There are a number of compact shortwave (radio amateurs prefer the term "high frequency" or HF, in contrast to VHF, UHF) transceivers. The impracticality is from the size of an efficient antenna.
I have personally made voice (single-sideband or SSB, which is analog like AM without wasting energy transmitting a carrier or redundant sideband) contacts with a 5 watt portable (Elecraft KX2) between countries in Europe, using a meter-long whip antenna and a trailing counterpoise wire.
These radios are incredibly complex weak-signal equipment, and that is reflected in the price.
That said, it is fun. Using morse code to do the same is even more fun.
I would never rely on this for off-the-grid communication, though.
Practically, this take emphasizes my point on repeaters. Each open active repeater develops its own subculture. (That said, the overwhelming majority of repeaters in the US are idle.)
For those interested in learning Morse Code by sound, https://lcwo.net (Learn CW Online) is a good resource, although not really usable on a mobile device.
Lastly, if you learn better in more social environments, consider the Long Island CW Club, which, despite its name, has members globally. https://longislandcwclub.org/
Cisco Viptela vEdge 100, 1000, and 2000 routers have a hardcoded certificate which governs the hardware appliances ability to join their SDWAN network. At connectivity loss or reboot, they are unable to reconnect.
Cisco has no resolution as of 2023-05-10T10:00:00Z.
Persons suffering from mental health conditions suffer them long before they warrant the "dangerous" moniker. The solution lies in substantive treatment of all mental health conditions.
The disparity of care between mental health conditions and all other health conditions is laughable, including in New York State, despite "mental health parity" rules. For those with Medicaid (public health program for those meeting certain low-income or disability criteria), this disparity isn't as severe. However, many young adults with serious mental illness are covered by commercial health plans via their parents, and it is these plans that are relatively weak when it comes to mental health coverage.
These plans do well when it comes to emergency, in-patient interventions, but fall short when it comes to ongoing outpatient support. Much of this is due to lack of participation by mental healthcare providers in the insurance reimbursement system, likely as a result of low reimbursement rates. Why see patients with serious mental illness reimbursed at $100 a session when one can see less complex patients paying cash at $150 or even $200 a session.
This has been exacerbated by the prevalence of mobile app-based therapy arrangements, which, again, are suitable for someone who is reasonably healthy and needs some additional support, but may be completely inappropriate for those with a serious mental health condition.
Mental health care parity laws need teeth. The free market will not solve this.
Is the Oasis performance that different than the Paperwhite?
I personally am less concerned with closed-platform reader technology, and more concerned with closed-platform content. If a reader will let me sideload my open content, I'm reasonably okay with it. (Yes, I acknowledge supporting such an ecosystem is contributing to the overall problem.)
American culture also devalues community college in this way.
The way we break this is by changing our hiring decisions. If you have a Harvard grad (or other private university grad) in front of you, consider if they really are the right candidate. Consider recruiting from local community and public colleges, including public non-traditional colleges. Build a rapport with the job placement offices at these schools. If candidates are missing something, work with the schools to improve their curricula.
I find that an ability to search the knowledgebase exceeds the value of organizing according to a hierarchy. I can see some value in linking/backlinking à la an encyclopedic "See also" reference for discovering similar information that doesn't share keywords.
Are there other disadvantages to an "all search" solution I'm overlooking?
Former org-mode user here. One of the anti-features of emacs/org-mode for certain people, particularly those who get obsessed with tooling, travel down technology rabbitholes, and are subject to crippling bouts of procrastination, is the extensibility and the common paradigm that one should do everything in emacs.
Ultimately, I switched to using specific tools for specific tasks. For example, I found Zotero a much better way of managing research, while still allowing export to BibTeX.
I still can organize in plain text, I just avoid getting tripped up with endless tool maintenance and customization.
What state(s)|countr(y|ies) do you report as your location for tax purposes?
Working for a New York State-based employer is interesting in this regard. NY demands income tax when telework is not for the benefit of the employer. Depending on where you are working and what the tax laws are, you may be paying two states income tax.
Definitely not in the original. Nicely done.
