How to run Android on any computer, just like Windows
Say you need to run Android apps on an actual computer, be it a laptop or a desktop. What do you do? One option starting this week will be to download Remix OS and run it free of charge on whatever PC you might have around the house. We’ve talked about the operating system in the past. Remix OS is an Android fork that brings over a Windows-like Android experience. Jide, the company founded by former Googlers, manufactured special hardware for Remix OS, but it has decided to make the operating system available free of charge for anyone looking to run Android on their computer.
Starting January 12th, you’ll be able to download Remix OS from Jide, and then run it on any x86 computer.
You’ll need an FAT32 USB 3.0 flash drive with at least 8GB of free storage on it, and that’s it. Just restart your computer and boot directly from that USB drive. At that point, you’ll run Android on your computer, complete with an interface that will remind you of good old Windows. Take the drive with you and you’ll have an Android computer in your pocket that will work on most x86 PCs out there. And yes, before you ask, it’ll even work on some Macs.
You’ll be able to log into your Google account, install apps, and do everything else you’d do on a smartphone or tablet running Android. But you’ll do it with the help of a keyboard and mouse. For now, you’ll get access to Remix OS 2.0 based on Lollipop, but a Marshmallow version should follow.
If you want to be a successful blogger, here are five qualities
If you want to be a successful blogger, here are five qualities I believe you must possess:
1. Successful Bloggers are Marathoners, Not Sprinters
Anyone can be a successful blogger, but unless you’re already a celebrity, there’s no such thing as overnight blogging success. It takes hard work, sweat and more hard work. It may be a few months before you ever see a penny from your hours of labor invested into your blog.
2. Successful Bloggers Have Incredible Passion
If you don’t think you could write three posts per week for the next two years on your chosen blog topic, you need to choose a different topic or a different work-at-home idea.
3. Successful Bloggers are Self-Starters
It’s great to learn from others, but if you want to be spoon-fed, you won’t succeed. Roll up your sleeves, start digging and researching: read books on blogging, read articles on blogging, read blogs on blogging, watch bloggers who are successfully blogging and do your own experimentation.
The last words of Steve Jobs What is the world's most expensive bed?
The hospital bed. You, if you have money, you can hire someone to drive your car, but you cannot hire someone to take your illness that is killing you. Material things lost can be found. But one thing you can never find when you lose: life. Please treasure your family love, love for your spouse, love for your friends... Treat everyone well and stay friendly with your.
Déclaration du premier ministre du Canada à l’occasion de la Journée nationale des Autochtones
Ottawa (Ontario)
Le premier ministre Justin Trudeau a fait aujourd’hui la déclaration suivante à l’occasion
de la Journée nationale des Autochtones :
« Aujourd’hui, en cette Journée nationale des Autochtones, nous rendons hommage et célébrons le patrimoine exceptionnel et les réalisations remarquables des peuples autochtones du Canada, et de les célébrer.
« La Journée nationale des Autochtones est d’abord et avant tout une occasion de reconnaître que les Premières Nations, les Métis et les Inuits ont joué – et continuent
à jouer – un rôle fondamental en façonnant l’identité de tous les Canadiens. Aux quatre coins du pays, leur apport culturel et artistique, leurs vastes contributions et leur histoire sont essentiels à notre sentiment national.
« Les événements des derniers mois, y compris les suicides et le désespoir que vivent certaines communautés, nous rappellent que nous devons travailler en véritables partenaires avec les peuples autochtones, les provinces et les territoires, afin de mieux soutenir le bien-être des enfants et des familles, d’améliorer la qualité de l’éducation des élèves autochtones et d’offrir des services de santé qui répondent aux besoins des communautés autochtones.

9 branding design principles
Designers are often mediators. They can be found between two worlds: companies and their end-users. When designing for brand purposes, designers need to feel what both sides need, and step out of their comfort zone in order to think of the best solution for the brand and help corporate ID communication process start successfully.
If you are still unfamiliar with the concept of branding design, keep reading to find out the nine principles of this special kind of design.
What is branding?
Branding is the process of identification of a company in the eyes of the consumers. Using different brand management techniques, brands send a message by creating their unique name, logo, tagline or slogan, graphics, shapes (such as packaging), colors, sounds, scents, tastes, movements, etc. which all work together and form brand awareness and, in many cases, prestige on the market.
When designing for brand purposes, designers need to have many things in mind, such as brand history, mission, and vision, which all need to be incorporated into brand identity, such as logo, business card, memo, social media branding, packaging design, etc.
Branding follows a certain set of rules, which are defined as the principles of branding design.
Principles of branding design:
1. Design is brand
This sentence has never been truer than now. In 2016, when the majority of big brands take the social media call, branding and design became so close that they are now inseparable. If you want to be noticed, you are going to need smart design, the one which unifies all branding features and incorporates them into a unique branding strategy across channels — both print, digital, and social.
2. Integration
Even though they emerged as two different disciplines, design and branding need to be integrated if you want them to be effective. A product cannot do without its brand image, and brand image is nothing without design. Only good companies flourish with proper design, and even if you take away their logos and ID, they are still good, just without personality. And personality attracts people
3. Understanding the brand
The more you know, the better you are as an expert. This is true when it comes to the design process. If a designer does not understand your company’s core values, your deepest origins and the mission of your product or service, the design process and the end-product might fall short of a great story behind it. Only truly good designers can make majestic things if they have all the pieces connected together so that they form a rad image
