  • Dart Craft crash lands on Asteroid
  • Scientists Work Out Speculations

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is the largest space agency in the world that comes under the US Federal Government and has accomplished many space missions up until now.

The space organization regularly conducts space programs and tests before going ahead with a huge space mission that will set a new benchmark and as of now, there is a spacecraft test going on for a secret mission that they haven’t revealed any details about.

However, there was a buzz that did not look good as reports are suggesting that NASA Spacecraft, currently undergoing tests, has crashed into an asteroid.

But, upon further examination, it was revealed that it was an unprecedented test to check whether the asteroid could be knocked off course or not.

NASA

In Brief

The grand slam collision occurred at an asteroid that was 7 million miles away from the earth and there’s nothing to worry about as the rock was utterly harmless. The Dart Spacecraft, as it is called, rammed into the massive space rock at a speed of 14,000mph.

Scientists in charge of the mission have claimed that the impact would was huge and would have definitely carved out a massive crater that would have sent out enormous chunks of dirt and rocks into space.

The scientists are also hoping that the collision would have altered the asteroid’s orbit as they feel it will release rock particles and maybe even rich minerals that they can study about upon further examination.

However, NASA would not know much about it as the dart spacecraft nudged at the asteroid for a couple of months. Although further details regarding the matter are yet to be revealed, scientists have high hopes that the mission would prove to be fruitful in the long run.

TikTok to be Penalized for a Whopping $29; Details Inside

  • TikTok App Appeal
  • $29 Penalty
  • Security Threat

Brief Summary

TikTok is one of the most popular applications in the world especially for children and has gone on from being a mere video-hosting service to a balls-to-the-wall platform where users can share pranks, jokes, dances, jokes, political or religiously offensive stuff, along with many others.

TikTok

TikTok was launched in September 2016 in the Chinese market and made its way to Android and iOS smartphones in 2017 at a global level where it quickly paved its way to the top and left all other video sharing apps behind in terms of popularity.

However, over the years, TikTok has been mired in controversies as many people have accused it for becoming a platform for unscrupulous and malicious elements that deliberately spread misinformation, inappropriate and obscene content, user privacy violation, etc.

It has also been accused of having a negative impact on young children by polluting their minds with filth and addicting them to such content that involves vulgar things like nude images, addiction, along with other vices.

It seems that troubles just won’t end for the Chinese application as it has now been fined for a whopping $29 million for failing to protect children’s privacy for which a prior warning had been send to the app but it seems makers paid no heed to it.

As a result of which, the exorbitant fine has been labelled on TikTok as there are many circulating reports that the app has processed sensitive and delicate information of young children without seeking permission from their parents between May 2018 and July 2020.

There are many other allegations levelled on the platform like becoming an online ‘porn hub’ for small children aged between 8 to 10 years for posting vulgar videos and dance moves with provocative gestures and spoiling their future.

This isn’t the only thing that TikTok is entangled in as it has also been banned in India by the central government citing national security threats. The government banned around 59 Chinese apps in January 2021, including big ones like WeChat, Club Factory, Baidu, Alibaba’s UC Browser, BIGO Live, among others.

However, six months prior, the government had temporarily censored these apps when many videos circulated on platforms where young girls danced in sensual outfits along with religious content that was so offensive that it would have created unrest in the country.

As 2020 drew to a close, Indian government had banned more than 270 Chinese applications, which included the huge popular mobile game, PUBG, even though it is owned by a South Korean developer, a part of the shares in the game was owned by a Chinese company.

TikTok

Conclusion

It seems that TikTok is really going through a rough patch as its troubles just don’t seem to end while its owners are completely baffled as to how to get out of the sticky situation they’re in, not to mention certain legal issues as well.

Hotstar Receives Phenomenal Traffic; Details Inside

HotStar

Highlights

  • Brief on Hotstar
  • Deep Insight into its World
  • Concurrent Users

One of the best streaming platform in India is Hotstar, which is the country’s own entity owned by Indians that has taken over the imagination of nearly a billion people that reside within the Indian sub-continent.

HotStar

Why is Hotstar so popular? Why such a massive craze for live cricket? How did the streaming platform reach a whopping 10.3 million userbase?

Nearly 200 million users are subscribed to Hotstar, now rechristened as Disney+ Hotstar following its purchase by Disney Studios. The video streaming platform is now available in many other neighbouring countries of India like Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, among others.

In Brief

There are innumerable popular Indian shows and series available on the platform that is streamed to millions of people in many different genres and languages but if there is one feature that is more popular than others, even movies, are live cricket matches.

In India, movies and cricket are the two biggest forms of entertainment and are almost considered on par with religion with many of the celebrities from both fields being adored by the netizens to the point of worship and, by extension, crazy fanaticism.

When the IPL T20 Cricket Tournament took place, Hotstar received a jaw dropping traffic in the form of nearly 10.3 million concurrent users, which broke the record of 8.3 million concurrent users held earlier.

Hotstar phenomenal traffic

Points of Note

Let us look at some of the interesting points as to how this happened because while it is a known fact that IPL T20 is the most popular form of cricket in India, the fact that Hotstar has got such a huge traffic via nearly 10.3 million concurrent users, the technicalities need to be clear to the readers.

  • Traffic Simulation is the first one that comes to mind and consists of three components- Traffic Model, Simulation Script, and Load Generation Infrastructure. So first you need to create a traffic model, which is tasked by the engineering team that tackle the API endpoints with a ratio of requests so that it can be tested during the initial runs and prepare the system traffic model after keeping all navigation scenarios in mind
  • Then comes the part of writing the simulation script for which you need two tools- Gatling, Flood.io. The former is an open sourced, performance testing tool meant for web applications built on Akka, Netty, and Scala while the latter is a load testing platform that runs tests based on distributed performance with open source tools
  • Technical Insights into Hotstar app reveal that it is powered by AWS Amazon Web Services while the traffic is served by EC2 Instances and S3 Object Store is used as the data store
  • Traffic Based Scaling is one of the reasons that resulted in such a massive surge of concurrent users where you add new infrastructure to the pool as the requests being processed by the system increases at a steady pace. Then there is Ladder based scaling that does not give any info as to how processes are done due to which the team has pre-defined ladders per million users that increase infrastructure as numbers add on
  • Nefarious Traffic is also dealt with as massive popularity also results in jealousy and attracts unnecessary and unwanted attention, which is taken care of by industry best practices combined with white listing so that the servers are not burdened

Pixel 7 Pro New Chipset

Google Pixel 7 Pro is soon going to be launched on October 6, 2022, as many reports suggest and has left users and tech experts highly excited as to what they can expect with the upcoming Pixel model.

The Pixel 7 series have always been a part of the conversation for quite some time with all the upgraded features and specifications that one can look forward to but the latest buzz doing the rounds is that Google Pixel 7 Pro pictures have been leaked in the public domain that suggest that there will be very mild upgrades in its features.

Pixel 7 Pro

In Brief

The features upgrading are few when compared to its predecessor Google Pixel 6 series of smartphones but the biggest change is that it will be coming with a brand new Tensor G2 chipset, which will usher in modern improvements like GPU, NPU, among others.

The Pro model will be available in two variants viz. 12/128GB and 12/256GB storage configurations and will come with a 6.7 inch LPTO OLED panel with QHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate.

The battery power is 5,000mAh units that will come with a 30W fast charging support and both models will support wireless charging. Although the Tensor G2 chipset is the only big upgrade revealed as of now, there are some users that may point out that its CPU will be similar to that of G1.

WhatsApp Call Links for Coming Onboard

WhatsApp is well known for bringing out new features so as to make sure that their loyal user base does not feel bored, which is saying a lot considering the public tastes that change with a drop of a hat.

WhatsApp call links

The latest to join the list is the Call Links feature that will allow users to jump onto a call by creating a link to it and sharing it with different people so that they can immediately join in by clicking or tapping on the link.

It is interesting to note that this feature works for anyone who has WhatsApp installed on their smartphones and they don’t even need to be in your contact list, which is quite astonishing to hear but it’s true.

However, having a WhatsApp account is a necessary prerequisite so that the link can be said to the person even though he/she might be a stranger and not in your contact list, so that they can click on it and jump onto the call.

While this is a unique feature in and of it itself, it is not something that has been invented just now as other services have had this feature for a long time but what makes it necessary to mention is that WhatsApp is a massive platform in terms of user base, which will allow this feature to gain a great deal of popularity.

Digital India Corporation Restructures for More Divisions; Details Inside

Digital India Corp
Digital India Corp

How successful has Digital India been? What is its future? What other endeavors can we look forward to in the campaign? These are some of the pertinent questions that many people continue to ask.

Everything has gone digital in the past few years like digital payment is the prevalent medium of exchange ever since the demonetization of Rs.500 and Rs.1,000 rupee notes in November 2016 that was taken to curb the black money menace prevalent in India.

Digital Payments have helped turn the country into a cash-less economy where most of the transactions are done through Unified Payments Interface (UPI) with platforms like Paytm, BHIM App, Google Pay, and Phone Pe becoming the proverbial modes of digital payment.

In Brief

In the light of the ongoing digital campaign, Digital India Corporation has started an initiative of restructuring many divisions to inculcate other platforms on to its projects so as to implement a well equipped roadmap to complete its strategic vision of a digital medium.

The Digital India Program is a massive endeavor tasked with leading and guiding multiple objectives, visions, and goals of the program. Digital India is a non profit company that was initiated by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.

Its main aim is to support to the various departments and ministries belonging to the central and state government for taking the Digital India initiative far and wide by way of capacity building for numerous e-government projects, encouraging public-private partnerships, innovation, initiating good practices, etc. to name a few.

Digital India Corporation has multiple divisions that include National e-Governance Division (NeGD), Technology Development & Deployment Division (TDDD), MyGov, India Semiconductor Mission, and so on.

Now, the company is all set to create more strategies for housing some more divisions in the near future on the up and coming technological advancements like Artificial Intelligence (AI), Language, Technologies, Machine Learning, etc.

Digital India Corp

The DIC has around 500 team members that take care of all their assignments and projects with an annual project worth of Rs.250 crores and with the newly proposed project in the pipeline that are being assigned to Digital India Corporation, its annual turnover will most probably exceed Rs.500 crores while the team size will exceed to around 1000 people.

Due to this, HR policies and optimal organizational structures have to be upgraded and redesigned so as to cater to so many team members apart from promoting creativity and innovation while at the same time motivating team members at regular intervals.

iPhone 14 Subjected to Battery Replacement; Details Inside

iPhone 14
iPhone 14

HIGHLIGHTS

  • The iPhone 14’s battery repair will be 43 percent more expensive than last year’s model.
  • Apple will reportedly charge $99 in the US.
  • The increase in price of the US market means that other regions will also see a price hike.

How would you feel if you’re facing major issues in your smartphones within just days of purchasing it? And that too from an Apple iPhone? And from one which has been released mere few days back? Here, we are going to look at one of the biggest problems that iPhone 14 series smartphone users are facing.

Brief Summary

The iPhone 14 series was launched at the ‘Far Out’ event with four different variants- iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max, which were of similar design as the iPhone 13 series.

iPhone 14 has been receiving polarizing reviews since its release as the design is not the only issue that users are facing as there’s a lot more than that. One of the bigger issues, aside from the smaller ones, is that many users claim that the battery drains out abnormally fast on their handsets.

It isn’t a one-off example and has been a constant issue that users are facing ever since they purchased the device some weeks back. It is the case with both Pro and non-pro models and even users are baffled that Apple iPhones are facing such grave issues and that too mere weeks after their launch.

There are speculations from certain users that the iOS 16 optimization is to blame for the abysmal battery performance of the iPhone 14 models but the root cause of the issue is still being worked out by Apple although they’re claiming that battery life is affected due to turning on the Haptic keyboard.

In the meantime, the iPhone 14 battery is being replaced and the repair cost will be 43% more costly than that of iPhone 13 series as Apple has made it clear that it will charge $99, which is approximately Rs.7,840, as battery replacement cost in the new iPhones.

The iPhone 13 price was $69, approximately Rs.5,460, which is a $30 increase by the company when compared to the previous year. It needs to be mentioned that iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 have, more or less, similar battery units under their hood, which is why the price should be around the same and not so high.

iPhone 14

The iPhone 14 battery power was reported to be 3,279 units while the older models were 3,227mAh units so it can be seen that the battery unit has been very similar in terms of capacity, which also holds true for other iPhone 14 models as well.

This exorbitant repair cost has completely baffled users who simply can’t fathom why Apple is charging so much for newly released models and if US prices are this high, then one can expect massive price hikes in other countries as well like UK, for example, where the battery replacing for iPhone 14 will be EUR 105, approximately Rs.9,740.

Apple Care+ Subscription
