The transition from fantasy to reality was far from the flip of a switch. The amount of time, money, talent and effort required to put a telephone on my wrist spanned far beyond any one product development cycle.

Once scheduled for release on 7th May 2027, the Legend of Zelda film will now arrive on 30th April next year. "The team is working... Read more

Нефтяной кризис. Последствия войны на Ближнем Востоке для рынка нефти, газа и СПГ

28 февраля 2026 года через Ормузский пролив перестало проходить 20% мировой нефти. В один день. Цена нефти марки Brent улетела с $70 до $120. IEA назвало это крупнейшим нефтяным шоком в истории — больше, чем эмбарго 1973-го. Пока Трамп во всю забивает твитер постами о том, что все под контролем, нефть скоро подешевеет, война закончится и цены рухнут, да и вообще он так и все и задумывал, резервные хранилища Азиатских...

Но недавно я увидел просто невероятную диковинку: консоль в стиле PlayStation 5 всего за 7.000 рублей... и моя гиковская... Read more

Дизайн гражданских беспилотников: между инженерией и неопределенностью

Продолжаем разговор о промышленном дизайне, который начали в предыдущей публикации, поговорив про эстетику и как дизайнерам удается создавать вещи, которые нам нравятся.
