Can anyone else comment on the durability claims here - I wear a lot of knitwear but in my experience it is almost never the case that they fail at the seams. Is the cut/sew mechanism of fabrication part of the weakening? (my jumpers tent to either wear through in elbows (patchable!) or ultimately get nicked/cut by something like a branch I failed to avoid).
I have a Clicks Keyboard and love it. As far as I can tell the team behind the Clicks are pretty intertwined with https://www.fxtec.com/ - in that FX Tech staff seem to be involved in Clicks support, etc.
The Clicks Keyboard for iPhone (14) was a great concept, and pretty well executed for a V1 - I haven’t tried their follow-up devices.
But assuming it’s the same team, there’s a history of shipping devices behind them.
(That isn’t to encourage you to pre-order! Just to perhaps contribute some more optimism to your hope that they succeed)
The Micro:bit Educational Foundation also make a web-based Python Editor at https://python.microbit.org which is designed to be a supportive introduction to text-based coding and physical computing with no installation, friendly error messages and device simulation
Did you look at Mattercraft? https://zap.works/mattercraft/ - the team that are building it have been delivering mixed reality experiences across platforms in Zappar for a long time and it's very complete.
This is fascinating. A reminder that being (broadly) right in your analysis doesn't necessarily mean you can execute to turn things around.
They note the impact to the high-end, the fact that UI is crucial, they even had a good guess at 2008 sales numbers (estimate 14m, looks like real was 13m).
I was intrigued by this bullet point on how their Maemo platform could help:
* Cellular development of the maemo platform and the politics surrounding it?
Any folks from Nokia in this time care to shed more light on that? I always felt the N9 was a beautiful piece of design and implementation - just late and under-supported.
Out of curiosity, were you setting out to create something new for stylistic reasons? Or licensing? For the fun of it? From a distance I'm trying to distinguish this from something like remix icons https://remixicon.com
Do you plan to keep adding more icons? How will these relate to the MynaUI Pro plan in the long run?
MakeCode Arcade also has the ability to put your games on physical hardware, which can be a game changer for engagement. A simple game on a 128x256 grid can feel a bit “rubbish” on a laptop screen, but put it on something with a Gameboy form factor and it comes into its own.
Arcade also has amazing editors for sound, sprites, etc.
Looks like it's an "and" in silicon and an "or" at boot time?
>RP2350 includes a pair of open-hardware Hazard3 RISC-V cores which can be substituted at boot time for the Cortex-M33 cores. Our boot ROM can even auto-detect the architecture for which a second-stage binary has been built and reboot the chip into the appropriate mode
I'm positing a model where a third party does the influencing, not the company delivering the LLM/service. What's to say that it's an ad if the Wikipedia page for a product itself says that the product "establishes new standards for quality, technological leadership and operating excellence". (and no problem if the edit gets reverted, as long as it said that just at the moment company X crawled Wikipedia for the latest training round).
So more like SEO firms "helping you" move your rank on Google, than Google selling ads.
I'd imagine "undetectable to the LLM training orgs" might just be service with a higher fee.
I'm sure it's not long before you get the first emails offering a "training data influencing service" - for a nice fee, someone will make sure your product is positively mentioned in all the key training datasets used to train important models. "Our team of content experts will embed positive sentiment and accurate product details into authentic content. We use the latest AI and human-based techniques to achieve the highest degree of model influence".
And of course, once the new models are released, it'll be impossible to prove the impact of the work - there's no counterfactual. Proponents of the "training data influence service" will tell you that without them, you wouldn't even be mentioned.
I really don't like this. But I also don't see a way around it. Public datasets are good. User contributed content is good, but inherently vulnerable to this I think?. Anyone in any of the big LLM training orgs working on defending against this kind of bought influence?
We've been using this in the Micro:bit Educational Foundation (microbit.org) to fill a gap in hardware design tooling, and get visual diffs of our schematics and gerbers during PCB design iterations. It's kinda wild that's what we ended up doing, but if you want to be sure your radio layout didn't change at all when you're making a minor revision to a different part of the board, visual diffs are perfect.
That said, next project we want to try something more integrated with EDA tools. If anyone else has followed this path, we'd love to know.
Next can we have them identify ambient noises that need amplification for safety reasons, like the nearly-silent electric car about to run me over, or the bike I'm about to accidentally step in front of? As someone who spends a bit too much of my time walking around on calls, I think selective amplification of ambient sounds for safety would be amazing!
I've been messing around with Q10 keyboards, MCUs and cases but not got to anything as good as a Fairberry - I'd love one or two if you have spares! Couldn't see details for private messaging you, but my profile has enough to email me on :)
How is the software support? I'm using Blackberry Keyboard on my Key 2 and it's pretty good, does that work okay with Fairberry?
The Ux here looks really nice, and I felt like I'd seen it before. It's a bit like a 2020s interpretation of the webOS Wave Launcher. ( https://youtu.be/dcyJLaK4YBI?t=46 if you'd never seen it).
It's amazing for students to be able to quickly get a program they've written in their browser onto a device in their hands that can respond to and interact with the real world.
Also great because with MicroPython and the Python Editor you get a standalone Python environment including REPL that's completely isolated from the PC - schools love it because no matter what the students do they're not going to break the host PCs.
The Micro:bit Educational Foundation do it for https://python.microbit.org/ where the scope is conveniently limited (to MicroPython running on a device with finite flash/RAM)
