Make a Job Application with TikTok Resume

Copy That. An epic line by Akshay Kumar in the movie “Mission Mangal” tells many things. There are hardly any instances when we say others copy us. But, here’s a time again where a foreign company has tried to copy our trend. The social video app TikTok is coming up with its resume section platform that one can use as a job application. An Indian firm, Naukri, already has such a feature, but with TikTok adopting it will surely get worldwide coverage. What’s more there and what new will be coming with this TikTok Resume will get covered with this Exhibit blog.

I Need A Job

Creating a job gets more recognition than finding a job. Remember such similar lines from the movie ‘The Social Network.’ But, there will be some like us who want to get a job rather than creating it. And, to cater to this requirement, you will need someone else who is running a company. Several job portals are floating all around that can help you in landing a good designation. TikTok can also be their name among these platforms. TikTok Resume will now help people like you who just love to create quirky videos and get a fascinating life where you can feel employed.

What will this TikTok Resume mean to the people?

Now please don’t take a stand considering that you are sitting in the opposition panel of the Parliament seeking a reply from me about the number of jobs lost in recent times. Honestly, I am not a minister who is bound to give such replies. It’s well known about the aggravated situation as the economy got shut for some months. Hence, TikTok Resume is no less than a golden opportunity for those who posted about their unemployment status on social media profiles like LinkedIn. And, yes, many of you may curse such platforms with a job section, but you cannot tap the same. Well, it’s all about the day and suitability of you and the company where you got an interview offer. So, sit tight and showcase your best look and best of yours to express why you will be a perfect match for any employer. 

Can TikTok Resume be successful?

Once again, I want to say that I am not Cybill Trelawney of Harry Potter, who predicted the birth of a boy in July. Predicting the success of TikTok Resume is not possible as of now. However, one should expect to raise the question of the relevance of this application of TikTok. I mean, considering TikTok’s niche and outreach, such applications and moves may look irrelevant. But, there’s one thing that will happen for sure: this feature and functionality will push other job portals to add such quotients. 

Intel’s 3nm Technology Will Soon Hit Electronic Market

Some races never end. Some debates never end too. When it comes to improvement, the quest always continues. If you want to know what I am talking about, considering that you are a tech nerd, let me tell you. It’s about chip technology. Gone were the days when tech giants felt it like an accomplishment when they were making chips for smartphones on 90nm. Now they are not even satisfying even for 10nm. Time is for single-digit nanometer technology. Intel is thinking of going beyond the new norm – 3nm technology. This update is absolutely an impressive shot that they have made to create a threat for their counterparts and contenders.

Intel New Series of Chips

A few days back, Intel came with an announcement where their CEO and SVP of Technology laid out the future plans of this organization. First of all, Intel will rename its manufacturing node. It means you don’t have the right to call it ‘Enhanced Superfin’ again. In addition to this, Intel will come up with some updates on their existing products. And, lastly, Intel came with the intent that they will launch more core processors based on 3nm technology. There are expectations that these Alder Lake chips will be there in the market by this fall.

What is nanometer technology?

Yeah, many of you are feeling bamboozled about this new phenomenon. But, Exhibit always comes to the front to ensure that we get every single piece of info about the news. You may be knowing that there are some electronic chips that get integrated with devices and gadgets. These chips contain millions and billions of transistors due to which a device shows particular functionality or niche. But what is this 3nm technology? Well, it’s merely a part of nomenclature in chip process technology. It means that if a chip is developed on 22nm technology, the size of the chip in the gadget is 22nm. This size of the feature is precisely the silicon channel length between source and drain in field-effect transistors. Don’t worry as I am not going to give a lecture on this domain. 

What does it mean to others?

I would like to answer with just two words – a lot. Yes, it is. As of now, Intel’s 10nm technology gives tough competition to Samsung and TSMC’s 7nm. In addition to this, there’s one more giant in the chip technology race – Qualcomm. Reducing the size of the chip helps to add more features and functionality as you as an electronic geek will like to install more sensors and elements. 

Jio Fiber Users Can Use JioJoin App To Make Video Calls From TV

We’ve missed a lot of events, functions and ceremonies due to the pandemic and its after-effects. Over a year, we’ve managed to watch our friends getting married or celebrating someone’s birthday through WhatsApp calls, but being there at the moment has its perks.

Well, technology can not put you at the live event, but if you’re a Jio Fiber user, you can skip the small smartphone screen and make video calls from your TV. Jio has launched a new feature named ‘Camera on Mobile’ for its Jio Fiber users, where they can make video calls from their TVs without even connecting their TV’s to an external camera or a webcam. 

The feature would let users make video calls from their TVs using the JioJoin app, previously termed the JioCall app. The app is available on Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store; after downloading the app, users will be required to download a 10-digit JioFiber number to connect their Android smartphones and iOS devices with the TV which enables video-calling through the JioFiberVoice.

Once you’ve completed the configuration process, you can enable the ‘Camera on Mobile’ feature from the app. The enabling option will turn your smartphone into a web camera to make video calls via your TV. Jio Fiber users can use the same app to make voice calls using their landline number. 

A step-by-step guide to help you use Jio’s ‘Camera on Mobile’ feature:

  1. Download the JioJoin app (works on Android phones running 6.0 and newer and iOS 10.0 and newer)
  2. Download the 10-digit Jio Fiber number and configure it on the JioJoin app
  3. Enable the ‘Camera on Mobile’ feature in the JioJoin app settings
  4. The option will turn your phone into a web camera, place it alongside the TV to make video calls

Furthermore, Jio has urged users to get a 5GHz Wi-Fi band on their modems to experience better connectivity and quality in their video calls. The “Camera on Mobile’ feature will be beneficial for Smart TV’s that do not provide an inbuilt webcam.

Oppo Will Release Smartphones with Under-Screen Camera

COVID-19 has added several terminologies. One of them was ‘new normal.’ Adopting the new norms of life has become a core issue when it comes to getting back to what you were living before a virus came to disturb human existence. This new normal has brought several changes. Even technology witnessed some mutation, forget about mutants that are creating a catastrophe. And, currently, some technical advancement has given space to this new normal. Under-Screen Camera is becoming the new normal of cellular technology. Oppo is coming up with its new generation cameras with its next series of smartphones. For a tech geek like, here we are at Exhibit, appearing again to unmask the facets of this latest update.

Techie Masala

As per Oppo, this new development will create that perfect balance that smartphone users like you always demand between camera image quality and consistent screen quality. When Oppo came out with this announcement, they also shared a prototype for the same to ensure some people can feel it properly. Oppo was working on this for the past few times to devise a solution by removing the notch and hole punch in the selfie camera. Under-screen cameras somewhere are like a solution when it comes to reducing the weight and realizing a dust-free camera capture experience. Hence, Oppo coming on this front will surely give a push to a new set of competition. ZTE already has opened gates for this domain.

Pros and Cons of Under-Screen Camera Technology

There is an assurance that the lens gets inserted into the smartphone’s body with under-screen camera technology. Hence, the screen-to-body ratio will increase for you, giving you a better visibility experience. This lens getting inside also reduces the probability of wear and tear of the motor (for smartphones that have a pop-up camera design). Thus, you add the durability quotient with this feature. But, this comes with a cost. And, that cost is the cost of the smartphone itself. Yeah, such technology gives space to the new design on which the smartphone industry has to work. Body design will change as chips, and other electronics parts will have complete integration. The question can also arise on the image quality front. It is because, with such technology, the camera converts analog signals into digital. Hence, there can be some sort of detailing loss. 

Final Word

Look, I can understand that you are feeling like getting into awestruck mode. But, you need to know that USC technology can give you a hit on the cost and quality domain. So, it’s better to allow Oppo to come up with accurate configurations and information with the smartphones in which they are bringing it.

Redeem Vouchers Without Cards & Apps Using e-RUPI

Ache Din Aayenge. Now, I will not get into this foul debate though I hold huge baggage of political knowledge. But you need to appreciate that the way this government is working towards the digitization of financial transactions, it is commendable. There have been a series of attempts – UPI, FASTag, RuPay, etc. And, now the time has come for e-RUPI. With this, India will enhance its financial networking and payment system. On 2nd August, India will get into the e-RUPI mode. What are the features of e-RUPI? Hold on! Wait! Your tech companion – Exhibit will tell you everything from this blog.

Modi Launching e-RUPI

Sometimes I feel as if I can unveil and unleash the poetic quotient in me. So, I thought to start with this heading – Modi launching e-RUPI. Hon’ble PM of India, Narendra Modi, will launch this electronic voucher-based digital payment system. National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) has developed this new payment system in collaboration with the Department of Financial Services, MoH&FW, and the National Health Authority (NHA). 

Working Principle of e-RUPI

E-Rupee (shortly, e-RUPI) is a form of the contactless and cashless digital payment system. This e-RUPI will have some sort of SMS string or QR code that mobile beneficiaries will get if they want to redeem vouchers. Remember vouchers? You wait for them to see that you have to pay less for the OTT platforms subscription. Yeah, something like that. But what’s new in it? The best part is that with this new model, you can redeem vouchers without even using your credit or debit card, internet banking, and digital payment app. What? Yes, every word written is true as proclaimed for the compass by Johnny Depp in the Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest movie. But how is that possible? Well, to be honest, this platform will directly connect service providers and the sponsor of the services.

Application of E-Rupee

Ever thought about why the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare got linked with this new payment model? It means MoH&FW will tap this system for various health schemes that are running in the country currently. For instance, have a look at the PMJAY scheme or TB eradication scheme. Here some sort of cash transfer is attached. Apart from this, this model of payment can widen its outreach by getting into the private sector, where companies have to work upon the social security end of their employees.

Final Word

E-Rupee can gain a lot of recognition for sure due to its functionality and niche. India has grabbed appreciation for its new form payment models that they have introduced in the past few years. But, it’s just the start, and a lot will depend upon the private sector’s acceptance.

Facebook’s Smart Glass – Another Giant Step

A few days back, we talked about Facebook working upon the virtual reality tool ‘Metaverse.’ But now Facebook is ready to take another giant step. As per the current news, Facebook is going to bring a smart glass in collaboration with Ray-Ban. For many tech geeks, this will be something really amazing. Let’s know more about this news on Facebook’s new smart glasses that they will launch soon with this Exhibit blog. 

Zuckerberg On Fire

We always say that when a batsman is hitting some beautiful shots constantly, we say that the batsman is on fire. But, for now, we have to say this for Mark Zuckerberg. The way Zuckerberg is moving is commendable in every aspect. Zuckerberg has announced on Wednesday that they are coming up with a Ray-ban smart glass. For this purpose, Facebook will partner with EssilorLuxottica. However, Zuckerberg has not announced any timeline by when it will release this new product in the market. Facebook has also clearly stated that this smart glass cannot be part of classification under augmented reality. Apart from this, this smart glass may be somewhere between Snapchat’s Spectacles and Amazon’s Echo Frames.

Facebook’s Smart Glass

Facebook’s R&D line is running with a full-fledged series of developments in current times. This smart glass will be part of Facebook Reality Labs’ project. This project will help grab data that will further get used in Facebook’s Aria plan, in which they are thinking of developing their AR smart glasses. This AR smart glass, as per Facebook, is currently in the testing phase. 

Smart Glass’s Working Principle

Whatever you see in smart glasses is due to the transmission of light. This transmission of light happens because of the change in voltage, light, or heat when applied. Hence, the glass part changes its character from being transparent to translucent. Smart glass technology allows a wide range of light, including both IR and UV. Smart glasses are categorized under two core categories – active and passive, depending upon the flow of electric charges through them. Both passive and active smart glasses have different functionality depending on this segregation.

Conclusion

Facebook might have found inspiration from WI Cricketer Dwayne Bravo’s ‘Champion.’ As a technology champion, Facebook is partnering with technology like VR and AR. Smart glasses have, as of now, very few stakeholders who are building products in this domain. With Facebook coming into it, it will bolster and give a bigger push on this front.

Is zero-carbon token future of tomorrow?

Fortunately, late developments and advances, for example, the blockchain have prompted a few answers for address these issues, and quite possibly the most encouraging arrangements come from Zero Carbon, a blockchain-based task that is ready to shake the business with its exceptional way to deal with how energy is burned-through today. 

A Zero Carbon token utilizes blockchain to battle environmental change. Customers can save money on energy and earn Zero Carbon token coins by switching to zero-carbon energy in the crypto market. Introducers might gain from spreading the word as well. By undercutting both renewable energy and fossil fuels on price, the Zero Carbon

The market can produce a faster reduction in carbon emissions. An established blockchain-driven economy with Energy tokens as significant reward-based incentives for customer activity can also act as the catalyst for change. A project in the area that aims to use blockchain technology to reshape the online travel sector has a very high incentive in the future.

This idea is a blockchain revolution uniquely, combining logistics with zero-carbon options. In this awful era of global warming and pandemics, the world must become carbon-free. Zero carbon tokens will be used to communicate important aspects of the digital ecosystem. It will provide token utility as well as a more advanced blockchain platform. These tokens have utility worth since energy providers need to source them to pay the exchange charges needed to take part in the Zero Carbon Market.

 How does it work?.

 The Zero Carbon token tackles climate change by lowering carbon emissions directly around the world. They do it by utilizing a mechanism that utilizes international carbon credits to balance the carbon emissions of energy contracts in a considerably more cost-effective manner than relying just on renewable energy.

Not only is this technology substantially less expensive than renewable energy, but it also cuts total carbon emissions by the same amount at a fraction of the cost! One unique feature of Zero Carbon is that energy suppliers pay the platform’s transaction fees rather than end-users, though consumers can decide to pay the transaction fees in exchange for lower energy rates.

Consumers can purchase electricity packages from suppliers through Zero Carbon’s market, which allows energy suppliers to list and sell their contracts to consumers. Consumers can choose from a list of suppliers, much as in a traditional marketplace, and Zero Carbon will display important information such as the cost of power or the advantages offered by each source to help them make smarter decisions.

Snapchat App Crash Issue: An iOS Bug Revolved

Even the wisest scholars have said – Don’t count your chicken before they get hatched. Social media giant Snapchat may have been singing “Top of The World” after witnessing theirs in terms of numbers. Exhibit discussed this Snapchat growth through an article recently. But those numbers are currently screaming for the crashes the Snapchat app is making. Due to this, the Snapchat team had to sit back tight and tried to resolve the issue at the earliest. With this Exhibit blog, we will learn more about the Snapchat app crash issue news that was creating havoc. 

Snapchat App Login Issue

On Thursday evening, more than a quarter a million Snapchat users reported the crash issue. This crash was coming every time they tried to open the app on their smartphone. This number of people who registered a complaint triggered an immediate response from the Snapchat team end. They came up with the tweet where they stated they are aware of this issue after users addressed it. The Snapchat app crash issue broke out earlier in June month, especially in the iOS versions. The development team at that moment identified the bug and eliminated it. 

Why did the issue of crashing come?

The complaint of the Snapchat app crash issue came out after iPhone and iPad users downloaded the newest update that has arrived. After downloading the latest update, users observed this bug repeatedly every time they tried to open the application on their gadget. Hence, one needs to understand this issue has not come for Android users at all. In Android, the app is working perfectly fine without any tussle. People who are using the beta version of the Snapchat app on their iOS devices have also not faced any issues. 

Snapchat Response

The Snapchat support team quickly came with a response and started working on this front. The best part was that the problem got contained within hours to ensure that users have hassle-free usage of this social media application. However, after fixing it, Snapchat doesn’t provide the basic reason behind the crash bug. The reason could be anything. One can say that maybe the application layer was unable to load some essential files at the OS level, due to which the crash was frequently occurring. Whatever issue was there, the most probable grassroots for the bug can be that the latest update was missing something that makes the application compatible with the OS. 

Final Word

If you are an iOS gadget lover who was using the Snapchat app and was eager to report the same, you need to know that now you can sing Roy Orbison’s “It’s Over” for sure. Don’t worry, as we are not saying to think about the romantic context, but for your love for the Snapchat app.

Realme MagDart Wireless Charger Slated To Release On 3rd August

Wireless chargers are the future, and every other company is trying their best to come up with one. The word wireless charger sounds cool, but it is slower than wired charging and puts an enormous strain on the battery. Whatever it is, no one really cares about its slow charging because the millennials prefer cool-tech over anything. Recently, Apple rolled out iOS 14.7 with the MagSafe Battery Pack support for iPhone 12 lineup, and now, Realme teases the world with MagDart Magnetic Wireless Charger.

The next-generation wireless charger system from the house of Realme, dubbed MagDart, is slated to release on 3rd August, and it looks much similar to Apple’s 15W MagSafe. The Chinese smartphone maker will also be launching a Realme Flash smartphone with magnetic charging support simultaneously, making them the first brand to bring magnetic charging technology to Android smartphones.

Over the past few days, MagDart-powered wireless chargers have appeared in several leaks, and recently, Realme CEO Madhav Seth revealed the MagDart technology would be 440% faster and thinner, taking an indirect dig at its only alternative, MagSafe. Apart from Realme, there aren’t any companies that offer such speeds globally besides Xiaomi, which offers 80W fast charging.

 

Realme MagDart will have at least two variants, one with a cuboidal structure for faster battery-charging speeds and the other one being a ring-like structure which was showcased on a teaser poster, similar to Apple MagSafe’s disc-like charger. 

The render images suggest that the cuboidal one will be thicker than a MagSafe charger and have fans to maintain temperature. It would be powered by a Type C cable and deliver charging speeds of over 15W.

The new wireless technology is expected to come with magnetic snap-on capabilities, similar to Apple’s MagSafe system. Also, the wireless charger is tipped to be the fastest wireless charger in the world. 

As for the Realme Flash smartphone, the company hasn’t mentioned anything besides its name, but it is expected to be powered by a Snapdragon 888 SoC and Android 11. Also, the upcoming smartphone is tipped to feature a hole-punch display, a triple rear camera setup, and 12GB RAM with up to 256 GB storage.

Apple To Require Masks In Stores In US Regardless Of Vaccination Status

Apple will now require staff and customers, both vaccinated and unvaccinated, to wear masks at most of its US stores. According to a Bloomberg report, they are bringing back the company’s requirement previously removed in June. The rule will be put into effect from this Thursday. 

On Wednesday, Apple headquarters in California informed all the visitors to wear masks indoors irrespective of their vaccination status as the risk of the delta virus upends. 

In a memo obtained by Bloomberg, Apple informed,

“After carefully reviewing the latest CDC recommendations, and analyzing the health and safety data for your local area, we are updating our guidance on face masks for your store.”

It further added,

“Starting July 29, face masks will be required in store for customers and team members — even if they’re vaccinated.”

Apple has maintained a reputation during the Covid-19 pandemic for making decisions about where it is deemed safe to operate its retail stores, sometimes even ahead of public health orders. 

While in talks with CNBC, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the company could push back its plan to call workers from September to October.

“We are monitoring things daily to really conclude whether that is the right answer or not,” Cook said.

The move comes after COVID-19 cases start to rise in most parts of the country and when the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advised people who are already vaccinated to wear masks indoors in public ‘if you are in the area of high transmission.”

As far as sales are concerned, Apple has continued to top the charts. According to Cook, sales rose 36% on an annual basis when the quarter ended in June.

In a similar response, Google has also said that it would require all the employees to be vaccinated before returning to the office. The company also delayed its return to the physical office from September to October 18.
