Readit NewsSo yes, I also thought my Internet was broken :-)
But this won't happen because reduced battery life is a big direct and indirect(by reducing performance like Apple does with old iPhones) driver of phone upgrades.
Innovating more battery life and leaving 20% battery life on the table sounds extremely pointless for what costs 20-30$ a year but lets you use the device all day instead of just shutting before the end of the day.
Is there anyone in the same boat and are there ideas how I can make myself get good with at least one of these trending languages ?
smartphones are necessary to pay via UPI
smartphones--bank accounts--aadhaar card
in case of some low income workers, smartphones are not universal
in case of some migrant workers (including those that come from neighboring countries in search of jobs) .. aadhaar or bank account may not be immediately available
while digital payments are definitely becoming common cash is still accepted
in some cases autorikshaw drivers either avoided UPI (because something went wrong previously and their account went into negative balance ..so any payments they accept there will be swallowed by the app) ..or sometimes ask for cash as preferred mode because for them it is easier to spend immediately (sometimes even for sentimental reasons like first ride of the day)
Cash creates a problem of giving change that end up dissatisfying the customer or the customer just leaves. Only after UPI people understood this so now they want you to buy it as payments are not a hassle. Rickshaws in cities have lost interest in random hires. I have waited 45 minutes for rickshaws. Everyone is on Uber or Ola cause they will show up and say cancel the request and give me little less money instead. Pretty common. So they don’t have the option to say no to UPI. They try to give you reasons why it’s not working but they just want cash for obvious reasons.
UPI also allows people to have multiple accounts in family to accept payments. This way they can avoid any tax payments as small amounts in small villages are not scrutinised by the income tax department.
UPI has created more and easier transactions. Small village or big town, I’ve never seen a shop without a QR code in the last year or so.
Seems like you have a pet theory and don't want to consider others

The later works when you are not as big as Apple. When you are as big as Apple, you are a very hot target for attackers. There is always the effort vs reward when it comes to exploiting vulnerabilities. The amount of effort that goes into all this is worth thousands of dollars even if someone is doing it just for research. If I was doing this for some random aliexpress board it would be worth nothing and probably security by obscurity would mean no one really cares and the later part works here. But I wonder what Apple is thinking when they use obscurity cause people must start working on exploiting new hardware from day 1. You literally can get one on every corner in a city these days. Hardware Security by obscurity for example would be fine for cards sold by someone like nvidia to only some cloud customers and those are then assumed obsolete in a few years so even if someone gets those on eBay the reward is very low. iPhones on the other hand are a very consumer device and people hang on to their devices for very long.
