Localingual map lets you hear people from around the world | WIRED UK Google's AI recently made Translate more powerful and capable than ever before. The cloud-based system can now accurately decipher entire sentences based on the context of the language, but while the service will give you the correct words, and for most countries an audio clip of the phrase, there'll still be regional accents and unfamiliar sounds you'll need to contest with. David Ding, a former Microsoft software engineer, has created Localingual to showcase the full range of these voices and highlight the globe's language diversity. Its premise is simple: a world map shows each country and breaks it down to regions as you zoom in. When you click on a region, if sound has been uploaded the dialect and voice from that location will play. The website launched on January 8 and has already had around 500,000 visitors recording 18,000 different voices. David Ding Since the map's launch, its potential to be abused has been highlighted.
Projet TBI-Wii - Installation & Démonstration Le boîtier AS -USB est installé à coté du PC professeur. Il permet d' A limenter la Wiimote à distance en utilisant un port USB du PC professeur comme source d'alimentation. Le bouton "RESET" de la Wiimote sert à passer la Wiimote en mode " S ynchronisation Bluetooth". Un autre bouton RESET placé dans le boîtier AS-USB remplace celui de la Wiimote. Pour l'alimentation ... Le port USB peut fournir une tension de 5V (avec un courant max de 100mA) La Wiimote fonctionne sous une tension d'alimentation de 3V (normalement 2 piles AA de 1,5V en série). Il faut donc faire chuter la tension de 5V à 3V... Nous réalisons cette expérience et nous nous rendons compte que la Wiimote refuse de se mettre en fonction. Dans une autre salle, il a fallu laisser uniquement 2 diodes en série car la tension chutait trop avec 3 diodes. Au final, nous obtenons un boîtier AS-USB avec :

INTERNET ADDICTION DISORDER. Una Review MODELLO COGNITIVO-COMPORTAMENTALE DELL'UTILIZZO PATOLOGICO DI INTERNET (PIU) di Davis R.A (1999) L'utilizzo patologico di Internet (PIU) può essere di due tipi: Specifico: include le persone dipendenti da una funzione specifica di Internet (es. materiale erotico, gioco d'azzardo, aste, ecc.). Queste forme di dipendenza sono contenuto-specifiche ed esisterebbero indipendentemente dalla presenza o meno di Internet. Generalizzato: comprende un sovrautilizzo generalizzato e multidimensionale di Internet. Davis R.A. (1999), per identificare l'eziologia della PIU, ha utilizzato un approccio cognitivo-comportamentale, in base al quale il PIU deriva da cognizioni problematiche unite a dei comportamenti che intensificano o mantengono la risposta disadattiva. Per spiegare la natura della teoria cognitiva del PIU si devono descrivere preliminarmente alcuni concetti. Inoltre, Abramson e coll. (1989) distinguono tra cause: Prossimali: cause posizionate verso la fine della catena causale. Figura 1. 1.
