After working on theory, code, standards, and serious publications for so long, and being trapped behind zoom for the past 3 years, I needed an live outlet, like this, to stretch out a bit. I miss the high speed interactions you get out of "improv" for example, that's not a zoom-able thing. After the conference Bruce invited me to a musical jam which was *awesome* and also an example of what cannot presently be done well over the present day internet. One day, I hope. It was so great to get out and do this, and perhaps I'll do it again one day or film it more carefully and not live. If y'all would like a mostly serious explanation of many of the problems wifi has (With a fun explanation towards the end of what all OSes had been getting most wrong about wifi until then), please see the 8 minute segment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb-UnHDw02o&t=1550s or, preferably, pass the whole thing to someone making wifi chips and drivers. The related paper is rather dry in comparison, unless you get excited about 10x reductions of network latency across the board in cdf plots. https://www.usenix.org/conference/atc17/technical-sessions/presentation/hoilan-jorgesen - a huge (and still flailing) goal for me has been to get the now standard linux APIs for that into more wifi chipsets than just Intel's, mediatek mt76, qualcomm ath9k and ath10k chips. PS The only way I can think of to express how wireless signals degrade over distance while using jugglers is via CGI, making the balls diffuse and shrinking... Other ideas for how to express the inverse square law simply, welcomed!

"A" for concept, and "A" for performance. I teach juggling (semi-professionally - I'm TheJugglerMan.com) and this was a first-rate show. All the more impressive since the three jugglers probably only had a short time to internalize your script and rehearse the tricks. I especially liked how the initial club exchanges made them look like inexperienced jugglers - using two hands to throw and catch. Followed by the real surprise when suddenly there were all those clubs flying, passed by the three people :-) Thank you for your continuing effort to popularize explanations of how the internet *really* works.

It's very hard to express how fair queuing works, also, correctly, in the context of this talk. There are quite a few other networking concepts that I hope could be explained in this way, the difficulties with doing full duplex wireless using a water ballon to splatter the reciever was originally part of the act but I cut it in deference to the hotel staff! > Dave, you should consider stand-up... :-))) I've been thinking about retiring, and opening up a comedy club in Starbase, Texas, with a marachi band on sundays. After working on theory, code, standards, and serious publications for so long, and being trapped behind zoom for the past 3 years, I needed an live outlet, like this, to stretch out a bit. I miss the high speed interactions you get out of "improv" for example, that's not a zoom-able thing. After the conference Bruce invited me to a musical jam which was *awesome* and also an example of what cannot presently be done well over the present day internet. One day, I hope. It was so great to get out and do this, and perhaps I'll do it again one day or film it more carefully and not live. If y'all would like a mostly serious explanation of many of the problems wifi has (With a fun explanation towards the end of what all OSes had been getting most wrong about wifi until then), please see the 8 minute segment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb-UnHDw02o&t=1550s or, preferably, pass the whole thing to someone making wifi chips and drivers. The related paper is rather dry in comparison, unless you get excited about 10x reductions of network latency across the board in cdf plots. https://www.usenix.org/conference/atc17/technical-sessions/presentation/hoilan-jorgesen - a huge (and still flailing) goal for me has been to get the now standard linux APIs for that into more wifi chipsets than just Intel's, mediatek mt76, qualcomm ath9k and ath10k chips. PS The only way I can think of to express how wireless signals degrade over distance while using jugglers is via CGI, making the balls diffuse and shrinking... Other ideas for how to express the inverse square law simply, welcomed! PPS (I'm quite curious as to how good the vanguard talk looked over the much lower frame rate zoom participants, and how much freezing or distortion of the feed they had) > v > > > On Thu, Mar 10, 2022 at 9:25 AM James Hurley <jamesghurley@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Great talk Dave & MIT jugglers >> >> Dave is there any chance you can share the slides you were presenting in the video? >> >> > On 8 Mar 2022, at 16:07, Dave Taht <dave.taht@gmail.com> wrote: >> > >> > My talk last week at TTI Vanguard is now up on youtube.
