My small upstate NY city has a mesh internet provider https://www.massivemesh.net/ but frankly its one of the worst in town. They don't even list bandwidth speeds on their packages because they are so poor. They might be a better option than DSL, but not cable-based internet. I have team members who live in buildings that contract with this mesh company and they are constantly dropping out of zoom calls for unstable connections. The poorest parts of the city are out of range for their mesh network, but luckily people in these areas can qualify for low-income internet pricing from the cable company.

A proprietary, centrally ran ISP with little community input is a false equivalent of NYC Mesh.

The friends of mine that use NYC Mesh often experience speeds faster than what can be reasonably purchased from other ISPs available in the same building. It's a great way to eliminate your internet bill and gain much faster upload speeds.

I imagine you did not mean to imply that Baba Ramdev is of extreme old age, it seems he's only 55?

Seems like this fits in well with Hyundai's autonomous car project Motional, which is also based in Boston.

Seems like this deal has more to do with automated manufacturing than it does with autonomous driving.

BD isn't really about precision robotics though, they are definitely more of environment estimation and motion planning company first, and legged robot company second.

My guess is they got acquired for some research they have done in dynamic trajectory planning, which can be useful in self driving cars.

Agreed. Several economists and think tank representatives commented on this, but there was little content about decision makers actually considering the issue. Maybe a poor subtitle choice, but it is an opinion article after all.

This sounds strikingly similar to what's going on at my school, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. President has a 5mm+ salary and took only a 5% pay cut while laying off (not furloughing!) 60 faculty members.

It's worse than that for Shirley Jackson. as of 2015 her monetary compensation was:

  $945,000 in salary
  $276,474 in bonuses
  $31,874 in nontaxable benefits
  $5.8 million in deferred compensation

plus a 19,500sq.ft. mansion. :|

p.s. hope you enjoy troy :)

Fun read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirley_Ann_Jackson#Rensselaer...

A 2015 Time Magazine article cited Jackson as the highest-paid college president ... for a stunning $7.1 million in total. That works out to more than $1,000 per student at her school".

That's pretty ridiculous considering that RPI's endowment isn't that big, so it's not like she could justify from fundraising.

Bingo.. I wrote the original post, I went to RPI. Dr. Jackson started the spring of my senior year.

It's a historically male-dominated sport, and this win is a marker of a broader social movement around gender and gender equality. I don't view this any differently than recognizing racial breakthroughs in sports. One could question whether "firsts" should be cared about at all in any context, but I think that is a different problem.

I feel this would be a whole lot more impressive if we were talking about javelin and not darts...

Not really - you could just lean forward and push the javelin in to the board.... ;-)

There isn't room for three in the treble 20.

In a similar vein, it looks like there will be a resurgence of complex systems science and explaining "emergent" properties of complex systems.

That would be interesting, I wonder if that will build new nonlinear theories.

The hard part is the NT-like kernel in Rust, not the web-based UI. ChromeOS uses the linux kernel.
