We offer you a selection of headphones to listen to music wireless from anywhere in the house

Posted on by Oliver

The good weather arrives, it is certain that in more than a moment you want to go out on the balcony or the terrace of the house and listen to music while letting the sun be with you. A paradisiacal scene that breaks when you move and you have to deal with the cable of the headphones that you use.

And is that a very good option is to make us with a wireless headset. The lack of cables thanks to connectivity is a plus and in fact, we have already seen alternatives of earphones in ear to be able to use without almost noticing that we carry them. On this occasion, we opted for heavier models but also more comfortable to wear that can be interesting to spend leisure time in the months to come while listening to our favorite music.

Kuri

Kuri is a robot for the home, the first of an army that will conquer our halls

Posted on by Oliver

We have talked on many occasions about personal assistants. Cortana, Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant, Viki, Bixby … It is only the first step of an evolution in which we do not pass from the embryonic stage. They assist us, but nothing more. We bring us buying or we close the paper from the kitchen.

And it is that this seems like science fiction (today no longer as much as a few years ago) is something increasingly closer. A concept in which artificial intelligence increasingly offers more surprising results (awesome video) and the brands and companies have fixed their goals here not too long. One is Bosch, who in his bid for the Internet of Things want to go home with Kuri. Continue reading “Kuri is a robot for the home, the first of an army that will conquer our halls” →

In search of interplanetary GPS: NASA projects a space navigator with the precision of an atomic clock

Posted on by Oliver

I am convinced that the main problem of going to Mars or travel the solar system is that, out there, no WiFi or GPS. Things as seemingly simple as knowing where a probe is or being able to communicate with it become technological challenges of the first order in space.

The funny thing is that a technology that takes us a little more than a century, x-rays, can be the answer to all our space problems. With technologies based on them, we could transmit gigabits per second through the solar system and even create the ultimate interstellar navigation system. And it’s not just a theory, now the NASA Goddard Center prepares for the first demonstration of this technology in space.

Slack vs Facebook vs Microsoft Workplace Teams: Who will win the battle of team management?

Posted on by Oliver

Slack has created a reputation in recent years as one of the best communication tools for teams. But other tech giants do not seem willing to let them take all the cake in this field. In early October Facebook launched Workplace and yesterday was the turn of Microsoft to announce the arrival of Teams to Office 365.

Workplace seeks to bring to teams a kind of mini-Facebook designed to allow collaboration among employees of an organization or company. Microsoft Teams is the latest effort by the Redmond to extend their working tools, now with a team – oriented that integrates with Office, Skype and other chat services. It is a good time to make a detailed study on the features and functions provided by each review and compare their offers.

It is usually traditionally moved as far as news is concerned and this year 2016 would not be an exception. The IFA gives much play and we are still with news that has left this and other fairs. So now comes the turn to speak monitors.

AOC and Philips have unveiled its new range of monitors. They are models designed to meet the needs of all users, from passionate about video games to the executive to take care of the small details.

risk of being replaced by a robot

How much do I charge by the hour not to be at risk of being replaced by a robot?

Posted on by Oliver

Industrial robots, dispatchers and even surgeons. Progress in this field makes that more and more tasks that can be performed by robots and almost without the human touch in the process, speaking both mechanical robots and bots at the software level, and that opens a dangerous melon: the of no need for jobs. Especially if you know what a company financially compensated.

As expected, there are studies that seek to estimate how it will affect the expansion of robotics and autonomous systems in general, one of them the performing and the University of Oxford in 2013. A study whose conclusions are supported with which he has taken recently the Council of Economic Advisors of America (CEA), in which report reaches estimate which occupations are more likely to be automated according to the hourly wage. While you calculate how many dollars, you produce when we tell you what they have estimated. Continue reading “How much do I charge by the hour not to be at risk of being replaced by a robot?” →

history of computing

This is how reverse engineering changed the history of computing forever

Posted on by Oliver

IBM was the master of the bits and bytes in the early 80. At that time, Apple, Microsoft and the manufacturers of those legendary 8 – bit computers also blunted, but it did not matter: the blue giant dominated with firm hand enterprise computing, and displays a button. The PC was not called PC was called IBM PC.

Those responsible for that company had us all well bound, and they did so with a technique most effective: although published much of the source code of the operating system that governed those antediluvian PCs, which did not allow replicate was the BIOS code, that system that allowed them to be the only ones to offer their PCs Phoenix Technologies And then came to change the world – our world with a much less dark technique than it might seem reverse engineering.
