LOVE presents a brand new way to communicate face-to-face with your friends and family. At its core, the product is a new take on video and audio messaging, video calling, and more. Christopher Schlaeffer, NYOUM’s Founder and Executive Chairman, said:

“LOVE is the culmination of working with the most extraordinary artists, technologists and designers to re-define how we communicate on the internet. Communication is about visual expression, speech and human connection. With those closest to you. And our technology caters for exactly that.”

LOVE focuses on video communication, innovates on visual expression supported by the world’s leading artists, replaces the keyboard as a human-machine interface by multi-modality, transcribes speech and translates into 50+ languages on the recipient’s end. The Company’s Co-Founder and CEO, Samantha Radocchia (‘Sam Rad’), commented:

“It is clear that the first promises of the internet have fallen short. Communication should have been enhanced by moving online. And yet, it hasn’t. Messengers are still very much like SMS, just free and faster, video calls are far from enjoyable, and social media have made communication impersonal, or even unsafe. We are on a bold mission with LOVE: a mission to restore connections and transcend boundaries, a mission to create a magical space for those closest to you, a mission to build a better internet. No ads, no likes, just a place where you can be unapologetically you.”

LOVE is ad-free, built to protect privacy and enact the right to forget. The initiative is committed to democratizing the platform by transferring ownership to its users within five years. Timm Kekeritz, the Company’s Co-Founder and Chief Design Officer, commented:

“Our goal is to make communication as simple as possible, liberating LOVE’s users from the confines of the keyboard, and creating an environment where a person can convey not only the content but also the essence of a conversation.”

LOVE’s technology stack is based on transformative AI in the domains of voice and face recognition, natural language processing, privacy and encryption, contextual analytics, and translation algorithms in order to make user interaction extremely simple. Jim Reeves, NYOUM’s Co-Founder and CTO, said:

“Many of the technologies we are incorporating into LOVE didn’t exist 2 years ago. It is one of the most exciting challenges as a technologist to be building with and innovating on the cutting edge of what’s possible.”

Hans-Ulrich Obrist, curator and artistic director at the Serpentine Galleries, London, added:

“LOVE is the future. I am excited that international artists like Ed Fornieles have engaged to shape this new democratic platform.”

The messaging interface of LOVE is built to resemble a high-tech, multimodal walkie-talkie. All a person needs to do to communicate is hit “start,” record a message, and hit “stop.” They then select a friend and hit send. The message is transcribed in real time, so the recipient can watch, listen, or read the message. Video calling is just as interesting, incorporating a physics engine to power a playful calling experience with one or many.

Is Coding Hard To Learn? https://devstyler.io/blog/2021/07/12/is-coding-hard-to-learn/ Mon, 12 Jul 2021 15:23:56 +0000 https://devstyler.io/?p=58956 ...]]> Learning to code takes a good amount of time and persistence, but if you have those then we guarantee you’ll get there.

Is computer programming hard to learn?’ To answer this question, you need to consider several factors, including:

  • What particular programming language would you like to learn?
  • Is it categorized as an easy-to-learn language or is it one of the more complex ones?
  • Given its level of complexity, do you have the time to spend learning the language?
  • What program would you like to design or develop?

The Easiest Coding Languages to Learn and Their Uses

When you’re beginning your studies to become a computer programmer, it’s best not to bite off more than you can chew. Trying to learn a complex and difficult programming language before you’ve mastered the easier ones can be a frustrating experience. It can also result in you giving up right away.

Give yourself the best chance to succeed by starting with an easier language. You’ll be surprised by how easy it is to learn computer programming! Here are some easier, high-level languages to learn.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language)

If you want a relatively painless entry into Programmerland, you can always start with learning to code in HTML. This language is invaluable for web design.

Python

This beginner-friendly language has simple, easy-to-read syntax, which makes it a great first language to learn. It’s for these reasons that Python is among the well-loved languages of data scientists and programmers. That translates to companies as well. Google, Wikipedia, NASA, and Yahoo! are among the many organizations that use Python.

JavaScript

Don’t forget to study JavaScript. It’s the Swiss army knife of coding languages and it’s easy to pick up. JavaScript is a versatile language. It can be used on both the front end and the back end of a web page for a better user experience and interface design.

Edtech Startup Nalanda Learning Systems Raises Rs 40 Crore From Aavishkaar Capital https://devstyler.io/blog/2021/07/12/edtech-startup-nalanda-learning-systems-raises-rs-40-crore-from-aavishkaar-capital/ Mon, 12 Jul 2021 13:54:26 +0000 https://devstyler.io/?p=58937 ...]]> Edtech startup Nalanda Learning Systems has raised Rs 40 crore from Aavishkaar Capital to expand operations nationally, its chief executive said on Wednesday.

The startup owns the ‘Little Laureates’ brand, under which it runs pre-schools across Eastern India. Tamal Mukherjee, the CEO of Nalanda Learning Systems said:

“We have raised Rs 40 crore from Aavishkaar Capital to fund our drive to expand nationally using digital content. The pandemic has reshaped the education market. While it has accelerated the adoption of education technologies, the benefits have been limited to a small section of the society.”

According to Mukherjee, Nalanda intends to not only ensure sustained learning and development outcomes for children, but also enable the pre-schooling industry to revive and upskill, and provide comprehensive, contemporary and early learning programmes. Ajay Maniar, partner at Aavishkaar Capital added:

“We are extremely excited to continue partnering with Nalanda as it expands its high-quality pedagogy across India through its digital platform. The Nalanda team has shown great dexterity in reimagining the pre-schooling business and have been able to translate their high-quality pedagogy into a highly impactful business proposition for pre-school owners, teachers and parents.”
