Ask HN: What is so hard about WiFi Mesh?

Hacker News - Sun, 04/20/2025 - 1:44pm

I've been burned with TP Link's Deco that is advertised as a mesh but sneakily isn't.

Meshforce also sucks more than it works reliably. Needs to reboot every couple of days and drops requests like hot potatoes.

OpenWRT seems like a logical solution, but you apparently need to be an enthusiast to get it to work, reliably, over a prolonged period.

So, question: Why does daisy-chaining requests across adjacent nodes work so well in TCP/IP, but seems to be so hard and fails so miserably when we move it to the physical world? What am I missing?

Ask HN: Quiz or test you only take once

Hacker News - Sun, 04/20/2025 - 12:56pm

Quiz or challenge shared here. User allowed to take test only once or rather something about the test made subsequent attempts not valid. (You learn something about the test as you take it.) At the end you receive a percentile score relative to other users. I don't exactly remember the content or what was being tested. Possibly it had something to do with LLMs.

Ask HN: The Rise of Cross-Cultural Political Commentary

Hacker News - Sun, 04/20/2025 - 12:50pm

I've noticed an increasing trend of people from other countries, speaking different languages, commenting on our domestic political and social issues - and these posts often gain significant traction. I wonder what this signifies? It seems to have become more prevalent with the introduction of avatar features. I'm curious about why this is happening and what the underlying intentions might be. While profit motivation is likely a basic factor, I've recently been reading about hybrid warfare which has colored my perspective on this phenomenon. This response maintains your original observation about cross-cultural political commentary trends, preserves your questioning tone about motivations behind this trend, and includes your reference to hybrid warfare while keeping the professional, thoughtful tone appropriate for HackerNews discussions.
