Some economists forecast say by 2050 over 40% of jobs will require some form of development, coding, robotic, or AI system management experience.

Wireless charging isn’t new at all, even though the iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and X just received the feature. But, one major limitation of wireless charging was always getting it to line up. I remember back when I had my Nexus 6, I always had a hard time getting it to line up just right on the charger, or else I would wake up to a dead phone. Sadly, this is a realization many iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and X owners are about to become familiar with unless the technology behind Pi can save the day.

Nearly a year ago, Fabriq hit the scene as one of the first third-party Alexa speakers on the market. While its Echo Dot competitor offered some intriguing features, it never really took off. Fast forward to today and Fabriq has returned with a larger version called the ‘Chorus’ that may grab the attention of those looking for an alternative to Amazon’s in-house speakers.

One big improvement over the original version is the inclusion of far-field microphones. Unlike the previous iteration that required a press of a button to activate Alexa voice services, today’s new model operates just like Amazon’s own speakers. Fabriq also includes a unique wireless charging system that allows Chorus to go just about anywhere…
