Only males are called peacocks. Females are called as peahens and their children are called as peachicks. Collectively they are termed as peafowl.

Ostrich eye is bigger than their brain

They have the biggest eyes in the whole animal kingdom.

Kangaroos produce low methane fats and burps

This is because gas they release contains less methane than released from other grass grazers such as cows, goats. Credit goes to bacteria living inside their digestive tracts. Such study can be very effective in coming times and will enable cows, goats to produce low methane fats and burps. Methane is one of the most harmful contributor of greenhouse effect and is more powerful than carbon dioxide (Methane is 86 times worse for global warming than carbon dioxide)

Giraffas have no Vocal Cord

Griffas do have a larynx (voice box) but perhaps, they could not produce sufficient airflow through their 13-foot long (4 meter) trachea to vibrate their vocal cords and make noise.

Slugs have 4 noses

Slugs have two pairs of tentacles. Tentacles which are located at the top of head has a small black spot at each tip. These are used to detect lightness and darkness. The second pair is located at the lower part of the head. They picks up chemical smell as well as sensitive to touch.

Seven Wonderful and Useful technologies of 2017

Technologies has played a very important role in development and serving society. It is quite amazing that we all can communicate using a small device which fits in our pocket. It is because of development that customers or people are served better services in almost all the sectors. Devices can predict weather forecasting, cars are becoming safer today, mobiles are becoming smarter day by day and Internet of Things is at boom stage. Here is the list of seven technologies development in 2017 according to way I see.

Jibo: It is one of the greatest inventions of 2017. Cynthia Breazeal is the founder and chief scientist at Jibo, Inc. It can dance, play music, respond to your queries and better than its competitors in market in some aspects. Jibo is curious, social and playful. Such words can been seen on the box in which it is packed. Cynthia is an associate professor of Media Arts and Sciences at MIT who is considered as a pioneer of social robotics and human robot interaction.

iPhone X: This opens the platform for manufacturing of iPhone with full fledged AI. This iPhone came with A11 Bionic processor which is integrated with dedicated neural hardware which can perform 600 billion operations per second. It came with augmented reality where you can use the existing space while creating new things. Such technology has also been implemented in luxurious cars such as BMW which prevents accidents and safeguard persons in the car. Home button is eliminated in iPhone X and is opened using authorized face. Animoji is another feature which transforms your emotions into an animated emojis. Faces can be masked with unicorns, robots, pigs, poo, etc.

Self-driving Trucks: It is considered as one of the breakthrough technologies of 2017. One of the leading company in bringing such innovation is Otto. It uses Lidar system which uses pulsated laser which collects detailed data from the surroundings. This data is fed to super computers through an appropriate model which is processed using high computation power. This system is connected to mechanical steering, throttling and braking system by some electromechanical actuators.

The 360 degree Selfie: Development of such technology has opened new era in photography. Using this one can experience the world in 360 degree surrounded by sights and sounds. One of the real time applications of such cameras were used in showing the damage done by hurricane at Haiti. Samsung Gear 360 cameras were used. Technology if used in the right way can help society in every possible way. These cameras can help medical student to learn and visualize the operation in better way. Players can improve themselves a lot while watching videos after playing. Almost there will be huge improvement in all sectors. One another side is high heat is dissipated so to overcome such, processors like Qualcomm Snapdragon are used in them. Surely such breakthrough technology will take virtual reality to next level and end users will see a lot of features.

Reinforcement learning: It refers to learning by experience and practice. You might have known about Alpha Go, a program created by Deep mind which is subsidiary of Alphabet. It had defeated one of the expert players Lee Sedol in the board game Go competition. Moves played by the program cannot be learnt pre-trained. It learnt from the experience and won the game. This is what reinforced learning is. Giant companies such as Uber and Google are tweaking their present products based on AI to next level using reinforced learning. Self driverless cars needs more accuracy, otherwise such will result in a formidable positions. It will help in using the computation power in an incredible way.

Kymriah: This is human gene edited therapy for cancer treatment. This is termed as a huge leap towards fighting dreadful disease cancer. Using this WBC (T cells) is modified and receptors are added to locate malignant ones. Hence, T cells or T lymphocyte fight against these. This process is called adoptive cell transfer.

NASA Mars Insight: Insight is a robotic lander. Lander is a spacecraft which lands safely on reaching the astronomical body. It is manufactured by Lockheed Martin Space system which contains instrument for measuring heat flow, rotation, interior temperature, winds and seismic experiments. Objective of insight is to place a seismometer and heat transfer probe on surface to study planets geological evolution. This will serve purpose of better understanding of other terrestrial planets such as Mercury, Venus, and Earth. Insight will study deep of mars.

Everything on demand: Such phrase signifies its meaning. Swigy, Uber eats, Zomato has made it possible to order food by just placing it on phone app. From rides to serving, everything has become so quick that we all wonder what new is going to happen in the coming time.

In a nutshell, we have read some amazing and outstanding technologies which were developed in 2017. Starting with Jibo them moving towards iPhone X, Self driving trucks, The 360 degree Selfie, Reinforcement learning, Kymriah, NASA mars insight and everything on demand all of these have deeply impacted society. Life has become more secure and comfortable with these developments. Augmented reality has made it possible to drive the vehicles safely. Reinforcement learning has made development in self driverless cars one step ahead. Cancer which was assumed to be incurable can be cured using Kymriah. NASA insight will help to study mars better which will be useful to study universe in a better way. A lot to come in 2018 and I am waiting eagerly for it. Since Artificial intelligence is making its great impact like we have seen in jibo, iPhone X, Reinforcement learning, some of such notable work can be seen from AI Sangam You Tube Channel.

Bitcoin: A renaissance in Finance and Money

Well, well, well word bitcoin is the most spoken word especially in stock marketing since 29 November, 2017 when news hits that Bitcoin surges through $11,000 in less than 24 hours.  Many times readers have come across the word cryptocurrency  while reading the context of bitcoin. What is cryptocurrency? Let me explain you in plain english so that it may enters your head with ease. Cryptocurrency can be stated as beginning of secure digital transaction. I am not wrong if i say that it is the money of future. It is a digital medium of exchange which involves the process of cryptography to secure its transaction and creation of new coins. It is different from normal currencies like USD whose value is controlled by government whereas cryptocurrencies are fully decentralized and government has no control on it. Let me move straightforward towards the topic of this article and justify why bitcoin would be the future of money or a renaissance in finance. Bitcoin uses block chain as its building block and security of blockchain is its describing feature. Hackers have to solve complex computational problems and have to alter every single block and links in the chain and almost approximately half of the computers involved in mining the block chain. This is nearly impossible. This level of security in the transaction makes bitcoin future of money and renaissance in finance. Though there may be many gimmicks or drawbacks or loop holes in this digital currency but this has provided a new way of life and enhances a new level of security.

Now let us see the key difference between other currencies and bitcoin. If I am taking about USD or euro or other major currencies of the world these are referred as Fiat currency whose value is backed by the government whereas bitcoins are created by the decentralized process called mining. Mining is done by skilled persons called bitcoin miners and special hardware is used for securing the network. One key feature in creation of new bit coins lies in its creation at fixed rate. These rates have been defined by Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of bitcoin in his paper Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System published in 2008. As process involved in creating is mining hence it is often compared with gold which shares the same process. Bitcoin uses  Blockchain (public ledger of all transaction) to add records of a new transaction and are added in blocks roughly every 10 minutes. Ledger plays a very important role and is needed by every node to confirm the validity of transaction. Bit coin miner which are expertise in mathematics solves complex mathematical  problem using appropriate software  and succeeds in creating a new block and received certain amount of bitcoin as reward. Roughly speaking after every four years, block reward is halved. In plain English approach is miners uses their hardware to verify  valid transaction, put them in blocks, solve the mathematical problem  during the process called hashing and getting new blocks added to the blockchain.

Following reason explain why bitcoin beat dollar or any other relevant currency:

  1. No intermediate between sender and receiver needed: Bitcoin is a decentralised type of currency and hence banks have no control over it. some relief from banking system is achieved.
  2. Bitcoin is rebuilding free marketers capitalism or democracy in financial system : Bitcoin is trying to free market and invention. This will lead to increased economy.
  3. Bitcoin appreciation versus dollar inflation: Inflation means when more money is circulated in the market and hence price of money is decreased. but when bitcoin is referred it has a set amount of bitcoins in the circulation (12.5 new bitcoins are added into circulation in every 10 minutes). When more people enter in the market price of bitcoin increases. Statistics says that value of bitcoin has increased 50% in 2016, whereas price has risen to 35% in 2015.
  4. Bitcoin enhances more security than dollar’s security: Bitcoin has no single point of failure, network is more secure. Bitcoin unlike the fiat money is consumer driven. Bitcoin uses SHA-256 encryption for both its proof-of-work (POW) system and transaction verification security of bitcoin lies in transaction blockchain. Bitcoin wallet can be stored offline and hence eliminating the risk of being bitcoin wallet stolen.

Disadvantages of Bitcoin:

  1. Bitcoin are not wisely accepted: Bitcoin are only accepted by a few online merchants. So whole world cannot rely on this currency.
  2. Corruption of wallet: Since wallet can be stored offline, it has chance to be corrupted by virus or hard disk can crash.
  3. No Physical form: It can not be directly used in stores and needs to be converted in another form.
  4. Decentralised Nature: This nature is both curve and blessing. As it has no central authority governing it. No one can guarantee its minimum valuation.

Future Scope of Bitcoin:

Bitcoin does not have physical form, hence needs to be converted to another form to use in stores and many other places.This issue needs to be addressed. Further, bitcoin is not widely accepted system as it is a new concept and people has less believe in it till now but as every coin has two sides let us see optimistic point with regard to bitcoin. It is a open system and anyone in the world can access to it. If you look at the banking system around the world, many people do not have access to banking system and hence it will be boon for such people. Another feature which makes it effective and trending is its decentralized nature which makes it more transparent. Considering all the points, it will be not false to say that bitcoin would be future of the money. But still it takes time and trust of people on it will be needed.
