>> 3) Author is modifying the product behavior with their software. So yes author. You are still liable. Technically, your customers are first in the line of fire. But the likely sequence of steps is: Friendly Spectrum Representative will visit them first, have a chat, ask them to stop using the device, then leave them a lone and then come for YOU.

Few questions related to this. - Does this meant that recertification is required every time we load a different version of the software ? - How does this work for Computers and mobile phones ? The hardware is certified but you are loading different software daily.

someonenice | 3 years ago | on: Texas requires ‘In God We Trust’ signs in schools. A man wants some in Arabic

>> SECTION 2. This Act takes effect immediately if it receives a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house, as provided by Section 39, Article III, Texas Constitution. If this Act does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, this Act takes effect September 1, 2021.

I am not American - So strange that the act takes effect even if it does not receive the required votes, only a bit later. How does it work ?

someonenice | 3 years ago | on: TikTok and the Fall of the Social-Media Giants

Tiktok here does not force you to login for watching the videos (unless you want to like / comment / subscribe etc.. ). And also allows downloading the videos right from the app (if the creator has enabled download for the video), so I download the ones that are to be bookmarked.

This is in stark contrast to what the FB and Insta like companies do.

Since I don't login, I use multiple devices to access tiktok. And I noticed that the stream content is different on my phone (mostly used while traveling / outside home and contain news and semi serious random stuff), tab (mainly used in the bed and contain light funny contents) and computer (serious stuff - arts, tech etc..).

BTW - I am only a tiktok consumer and not creator.

What about the other way - if the commit is "damaging" in nature specially on a competitors repo. For example the recent NPM commit that wiped user data. If its done on company time using company laptop, will the company be liable ?

someonenice | 4 years ago | on: Two-minute battery changes push India’s delivery riders to switch to e-scooters

- The batteries discussed here are small and comparatively light weight (a person can remove). So consider it more as "Cells". If you want more range, replace more cells or have heavier pack. If you need the range of Tesla, then you need more battery packs in the vehicle (And increases the weight of the vehicle and its cost).

- Also the vehicles mentioned here (Auto rickshaw) generally carry max 3 customers for shorter distances. Majority of the travel will be in the range of less than 10 Kms.

So for less cost, she is able to serve the same customers, increasing her earning.

someonenice | 5 years ago | on: WhatsApp risks losing its most loyal customers: Indian uncles and aunties

So in Indian context respect is shown to the elders by means of different suffix (brother, sister, uncle, grandpa).

It could be either brother (bhaiyya, anna, chettan ) or Sister (deedi, akka, chechi .. ) if the person is elder to you but not too older than you. So if you are in 20's , and shopkeeper (who is Raju) is in his 40s, you might call him Raju bhaiyya (or Raju anna in Tamil, Raju chettan in Malayalam).

If there is a visible One generation gap, then Uncle or Auntie is used.

And if there is a visible two generation gap, then grandpa and grandma is also suffixed to call them (but this is not very common.. and sometimes could be taken as insult)

And the elders might call you Son or Daughter (beta, beti ..) in a similar way.

And you could be complete strangers.

Instead of being a single blog post / article as part of another site, here we have a whole domain for a single article.

Hope more articles coming up on the site.

The coconut is harvested at different stages and used for different purpose - Tender coconut - Havested at very early stage and mainly used for the water.
