Trying to work on people's believe system is not so easy as the persons had already assume how things should be. Well, a man that stops learning is on his way to say good bye to the mother Earth, life is a process and we progress by doing new things or discovering new ways of doing things. This brings me to the topic of the day, *how I will convince someone of 1960's about the importance of smartphone.

Those in the primitive age does not believe one should spend so much fortune in trevial things their minds always heads towards investment on properties and sometimes good food. I have two stories of how I was able to convince my mother and my mother inlaw on the importance of using smart gadget's.

You can remember in my last publication on Monday I spoke of how I lost my laptop which I got for the purpose of my project in school. Now I was left with no other option than to use my smart phone to source for material's for my project. My mother will not want to hear anything relating to buying new laptop. After my school work, it was now my younger siblings turn to face what I faced then I opened opened up to her that this phone we hold is not just meant for calls. I made her understand that it helps to save time and energy, the time and money one use in going to the library can be used to get data and access information and more online. Well, my Mom was not so difficult to convince because at least she believe in laptop and our last born got an award of a laptop when he was still in the secondary school, also looking practically from my own experience she gave in.

Coming to my mother inlaw, it was not really easy first it's a different environment and most people here believe in physical work and enjoy using cheap articles. Recently my husband's phone had calibrator issue so we had to make use of one phone. When she enquired of how much it will cost for the phone to be fixed I told her 10k naira , she shouted. Then I took the time to make her understand that this phone she is looking at is an office. Most people now don't need to go to the physical office to make ends meet. Reluctantly she accepted what I said because I brought many instances to convince her.

*Do you know why many from the 1960's don't believe in smart phone?* It has been recorded that many fraudulent activities are being carried out with phone. There are even those of much younger age who do not believe that something positive can be done with this phone that profits you and I. Few weeks back I was conversing with a young lady she said that most things they do online is Yahoo Yahoo. I was like, that's because you have not met the correct and current platforms.

My advice now is, for we that have the write knowledge we can do well to keep informing people of the importance of this smartphone, let's be the example and keep telling people the good ways that exits with smartphone. Also let's look away from the negative ways

This is my entry for the hive learner's contest week 64 edition 2. Thank you for visiting my blog dear ones, see you in the next edition.

*Bye*

Lisa Simpson is one interesting character I honestly haven't had enough time to explore when it comes to drawing or painting mediums. I think mainly this is because Homer's my favorite but then, that doesn't justify it.

I tried making something of this reference sometime last year but to another effect. Funny thing is, I'd made this one about two months ago but totally forgot it was there.

On May 30, 1806, Andrew Jackson faced Charles Dickinson in a duel:

"

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni ignored the condemnations from other nations and signed a law that makes gay sex punishable by 10 years in prison, while anyone convicted of “aggravated homosexuality” will face execution.

He posed as a child on Facebook to prey on children. This story raises severe questions about the vetting procedures for individuals who are trusted with the responsibility of caring for vulnerable children.

Outside this country, Nigeria, people complain of police brutality and they brag of how honest their armed forces are but in Nigeria, it is worst.

*WELCOME TO NIGERIA MY COUNTRY*

The forces are meant to protect the people of a given locality against themselves and foreign invaders and this responsibility is first in their life, however in my country, things aren't how they seem.

I have an experience with some police people in Abiriba and to be honest, after that day, I prefer jungle justice to submitting criminals to police irrespective of the fact that jungle justice is illegal. Jungle justice basically means taking the laws into your hands and passing out punishment.


HAVE YOU EVER HAD AN EXPERIENCE WITH A MEMBER OF THE FORCE?


I have had an experience with the force and it was not funny, to be honest.

After that day, I became very much angered at the sight of any police force and I preferred taking laws into my hands.


WHAT LED TO THE ALTERCATION?

Few months ago, I was in my lodge relaxing on a weekend, then I decided to go to a phone charging center to plug my phone. When I was passing through my school, I noticed that our school gardener was being beaten by the students and when I asked why, they told me that the guy stole from them.

They said that he went into the boys hostel and stole the phones and power banks of the hostel dwellers. When I asked why he (the gardener) was the primary suspect, they told me that he brought in a new face into the school a day before the theft, and the gardener was going round the school and he even entered the girls hostel. Then they said that they saw a students power bank in his possession which he wrapped with a labour party flyer, and he claimed that it was his brothers own, but a student confirmed ownership of the power bank through the aid of the power banks receipt after unwrapping it.

A civil defence officer saw what was happening and intervened, the officer said that we should take him to the police station, which we did. On our way to the police station, some persons in including me was kicking against the action, but I couldn't stop him because he is an officer and our home sister agreed to take the gardener to be police station.

When we got there, the police was always saying "pay this, pay that" and the police men and women started their "protocols," saying that we should do some paper works and write down police statement which we did. The victim testified to the police in how the thing went and why he was the primary suspect but what the police said was that "we should go back to school, they will come to school to check us, and still do their investigation."

When they said this, I knew something was off, so I collect the number of their A.S.P. I called him in the evening of that day same day, I called the ASP to remind him of their coming but what he told me was that his boys was not around, they went to another movement, and they will be with me shortly. I said okay, and then I ended the call.

I allowed him for that day, and I called him the next day, but he told me that he was busy, and will call me back later... What I told him was: if nothing is done by the police, we the students will go for a protest and carry out jungle justice if the gardener is released without provider the lost phones and power banks. After saying that, the ASP of police said that I should calm down, they have things under control.

*Enjoying it yeah?*

*Okay, let's ride on*


HOW WAS IT SETTLED?

After all trials and error with the police, the information we heard from our home sister was that the gardener was placed on bail out. When we heard this, we became very mad at the home sister and threatened to do what was on our mind but the home sister was begging us to calm down.

*Look at me flaring up, but none of my stuff was stolen*

Anyways, I was Soo disappointed in the police and I couldn't bring my self to call the ASP of police. My morale quenched when our principal called us and begged us to calm down and forget about things which we did to respect her and the image of nursing.

With this my experience, I resorted to believing in jungle justice but I know I can't hurt a fly though. I was sooo, bittered that the gardener was not brought to justice but instead, the police was only interested in the bail money.

INTRODUCTION


Greetings everyone and welcome to my post.

The world has been automated in he sense that everything these days can be gotten with just a click. Pressing a button could destroy a country and pressing a button could also repair a country.

Humans have passed through many stages throughout existence and this stage is another phase in the history of humans which have made us digitalized and powerful. Everything could be accomplished with just a phone, that's how far technology has gotten us.

Apps are one important aspect in the era of technological development as it helps make things very much easier, faster, as well as it entertains us and help us meet new people. Through apps, we could order things only while sitting on our couch, we could sponsor anything of our choice and we could work from home, just as how hive have made it easier for us.

Before I go into answering the first question of this contest, I am a person who loves charity. Irrespective of how bad I can be, I don't play with helping others in any way I can and that's why I am a nurse. Nurses are great, but "with great power comes great responsibility."


WHAT APP WILL YOU CREATE?


If I were to create an app, I will create an app which will be used for affiliating the importance of charity and in that app, there will be a space for charitable donations.
Yeah

WHY THAT PARTICULAR APP?


Img src
I have been opportuned to live in the northern and eastern part of Nigeria my country and well, from the things I have seen so far, I wouldn't want the nation to continue like that. There was a day I was walking through the streets of Jabi in Abuja Nigeria, the homeless people I saw there made me motivated to become great in life. Not that I am dodging from being like them, but because I want to help being out some of those persons from the streets, and impact my values and views about charity in them, so that they can carry on with it and still bring other persons from the streets and still impact that same value to them and so on.
On this note, charity is hard these days because of distance, and some other factor. However, making use of the importance of technology, donations could reach even the deepest forest through this app and many people will be happy and lead a good life filled with joy. Charity could be in any form, but financial charity backed up with teaching a new skill, could take a person to the farthest extent there is.

WHAT GOOD WILL THE APP DO?

This app will go on its way to fund diverse charity organizations into moving and helping many unprivileged people out there.

In my country, the rate of unemployment is as high as the sands of the beach, but with this app, both skills and financial charity could be rendered to many people out there, thus reducing the rate of corruption and joblessness, thereby increasing the rate of self employment and employment as a whole.
In conclusion, Charity could help uplift a nation, according to Darrman, "the kindness you out into the world, has a way of returning to you" and as such, putting a little kindness into this world, will help in its way to elevate the positivity in a persons heart, thereby reducing future negativities.
Thank you for reading through.

The trustworthiness of Bitcoin, a decentralized digital currency, is a complex topic that warrants careful analysis. To evaluate whether one would still trust Bitcoin if it were to experience a drastic crash in value, such as plummeting to $300, it is essential to consider various factors, including the underlying technology, historical context, market dynamics, and individual perspectives.
Fundamental Technology:
Bitcoin is built on blockchain technology, which provides transparency, immutability, and security. The technology's integrity remains intact irrespective of short-term price fluctuations. Supporters of Bitcoin argue that its underlying technology remains robust even during price crashes, reinforcing their trust in the long-term viability of the cryptocurrency.
Historical Perspective:
Bitcoin has witnessed multiple price crashes throughout its existence. Notably, the cryptocurrency experienced a significant decline from its all-time high in late 2017 to a low point in early 2019. Despite this decline, Bitcoin has shown resilience and a propensity to recover and reach new heights. Past recoveries and subsequent price appreciation may influence individuals' trust in Bitcoin, as they perceive such crashes as temporary setbacks.
Market Dynamics:
Bitcoin's market dynamics are influenced by various factors, including supply and demand, investor sentiment, regulatory developments, and macroeconomic conditions. Sudden drops in price can be triggered by factors such as negative news, regulatory uncertainty, or market manipulation. Analyzing the specific reasons behind a crash to $300 is crucial for assessing the trustworthiness of Bitcoin. If the crash is driven by market manipulation or temporary external factors, individuals may maintain trust in Bitcoin's long-term potential.
Risk Tolerance and Investment Strategy:
An individual's trust in Bitcoin during a $300 crash will depend on their risk tolerance and investment strategy. Those with higher risk tolerance and a long-term investment horizon might see the crash as an opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin at a discounted price, believing in its eventual recovery. Conversely, individuals with lower risk tolerance or short-term investment goals might lose trust in Bitcoin and perceive it as a highly volatile and unreliable asset.
Fundamental Value and Adoption:
Bitcoin's trustworthiness is also influenced by its fundamental value and adoption. Supporters argue that Bitcoin's scarcity, decentralized nature, and potential for disruption in traditional finance provide a solid foundation for trust, irrespective of short-term price fluctuations. Additionally, the growing adoption of Bitcoin by individuals, institutions, and governments can reinforce trust in the cryptocurrency's long-term potential, even in the face of a price crash.
Conclusion:
Determining whether one would still trust Bitcoin if it crashed to $300 is a subjective decision influenced by various factors. While price crashes can test investor confidence, it is crucial to assess the underlying technology, historical patterns, market dynamics, risk tolerance, and individual investment strategies. Bitcoin's long-term potential, fundamental value, and adoption rates also play a significant role in shaping trust. Ultimately, each individual must carefully evaluate these factors to make an informed decision about their trust in Bitcoin during periods of extreme price volatility.
