You would prefer the inventor to be basically ensured of financial destruction and disincentivized in the first place, sounds great for society.

I'd say it might be time to talk about putting a pause on incentives to advance non-medical technologies at the moment.

Skill issue. That just sounds like you're bad at inventing things and running businesses.

Lots of places sell unique/novel things that are not patented, successfullyn

Personally, I don't really see the value proposition in being able to load and serve you ads faster, compared to a browser with a proper ad blocker.

I don't know what you mean; uBlock Origin Lite blocks every ad on any page I visit in Safari and Chrome, even YouTube ads. Safari also blocks tracker cookies by default, and is significantly faster than Firefox in my use.

The average user does not care about ads being present. Speed is paramount.

Shouldn't getting rid of all the ads make things notably faster?

It does. Fundamentally.

I disagree. I have installed adblockers on different relatives machines. Without fail, they mentioned how much better surfing now is.

They did not not mind the ads, they just didn‘t know there is an easy way to get rid of them

You are radically underestimating how much slow web performance is caused by the massive volume of ads and user tracking data attached to each site.

None of these advantages invent you a novel radio technology that is competitive with 5G yet unencumbered by existing patents. Designing a modem to spec is the easy part.

When I was in China we saw this on many straight stretches of roads. Just watching.

Yeah, its not like the sitting president introduced 25% steel tariffs and 10% aluminum tariffs or anything.

Yep, tariffs are probably a bad idea. Obama did those too (his economic ignorance knew no bounds). Two wrongs don't make a right.

You can draw a small amount of current from the logic signal in high state and store it in a small amount of capacitance, a low enough power device would be able to operate off of it. There is a class of sensors which use and interface called 1-wire which is ground and signal/power (2 pins).

You don't need a very accurate clock (quartz) for ~100 Mhz SPI. A ring oscillator is just a chain of inverters. If you want to match the bus frequency accurately you can train a PLL against the signal clock.

Not sure what the point is about the pullup, to flip the bit you need only to overpower the output buffers of the other chip.

Cramming it all in a 0402 would be a stretch but I could see it being possible with the right resources. Having only 2 pins would be pretty useless if you can't snoop the address though. And modern NOR devices on a motherboard is almost certainly using the high speed 4 pin serial interface rather than standard SPI.

Scratch the logs, subpoena email records of Pai and direct reports.

What do you do with 8MB when the OS is 512MB+? Adding NOR Flash is normally pretty simple -- No bad blocks and a standard SPI interfaces most embedded devices have controllers for. The high end controllers can typically map NOR flash directly into the system address space.

I was thinking it might be good for RTOS alternatives, a tiny Linux, or (relevant here) something to deal with SDcard problem. Tell users about it with suggested action.

And you said 8MB. I just named off a range at different price points to help answer parent's question. I dont know embedded enough to assess what's needed here. Thanks for tip about NOR flash.

Raw NAND is highly preferable to SD or USB drives. You can at least have wear leveling in the OS/FS. SD/USB are bad because most have dumb controllers and just rewrite a page when it changes. Raw NAND is also consistent and meets datasheet specs, whereas SD you never know what you are getting.
