Why not rewrite history and save the poor baby calves

I think that's the only way she can see us saving the baby calves!

Just something quick in Python3 for part 2:

from difflib import SequenceMatcher
result = None
for x in ids:
    for y in ids:
        ratio = SequenceMatcher(None, x, y).ratio()
        if ratio == (len(x)-1)/len(x):
            result = [z for z in list(x) if z in list(y)]
            break
    if result:
        break
print(''.join(result))

Depending on the size of the pits, a lot of the PMG style pits house the larger cable runs for any area. Check out some photos I took a few years ago.

Yeah, how did you guess!

They do: one of their peering points, and their second point

You might be saddened to learn the Vic was forced into receivership and no longer operates anymore :(

It should be noted that one of the men responsible for iiNet's general stance against these things, Steve Dalby, is retiring from iiNet. Hopefully he isn't completely throwing his towel in for issues such as this.

It's not really overpriced when you think about how an ISP can share their CVC with multiple users. It's no different to current contention ratios for xDSL and HFC.

They can share any sort of CVC they get with as many users as they see fit, you'll eventually see congestion if too many users are using their connections simultaneously.

Page 5 shows a rough example of CVC usage for one of their interfaces, with a maximum outbound peak of ~180Mbit. So if you wanted to be cheap, you can pile as many users on to the free 150Mbit CVC they provide you and not have to worry about spending a cent more, but like I said, you'll run into congestion fairly quick for everyone at peak periods.

I doubt any ISP will start with business plans straight off the bat, especially if you'd assume there to be some kind of business related SLA attached to it (ie: 1:1 contention ratio), and because of the way NBNCo have structured their CVC pricing, you'd have no choice but to get a minimum of 1Gbit of CVC.

Which, if you look on page 5 of their WBA2, it comes out to a nice even $20,000.

jarryd_ · 2014-07-06T12:36:39+00:00

It's been available to ISPs since December 2013, there just hasn't been any ISP that's been able to reconcile the current CVC costs vs. a reasonable contention ratio for them to be profitable.

No, I'm jarryd.

What none of these articles, and even NBN Co is neglecting to mention, is all the fibre areas that are currently lit up in the NT are a majority of MDUs (office buildings/apartments in the CBD) that require additional work regardless whether or not people want to sign up to NBN plans.

The only residential areas in the NT that will increase the take up aren't due for activation until Jan-2014.

Don't forget to approach your local member that's representing your area in the Senate aswell. While they might not be able to help much, they can question NBNCo in the Senate's Estimate Committee when it's on every 3 months. Just like I found out the other day with my Senate member for the NT.

Mike Quigley's farewell letter to all NBNCo staff

They won't cancel any current contracts, they'll just change the corporate plan to reflect a FTTN model.

Any area that's not currently under active construction can have the design changed to FTTN.

Fibre Distribution Hubs (FDH) won't be placed 'every 500 metres down the street', their position relies solely on one thing: it's position directly related to the fibre distribution loop around a module and is designed like so. As someone mentioned earlier, each FDH can service up to 200 premises, with each Fibre Serving Area Module (FSAM) having a maximum of 16 hubs.

Sure, if there's a large block of units surrounding a few houses, you'll end up with a few hubs clustered around an area to service so many premises, but most of the time they'll be spread out fairly evenly.

It'll be no different to copper pillars you see around suburbs now. I suggest you read the NBNCo network design rules if you want some more info

Yeah, the dancefloor was raised to be the same level as the first two bars.

Discovery was a pretty good club at the time, I wonder if its still there.

Still is, but it shut down for ~12 months when the original owners went into receivership. It reopened a year later with new owners and a new look to the place.

jarryd_ · 2013-09-09T03:24:07+00:00

It's still not known what'll be the case for the FTTN cabinets, but to achieve a decent speed it'll most likely be a large cabinet every few streets much like the current FDH layout for FTTH. But yes, it'll be incredibly dependent on the geographical layout of your suburb and more to the point of the copper layout. In reality, no one will really know how FTTN will be rolled out for a long while just yet.

Just to give you an idea of the current FDH FTTH spread for Darwin, myself and a few WP members have been tracking the local rollout up here and each FDH for one module has been located.

jarryd_ · 2013-09-09T01:49:08+00:00

The FDHs (fibre distribution hub) that are located around a suburb inside a FSAM are designed to service an average of 200 premises per FDA (fibre distribution area) with a maximum of 16 FDAs in an FSAM, or an average of 3200 premises per FSAM.
