  1. Watch Fact of the Day: The First Waterproof Watch Was Actually a Pocket Watch!

    While Rolex is often credited with popularizing the waterproof wristwatch with its Oyster case in 1926, the very first truly waterproof timepiece was a pocket w

  2. The educational proof assistant Waterproof in an introductory proof course: Proof construction and learning processes. ~ Pim Otte, Rogier Bos, Johan Commelin, Jim Portegies. arxiv.org/abs/2606.26809v1 #Waterproof #ITP #Teaching #Math

  3. 🚨 #TechWeenieAlert

    “Arming #robots could keep human soldiers out of harm's way, he argues.”

    “the black shiny faceless #PhantomRobot is engaged in ‘free play’, manipulating a bunch of coloured kids blocks. "We need #data from it just interacting with its environment…[and] this is today's menu," explains #SankaetPathak, co-founder and CEO of two-year-old #StartUp #FoundationRobotics

    “The company's first-generation model, #PhantomMK1, which I am shown, doesn't have a battery, isn't #dust or #waterproof and can't get back up if it falls. Its #hands – still a major robotics challenge – lack #strength and #dexterity, and it has no proper wrists yet.”

    I love the names given to these bits of engineering. Matches the capability. 🤪🤣

  4. I'm printing it. I incremented the #flowrate in the #slicer to be sure there are no gaps and it's actually #waterproof. Also, it's printed in #petg for the same reason.
    Very bad orientation, it allows to save some plastic but let's hope it will not fail 🫣

  5. After lunch, we descended on the much shallower eastern side of #Sheepstor and up the other side of the valley. It was quite waterlogged here and that’s why #waterproof #boots are a must.

  6. After seeing the #39C3 talk on #smartwatch​es' #security, I wonder if there are any simple wristband #phone​s for #children or the #elderly available: just #telephony and #SMS (via user-inserted #SIM card) to a few predefined contacts and #GPS for #emergency services. No #apps, no #cloud, no third-party #tracking. #Affordable and #waterproof would be a big plus, too.

  7. Today’s #weather is quite #stormy. There’s a strong #storm today with persistent heavy #rain and strong #SouthWesterly #winds gusting up to about 70 km/h but a steady 40 km/h. The #clouds are thick, cutting out a lot of light and making the whole day seem like dusk. So, it was best to be prepared for today’s #cycling and I wore my #waterproof #overtrousers as well as my usual #hi-viz jacket. Using #lights was also a must in these conditions.

  10. Lilbits: Semantic File Search for Windows 11, Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, and there’s no such thing as a truly “waterproof” phone

    Most modern flagship phones list their IP rating to give you an idea of just how good they should be at resisting dust and water damage. But the thing is… that number is kind of a fiction, because while companies have to test their phones before it can be certified as IP68 or whatever, those tests are run under very specific, controlled situations. And they’re only true for a phone in factory […]

  11. Google acknowledges that an IP68 rated phone isn't actually "water or dust proof" because "water resistance and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and will diminish or be lost over time due to normal wear and tear." theverge.com/news/762773/googl
