In California we pay an average of 25-35c/kwh.


cant they track by just ip address? for most, the ip address is quite unique. Apple only disallowed the unique id from being passed around right?


On Wi-Fi, you're going to have multiple people sharing one IP. On cellular... good luck.


yeah on wifi, but if your home, its only your household. i thought cellular you get a unique ip? or does the cell operator hide your ip. i'm not aware how routing on cellular works.


> i thought cellular you get a unique ip?

In the US at least, yes, because most cell providers switched to IPv6 long ago. In other places, carrier-grade NAT is widespread.


CG-NAT is widespread in the US as well, but is only used when a site isn't reachable over IPv6.


True, but in this particular context the IPs would be unique, as Facebook has been IPv6-native for many years.


Won't that unfairly benefit big companies?


Nothing unfair about that; salary is a very direct measure of demand for specific skills


> salary is a very direct measure of demand for specific skills

Only economic demand. Not demand in the more common meaning as need.

See the other comment about H-1Bs being for nurses too.

They aren't going to be offered FAANG salaries but that doesn't mean the country doesn't need nurses.

It means there isn't enough money in the part of the system that pays for nurses to compete with FAANG salaries to get them (and all the consequences of that, such as having to pay all other nurses FAANG salaries as well).

If you followed the chain I guess you could argue that the economic demand for advertising is higher than economic demand for healthcare, like it or not. But that would be a really screwed up way of assessing the best way to assign H-1B visas for the benefit of the country.


yeah love this channel. with the math and equations, a lot of topics are a lot easier to understand.


i used to have this, but could not get my windows machine to sleep when i wasnt using kodi. i'm guessing the latest serverwmc must be taking care of this by now?


Hmm I was wondering how some stores show up on Google maps even though I did not use Google maps to get to those places. God damm Google.


This has nothing to do with CC. Google collects the places you go to even if you don't use maps to get there.

Basically if you go to some restaurant for example and sit there for 10+ minutes google already knows that you are there as a customer and it saves the location.


That is because you have location services enabled on your phone. Google collects your phones location with this on. You can see the details by going to your location history.


Yeah I keep location services turned off most of the time. I also have never intentionally clicked on an online ad of any kind.


> Yeah I keep location services turned off most of the time.

Even if your location services, wifi and bt are off, they occasionally turns on to get your location. In Lineage OS there is an additional setting to not use wifi (when it is off) for location services.

May be you can look into developer options to disable this setting (Please note that even if wifi is off, your phone searches for wifi hotspots to find itself where it is).

And if your wifi/bt is on, your location is (almost) always available to Google. You know it, right?


well i do have location services on, but on my iphone. i dont have google maps open even in the background. i have background app refresh off for google maps too. i really dont see how google could get that info. apple maybe.


Also WiFi

Isn't that just advertising?


sure, but these are small local convenience stores. i doubt they would advertise on google maps.


i'm interested too. always wanted to get into ML/self driving cars


still doesnt show up in my phones itunes. does it support creating events on subscribed calendars?
