    iOS 18, what did you think?

    Depends on how you define smarter. Calculators perform functions in math. They make educated engineers solve engineering problems faster. But they don't make a 5 year old an engineer or mathematician. They make an educated person more productive.

    Can It Be done

    I don't think that will work. The arm on the 1000.2 backing assembly is a few inches longer than the arm on the Dish 500 backing assembly. That would throw the Dish 500 reflector signal different than the 1000.2 signal. Probably the LNB bracket that connects to the arm will be shaped...

    LOL. The irony of posting your own evidence-free unsubstantiated suspicion and then asking Bruce to provide evidence to the contrary.

    So far the biggest bug I am having in iOS is notifications are not appearing on the Lock Screen. To see them you need to unlock and then pull down. Annoying but if that’s the worst bug I am happy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The backing structure is going to be the same as the 1000.2 but the reflector is going to be the 500 and I don’t know if they work together. As soon as we get some, I’m going to test it.

    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 6/5/2024

    It does make sense to keep D9S hanging around for a while if they can, rather than throwing the satellite away before absolutely necessary. I think that is why they are keeping D8 at 119 also.

    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 6/5/2024

    Slice, you are right! Thank you for correcting me. I somehow forgot about the 10 National Beam transponders on D9S that were formerly in use. Early FCC filing documents hint that it could possibly deploy 13 National beam transponders on D9S. All of the transponders on D9S are shut down...

    iOS 18, what did you think?

    AI isn't just about raw code. There's also the way in which the queries are formed and what's being asked about. Apple claims that what they do see can't be connected to anyone but I wonder given all the lip-service they gave to integrating your various past experience into your next experiences.

    Will this LNB work on the 1000.2 since ther are so many of them?I'm a little confused what the backing structure is

    iOS 18, what did you think?

    Agreed about productivity and cost. I can use it to very much improve my productivity. BUT I know how to write. I know how to make arguments. I know how to summarize information. But my students don't have those skills, or have them in limited ways. And are we helping them? In all...

    I remember the same argument surfacing when portable calculators became popular and then kids were allowed to use them in school. Did I spend all that time memorizing my times tables for nothing? Did calculators make us smarter? No, quite the opposite. Did they make us more productive...

    Not really. it means the data gets uploaded and processed, but is not added to the training database which expands its scope. No different then when I use the Team version of ChatGPT. None of the documents uploaded go to the full database. It is in its own sandbox.

    iOS 18, what did you think?

    Apple is kind of talking out of both sides of their mouth when they say that the AI is being done entirely on-device -- except when the data is uploaded to the "Private Cloud" for processing elsewhere.

    Thanks for explaining it from your point of view. AI is a true double edged sword. The question now is will AI make us smarter or dumber? I am leaning towards the later.
