Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

00:00 Introduction to C
1:42-History of C language
Dennis Ritchie, a computer scientist, could identify the gaps and tap out the best features from both B and BCPL languages to invent a new hybrid.
Hence, C was born in 1972 at Bell Laboratories. A remarkably simple and highly readable programming language resulted in groundbreaking advancements in the IT industry.
2:48-Importance and unraveling the powerful capabilities of C,
The widespread use of C started to take over the IT industry. Unraveling the potential of C, the designers began to discover new possibilities that led them to focus on the big picture.
3:56-C's cutting-edge features
The designers at Bell Laboratories ensured that their programming language solved the issues with B and BCPL and the ones they had foreseen.
6:35-The popular real-world applications of C
-UNIX operating system
-google file system
-Mozilla

Dennis Ritchie, a computer scientist, was able to identify the gaps and tap out the best features from both B and BCPL languages to invent a new hybrid.
Hence, C was born in 1972 at Bell Laboratories. A remarkably simple and highly readable programming language resulted in groundbreaking advancements in the IT industry.
✅What is C++ Programming?
C++ is an enhanced and extended version of C programming language, developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979 as part of his Ph.D. project. Bjarne developed what he called ‘C with Classes’ (later renamed C++) because he felt limited by the existing programming languages that were not ideal for large scale projects. He used C to build what he wanted because C was already a general-purpose language that was efficient and fast in its operations.
✅C++ Career Prospects:
With just C++ programming expertise, you will have excellent job opportunities, salaries, and career prospects. However, for a career based on programming languages such as Java and Python (which are in more demand than C++) or for careers based on front-end, back-end, and full-stack

etc.);
3. Names of candidates were written in ordinary writing
except for one which was written in big Gothic letters;
OTHER INSTANCES OF MARKED BALLOTS
(UM)
75. 1. Appearance of same names on several ballots on precisely same space, cast
only in one precinct.
2. Name of one candidate clearly and markedly indented to the right as to render
the ballot easily distinguishable.

INSTANCES OF MARKED BALLOTS DUE TO
PATTERN VOTING

well be the voter’s habitual one, there being no evidence to show
otherwise.
2. Voters tend to follow arrangement appearing in sample
ballots distributed by each candidate. This, standing alone, does not
render the ballot marked.
3. The writing of name of candidate twice in space for Mayor
would indicate only the enthusiasm of the voter voting for the said
candidate.
4. Having voters belonging to the same precinct writing the names
of particular candidates in an identical manner in a ballot is not
necessarily invalid.
INSTANCES WHERE BALLOTS DEEMED
VALID and NOT MARKED
78. Q. When can there be multiple ballots “Written by One” person?
WRITTEN BY ONE
A. This arises when there are several ballots with similar handwriting in excess
of number of officially recognized disabled and illiterate voters in a polling
place plus the voter himself.
Q. Are “Written by One” ballots valid?
A. Yes, provided the handwritings thereon are similar to the signature of a
register assistor found in the Minutes of Voting; one ballot by the assistor
and for not more than three illiterate or disabled voters unless the assistor is
a member of the Electoral Board. Otherwise, the ballots should be rejected.
79. Q. How can one determine that a handwriting is that of one person only?
A. When the writings in the subject ballots are strikingly alike, with presence not
only of class characteristics but also individual characteristics or dents and
scratches in sufficient quantity.
Q. Is there a need for technical examination of ballots?
A. The rule is, the Commission or the Electoral Tribunal may or may not make
the determination without need of calling handwriting experts.
WRITTEN BY ONE
81. Q. When can we say that the ballot was filled out by two or more persons?
WRITTEN BY TWO OR MORE PERSONS
A. When ballot shows distinct and marked dissimilarities in the writing of the
names of some candidates from the rest.
Q. What are it effects?
A. If tampered entries made after ballot was cast, it is VALID. If it bears fillings
of two or more persons when cast, ballot is deemed marked thus VOID.],
Q. What is the presumption if there are such dissimilarities found on the ballot?
A. Such dissimilarities made before ballot was deposited in the ballot box.
82. Q. How do we resolve doubts?
A. When there is doubt as to whether the names were written by two
persons, the doubt must be resolved in favor of the validity of the
ballot.
Q. Are all dissimilarities indications of marked ballots?
A. NO. It is very rare that 2 specimens of a person’s handwriting or
signature are exactly alike.
Minor and insignificant variations in handwriting are
even perceived as indicia of genuineness rather than falsity.
