortel which was reportedly all laid in in visual blocks on a landscape. https://decrypt.co/89494/sandbox-coo-views-the-ethereum-metaverse-game-as-a… In The Sandbox, land owners can build on their digital space, whether it’s to design a community hangout or NFT gallery, or even to design interactive games. Another way to visualize this is the computer room in " Jurassic Park " where access is managed.

Batshit-Crazy killed a Punk!

" . . . she especially loved her boyfriend, family and friends. In a widely shared social media post Bergman added that Steck was a “super hip lady,” a “badass” and a “punk rocker.” “Light a candle / say a prayer / cast a spell / blast some punk rock for Sarah!” Bergman wrote. Among those that shared Bergman’s post were a few of Steck’s fellow classmates, who underscored her creativity and the “bright light” she cast on those who knew her. https://www.denverpost.com/2021/12/29/denver-lakewood-shooting-spree-sarah-…

Obviously it's everybody's duty to build this once you believe it's possible. I found this tutorial for finetuning a language model used for translation: https://pythonrepo.com/repo/gsarti-t5-flax-gcp I made this empty github repository that could hold some attempts: https://github.com/xloem/techsketball

Cernovich followed the killer on Twitter. And the killer, a white nationalist who loudly advertised his violent intent, was a big fan of Cernovich.

Appeals court rules FCC can open up 6GHz band for Wi-Fi 6E - The Verge
by jim bell 29 Dec '21

29 Dec '21

https://www.theverge.com/2021/12/28/22857852/6ghz-wifi-win-fcc-wi-fi-6e-7-a… While Wi-Fi 6 connections make more reliable and efficient use of the same spectrum that’s been in use for the last couple of decades, especially when multiple devices are connected, Wi-Fi 6E routers will work at 2.4GHz and 5GHz plus the new 6GHz band. That has enough room for up to seven maximum capacity Wi-Fi streams to broadcast in the same area at once without interfering with each other or using any existing spectrum. RELATED Wi-Fi is getting its biggest upgrade in 20 years WI-FI’S WEIRD NAMING SCHEME: Until recently, Wi-Fi generations were referred to by an arcane naming scheme that required you to understand whether 802.11n was faster than 802.11ac, and whether 802.11ac was faster than 802.11af, and whether any of those names were just made up nonsense. (Answer: sort of.) To fix that, the Wi-Fi Alliance decided to rename Wi-Fi generations with simple version numbers. So the current generation of Wi-Fi, 802.11ac, turned into Wi-Fi 5. This new generation, previously called 802.11ax, is now Wi-Fi 6. You probably won’t hear the Wi-Fi 5 name used very much since it’s been around for five years and just got that name in October 2018. For Wi-Fi 6, you might see the 802.11ax name here and there, but companies largely seem to be on board with using the simplified naming scheme. Beyond that, there’s already work on a future standard, known as IEEE 802.11be or Wi-Fi 7. That could further optimize the use of the new band with even larger 320MHz channels, 46 Gbps maximum transfer rates, and more, but it’s not scheduled to be complete until 2024 (pdf).

Fwd: 2022: xNY.io - Bank.org
by Gunnar Larson 29 Dec '21

For clarity, I want to underscore the quality and integrity of working with NY-DFS Bank Applications. Perhaps our approach seems hawkish <https://thecapital.io/article/game-theory--bitlicense-alpha-culture-MQ4NV2C…>, 2021 in New York now brings us to cooperation versus competition and rationality versus altruism. As with many situations in real-life, the games are often not zero-sum, but by cooperative efforts all players can be better off. Bank Applications has been top notch world class. It has been refreshing.
