Network addressing works at a couple of different layers of the OSI model. At Layer 2, computers have a hardware or MAC address. At Layer 3, they have an IP address. Most high-level addressing uses IP addresses; however, network hardware needs the MAC address to send a packet to the appropriate machine within a subnet. ARP is designed to bridge the gap between the two address layers. It is a simple call-and-response protocol....

We’re learning more about the iPad Pro after the 2020 refresh debuted today, like its new Magic Keyboard with trackpad being backward compatible. Another neat tidbit is that the 2020 iPad Pro includes Wi-Fi 6 support. Wi-Fi 6 routers are becoming more common and coming down in price a bit. But up until now, the only Apple devices with Wi-Fi 6 chips that could take advantage of the latest routers were the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro....

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM3BPixFVq0] Drones are a lot of fun, but making them to exactly what you want them to isn’t always easy, and a fair number of them are damaged or destroyed in crashes. Skydio, a startup formed by ex-MIT and Google X engineers, is hoping to change that by turning your iPhone into a ‘magic wand’ controller, reports TechCrunch. Today’s drones use cameras to allow you to shoot photos and video, and feed the video back to your phone or controller....

A Nightmare on Elm Street has gone through some strange transformations over the course of its franchise, but Peter Jackson actually had the opportunity to put his own personal stamp on Freddy Krueger. There have been a number of pivotal horror franchises that have lasted the test of time and spawned enough sequels, reboots, and remakes to reach double digits. Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers have their charms, but Freddy Krueger and A Nightmare on Elm Street brought a terrifying level of surreal fantasy to the horror genre....

Why privacy is important for enterprise organizations Privacy is the ultimate luxury and organizations should know this.

Moreover, privacy is embedded in the United States Constitution as an underpinning of many of the rights and freedoms that we all enjoy. Simply put, privacy is an integral part of life and this extends to the personal information that people give to organizations, with the assumption that the organization will do its due diligence in protecting the privacy of said information....

NVIDIA has thrown down the gauntlet to Apple in the mobile chip power stakes. While the A8X chip used in the iPad Air 2 has so far blown away the competition, NVIDIA has shown off benchmarks indicating that its new mobile superchip, the Tegra X1, leaves it standing. The benchmark data shared with SlashGear were heavier on graphics than hard data, but appear to show that the chip significantly outperforms the A8X, with NVIDIA saying that it will offer “silky-smooth 60fps 4K video....

The News Corp.-owned New York Post started blocking iPad readers who use Safari today. Instead of showing content on the iPad, it gives a link to the NYPost App with the following statement: Subscriptions run $6.99 per month, $39.99 for six months or $79.99 for the year, with no option for single-issue digital purchases. News Corp also launched The Daily magazine earlier this year, the first Tablet-only daily magazine. If the NYPost wasn’t total garbage anyway, I’d be upset....

The NY Times just published an absolutely fascinating piece on Apple and why it builds almost all of its stuff in China. Go read it. Clearly some of our politicians could learn a lot from it. The short of it is that companies like Apple simply cannot manufacture products in the United States. The cost (though it is cheaper in China) is not the reason, however. Years ago, the Chinese government subsidized building cities of factories that can hire 3,000 workers to live in a dorm per day —or 8,700 Industrial Engineers in two weeks (it would take 9 months to do this in the U....
