How apple music is steam ahead than Amazon Music

I use Amazon music for a long time and been big fan of it. However, with recent announcements from Apple Music, with integration of Dolby atmos has changed situation altogether and usage of Amazon music have become questionable due to following reasons. 

• Support for Dolby atmos & Spatial audio: Apple has announced that it’s entire catalogue of music will have Dolby atmos support before end of the year. However, Amazon music has not made official announcement or commitment on launch of Dolby support for its music catalogue. Just announcement of Dolby support for its music catalogue will not impact its users, until there is official commitment on enabling it for all users. 
• Siri integration: I understand that Amazon music has Alexa voice assistant and was on par with Siri on identifying songs. However, for Alexa voice assistant to work, the music application should be open and cannot be summoned when iPhone is idle or if application is closed. 

Hope Amazon addresses above concerns at the earliest, so its loyal users don’t think of switching to another music platform and continues to stay with Amazon music. For more such articles, please feel free to check out the G R Team Sites.

Frustrated with my Manager for not supporting me

It has been long time since I have spoken about my work and the day-to-day activities that happen at my office. So, I would like to take this opportunity to detail some interesting tidbits that happened to me at my office. Unfortunately, after long time, the entire team got pulled into a large opportunity to work and to my bad luck, my manager was also requested to support this request. Here comes the frustrating part of working with my manager, the Offshore delivery lead was making lousy comment, even before starting work on the large opportunity. I was pulled into the discussion into last minute and with no insights available, I was just listening the conversations happening on the opportunity. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the offshore delivery lead assigned for this opportunity to support, made a comment that he was looking some senior lead to support and do not want support from Team members like me. After this comment, I was expecting my manger to defend the team and give it back to the delivery lead for such comments, when everyone was around. However, my manger was blessing with him and was conveying that he himself will be available to support. To know more about how I was roasted in the large opportunity with my manger, please feel free to check out the blog posts in G R Team Sites.

The zombie apocalypse will still happen?

The Covid-19 virus can mutate under the influence of the chimpanzee adenovirus. In other words, doctors may face a new, unexplored and extremely dangerous phenomenon, which modern medicine will not be able to fight against – such data was given by virologists in the United States and Spain.

⁃ The scenario of the Spanish flu epidemic, which claimed 100 million lives only according to official data, may be repeated. When a common flu strain mutated under the influence of external factors into a real unmanageable monster, says James Kenwood, a virologist of the Minigan Institute of Bacteriology.

⁃ Now the situation can be repeated if we influence it with a vaccine produced, let’s say, following a questionable technology. We have no clear evidence that the interaction of, for example, chimpanzee adenovirus and COVID-19 will not mutate and amplify the virus. Therefore, mixing viruses with each other is the last thing you need to do now, -says a virologist.
