But what I would like to say is that this is similar to what Lambda Functions are intended for And GoLang will be better off supporting Lambda Functions rather that just copy an Java Construct. Below one of the results I got while searching for Lambda Functions in GoLang. http://livingcode.org/entries/2009-11-13_go-language-and-functional-programming/ Cited from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11766320/does-go-have-lambda-expressions-or-anything-similar\ Don't know the correctness of what ever is being highlighted here.

There are a number of resources out there if/when you plan to start a *bug. Make contact with this list when you are ready and you will be pleasantly surprised how generous the *BSD community is. If you attend the Bug BOF @BSDCan you will also get some very helpful advice. Best starting out advice we heard at the last *bug BOF @BSDCan, commit to running 6 months of running a *Bug at a specific monthly time and place and take it from there. Food places can be very accommodating, especially on slower nights. Heck, you chose a good Texas BBQ Join, you may get out-of-staters! Best of luck!

I'm in a situation where the only decent wireless network is at 5GHz and I'm running OpenBSD -current with a variety of older run(4) iwn(4) and urtwn(4) devices.... which only do 2.4GHz. Can anyone recommend hardware (not just the chipsets) that support 5GHz on the spectrum for OpenBSD? Bonus points if they carry them at a retail outlet in NYC.

While bwfm(4) does technically have USB support, I don't think I've ever seen or heard of a wifi dongle with that chipset. There are several options for iwm(4). Though if you're currently using iwn(4) devices, then I think that limits your upgrade options to the 3160: https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-HP-710662-001-Intel-Dual-Band-Wireless-AC-3160-3160HMW-Bluetooth-PCIe-Half/312495865625 Although now that I look, I found a 7260 in the older half-height style: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dual-Band-Wireless-Intel-7260-7260HMW-867M-BT4-0-802-11ac-Mini-PCI-E-Wifi-Card/190897053836 I have a 3165 in my current laptop and it works great on 5G. ~Brian From george at ceetonetechnology.com Mon Jul 29 23:32:00 2019 From: george at ceetonetechnology.com (George Rosamond) Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2019 03:32:00 +0000 Subject: [talk] 5GHz wireless adapters In-Reply-To: <7bef98c9-7ea8-43b6-5920-572cfef00c19@rpi.edu> References: <7bef98c9-7ea8-43b6-5920-572cfef00c19@rpi.edu> Message-ID: <469ed399-3d76-bdbb-3189-aa636677e819@ceetonetechnology.com> Brian Callahan: > > > On 7/29/19 9:49 PM, George Rosamond wrote: >> Greetings. >> >> I'm in a situation where the only decent wireless network is at 5GHz and >> I'm running OpenBSD -current with a variety of older run(4) iwn(4) and >> urtwn(4) devices.... which only do 2.4GHz. >> >> Can anyone recommend hardware (not just the chipsets) that support 5GHz >> on the spectrum for OpenBSD? >> >> Bonus points if they carry them at a retail outlet in NYC. >> >> USB nubs preferred, while mini pci is a longer term option. > > While bwfm(4) does technically have USB support, I don't think I've ever > seen or heard of a wifi dongle with that chipset. > > There are several options for iwm(4).

Nice. On dmesgd? I forgot about the Lenovo wireless whitelist that stops me from hurting myself. Not sure if they rectified themselves with a more recent BIOS update more recently. https://superuser.com/questions/758119/is-there-any-any-802-11ac-card-that-will-work-in-x230 Thanks. g From callab5 at rpi.edu Mon Jul 29 23:34:54 2019 From: callab5 at rpi.edu (Brian Callahan) Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2019 23:34:54 -0400 Subject: [talk] 5GHz wireless adapters In-Reply-To: <469ed399-3d76-bdbb-3189-aa636677e819@ceetonetechnology.com> References: <7bef98c9-7ea8-43b6-5920-572cfef00c19@rpi.edu> <469ed399-3d76-bdbb-3189-aa636677e819@ceetonetechnology.com> Message-ID: <55449b94-6890-fa58-358e-658ad76e4582@rpi.edu> On 7/29/19 11:32 PM, George Rosamond wrote: >> Although now that I look, I found a 7260 in the older half-height style: >> https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dual-Band-Wireless-Intel-7260-7260HMW-867M-BT4-0-802-11ac-Mini-PCI-E-Wifi-Card/190897053836 >> >> >> I have a 3165 in my current laptop and it works great on 5G. > Nice.

It takes some time to accept to do this as it is horrible to from what was there and what we do today, also looks like we are doing more command line now a days. But the command line option is horrible and for me it never works. _______________________________________________ > talk mailing list > talk at lists.nycbug.org > http://lists.nycbug.org:8080/mailman/listinfo/talk > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
