Que es?
The Weblog of Brett Singer. Bringing the world what it needs most - a blog.

Note: Sorry about all of the 'hot deals' entries (someone referred to this blog as CorporateShill.com).
The deals and things are being fed into Multineedia.com. We will soon move the deals category over to Multineedia so you don't have to read it, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

    Subject: [plateoshrimp] nyc transit networking

    http://www.tsd.org/ieee1473/index.htm

    this is some serious shit. imagine being the admin for the mta.
    every switch, every radio, all on a massive seni-wireless
    network. nuts.

    What is IEEE 1473-L?
    BACKGROUND
    IEEE-1473-L is the world's most widely used rail car network.
    Based upon LonWorks, it is the same protocol used on thousands of
    rail cars from UK to China and in North America from coast to
    coast. It is also the heart of AAR's Standard S-4200 for
    Electronically Controlled Pneumatic Brakes.

    ...

    NYC TRANSIT INTEROPERABILITY
    The world's longest subway, NYC Transit, was the first North
    American subway system to mandate both IEEE-1473-L and LonMark
    guidelines in its vehicle specifications. After carefully
    evaluating several alternatives NYCT selected LonWorks because of
    its open architecture, service-proven technology and worldwide
    support.

    what's funny is that this is a mainstream comic strip, and that's not a very mainstream joke. this cartoonist does that a lot, actually.

    this one is just a bad pun:
