Murdstone posted:The stack. It’s part of the framework. You gotta have a nice lean stack. That’s what you aim for if you know what you’re talking about, as I clearly do. Ah, so it's pure coding to the metal, setting the rails for the distributed architecture that all the micro services use to wall in the framework that the suite pulls from to average frequency mappings to deliver bit-level encoding quality to users while shunting above average latency ratings.

I’m honestly blown away by that clip. That’s like a “strong no hire” answer for a software engineering intern, let alone a genius that wants to run the engineering team

waffle iron posted:You're mixing up 5G millimeter wave with the broader 5G standard. 5G baseband is an evolution of 4G baseband that more efficiently uses the existing spectrum and channels. It's very much like the evolution of wifi between major standards versions. Yes and no. Some of it does offer equivalent ranges, but thats SOME of it, 5G has resulted in the need for a lot more cell sites to provide the same coverage versus 4G. quote:5G in the 24 GHz range or above use higher frequencies than 4G, and as a result, some 5G signals are not capable of traveling large distances (over a few hundred meters), unlike 4G or lower frequency 5G signals (sub 6 GHz). This requires placing 5G base stations every few hundred meters in order to use higher frequency bands. Also, these higher frequency 5G signals cannot penetrate solid objects easily, such as cars, trees, walls, and even humans, because of the nature of these higher frequency electromagnetic waves. 5G cells can be deliberately designed to be as inconspicuous as possible, which finds applications in places like restaurants and shopping malls.[66] It does provide distinct advantages, such as ability to support more users and provide more throughput, but it has significantly worse range than 4G for most of its bands.  5G is great, but it requires a lot more antenna's especially for their MIMO setup and a lot more cells for good coverage.

DaveWoo posted:Question for the stock market experts here - is it theoretically possible for Elon to somehow be making money off of Tesla's stock price falling? For example, could he be secretly shorting Tesla stock? If you believe in it hard enough, you'll find strength to pull the gymnastics through that logic.

Serious_Cyclone posted:I'm trying to think of a strategy where Elon comes out on top and I'm not seeing it. Depress the price to snap up a larger share and then somehow build it back up? But the main reason it's tanking is that he is on twitter 24/7 showing the world how incompetent he is, so I don't think he has a lot control over pumping the stock back up. Not to mention, what's he going to use to snap up a larger share? Most of his net worth is TSLA shares, he has no buying power independent of the stock price. Even assuming he had something up his sleeve to guide it back to previous highs after alienating a huge chunk of his customer base.

Yes, it's specifically the new, high bandwidth bit in 5G that is a beast of a thing. The chunk that is tweaked LTE is fine, but to the consumer that is just 4G continuation. Only the shiny new part is 5G for the purposes of marketing.

All the Christmas talk has reminded me it's time to watch my fav piece of Christmas media from the last few years - the Creepshow holiday special, Shapeshifters Anonymous. It's not particularly good by any means, but it's fun AF - it involves a support group of were-animals (and a furry) fighting an army of evil Santas, and the whole thing takes place in pretty much one set.

Midband and MMwave are new. Not aware of any US carrier that is publishing much info on their Midband and MMwave besides Verizon going big on advertising MMwave. Most users who see 5G icons on their phone are mostly likely to be using the low band (baseband) and it will be that way for a couple years.

True, again, 5G is great, but I suspect 4G will remain relevant for quite some time. Now my curiosity is it seems like T-Mobile/Spring is doing better in the 5G space and Verizon has been struggling, are they hoping the MMWave will make up that?

I still can't get over that clip. I don't think I've ever seen a boss take that "What? How dare you talk back to me! Who are you???" tone with someone pressing him on details, outside of like a movie where he is referred to as the Dark Lord Every tech company in my entire life studiously encourages employees to talk to execs casually and challengingly, as though they were equals, even if it's obvious they're not

There are probably ways to hedge his position that may be legal for an insider, but not at any level that would offset his losses. And any such transaction would be scrutinized by the SEC, not that he's shown any real care about them.

For example, could he be secretly shorting Tesla stock? Maybe? I don't know which trader would be willing to let Elon make billions in option calls (aka stock gambling) on his own company. That's blatantly stupid insider trader, the kind that actually gets you sent jail. But Elon could actually post himself into the poor house. The big trap for Elon is that he leveraged half of his Tesla stock for loans. The billions he owes for those loans is very real, while all of Musk's wealth is tied up in a inflated stock price on a foundation of hype and memes. If that bubble pops, most of Musks' money will be gone. He could actually end up in a situation where selling billions in Tesla stock won't be enough to cover his loans.

You just don't get the same speed as millimeter wave, because there's less bandwidth.

I'll bet they didn't need a "complete refactor" until very recently, like when they let that sink in. Basically they don't understand the code they have and someone wants to rewrite it so they do, meanwhile introducing all the bugs and problems the code they have already addresses.

Elon's insistence that Twitter's stack is too complicated is the same as when Trump insisted the Navy go back to steam catapults on their carriers. It's the exact same poo poo. A narcissistic pissbaby can't understand it therefore nobody can, and therefore it's bad and wrong. Anyway, my new bet is that Elon's next proposal for Twitter is that they dump everything and turn it into an SA clone.

It's perfectly capable of being run on the same frequencies as previous standards with similar rf propagation characteristics. You just don't get the same speed as millimeter wave, because there's less bandwidth. One of the less talked about disadvantages of 5G is that it operates on microwave channels that are incredibly close to the channels used by weather satellites to measure water vapor in the atmosphere. So poor fidelity in design of 5G components or degradation of existing 5G infrastructure can bleed into those channels and corrupt a significant source of weather data, which could have significant impacts on future weather forecasting. Particularly in the precipitation extremes where accuracy is most important.
