Bad policy, bad character make bad politics: erratic tariffs, impulsive Iran war, blanket pardons, apparent corruption, weaponized justice, ICE brutality, mountainous deficits, hiding Epstein, abandoning allies and coddling enemies. Hoping for a course correction, for the country and for my party.
Deploying CBRS in the 4 GHz band would be a huge mistake for national defense and wireless innovation. See my latest post on HTF: Winning the 4 GHz Band hightechforum.org/winning-th…
Hey @grok based on my posts, which dictator would I be?

The biggest mistake in modern environmentalism wasn’t caring about risk.
It was pretending only innovation has risks.
Not innovating has risks too.
No nuclear means more fossil fuels.
No GMOs means lower yields and more land use.
No pesticides means more crop losses.
Every decision has consequences.
Even doing nothing.
A Wi-Fi optimization exercise in an Intel Wi-Fi evangelist's home reveals the hidden benefit of 80 GHz channels in the 5 GHz frequency band.
Today's Wi-Fi implementations are spectrum rich and radio poor.

With his ultimatum that Ukraine surrender to Russia, Trump finally wins a prize:
The Neville Chamberlain award for betraying peace, freedom, and justice.
When Newt is right he's right. Putin is playing Trump for the fool he is.
Putin’s arrogance and dishonesty have to be met with determination to stop him from stealing a country. His demand that Ukraine turn over the Donetsk that in three years he has failed to conquer is insulting and shows his contempt for President Trump and our allies. President Trump should release the Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine and the Senate should pass Lindsey Graham’s sanctions bill. Putin’s strategy of talking while killing has to be made so expensive he has to quit. Nothing else will work.

"Things that irritate me about Wi-Fi" including overblown marketing claims, less-than-full disclosure of DFS policies, loosey-goosey WFA certification stds, crappy SSID/PSK update procedures, security holes, and overly complicated administration.

👏 Kudos to Wi-Fi pioneer @ipolicy RichardBennett for highlighting that real Wi‑Fi gains come from wired backhaul—not just more spectrum. His sharp fact-check on Raul Katz’s 6 GHz claims is essential reading: faster Ethernet, not hype, delivers.

It was a great season, Pacers, but you can't beat the crooks.

NBA Finals refs are making me hate hoops. The "let them play" approach to the postseason is simply license to be arbitrary.

WifiForward's economics advocate Raul Katz inadvertently makes a strong case for reducing the use of Wi-Fi in the 6 GHz band.
