The study paper is linked and seems to say there were 115 participants identified and then assigned into various groups. Table 1 shows the differences in the cash and non cash group. So the control group met the same conditions - they just

You are bang on about having a redundant PLB seperate from other comms channels. I carry a PLB and an InReach when I am in remote areas. Partly because I’m often by myself but also InReach does go down sometimes and I’d prefer to have a ded

Excuse me if I’m missing something, but why do you need the internet at all? Can’t you collect your location with a GPS watch as you run and just handle the gpx file offline when you get home? Unless you’re looking to share location with ot

I’ve thought about writing a AWS Lambda that you POST the comment form to which then adds a file to the git repo that then Hugo can grab when Netlify is building the site, but that seems rather complex and I think it’d take me a lot more ti

This sounds like a job for Hugo, GitHub and Netlify. Simple. Easy. Free. You can even set up a form and get comments into your email. (Then just manually copy/paste into the markdown and commit it again and force a rebuild). I use that

I've got 100Mbps plan over copper with FTTN. Generally get about 96mb/s down and 35Mb/s up. It's great. But I'm lucky, and I get that. We play the broadband lotto, and it's not easy to win. If I move I no doubt

FWIW (and I know this is a single data point), but my experience with NBN has been positive. It's also Fibre to the Node (FTTN) which is often maligned in internet/tech circles for being a poor technology choice. I'd prefer F

For those that are interested, the blocks were ordered in early December by Australia's Federal Court. The court was given the powers when the Australian Copyright Act was amended in 2015. The case was heard over several days, and whil

I agree. I've have much success with Ubiquiti - everything from bridges to really solid wifi in the home. And FWIW, they have recently started shipping a UniFi Mesh product called... UniFi Mesh. I haven't used it so can't rea

I love weather satellites. Does anyone know how GOES-R compares to Japan's Himawari-8? Also, looking at what these things can do it makes me wonder what the capabilities of the military/spy-sats are. I guess I'll find out in

Thanks heaps! It means a lot. Amazon is mostly a horrible place to shop for us Australians. Congrats on the write up/production too. Looking forward to ordering one ASAP.

I love Ubiquiti's products. They're easy to setup and cheap too. From experience, they're also quite reliable. The company's community forums can be quite helpful too. What kind of link are you after? (Speed, distance, h

I was a user of Arq 3, but it was slow and seemed to eat up resources on my computer. I eventually turned it off, deleted the backups and deleted it. Not a great backup plan. So I'm keen to know how much faster Arq 4 was, and in turn A

Have you thought about using devices like the ESP8266? [1] You could probably work out a way to wire in the humidity sensor onto that, and scale it up via a printed PCB. And instead of worrying about GETs, you can program the device to repo

The popup text says "use your fingerprint or notes password to protect this note" though. So to my reading it's showing passwords which are about to be protected, not something that already has been locked.

I don't have any connection at all to Lets Encrypt, other than following their blog in my RSS reader and personally supporting their mission. Just posting this here because of the interest in CAs and the Lets Encrypt org.

Looks really interesting. How do you price transcripts? I see you've got a price per API call, but what if the video is 10 minutes long? Also, I presume you can do audio only transcripts too? Just as a .mp3 rather than a .mp4?

I self host via a Tiny Tiny RSS install. It's got a good reader app for iOS (iPhone and iPad). It hasn't caused me any issues at all. I prefer it to NewsBlur too.
