This is utterly wild... am I a little smooth-brained, or is this totally unrealistic?

  • 200 Mbps compressed to under 1 Mbps
  • Realtime, i.e: ~1ms latency or better
  • Encode and transmit in <10mW (yes, including radio)
  • Lossless
  • High-entropy input

... if you succeed, just email them your solution - no mention of any reward or Nobel Prize nomination.

@attie I think that this would depend in there being significant patterns in the data that aren't identifiable by typical encoding schemes (eg LZW), which seems highly unlikely but not impossible for some types of data?

Aventon is having a memorial day sale: $200 more off all their bikes.

There are two that I'd say are a hearty recommend at this price point:

  • Soltera.2: Basic hybrid bike @ $800
  • Abound: 2-kid cargo bike with necessary accessories included @ $1600

Save $50 extra with https://www.talkable.com/x/7M4wX3 .

I've helped put 40+ families on the Abound in the last 6 months: it's a great entry-level cargo bike, and this is probably the best deal you'll see on an entry-level cargo bike.
