Cautioning Against Technological Pitfalls – Part Seven

Encouraging the Opening of the Field of Application Development to the Private Sector

Some bodies, institutions, and companies find difficulty in developing their services and providing the work teams to do so, and privatizing such services and opening the field to the private sector to launch competing smart service applications allows everyone to win a better experience. Here the competition begins between private sector companies without monopolizing it for a particular company for any reason whatsoever, or the field is opened for a specific number such as 10 companies, so the difference is built on the strength and performance of the application, the design, ease of use, and technical support, and it falls upon the body to provide the programming packages to access their services and specific fees for each service, for people are prepared to pay a symbolic additional sum in exchange for the quality and integration of services. The matter has become much easier, especially after the availability of the digital identity platform, so imagine, dear reader, the availability of dozens of applications and websites that provide services on behalf of many institutions, with the condition of making all capabilities available to all companies without preferential treatment, with the proposal of imposing a governmental regulatory body over them.

Cautioning Against Not Allocating Employees to Research, Experimentation, and Development

Institutions that do not form a committee, work team, department, or even a dedicated employee for research and development lack many electronic services or important features, whether for their clients or even for their employees, especially in our field, information technology, for when a team or even a single employee (depending on the size of the institution, the number of its employees, and the core of its work) focuses on research, experimentation, and development even in the finest details, this is bound to create an environment that develops continuously every time the sun rises and sets, and this is a matter of utmost importance, and it is among the characteristics of a successful leader who is keen on developing the institution.

Cautioning Against Malicious Accounts That Fish in Murky Waters, Directed from Abroad

Some bankrupt corruptors who disguise themselves with accounts under common, patriotic names, and others under pseudonyms, think they are mixing poison with honey to weaken society, stir up chaos, and diminish the value of every national achievement, and others jeer and slander, so you are surprised that these malicious accounts are active in every murky water. The duty is to report them without posting or reposting their content, by way of denial, for this would be a kind of indirect support for their conceit, for if the bellows-blower were left to blow without sparks, he would find no path for his fire. Each of us should beware of following as much as possible, for people are like the carrier of musk or the blower of the bellows, and the electronic flies directed by spiteful, corrupt foreign parties number in the thousands. Let these mercenaries know that the house is united, the structure is solidly compacted, and our hearts are with one another together with our esteemed leaders.

Encouraging the Use of the HDMI ARC Audio Port from the Television

Many people are unaware of the benefit of the HDMI ARC port, which is often one of the ports in the television, and this port re-sends all the sounds to the audio system you have, provided that your audio system supports this feature, as is the case with the JBL Bar 5.1, Bar 9.1 speakers and others. In this case you will need an HDMI 2.1 connection (cable) from UGREEN, for example, that supports this feature. The completion of this system with the television, the audio system, and the connection gives a wonderful cinematic sound when using the television, whether for watching or playing electronic games on the television, especially if the television supports Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic II or supports DTS, such as Sony and Samsung televisions and others within specific categories. Many televisions support HDMI ARC, and especially Dolby Digital, so check your television, but few of them support the newer and much more powerful new HDMI eARC system, which supports a much higher sound quality such as the supreme-quality Dolby TrueHD. This sound experience makes a big difference, so do not hesitate to try it.

Cautioning Against Not Developing Yourself by Not Keeping Up with Everything New

The brain theoretically dies when it does not learn something new every now and then. Today modern technologies have made the matter easy for us and made it simple and effortless, from news apps to specialized sites, passing through podcasts, all the way to mailing lists, the oceans of YouTube, the world of training sites, and social media platforms. Everyone needs to develop skills, continuous learning, courses, abundant reading, writing, listening, and watching what is useful and beneficial, and the least of which is keeping up with everything new in your field, especially vital fields such as technology. You have no excuse after today for not knowing technical news given that you are a specialist, or for not enhancing the sciences of your specialty and broadening your horizons whatever your specialty may be, for the key to developing yourself is you, no one else.

Cautioning Against Buying Cars Without Technical Specifications

Technology has repeatedly affirmed that it is here to serve the human being, enhance him, and provide a useful and beneficial addition to him wherever he may be and in whatever form. Cars have not been devoid of technology in the finest details of their manufacture, but stinginess chokes some car suppliers into not providing it in its best form, equipped with the simplest technologies that have become essential and standard, such as smart screens that support Android and iPhone phones, as well as front and rear collision sensors, a rear-view camera, as well as blind-spot alerts, automatic anti-collision radar, smart cruise control, in addition to anti-lock brakes and fog lights. These technologies have become an inevitable matter and are not the exclusive preserve of luxury cars or the high, premium value grades, for these are most akin to the simplest of human rights and the pillars of the requirements for buying a car that carries souls, so these companies must be keen on the safety of souls before greed, for it is known that the cost of these technologies has become very, very low.

Cautioning Against Apps Drowning in Annoying Ads!

The relationship between the user and the app is an important relationship, and apps that do not value the user and make of him merely a commodity for profiting from ads and make the app drown in annoying ads is a matter that troubles many users. There is no doubt that the concept of ads is important for app producers, but more important is the relationship with users, so the pattern of native ads, which do not constitute an annoyance to the user, must be used, for everything has taste and art, and adopting the principle of everyone winning is important in life, and today, with the spread of apps, finding an alternative is no longer a difficult matter.
