What are your experiences of neobanks for business accounts in the UK? I'm looking for something that will make managing expenses/VAT returns automatic, hopefully connects to Zero or Wave via a real API (and not Yodlee) and is FCS

I think that could be really interesting. Ears/brain are very good at localising sound, but normal headphones don't really work well for this. Ossic raised $2.7m on Kickstarter to do something similar but failed to deliver, I'

unless you're specifically recording ambisonic audio to go with 360 videos or VR content I think you're fine with the H2n. The main difference with H3-VR is the 6-degree gyro for aligning the soundfield correctly with the 360 vide

They are not hard to diy, 4 electret capsules like Primo EM184. But by the time you've built the holder and preamps, might as well spend $300 on the Zoom H3-VR. I don't think they have much use outside VR - you basically need head

I think Manolo's work looks great, but I also think a lot of demoscene work is an amazing, highly underrated mix of engineering and art. Like this piece - https://vimeo.com/25284552 It's funny how a lot of the tim

Nvidia definitely knows how to massage perf figures for press releases. But I guess the tensor cores can help alleviate lower rays per pixel/more noise with machine learning based noise reduction - https://youtu.be/pp7H

I think the nice thing about this is you can adjust usage/payments - like if you travel a lot, just stop paying for a month or two. Not sure you can do that with regular leased cars? I also like the free <5km taxi and free public tr
