ForoCoches can be a “toxic” place, but occasionally they surprise us. They had the great idea to invite Jaime García-Obregón, a well-known activist for public transparency, to answer questions. I was fortunate enough to ask him some technical questions, and I’ve decided to share his answers in the form of a “deferred interview”.
JM: Hello, Jaime. I’ve been following you for a while, and I want to say that you are brave.
A Game-Changing Gadget: Rabbit R1 With my recent pre-order of the Rabbit R1, the AI gadget that was all the rage at the last CES, I’ve had a pleasant surprise: a one-year Pro subscription to Perplexity Pro. It’s valued at $200 and considering that the Rabbit R1 costs less, I can say that this deal has already paid off for me.
Perplexity.ai: An Intelligent Search Engine Perplexity.ai is an intelligent search engine that provides you with solutions and not just search results.
Last January 19, 2024, we had one of the most anticipated sessions of the year by all the members that are part of the EDIAE MBA: the selection of projects for the Master’s Thesis (TFM).
It was the first time I was involved in this particular and important class and I was lucky enough to have the great Alberto Sánchez accompany me. In fact, he was practically the master of ceremonies.
Meta Quest 3 has become one of the most popular options for virtual reality. However, if you use it constantly, you might realize that some accessories are really necessary to improve the experience. In this post, I’m going to talk about two that I consider essential.
Battery and Ergonomics First, let’s talk about the battery. With frequent use, you’ll notice that its duration is limited. It seems one option is to use a long USB-C cable, but this can be uncomfortable if you move around often.
The Idea In the year 2005, my studies in Computer Engineering were coming to an end and a final challenge presented itself to me: the end-of-degree project. At that time, the Sony PlayStation 2 was the video game console that dominated the market, present in practically every household on the planet. One day, at my friend Adri’s house, we dreamed out loud and it occurred to us that it would be great to automate homes… with a PlayStation 2.
Introduction One of the most anticipated features of the Raspberry Pi 5 was the availability of a PCI Express port. This port opens up a range of possibilities, and one of the most notable is the option to swap the less robust SD memory card, especially against unexpected shutdowns, for an NVME hard drive.
Preparation and SSD Choice As soon as I knew I would receive the Raspberry Pi 5, I began searching for a good option to install an SSD.
The year starts off strong in the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Recently, at the CES, a new product that has caught the public’s attention was introduced. It’s the Rabbit R1, a small device that bills itself as our “pocket AI”.
First Impressions The revolutionary operating system, Rabbit OS, promises an inference speed that surpasses what we’re used to with ChatGPT. However, after watching the keynote, I have a clear opinion: this year begins with a lot of hype around AI.
I have just finished reading the book Exponential Organizations 2.0, an update of the 2014 book. Despite my initial skepticism, I must admit that I really liked it.
The SCALE and IDEAS Attributes This book describes the attributes that companies which perform 10x better than others in their sector usually have. Through easy-to-remember acronyms: SCALE and IDEAS, they explain each of these attributes and how they contribute to exponential success.
I have created a bot called Proactivify that is dedicated to ensuring the availability of your websites and measuring their loading time. If, like me, you have several websites and need to monitor their performance, this tool will be of great value to you.
How to use Proactivify The setup process is very simple, and you can start monitoring your websites in no time.
Access the bot through t.me/ProactivifyBot Click on /start Send a /watch command along with the URL you want to monitor.
Flipper Zero is a device that has really captured my attention ever since I was lucky enough to back it on Kickstarter when the project was just starting out. Even though I personally don’t use it often, I can’t help but appreciate the incredible potential it has.
In essence, Flipper Zero is a multifaceted hacking tool that can act as a Swiss Army knife for those interested in cybersecurity. What I really like about Flipper Zero is its ability to function as a serial line with programmable devices.
