@JaquarGroup you have pathetic aftersales service, your consultants does not pickup the call. There is no resolution to my registered request 01621882. Your heatpump is pathetic product I wasted lot of money on this, please get it fixed.

@JaquarGroup I have recently purchased the heatpump, the dealer told that it just take 3kv load, however after installation my electricity bill shot up by 3 times. It take 20amp load and causing huge damage to the wiring.. please address immediately.

I spent 10% of my life contributing to the development of the #VisionPro while I worked at Apple as a Neurotechnology Prototyping Researcher in the Technology Development Group. It’s the longest I’ve ever worked on a single effort. I’m proud and relieved that it’s finally announced. I’ve been working on AR and VR for ten years, and in many ways, this is a culmination of the whole industry into a single product. I’m thankful I helped make it real, and I’m open to consulting and taking calls if you’re looking to enter the space or refine your strategy. The work I did supported the foundational development of Vision Pro, the mindfulness experiences, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ products, and also more ambitious moonshot research with neurotechnology. Like, predicting you’ll click on something before you do, basically mind reading. I was there for 3.5 years and left at the end of 2021, so I’m excited to experience how the last two years brought everything together. I’m really curious what made the cut and what will be released later on. Specifically, I’m proud of contributing to the initial vision, strategy and direction of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ program for Vision Pro. The work I did on a small team helped green light that product category, and I think it could have significant global impact one day. The large majority of work I did at Apple is under NDA, and was spread across a wide range of topics and approaches. But a few things have become public through patents which I can cite and paraphrase below. Generally as a whole, a lot of the work I did involved detecting the mental state of users based on data from their body and brain when they were in immersive experiences. So, a user is in a mixed reality or virtual reality experience, and AI models are trying to predict if you are feeling curious, mind wandering, scared, paying attention, remembering a past experience, or some other cognitive state. And these may be inferred through measurements like eye tracking, electrical activity in the brain, heart beats and rhythms, muscle activity, blood density in the brain, blood pressure, skin conductance etc. There were a lot of tricks involved to make specific predictions possible, which the handful of patents I’m named on go into detail about. One of the coolest results involved predicting a user was going to click on something before they actually did. That was a ton of work and something I’m proud of. Your pupil reacts before you click in part because you expect something will happen after you click. So you can create biofeedback with a user's brain by monitoring their eye behavior, and redesigning the UI in real time to create more of this anticipatory pupil response. It’s a crude brain computer interface via the eyes, but very cool. And I’d take that over invasive brain surgery any day. Other tricks to infer cognitive state involved quickly flashing visuals or sounds to a user in ways they may not perceive, and then measuring their reaction to it. Another patent goes into details about using machine learning and signals from the body and brain to predict how focused, or relaxed you are, or how well you are learning. And then updating virtual environments to enhance those states. So, imagine an adaptive immersive environment that helps you learn, or work, or relax by changing what you’re seeing and hearing in the background. All of these details are publicly available in patents, and were carefully written to not leak anything. There was a ton of other stuff I was involved with, and hopefully more of it will see the light of day eventually. A lot of people have waited a long time for this product. But it’s still one step forward on the road to VR. And it’s going to take until the end of this decade for the industry to fully catch up to the grand vision for this tech. Again, I’m open to consulting work and taking calls if your business is looking to enter the space or refine your strategy. Mostly, I’m proud and relieved this has finally been announced. It’s been over five years since I started working on this, and I spent a significant portion of my life on it, as did an army of other designers and engineers. I hope the whole is greater than the sum of the parts and Vision Pro blows your mind.

@Veena_World facing pathetic customer service from your Pune / Deccan office. My mom has booked a tour but we have to followup with your executives for everything as if its our responsibility. No one is giving us complete information. #veenaworld

@volkswagenindia DMed

@vikrantlabde Hi Vikrant, we apologize for the inconvenience caused. We would like to address your concern at the earliest. For the same, we request you to share your concern here bit.ly/3wbLw5J Alternatively, you may DM us your contact details and e-mail address so we can get (1/2)

@bub_volkswagen @volkswagenindia facing pathetic after sales services by your dealer BU Bhandari in Pune. I left my Polo GT for servicing its been a week the car is not ready, service adviser called and said the battery needs to be replaced, so I asked him to change

#pathetic service @volkswagenindia

on that he said they don't have battery you can come back when we have the inventory, so went to pick the car but its not operational so I had to install external battery in the same workshop and now service adviser saying few parts damaged because of external battery.

Today another peer, who is 20 years younger, is retirering. I am looking in the mirror asking what is wrong with me? But there is still so much to be done, so much innovation around the corner. Us engineers have the most amazing jobs, we can create new meaningful things every day

When digital transformation fails, it is often because people and processes do not get the same attention as technology #digitaltransformation #innovationculture #technology

@shachinb @VIBGYORHighSchs - balewali. my daughter is here. atleast I am very happy the way online school is functioning. Teachers, technology and tools are good.

Any recommendations for schools that have got *online education* right (for grade 1 kids)? Looking for a school for my 5yr old son. Also considering teaching is online I am ok considering schools across India (not just Pune) Pls suggest. Thanks 🙏🏾

Strange - I've chosen #DigitalOcean droplet over #AWS lightsail to host a corp. site, a blog and a nodejs app. super easy launch application, super intuitive UX, Super cheap and easy to scale. Even over #Kubernetes infra. As easy as #heroku but way cheaper than #AWS #Azure #GCP
