I recently acquired a daylight lamp through a reward program from my health insurer.
It is the Beurer TL100 Daylight therapy lamp, it has bluetooth and can be controlled by the Beurer LightUp app.
I have HomeAssistant running at home and naturally wanted to integrate the lamp into my setup, so that I could control it via the Web.
During the development of this integration I used some help from ChatGPT.
RTK uses a fixed base station, ideally you know exactly where it is so that you know the exact location of your mobile unit (else you will at least get a pretty good relative position).
With the new chips, Broadcom, u-blox and others are bringing to market now you are no longer dependend on a base station to get cm-level accuracy.
Instead they exploit the different properties of the L1/L5 frequencies to infer stuff about e.g. the atmosphere, as the different frequencies are altered in different ways while travelling to earth[2]. The system can thus reduce its margins of errors[1] in the position calculations.
So they are not "interacting" with RTK in any way.
The chips are also much cheaper than your quoted $1K price tag.
Disclosure: I work for u-blox, but not an expert in GNSS calculations
Not saying that it would have worked - but there is actually a tiny, tiny country surrounded by the Eurozone - Switzerland.
And while surely not everything is perfect there, I think they are doing quite well.
While I think it's just a honest overlook by the author (C++17 is just really new), I still think it's funny that a huge portion of the entire article and by extension the argument against variants is rendered moot by RTFM.
Monopoly was actually originally designed to demonstrate the "surprising" effect of accumulation of wealth by a single player (via rents).

I am an experienced and multifaceted developer, looking for a challenging position while stile offering a good life/work balance.
Preferably with on a job where I can work remote at least part time.
