Water was once free now you need to buy it

Water was once free
++

The provision of clean water to industrialised cities was one of the great social accomplishments of modernity, massively reducing the urban death rate. In the 19th century, the free drinking fountain reflected that sense of achievement: itself, both a useful service and a public monument, an ostentatious celebration of society’s ability to supply the basic necessities of life.

By 1930, bottled water was perceived as a symbol of backwardness, since it suggested your house or workplace hadn’t been connected to the public supply.

Are you still annoyed by looking for the toilet when you are shopping in the mall, walking down the street, or on your way to do business (pun unintended)?

China is now at your fingertips with a cool app -- "Toilet Sharing (????)." Registered users choose to share their bathroom and make city-living easier.

Looie, a new app servicing user-pays toilets, is making a splash. As bottled water did to drinking fountains, are free amenities destined to fight a rearguard action?
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/aug/21/like-uber-for-toilets-how-the-sharing-economy-forces-a-movement-towards-privatisation

 Looie: it’s like Uber, but for bodily functions. Looie is a new app that promises you access (for a fee, naturally) to private bathrooms, all of which have been certified for hygiene and cleanliness.

To keep the public out of its privies, rail magnates took to restricting access, first with a key and later via coin-operated locks. The technology quickly spread, as other corporations seized the chance to make big money from the littlest room.

Gordon estimates that, by 1970, America had over 50,000 pay toilets, scattered throughout airports, bus depots and other public places.

When the private toilet owners defended their businesses, they did so in terms that implicitly echoed Ceptia’s sense of what was at stake. In Chicago, store owners called charging for toilets “a constitutional right”; Nik-O-Lok and American Coil Lock Company (the two biggest manufacturers of toilet door mechanisms) claimed that their products “discourage drug addicts, homosexuals, muggers and just plain hippies from haunting public restrooms”.

Paying the bus ticket without cash is now possible thanks to a new payment system invented by the Wul4 company. This system, pioneer in the world, uses Google Glass to scan a QR code, which would work as a ticket, generated by an app. There are already several big cities interested in this system, as for example New York, that intends to apply it in the New Jersey route.

Lack of planning causes procrastination

http://calnewport.com/blog/2011/07/10/the-procrastinating-caveman-what-human-evolution-teaches-us-about-why-we-put-off-work-and-how-to-stop/
This perspective also helps us cope with procrastination beyond graduation. Why do we delay on ambitious projects that could change our life for the better? The common explanation from the blogosphere is because we’re afraid of failure and lack courage.

The evolutionary perspective on procrastination, by contrast, says we delay because our frontal lobe doesn’t see a convincing plan behind our aspiration. The solution, therefore, is not to muster the courage to blindly charge ahead, but to instead accept what our brain is telling us: our plans need more hard work invested before they’re ready.

For now, I want to leave you with the general idea that procrastination is not your enemy. It is instead a constructive source of criticism — a voice from our paleolithic past telling us that although it likes our goals, we need to put a little bit more thought into how we’re going to get there.

If this warning system was good enough to prevent mammoth trampling, it’s certainly good enough to help you finish your term paper without pulling an all-nighter.

I introduced a dubious evolutionary explanation for an otherwise very real phenomenon: procrastination, in my experience, is not a character flaw, but instead evidence that you don’t have a believable plan for succeeding at what you’re trying to do.

http://calnewport.com/blog/2011/07/15/how-to-cure-deep-procrastination/
“Because that’s what you’re supposed to do,” the rational brain responds.

But the ancient brain doesn’t do well with abstract societal values, which are a recent addition to humankind on the scale of evolutionary time. One way to understand deep procrastination, therefore, is as a rejection of an ambiguous, abstract answer to the key question of why you’re going through the mental strain required by the college experience.

And this is where the problem occurs.
http://calnewport.com/blog/2011/07/15/how-to-cure-deep-procrastination/


My experience has revealed that there are two types of procrastination. The first, which I’ll call light procrastination, is the standard resistance to shutting down e-mail or turning off the TV that we all feel. I’ve posted before on hacking this issue; simple tricks, like working according to a regular schedule, starting early rather than late, and keeping yourself well-fed.
http://calnewport.com/blog/2008/07/14/monday-master-class-stop-procrastinating-by-making-it-easier-to-procrastinate/

The real monster, however, is what I call deep procrastination. This is a state, reached by an alarming number of students, in which the pressure of starting at the absolute last minute becomes necessary to motivate any work. Students who suffer from deep procrastination pull frequent all-nighters and are often found begging for extensions on assignments they couldn’t bring themselves to begin before the deadline.

Initially, there will be at least two gates equipped with the “scan, pay and pass” services at each station, while the operator will further extend it to more gates and introduce new payment providers in the future.

With the Indian bus service Shuttl, for example, using audio for contactless ticketing means the app
https://ride.shuttl.com/
can be used even by customers who don’t have NFC or Bluetooth-enabled phones.

NFC stands for Near-Field Communication  and used in Apple iphon's i pay that could detect a phone withiin 4 inhces. so security well.

Tez india by Google
https://tez.google.com/

Pay nearby

Use Cash Mode to send money instantly to another Tez user nearby without needing to share private details like your bank account or phone number. Now you can transact with the simplicity of cash, but with added security.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKRlDU9sw18

Cash Mode is the most talked feature of Google Tez app. And it is perhaps the best feature too. Because it lets you make payments in only a couple of taps. All other things on the app are almost the same as other UPI apps. But cash mode is what makes Tez a unique UPI app
https://upipayments.co.in/google-tez-cash-mode-payments/

Google has introduced its Audio QR technology with Tez app. In Audio QR, one device communicates with other using audio signals. And this is the same case with Tez app. When you use cash mode, the device transmits ultrasound signals using the speaker. And the another device receives and reads these signals to identify the sender of these signals.

Steps to make payments using cash mode.

    Launch the Tez app and log into it using the unlock method you have set.
    Now swipe up the big white button at the middle that has Tez logo on it.
    Tell the recipient to swipe down the same button on his/her phone.
    After swiping, wait for 5-10 seconds until your phone reads the signals transmitted by recipient’s phone.
    When your phone successfully reads the signals, it will take you the payments page.
    Enter the amount and details of the payment and tap proceed to pay button.
    Enter your UPI PIN and done. Your payment is now completed. Wasn’t it fast and easy?
The payer may ask your Google account name to confirm the account. Tell him/her your account name. When you receive the payment, the app will take you out of the cash mode automatically. You may also receive a notification about the payment completion.

https://www.theverge.com/2017/9/18/16325004/tez-google-india-audio-qr-cash-payments
Cash Mode works with any phone with a mic and speaker and Tez app installed, and doesn’t require an NFC chip. Google’s Audio QR technology is similar to Chirp, which also sends data encoded in ultrasonic audio.

https://www.theverge.com/2017/1/26/14398250/audio-over-data-chirp-iot-internet-of-things
Sending data encoded in audio has some unique advantages (and disadvantages)

It’s an engaging idea, sending data via audio, but using sound to do the job of Bluetooth or NFC comes with a unique set of pros and cons.

What is NFC?
https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/nfc-explained/

NFC stands for Near-Field Communication and allows phones, tablets, and laptops to share data with other NFC-equipped devices. The technology evolved from radio-frequency identification (RFID) tech. RFID is behind those security scan cards that get you into the office every day or bypass that tollbooth on your morning commute.

NFC is very much like RFID, but NFC is limited to communication within about four inches, which is why you have to hold your phone so close to the contactless reader if you’re using Apple Pay or Samsung Pay. Most people consider NFC’s small radius a major security benefit and it’s one of the reasons that NFC is taking off as a secure alternative to credit cards. The technology can be used for more than making purchases at Bloomingdales, however. NFC can transfer data like videos, contact information, and photos between two NFC-enabled devices.

In a city with 10 million cars, two IIT grads are helping commuters leave their vehicles at home

The company now runs 450 air-conditioned buses that ply along 75 routes connecting areas across Delhi. It offers some 20,000 rides a day from 300 pick-up points. Passengers must book seats on the company’s app, paying between Rs50 (80 cents) and Rs80 ($1.2), depending on the route. There are also daily and monthly plans, priced between Rs250 ($3.8) and Rs2,000 ($31).

And all this has resonated with customers: Seats are often sold out 24 hours in advance, thanks to the large client base Shuttl has already built.

User will be verified by his mobile no like uber. Additionally user  has to provide his facebook id or last four digit of national id. Facebook id may be collected through his like or he would be asked simply to copy paste the likn from his profile homepage. It will be a double check.

At bus, one may share his gps location for others could track him or her. Besides, at night buses, night vision camera with live feed may be added like shuttlr.

One may book via website or call center. In that case he needs to bring his mobile for verification by simply calling by the contactor and last four digith of his national id would be matched.
