1. Writing for the general user Before Mossberg emerged on the horizon in the early nineties, writing on tech writing was the kingdom of the geeks, for the geeks and by the geeks. A general user would have struggled to make sense of most of the articles that appeared in tech publications those days, so laden were they with jargon and tech-ese. This was a result of a trend in the seventies when most of the writing on technology was done by engineers who could not be blamed for resorting to jargon because most tech readings were done by other engineers who had to make purchases for enterprises....

The DJI Spark weighs in at 0.6 pounds and is apparently the thinnest and the lightest drone that DJI has ever made.

Now since it’s a cheaper, smaller and lighter drone, most of us might already judge the DJI Spark and presume that it has ditched some of the most important features, however, that doesn’t seem to be the case here....

This way you’re saving time and instead of investigating yourself the app simply tells what to do. There are several such applications starting with the oldest ones that don’t make it very clear what problem you’re confronted with and moving close to the present, when apps became extremely comprehensive....

Gadgets, which were introduced in Vista are mini applications built using XML, DHTML, and JavaScript. In Vista, though, those gadgets were more constrained to the sidebar. Although you could move them outside the sidebar to other parts of the screen, the bar itself would never really go away. In Windows 7, that has changed. The sidebar is no more and the gadgets can sit anywhere on your screen in either a minimized or maximized state....

And whenever that claim is made, you can see most media persons (we included) shake their heads in mild disapproval. For, while there is no doubting that phone cameras are better than ever before, DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and prosumer cameras have dedicated processors, better and larger sensors, and jargon apart, are dedicated totally to taking pictures, unlike phones for which photography is just one of many features. So no matter what the claims made by the manufacturer, most people who know photography will generally know that a dedicated camera in most cases will take a much better photograph than a smartphone camera....

There are times when you have to give your phone to someone else, and in some cases, you are wary of that person’s intent. In such scenarios, you are always on the look for a third-party app that allows you to lock WhatsApp and keep it safe using either a passcode or your biometrics. Unfortunately, unlike Android, that allows you to download a third-party application to lock apps on your phone, iOS does not provide the same privilege, and thus, it is very much up to the app developer whether they feel the need to include such a security feature on their app by default....
