JKB | Hello
Smartians Before Smart Cars
Constructive criticism told with decency wins the heart of one sitting in your opposite. And one such meme or slang going viral that my country is not for beginners. It sounds funny but deep in the meme, the narration favors showing the lack of civic sense powered by ill governance. Not everything can be superimposed on technology and not every expectation can be met. Bringing a new technology and adopting that technology are two different pictures. One can't imagine every use case of a thing as simple as a mug or a needle. Similarly, expecting only desired outcomes is just throwing a dart in darkness.
It is not only about the technology but also the environment that supports and adapts it. For example, in my nation smartphone per person ratio is 103% in urban cities whereas 67% in rural areas. This data can show you and tell you a lot many things as there must be a decline in the recycling of old phones. Or more consumeristic tendencies in the urban area. Similarly, in rural areas the purchasing power is limited, or the money to spend after basic needs are short. So basically local government tries to supply smartphones under scholarships to connect the unconnected.
In the very same manner as per usage principle, smart cars are not much different than smartphones. Though their purposes are different and their adaptation requires an environment without which the growth will remain stagnant. Smart car requires an infrastructure -
- Proper roads suited to image analysis
- Rules and regulations for drivers using that road
- Smart aiding technologies like anti-water logging pumps, oil cleaning devices, margin & indicators, etc.
- Web of network and communication among the surrounding devices and smart objects
- Algorithms, software, and AI advancements and
- Most Importantly - Smartians aka Smart responsible people.
That is why my concern is not about the technology as it will outpace the advancements in comparison of driving behavior and standards. Smart cars do expect a controlled environment. Without this, no amount of coding, or analysis can help solve the problem of irresponsible driving. I know that someday my roads will be up to the mark, street lights will be intact on their position, and the camera will be up there with his friend AI finding the mischiefs but what if the people don't develop themselves for adaptation?
What if the best of governance and people aren't able to provide the environment, will the tech survive? Will there be any use of R&D? Will people and government as a unit of the economy be able to reach the peak of its productivity?
The progress in smart car tech is amazing but despite the advancement poor infra and poor civic sense, no community will be able to utilize it. Hence for me, smartians are the core requirement for the adaptation followed by infra and governance. Awareness and transition will happen one way or another as one says - if there is a will, there will be a way.

You are correct...many tools already in cars need proper roads demarkation such as lanes well painted...here where I live now it is nice...but I remember in Brazil in the past how awful it is.
Yeah, only a few hundred kms of road is compatible with smart cars in urban.

Why are you farming Splinterland vote with your alt account?

@bhattg most of this text likely AI
Hi, @azircon sorry if it seems like that way to you. But as discussed with the support staff, I separated my splinterland playing account and my general blog account. You can see I stopped participating from this account and the reason being is the mix of content. My intention and moral is not at all for farming vote. I have been on hive and steemit since 2017, and trust me I am more mindful towards the guidelines. I asked the same thing to the support team before starting to blog from other account.
If you need further clarification and verification I welcome you to my discord dm, there I can share the mail transcript and confirm the same that I am not hiding something or doing anything wrong. The actions you are seeing are only done after a thorough consideration with the support staff and my understandings.
And of course you can go ahead and run it with the AI analyser. All the content are my hand typed and the aid is of grammarly only. I am a sociologist and you can check my previous blogs if the content looks very formal or AI written. Again I will be pleased to co-operate with you in case of any misunderstanding. But tagging my friend and mentioning that it could be AI written is slightly demotivating for me.
If you want further verification about my intentions,I will be glad to tag my colleague @dlmmqb as he knows what a person I am and what I do. @bhattg bhai you can run AI analyser and can confirm the same.
Both these two individuals know who I am and they know how to reach me. If you are correct then there is nothing to worry about
Yes. That's the point. I will happily cooperate to clear the misunderstandings. I learned and understood hive from these credible sources only. And if I make any mistake I assure you it is completely unintentional and due to lack of awareness. Thank you.
Just a quick check on your wallet
Please read a few posts. It is your duty to read too, not just write
https://peakd.com/hive-167922/@slobberchops/are-you-on-hive-to-invest-or-to-milk-the-cash-cow
Tell me how you scored after reading this post. Please take your time. Also don’t try and patronize me. I have seen a lot.

I have no intention to patronize you. I am on unpaid internship and to meet my course fees and life expenses I need to power down. Sadly, not everyone in this world is having everyday a good day. But at the same time you can also observe that I am currently powering up too. Hive is not a milking cow for me. Also I will look through posts you mentioned here and reply to you back.
I will improve the red parameters. I did my self-reflection. I have no hesitation in admitting the acts which went against the hive morals. But I am here to learn as well and improve each day. And sorry to hive that I am not able to mark all parameters green which shows that I am short on a few things. My goal for the next three months is to mark them all green. Still, I want you to go a bit easy on me as I just exited a rough patch of my life and I am trying to get my shit together. So bear with me for the next 3 months and I will show the improvements.
That sounds good. Thank you for taking the test.
