New safety Tech in CAR for Future

In this Hi-Tech year of advance technology what more you can expect .. ?. Thats why I like this simple concept implemented in Australia’s largest on-road field trial to test and evaluate Cooperative Intelligent Transport System[C-ITS]. QUT Research will disclose details as to how the driver safety data will be assessed at 6th Australian Intelligent Transport System Summit in Sydney. C-ITS devices [Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems]

  has fitted to over 500 vehicles as initial testing which includes Human-Machine Interface software which will display safety alert as hazards in car dashboard system. But as it is told it is in testing face and after examining the difference in driver behaviour when the message system is active like how quickly driver can react and avoid the accident. I really wish to add that if car can slow down as soon as the alert is triggered so the drive get time to react to stop the car. But I am really scared that will this be implemented in much crowed Asian countries .. ? 

‘DISNEY PLAY’ Finally came out face to face with NETFLIX.. ?

Finally Disney had made a competitive step in direct to consumer service, to give competition to Netfix which they were behind in streaming game.

    But for the end consumer the service isn’t expected to launch until late 2019. Disney play will launch with a ‘suite’ of service of subscriber but they are very clear that the content will not be like a every week new shows and movies. .. “Really .. ? then what it could be ..?”.  Disney tells that they have plenty of wind range of products for the service in development as live-action  Star Wars TV show and much more. But about the pricing no exact numbers are been defined but clams that it will going be cost less than Netflix. So lets wait and watch

Pixel 3XL widely bleed in web before its announcement

Its really agitated that flagship devices getting leaks before its launch and goes viral on internet. Many of the sources got the Pixel 3XL images and might be some spec , but it clearly states that it could be a testing unit which was mislead. Whats so ever this shall not be the case for any big companies. When company’s like google can not handle the data privacy of its own product, than how sure we are using google search for each and every day of our life. I really feel sometimes that is technology really making us un-secure  or secure in terms of usage. Just to wrap up I am not big fan of Pixel , but it too has some great features

Warren Buffett’s stake in INDIAN Digital payment system [Paytm]

Its official that Berkshire Hathaway has undisclosed amount of stake in Paytm [a leading digital payment system in INDIA]. It is really a rare deal of the worlds’ best investor who typically set him self a legend in investment who always keep him self avoiding internet firms [Looks inside US]. To the fact that One97 Communications is the parent company of Paytm where Berkshire Hathaway is set to purchase around 4% stake for approximately 2500 crores INR.

 .  As it is know fact that Mr.Buffett will never invest in sick or no growth companies. His investment will definite bring a feather to the One97, but has to wait and see how much that will benefit the INDIA economy growth and in what terms Mr Buffett will make returns on his investment. I really wish I could have also got such type of sponsorship to grow my blogging.

Do what you love ,Love what you do

I hear this famous dialog every now and than from a many people, But this is not really in my case.

I started a IT career/JOB  which I thought I was loving .. and started putting all my energy & efforts to my first project to prove my self and get a permanent role [Their is nothing called permanent job in IT]. 

After slogging of 6-8 months I really got a satisfaction answer that I have be on a company pay role[ Waaaaa !!]. It happens with all new-comers that they really think getting on pay role will be one of main things that they need in their job.

But the reality is we are just a source of profit earning to the company. They really do not care much about their employee. After getting on pay role I started slogging more and more , many times I forgot their is a outside world to enjoy other than the 9 – 9 job. I completely forgot the power of internet as I was working in non IOT projects.

Within a span of years IT world changed. New revolution came in the internet, from basic HTML to Node which made all web developer much more easier and quick to optimisation the web-content and from traditional server to Cloud storage, and very most important topic is analytics and Artificial Intelligence which will really change the world. In H/W side also from brick size phone till blazelless  edge design, from PAL to OLED  to touch screen seamlessly things are growing.

Just to wrap up , never stuck or be in one JOB for quite a long time it is nothing more than a sticking with stinking JOB.

You will end-up with losing all your creative by doing the same JOB again and again where you will never learn new things.

Be creative, every day keep learning one or  the other new things, experiment it with your current role and make it more productive.

Join with me where I bring up a new and interesting facts about the tech-world which may help you to learn and experiment new things.  Keep visiting my Tech tittle-tattle episode for more updates on latest technology…

Hiking about your Hikes

I was waiting for my biscuit powder or peanut is also called in fancy term Hike in corporate.

 .    

I asked my colleague  how much biscuit powder you have got, looked at me and said I expected ***** and it got #####. Smiling I replied, thats why I asked you how much biscuit powder you got.

Why does every one always thinks that they/we get some amount  [‘x’ factor] before even thinking about what really we are for company.  We are just a source of earning profits to the company. Generally Hike/appraisal is just a gimmick method applied by companies to make employees to work more productively in their current role. The more joke used to make employees drunken money is tagging them called PROMOTION.          I really think that these types of strategy will not work in this era of IOT.  These days people are very smart, they analyse about the type of job/work how productive it is, how much it will add the feather to shape their career.

Overall keep hiking your skills where you can trek  for right opportunity to hike your self for better future.

Momo Challenge Please be aware

Hello All, I was shocked when I heard about Momo challenge can be this much scary..!! Not   this one but “Momo Challenge reportedly started on Facebook”. It allegedly involves challenges that encourage children to engage in a series of violent acts that end with suicide. after the Blue Whale Challenge allegedly led to a number of suicides among teenagers across the globe, a new game called ‘Momo Challenge’ is reportedly encouraging children to perform dangerous challenges. This is getting viral on all social media targeting teenagers.

The Momo Challenge reportedly started on Facebook where members were “challenged” to communicate with an unknown number. Once the initial contact with a user is established, the Momo account sends a number of challenged and activities that are to be completed to meet ‘Momo’ [Really ..? so sick of these teenagers are ..?] . Challenges that encourage children to act / perform  series of violent  that end with suicide. If a user refuses to follow the game’s orders, Momo threatens them with violent images[Best way is to keep ignoring], . The account appears to be connected to three numbers in Japan, Mexico, and Columbia.

‘Momo’ is a social media account on popular platforms that use an image of a doll with monstrous features, large eyes and a wide mouth[I really do not want to share it here] to induce curiosity among children, the report added. The artwork called Mother Bird by Link Factory is inspired by the work of a Japanese artist Midori Hayashi, who has no association with the challenge, according to officials.

So friends please update your children on these types of attack teach them not respond/reply on these types of message in social media platform. Teach them meditation, positive thinking, mind games which always make them think these types are just a bull shit nothing much.

Finally I want to request every one please be aware of it and share awareness on these types.

 

Tech tittle-tattle EP7

Pay with your face:

Chinese Internet giant Alibaba plans to showcase innovative retail tech capabilities in new Singapore demo centre this week. They are setting up a demonstration centre at Singapore to showcase its new retail tech store called  mom-and-pop stores. With this they are trying to bring up paying for things using facial recognition and shopping using mirrors fitted out with augmented reality capabilities and much more. It really looks like Alibaba is now giving a tough competition  to Google and Amazon. I personally like the idea of facial recognition which will really bring up a big change in the payment gateway system and helps to close the gate for more online fraud but this can also be side of directly linking our data along with our physically details too. So what would you think on it. . . .?

Walmart closes $16Bn Flipkart acquisition

Walmart officially ended up cracking the $16 billion acquisition with INDIA’s India’s largest E-commerce company Flipkart.

    With this, Walmart now owns 77% stake in Flipkart, marking one of the largest exits in India’s internet world.  This news first came out in 9th May this year that Bentonville-based company’s $16 billion investment includes a $2 billion of new equity funding to help accelerate the growth of the Flipkart business.  With this Wallmart will have 77% stake and remaining 23% stake will be held by Flipkart co-founder Binny Bansal, Tencent, Tiger Global and Microsoft.

This acquisition has turned up some exit and entry of investors which mainly includes Co-founder Sachin Bansal ,Accel Partners and Naspers as well as Japanese Internet conglomerate SoftBank, Entry of new board  members from Walmart will might add up a good growth in terms of revenue. Have to wait and watch how much this acquisitions will benefit to the Company and end user.

Nvidia’s Turing Chip

After a long wait for around 2years Nvidia’s latest and most anticipated GPU architecture for next generation graphic card. Nvidia Turing headlining feature is the inclusion of RT Cores that power real-time ray tracing.

These specialised cores essentially compute how light and sound travel in a 3D environment at a rate of up to 10 GigaRays.These specialised cores will also supposedly allow Nvidia Turing GPU to process real-time ray tracing 25-times faster than the previous Pascal architecture.  Understanding of this graphic card , its design and its working complexity is really tough.  It is said that Turing-based GPU nodes can outperform CPU nodes by 30 times when used for final-frame rendering for film effects and Turing architecture also carries over Tensor Cores from Volta which will enable  artificial intelligence and neural networking for one of the first times on a graphics card-sized package rather than one of Nvidia’s super computers.

WORLDWIDE ATM HACK

Check your bank before your account gets hack or some one has taken part of your cash.. Recently FBI has warned, Cyber criminals are planning a highly-coordinated attack on cash machines around the world that could see millions of dollars withdrawn from customer bank accounts.  A confidential[What is confidential when it is available on internet] alert message has been sent to all banks that the scheme, known as an “ATM cash-out”, could take place in the space of just a few hours, most likely on a weekend after banks have closed. The FBI has obtained unspecified reporting indicating cyber criminals when an unknown card issuer breach and commonly referred to as an ‘unlimited operation’,” which made them to think it as cyber attack.A similar attack reported last month resulted in losses of $2.4 million for the National Bank of Blacksburg, Mr Krebs noted, which involved hundreds of ATMs across the United States over the course of several months. So PLEASE BE CAREFUL !!

What is digital trust? How CSOs can help drive business

Digital trust is the measure of consumer, partner and employee confidence in an organisation’s ability to protect and secure data and the privacy of individuals. As securing the data is one of the biggest challenge, digital trust can be a valuable commodity for companies that earn it, and it is starting to change the way management looks at security. “Trust is one of the things that permeates across the whole business,” says Stephen Walsh, director of security for Northern Europe, CA. Company thinks rust might seem like a security problem and therefore fall entirely under the purview of the CSO, the reality is more nuanced. The best way to build the trust is organisations need to be upfront and transparent with their customers. They should clearly explain what they are doing with data and why, be clear what data is being collected and what it will be used for, and explain what security steps and processes are in place to ensure it remains secure.

CLASH & GO DISRUPT THE MOBILE GAME MARKET

Elyland.net tech company from Cyprus is not a newcomer, it has 10 years of rich experience in the developing the games , one of them is AR game – Draconius GO, which in some opinions was even better than Pokemon GO.

Elyland has launched  Clash & GO, this year recognized as the world’s first augmented reality strategy game. This game combines a fun geolocation game in augmented reality (AR) and an epic city-building strategy game with real-time battles. Simply put – the game combines Clash of Clans with Pokémon GO. Elyland decided to go even further and integrate blockchain technologies in Clash & GO.  Yes CGO tokens are like a superpower that allows you to manipulate the Clash & GO augmented world, making it different for other players as well.Since blockchain token is based on money, it is the most adequate tool for balancing the changes in the world of Clash & GO augmented reality. Even it is said that Ethereum smart contracts [Another Block chain ]that guarantee the number of tokens from delayed emission for the in-game auction will not be altered.This project also received huge buzz thanks to integrated Blockchain and launched ICO to acquire a huge $25,000,000 marketing budget.
