Re:New oscillator system in Zenith mechanical watches on Saturday September 16, 2017 @02:03PM (#15265764)
Only 10 have been made and all have been sold for some exorbant amount, so mostly it’s genuinely motivated coverage of some cool tech.
Probably not what you are looking for, but I hacked this together a while ago just for fun: http://tunetab.us :)
Re:Raising a Truly Bilingual Child on Sunday July 23, 2017 @03:05AM (#14831194)
Yes. I’m Latvian, born in the Soviet Union. Many of my generation grew up speaking Russian and the language of their country (Ukraine, Polish, Georgian, etc). Sure, I moved to the US when 10 but true bilingualism seems pretty normal to me. In my case speaking Russian with one parent and Latvian with the other.
I thought Autopilot 2 was still not on feature parity with Autopilot 1, after Tesla switched off from MobilEye?

I'm still waiting for some shots of the interior, only ones I can find on the web are from the prototype and it clearly wasn't final.
Re:A reality check for virtual headsets on Thursday July 06, 2017 @09:06PM (#14715237)
I don't see this mentioned too often in the critique of vr, but I wonder if the isolation of putting on a headset is another barrier for adoption. While the isolation could be an advantage on something like an airplane or even an open office, I just don't feel like disconnecting that much from reality when in the comfort of my own home.
