Internet speed tests aren't just for people who obsess over their internet connection. When my friends or parents are experiencing an inevitable home internet slowdown, my first recommendation is always to start with a speed test. In fact, I’ve tested and used dozens of internet speed tests -- the market is pretty saturated with them. Ideally, the best internet speed test is one that diagnoses your bandwidth blues as simply as possible -- no ads, no extra features you can’t make sense of, and no

Apple puts its products through a lot of tests during the development process, intended to ensure they have a long and reliable life even in challenging conditions. The company tests at least 10,000 iPhones prior to launch in an attempt to cover all the bases.

Efficient set-membership filters and dictionaries based on SAT

INTRODUCTION This is a library for building and querying a compressed form of set-membership filters, named k-XORSAT filters. These filters can be used similar to how one would use a Bloom filter but with one restriction --- items cannot be added after the filter is built. So, this is an 'offline' or 'static' filter, whereas Bloom filters are considered 'online' or 'dynamic'. The advantage is that k-XORSAT filters achieve very near the optimal memory usage. That is, they use much less memory th

If you worked with the open-source operating system, you had to spend time in the terminal. Using the command line in the past was challenging because there wasn't as much help as today.
