The story is about a mountain climber who wanted to climb the highest mountain alone for glory. As he neared the top at nightfall, he slipped and fell in the darkness. Hanging from his rope, he prayed to God for help. A voice from above told him to cut the rope, but he held on for dear life. The next day rescuers found his frozen body just 10 feet from the ground, hands still clutching the rope. The moral is about clinging tightly to God rather than letting go of earthly attachments.
Temple Run 2 is an improved version of the original Temple Run game. It has better graphics, more action-packed gameplay with enhanced lighting effects and varied paths. While it keeps kids entertained, the game has no clear end, requires screen tilting instead of allowing laying down play, and gets repetitive quickly as the single character can block views when jumping. It has been downloaded over 170 million times worldwide and rated highly in app stores.

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%).

AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.
A brief introduction to DataScience with explaining of the concepts, algorithms, machine learning, supervised and unsupervised learning, clustering, statistics, data preprocessing, real-world applications etc.

2. WHAT IS ANDROID?
Android, the world's most popular mobile platform
Android powers hundreds of millions of mobile devices
in more than 190 countries around the world. It's the
largest installed base of any mobile platform and
growing fast—every day another million users power
up their Android devices for the first time and start
looking for apps, games, and other digital content.
Android gives you a world-class platform for creating
apps and games for Android users everywhere, as well

Android is the name of the mobile operating system
made by American company; Google. It comes installed
on a variety of smart phones and tablets, offering users
access to Google’s own services like Search, YouTube,
Maps, Gmail and more.
This means you can easily look for information on the
web, watch videos, search for directions and write
emails on your phone, just as you would on your
computer. This is handy for checking up on things like
train times and getting directions when out and about,
but there’s more to Android than these simple examples.

Android is the world's most popular mobile platform. With
Android you can use all the Google apps you know and love, plus
there are more than 600,000 apps and games available on
Google Play to keep you entertained, alongside millions of songs
and books, and thousands of movies. Android devices are already
smart, and will only get smarter, with new features you won't find
on any other platform, letting you focus on what's important and
putting you in control of your mobile experience.
5. Global partnerships and large installed base
Every day more than 1 million new Android devices are activated
worldwide. Android’s openness has made it a favourite for
consumers and developers alike, driving strong growth in app
consumption. Android users download more than 1.5 billion apps
and games from Google Play each month.
Building on the contributions of the open-source Linux community and
more than 300 hardware, software, and carrier partners, Android
has rapidly become the fastest-growing mobile OS.With it's
partners, Android is continuously pushing the boundaries of
hardware and software forward to bring new capabilities to users
and developers. For developers, Android innovation lets you build
powerful, differentiated applications that use the latest mobile
technologies.
6. Powerful development framework
Easily optimize a single binary for phones, tablets, and other devices. Android gives
you everything you need to build best-in-class app experiences. It gives you a single
application model that lets you deploy your apps broadly to hundreds of millions of
users across a wide range of devices—from phones to tablets and beyond.
Android also gives you tools for creating apps that look great and take advantage
of the hardware capabilities available on each device. It automatically adapts your
UI to look it's best on each device, while giving you as much control as you want over
your UI on different device types. For example, you can create a single app binary
that's optimized for both phone and tablet form factors. You declare your UI in
lightweight sets of XML resources, one set for parts of the UI that are common to all
form factors and other sets for optimizations specific to phones or tablets. At runtime,
Android applies the correct resource sets based on its screen size, density, locale,
and so on. To help you develop efficiently, the Android Developer Tools offer a full
Java IDE with advanced features for developing, debugging, and packaging
Android apps. Using the IDE, you can develop on any available Android device or
create virtual devices that emulate any hardware configuration.
7. Features to Look for When Choosing a
New Android Phone
Design
Because Android phones are made by a variety of manufacturers, you have a variety of
options when selecting a handset. That means that you can choose one that fits your needs. One
of the most important things to consider when looking at a phone's design is whether or not it
includes a full keyboard. Many of today's Android phones are touch-screen-only devices, and
while they may look cool, they're not always as usable as their keyboard-equipped
counterparts. A full QWERTY keyboard can add a bit of bulk to the phone, especially if it's a
keyboard that slides out of sight when you're not using it, but that can be worth the convenience
that comes with having an actual keyboard to type on.
Other features to consider when looking at a phone's design are screen size and resolution.
More and more phones are offering super-sized screens -- 4-inches to 4.3-inches diagonally, or
even bigger -- which are certainly easy on the eyes. But a bigger screen may mean a bigger
phone, and a bigger phone may be hard to slip into a pocket. A bigger phone also can be
uncomfortable to hold next to your ear during lengthy phone calls.
A screen's resolution can be just as important as its size. In general, the higher the resolution, the
crisper and clearer the display will look. Whenever possible, try the phone out in a store
before you buy it. See how the display looks to you. You should also try it out in various lighting
conditions, as different lights -- especially bright sunlight -- can drastically affect the look of
the screen.
9. Android updates
Google is constantly working on new versions of the Android software. These
releases are infrequent; at the moment they normally come out every six
months or so, but Google is looking to slow this down to once a year.
Versions usually come with a numerical code and a codename that’s so far
been named after desserts running in alphabetical order.
Android 1.5 Cupcake
Android 2.1 Eclair
Android 2.2 Froyo
Android 2.3 Gingerbread
Android 3.2 Honeycomb - The first OS design specifically for a tablet,
launching on the Motorola Xoom
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich: The first OS to run on smart phones and
tablet, ending the 2.X naming convention.
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean: Launched on the Google Nexus 7 tablet by Asus
Android 4.2 Jelly Bean: Arrived on the LG Nexus 4
Google also releases minor updates with bug fixes and improvements.
10. What Is an Android Phone?
An Android phone is a smart phone running on Google's
open-source Android operating system. Many different
manufacturers make Android phones, including HTC,
Motorola, and Samsung. Dozens and dozens of different
Android phones are now available, and all of the major
cellular carriers in the U.S. offer Android phones.
Originally derived from the Linux desktop operating system,
Android is a customizable platform that can look and feel
very different on very different handsets. That means that
an HTC Android phone will look and operate differently
than an Android phone made by Samsung. It also means
that an HTC Android phone from T-Mobile won't be exactly
like an HTC Android phone that runs on Sprint's network.
11. What can an Android phone do?
Android phones are highly customisable and as such can be altered to suit
your tastes and needs. You can check your Face book and Twitter profiles
through a variety of apps making it ideal for social networking. Through the
calendar you can set reminders from your desktop or your phone and on
the latest versions of Android you can send links to and from your computer
and vice versa.
Another neat feature of Android is that it automatically backs up your
contacts for you. When you set up an Android phone you’ll need to create a
Google Account or sign in with an existing one. Every time you save a
number to the address book of your Android phone it will be synced to
your Google Account.
The benefit of this is if you lose your phone all of your numbers will be
saved. The next time you get an Android phone and sign in with your
Google Account, all of your contacts and friends numbers will be displayed
in your new phone’s address book and you can even access or edit them
from a computer.
12. What apps can I get on an Android
phone?
There are hundreds of thousands of apps and games available to
download from the Google Play store (formerly the Android Market). There
are camera apps that allow you to take pictures with artistic effects and
filters on them and music players which allow you to import MP3s from your
phone or create playlists. You can customise the appearance of your
Android handset with a number of wallpapers based on pictures you’ve
taken yourself or downloaded from the web too.
There are also various on-screen widgets to download which allow access
and alteration the settings of your phone without having to dive through
menus as you would on rival devices. You can pretty much create your own
system of shortcuts and menus to better suit how you uniquely use your
phone.
Popular games available for Android phones include Angry Birds, Draw
Something and Temple Run 2 to name but three, but there are thousands of
free and paid apps and games on offer.
13. How can I get apps on an Android
phone?
The majority of apps can be downloaded from the Google Play store (the equivalent of
Apple’s App Store), which includes a mix of free as well as premium apps that you’ll have to
pay for. Some apps have ‘lite’ versions which are free, in the hope you’ll enjoy them and
upgrade to the full premium version. Others - like Angry Birds - are free, but include adverts.
The same account that lets you backup your contacts can also have financial details added to
it, allowing you the ability to purchase content from the Google Play store directly. You can
pay either by debit or credit card and initial setup takes less than five minutes from a
computer.
Although there are some 700,000 apps available to Android users in the Google Play store,
some developers choose to make their apps available to download from their own sites. In
order to download these you'll have to change some settings on your phone before visiting the
site on your Android phone’s web browser. By downloading apps other than from the Google
Play store, you do run the risk of attack in the form of data theft or from a virus so be careful
if you choose that route.
Should you upgrade or change your Android phone; log into your Google account and you’ll
be able to download your previously owned apps again, without being charged.
14. What does an Android phone look
like?
Android phones come in many different shapes, colours and sizes.
Some have super-fast processors, some have powerful cameras and
a few have hardware QWERTY keyboards.
All current Android phones feature a touch screens, the size of which
varies, but in most cases it measures at least 3-inches diagonally,
although some devices use much larger displays; like the Samsung
Galaxy Note 2 for example which features a 5.5-inch screen and
has been described as a 'phablet' - a cross between a phone and
tablet.
Popular Android phones include the Samsung Galaxy S3 (4.8-inch),
LG Nexus 4 (4.7-inch), Sony Xperia S (4.3-inch) and HTC Desire C
(3.5-inch). Some examples of Android phones with hardware
QWERTY keyboards include the HTC Desire Z, HTC ChaCha and
Sony Xperia Mini Pro.
15. So who makes Android phones?
Every handset maker is free to make an Android
phone if they want to. As well as the
aforementioned HTC, Motorola, Samsung, LG and
Sony, Acer, Alcatel, Huawei and ZTE have all made
Android phones too. Apple, Nokia and RIM (who
make BlackBerry smart phones) do not offer
Android handsets however.
16. Advantages Android
1. Android is open - Because it is Linux based open source so it can be
developed by anyone.

harm your device.
17. Disadvantages Android
1. Need internet connection - Android requires an active internet connection.
At least there should be a GPRS internet connection in your area, so that
the device is ready to go online according to our needs.
2. Advertising - Application in the Android phones can indeed be obtained
easily and for free, but the consequences in each of these applications, will
always be ads on display, either the top or bottom of the application.
3. Wasteful Battery - Android more wasteful than any other operating
system, because this operating system is a lot of "process" in the
background that lead to the battery quickly drains.
