I’ve been looking for something like this exact form factor but with a giant battery and usb-c displayport out and PD out to use with a pair of video display glasses like the XReal Pros.
Could have real space and weight saving potential, better privacy on plane rides, and a nice large virtual display with better ergonomics to go along with it.
Would love to at least have DP Alt Mode on the USB-C power input someday... maybe in the next generation. They're always wanting for board space; dropping one set of USB-A ports would give a bit!
If Radxa would slow down their rollout of another new hardware board with vastly different target markets every month or so, they could wind up with a few really well-supported boards.
But as it is, you have to love tinkering with Linux or reading things across forums, blog posts, GitHub issues, and Discord to get a given Radxa board going nicely. It can be done, but it still takes too much effort for many.
idk but sounds like they might be run by designers and also they might be outsourcing PCBA. Just doing one batch simplifies operations by a lot. Not that I think it's commendable to do so...
This is not an informed perspective. Anesthesiologists are some of the most highly trained physicians in a hospital.
Human physiology is complicated and on the surface, any job can seem simple if you have no understanding of what is happening. While a large portion of the time, the surgeries go smoothly, sometimes it doesn’t and it can go downhill fast. In that moment, you want an anesthesiologist that can quickly and thoroughly think through a patients medical history, what drugs they’re on at home, the current surgery, variant anatomy, what drugs they’ve given so far, etc to decide on the correct next drug to give or action to take. That takes training and experience.
Physician salaries are a driver, but the far bigger portion lies with insurance’s take, and the administrative costs required to respond to insurance shenanigans.
It calculates US's spending on healthcare to be 87% higher than "Comparable Country Average", and attributes only a 10 percentage point of the price increase to "administration" costs, as opposed the report you linked which estimates 30 percentage points.
It would be amazing to have a VR app that allows you to write virtually anywhere in the space and be able to manipulate virtual papers and organize them around ourselves. It's actually a good product idea.
With the evolution of the hand tracking mechanism that could probably be done today.
The resolution of the screens doesn't scare me, the evolution since the first headset from Meta for example has been pretty amazing and the refresh rate as well.
Not necessarily. They could run str.lower() on the password input before hashing and saving the hash. Then to verify the password, you just always run str.lower() on the input before calculating the hash.
Why? I've done it before. This was an in-house program with little in the way of security implications. Forcing the case on the password greatly cut down the number of problems.
Since then I have seen a better solution: Try the password, if it fails try it with the case flipped. If that works it's a caps-lock error, they know the password, accept it.
They're not case insensitive, but they do allow for some casing mistakes.
Flipped case (caps lock) or first character case is wrong (mobile input field) were both allowed. Not sure about now. The article I found about it was from 2014.
That seems bad, like philosophically it feels like a password and only that exact password should work. But rationally I can't see too much of a problem with this.
There's also the idiotic presumption that only their "lovingly handcrafted" speakers could ever provide value. Consider that their speakers are priced beyond what most people would pay and are of presumptuously higher quality than what most people would even care for. It's profoundly egotistical and makes me think that they don't quite understand the space they work in.
