Even if it was 50/50 it is kinda too blatant how the creators of this video pushed the guy aside and gave 90% of the credit to the girl, showering her with praise endlessly. I get that women had a rather difficult life in many ways in the past, and in some ways still in the modern world, but taking credit away from a good man to a woman to equalize the world is just not the way to go.

      For a starter "those people" are educated, do not commit a crime crossing the border illegally, want to contribute to society and become citizens. That kind of people are always welcomed and do not fear a wall. Most Americans of latin descent living _legally_ in the US are in favor of the wall, even illegal ones who are honest too. Every single criminal entering from abroad casts a dark shadow on the innocent. The wall is not more discriminatory than you having a door with a lock in your house or your car. So way do you lock your doors??? Why do you have passwords?
      Second, if you mean "people of color" are so advanced, intelligent, invent everything, and therefor should be let in by the masses no questions asked. Why exactly why don't they do sh*t in their own countries? Why do they always need to come to the US/Europe, get an education for free, receive welfare and even be assigned a job? No one forces them to migrate to the US. Or do they just magically transform to superbeings when they cross the borders in one direction, but loose everything if crossing back to the other side?
      Third, well if there was such a wall would there be thriving Wakandas in all third world countries, while the US/Europe would descend into the dark ages? Funny how migration just goes one way and not in both directions.....

    • @altrag
      @altrag 3 года назад +3

      @@joeldelgado3641 You're confusing many related but distinct things:
      - The wall isn't ridiculed because its discriminatory. The wall is ridiculed because its a pointless waste of money. The vast majority of illegal immigration passes through existing checkpoints. Its always "scary" to see a few dozen people making a mad dash across 100 yards of barren land while border patrol are chasing them down, but that's still on the order of _dozens._ Not anywhere close to the _hundreds of thousands_ that just lie their way through the official ports of entry.
      - The discriminatory part is Trump's policy and attitude toward immigrants. Calling an _entire country_ "rapists and murderers" is not only horrific but its fucking absurd. Kidnapping children and letting them die in cages without even bothering to record who their parents were is very close to if not crossing the line into literal war crimes under the Geneva convention. The wall is just one expensive and poorly-thought-out aspect of Trump's overall awful and inhumane immigration policy. And no, he was never particularly concerned with distinguishing illegal immigrants from legal ones. He wasn't even particularly concerned with distinguishing full-blooded born-in-the-USA Americans who happened to be of Latino descent.
      Trump's policy was pure racism, plain and simple. It failed to address the real problems with illegal immigration in any meaningful way while simultaneously being a horrific attack on legal immigration. And not only that, but it was based entirely on country-of-origin. There was never any crackdowns on illegal Canadians or Europeans, of which there are plenty. Gee I wonder what the main difference is between an undocumented Canadian and an undocumented Mexican.
      > if you mean "people of color" are so advanced, intelligent, invent everything,
      Nobody means that. Why do you racist fools think that "people of color are just as good as white people" is the same as "white people are the worst at everything"? That's not what anyone has ever said, except Tucker Carlson. The real question is, why are you racists so insecure that you think anything short of "white power" is a personal assault on your identity?
      > No one forces them to migrate to the US.
      Geography does. Of course here you're taking a page from Trump's racist playbook and conflating immigration with refugees. Immigrants who just want a better life can (and do) scout around for their best opportunity. Refugees just go to the closest place they can find that they feel is safer than the place they left. The US is the closest "safe" nation to most of Central America so that's where Central American refugees go. Europe has to deal with refugees from the Middle East and northern Africa for the same reason.
      Are you really comparing Europe having to deal with 5 million Syrian refugees against America having to deal with a couple thousand people in a caravan? But of course why would you bother thinking about anyone but yourself, so you probably don't even know/remember that the Syrian refugee crisis even happened never mind the fact that there are still _millions_ of displaced Syrians out there.
      > Funny how migration just goes one way and not in both directions
      Yeah funny how people want a better life for themselves rather than a worse life. But give it 100 years. Africa is rapidly developing while America is crumbling. If Trumpism comes back and takes over on a longer term basis than one single presidential term, its entirely plausible that 100 years from now Americans will be wanting to emigrate to Ethiopia for a better life.
      (Well OK maybe not because climate change likely means pretty much all nations as we currently know them will be redefined over the next century, but that's a whole other discussion so I'll let you ponder yet another way Trump did his best to fuck everything up.)

      It's not a story about radio communication in general, it's a story about FHSS in particular. But they're also incorrect in the title, since FHSS is not used in WiFi, but it's used in Bluetooth and related protocols such as nRF51. FHSS is the reason that Bluetooth, although lower power, absolutely bulldozes over WiFi and most other protocols, it's less interference sensitive than them and induces more interference itself.
      It's also a bit weird since there are multiple inventors of FHSS and multiple patents covering it, the similarity between which probably wasn't initially discovered.

    They didn't trial it because the circuitry to make it work would have required vacuum tubes, which are not the best thing to be putting in a battlefield weapon. Once discrete solid state circuitry came along, oh hey, look at that - the whole thing suddenly became classified. Funny how that happens, huh? It had nothing to do with her being a woman, most of the engineers assessing the technology probably had no idea who it even came from. Just because they didn't use something a woman invented, doesn't' automatically make it sexism.

    This sounds wrong. (Dont get me wrong, what she did is inspiring and amazing - proactively working on her goal and ethics!)
    But as much as i (at least think to) know - Frequency hopping is in the simple, elegant idea, with which you can have more devices or more data transmitted.
    *But it's absolutely not the "reason wifi exist"* or even a core element of it.
    Wifi uses radio as a transmission medium. To ensure no other devices 'talks' into your conversation - there are several measures in place.
    In short:
    - Listening for others talking
    - not talking for more than x time at a time
    - recognizing 'collisions' in the transmission if two devices start 'talking' at the same time (like in a conversation when both parties start at the same time)
    - every device on the frequency waiting a random time and hope the device with the least time to wait wont be talked over by someone else, or this step starts again.
    This is something every device has to do on their own, basically behave nicely. Only then will the FCC aprove them for radio transmission.
    In Germany we have several stations measuring the behavor of radio devices to confiscate misbehaving devices. Cause if you build a device to just 'talk' random noise on every frequency - not a single device will be able to transmit anything. (luckily its very, very rare - like, i can't believe how well this works!)
    *To be fair:* Frequency hopping enables to have multiple channels, in which 'collisions only occur within the same channel' and thus reduce the overall collisions. Also with newer Wifi, you can also use the unused frequencies to parallel transmit data (faster wifi).
    *I think the message "Someone in the past invented wifi" is a little too simplified.*
    *even thought the invention was quite impressive for the little knowledge they could base their work on at the time -*
    *I do respect her way more for her proactive, smart work against fashism and her do-it-myself way of life!*

      This is a hard topic for me right now. Mainly because i do appreciate Cheddars work to recognize the unappreciated women in technology history.
      (eg: When women where the one programming the first computers with punchcards. calculating the math for nasa to go to the moon. Where building "Core memory" by litterally knitting the electronics with copper cableing)
      I want to clarify - my criticism is about the wide spread of what she supposedly enabled.
      Wether this is by choice or just well-meant, it seems for me that the report is artifically inflating, what her invention means for scociety. And i think this would be the wrong way to go when trying to work against the old stigma, that women still face the after-effects of. If it's
      It gives space for doubt when the people believing in the prejudis (women and tech/math/science) can look besides the truth and see what what suits them.
      (Kinda like my previous comment *seems* on the 1st glance to try to disproof or disacknowledge their work)
      Also i think this is not nessesary.
      Because women do have their groundbreaking inventions and have changed the world. There may be less women in the past having done so - because they haven't been allowed to. But those who did, showed even more bravery and earned my respects for ehat they did even more.

    • @SomeDumbRandomUser

      I think my problem with this is the polarisation i feel in this video ... or on the internet everywhere.
      The world is not black and white, it's gray.
      And i feel an over-appreciation or "decoration of words" (telling more things on top of facts, which are seen as fact, but aren't) is getting the better of the internet.
      It's what's spreading fake news dressed in actual facts.
      I mean: You indicated that her work was banished by the millitary, likely because she was a women (which is an understandable tought), and then the tought process of how many lives could have been saved when they woudn't have beed (possiblly) sexist, without mentioning anything about the reasons why it "wasn't feasible" for the millitary. Maybe they where just sexist assholes - maybe we do them unjust.
      I think it could very well be unfeasible at that time to be used in basically a sacrificial tech. Radiofrequencies have been created with analog technology and have multiple sender and receivers to switch on and off rapidly. That technology was hugely expensive, and can be nowdays recreated with around 1€ of total costs.
      What do you think about what im trying to say?
      I tried by best to phrase as accurately as possible, but my english isn't good enough for such fine things i want to communicate about.
      I hope it has become clear what i wanted to say.
