Personally I like types. They make refactoring and handling breaking changes easier. I remember there where breaking changes in Rails (or Ruby) once that weren't listed in the upgrade notes. So annoying. Causes so much work, bugs you only find when running the code. One could argue though that TypeScript became too complex of a beast. Maybe jsdoc types are enough? Dunno. But if a framework doesn't support any kind of types? Well, I just don't use it. I might complain on my Mastodon if I'm forced to use it by my company, but I don't think that's what happening with Theo. Personally he comes across a bit strange to me. Can't describe it any better.
I don't mind types. The thing I hate about TS is that they go nuts with it and make very complicated dynamic types of types so much that it erodes the value of types in the first place. Every small change can require massive amounts of work retyping everything.
@@WinstonCodesOn Yeah, the going nuts with types isn't good. But I do like some of the more advanced features in typescript where parameter types can determine return types, as it is used in ORMs/query builders. I like having a typed result from the database even if I only select some columns etc.
i have the same meter... and you seem to have higher readings but i did not measure w/ 5G i was at 3/4 g still... my phone is also older without 5g. i got a mobile router some months ago and need to check this new value (should not be that high cuz these are also not very fast). but i see at ur workspace it is safer now... however still the readings directly near ur devices were quite high i have to say. even without the high mm-waves (but i guess these are not employed often or everywhere?)
My office has a lot of RF I'm assuming because I have many electronics surrounding my desk. 2 desktops, 2 laptops, 3 monitors, microphone, speakers, 6 external hard disk drives, backup power supply. All continuously running.
@@WinstonCodesOn depends how much is wireless. eg. harddrives have lots of EMFs but no rfs.. but the em field is ofc only really near the device.. i had on old lamp here which had a big ef field for example...
Verizon, what a bunch or crooks, never ever get Verizon. They are the worst of the worst for customer service, straight out of India. Slow speeds 20 to 60 mbs internet speeds and there salesman lie and will tell you anything to get you to signup. I was promised $30 dollars a line for 4 lines and $30 dollars for the internet for a total monthly bill of $170 a month. My first bill was $255 and came after only 10 days, my second bill was $272 20 days later, my third bill was $292 and my forth bill was $304. After several calls fighting through the Verizon assistant to get to a real person in India, I was told Verizon never honors what their sales people say. I canceled Verizon and was then charged $569 in equipment fee's even though I returned their equipment. I switched to T-Mobile, they are not perfect but they have excellent customer service and they are honest and clear about their pricing. Never get VERIZON!!!!!
sounds like the other V here...= vodafone... they try to scam u too... i cancelled oit finally after the 2 years. and now have mobile internet without contract (pre paid) by O2 (not very fast or cheap, BUT they do not scam or spam me so far!) :P
That's ridiculous. If AI eventually becomes smarter than humans these won't work at all for them anymore. I predict what will happen next is they will force you to present your government ID to use any website on the internet, maybe even to log on to your computer.
Thank you for this incredible video. If you have the opportunity or if you've done it since, would you be willing to try shielding the router in the direction of the house? i.e. if you put a metal mesh between the router and your PC did it meaningfully reduce the EMF production and did it have any effect on the quality of the internet?
That might interfere with its ability to connect with the cell towers. I don't know which towers it's connecting to. I don't want to block it in the direction of the house because I have devices in here using the Wifi and that would void the whole purpose of the router. In my followup video I moved it to another location that's away from where humans linger so that alleviates my RF concerns. The amount of radiation exponentially drops the farther you get from it, which is also one reason 5G high band signals are not used a whole lot by telecom equipment. The high power signals are easily blocked and have a short travel distance.
I saw you on my feed for the first time. Came to congratulate you, stayed for the relatable story. Really shows that need makes the motivation to learn something like programming. A pushback though, you got fired because you went of on your boss, not because he was an idiot (although he might have been).
That was not a good experience. The retiring CFO gave him a blank check to hire a scrum team when he didn't have a project. He just wanted friends to hang out with in the office. I heard that not long after he got rid of me the rest of the team either quit or were laid off.
Check out this playlist I made which is the closest thing I've got to an overview. But yes, a current more linear step by step guide would probably be a good series. I just need to find the time to make it! ru-vid.com/group/PLHm4nc4NJPC2PkM3EbclzS1mwXtnrPqwK
@@WinstonCodesOn I watched it already :) I agree we need step by step Rails project that cover different topics so we can learn in a step by step series the skills that we will face in the market, I hope you find the time, many thanks.
You talk about AT&T in comparison with Verizon, I use Comcast and planning to switch over to Verizon due to a better pricing. Are the specs of AT&T and Comcast, the same? Great info.
The AT&T I had was DSL over copper wire (traditionally land line phone service). The Verizon is entirely a wireless connection to a cell tower. Different technologies
Correct. SSL only protects the communications between you and the server through encryption. You can still visit the wrong website and mistakenly share your personal data.
I signed up for the Verizon 5G Home Internet service back in December 2023, and in my case, the promotion offered (for 100 mbps download and 10 mbps upload speed) was receiving a Verizon e-card (gift card) in the amount of $50.00 and also an Amazon e-card in the amount of $50.00. I received both e-cards in a timely manner, and easily found out on the Verizon site that the Verizon e-card could be applied to my bill, which was $50.00. Did that. Piece of cake. Free month, yay. *Not sure why you said you could only use your e-card in the amount of $200.00 to buy stuff specifically from Verizon and not apply that to your bill, unless I am missing something here. So far, my service has been acceptable for my Internet needs, except for one recurring problem. I do a speed test randomly, and sometimes, a few times a month, I notice that my download speed has been lowered 50% or so but the upload speed is unaffected. Apparently, the 5G 'sugar cube' gateway changes over to the 4G LTE back-up system, which is fine 'n dandy, but does not change back to the 5G service and the expected download speed, unless I unplug the gateway, wait several seconds, plug it back in, and then wait for that glorious steady white light to appear. Added note: I get e-mails from Verizon regarding billing BUT I also keep getting a pre-printed notice in the mail about being unable to text me (which could jeopardize autopay and lose the $10.00 per month discount). Autopay and paperless billing gets auto-toggled off and I have to toggle them back on every month. Very frustrating and annoying for sure. The 5G gateway, since it works on the Verizon celluar service, has it very own cell phone number, and DUH, it can not receive texts. When I try to change that number online to my cell phone number (my cell phone uses Tracfone service that uses Verizon's towers), there is currently no way to do so and Verizon has not been of any help at all (they seem clueless) as to how to rectify the problem.
I bought Verizon 5G Home internet yesterday. This issue of 5G radiation exposure was in the back of my mind. I hope you are right that the levels stay low.
We've used a distiller for about 30 years (2 different ones). It takes about 5 to 6 hours to distill. Every couple of months you fill the distiller with white vinegar and let it sit for several hours. Then all the hard deposits clean out easily. I save the used vinegar and use it again a few times. Then I put the well used vinegar to sit in the toilet to clean out calcium deposits. Our water tastes fine. We don't use the charcoal filter. I'm 75 and never been to the ER, never hospitalized, never had surgery, and never have broken a bone.
over here it worked adding @import 'bootstrap-icons/font/bootstrap-icons' to application.scss and then make it available with Rails.root.join("node_modules/bootstrap-icons/font")
I had my 5 home internet taken away from me without notice. All of a sudden after 2 years with it, Verizon tells me it's not available at my address because they don't have a slot for me. They only have a limited number of slots and I guess they decided my slot should be given to someone else. Idk how this stuff works. All I know is my line for my home internet was deactivated without any notice.
I recently switched from AT&T DSL to the Verizon Home Internet. On the plus side for Verizon, you can take the white box and plug it in anywhere there is a Verizon signal. If you have a second home, a vacation or hunting cabin, a hotel, a vacant rental you're doing work on, or even to your job. Say you're a security guard in a guardshack and there's no Wi-Fi provided, if there's electricity u can bring the Verizon white box, plug it in and ur good to go. You wouldn't do that with a DSL router. I've considered picking up at 12v dc adapter that converts to 110 and plugs into a car's cigarette lighter or charger outlet. With all the warnings about free WiFi like Starbucks or McD's, why not?
Try passthrough mode it's bridge mode so you can connect to your router, and your Verizon will work perfectly if you have any issues you can factory reset your gateway and start over if you make any mistakes.
I’m just curious if you ran a cycle of water Through a reverse osmosis countertop filter and then a cycle through a water distiller would that have any benefit or a waste of time?
@@petehboy2 Wifi 6? As I show in my video, Ethernet is the best. Wifi 6 gets you up to the 300Mbps download speed of the outside internet, but network transfers within the local network are not as fast as having both computers connected via Ethernet. Slightly more lag too on Wifi 6 vs Ethernet. I would have kept he box in the room with the Ethernet cables connected, but I had concerns about the health effects of RF radiation.
After seeing this video, I was kind of relieved that I could not buy this, being from Canada. I personally would have paid more if it was better manufactured and key elements like remote and USB power source. At best this should be around the $300.00 range. 1. Disappointed with the stand. 2. Screw hole could have been made into docking ports. 3. Light bleeding though poorly finished product. 4. Weathering was poorly done by manufacture.
if you angled the panels with the sun you would charge it up faster you have to chase the sun of course you are only getting 5% a hour and you need at least two panels hooked up at the same time this is a joke
@@WinstonCodesOn in a realistic situation I would not leave a 1000 dollar generator and two panels for it in my yard without being there so someone can walk up and just take it and I would be micro managing it with the sun dude because that is the best way to get it charged with the solar panels just telling you I would not leave it alone for a minute just asking for it to be stolen
unless your router is putting out 1000+ watts and your house is a faraday cage to keep the rf emissions inside or your standing next to the cell tower there isn't anything to worry about
I'd suggest putting the router box in a different location, probably closer to a window and higher elevation if you can. If you live in an apartment building there might be a lot of interference with the signal.
Informative video. Have you ever used your meter to measure radiation from a 4G phone v. 5G phone? Just curious. In the end it doesn't matter because eventually they'll turn off 4G anyway.
