appmover: what are sponsorship models and what makes them unique?

Many young people are already using appmover as a reliable mode for reaching their homes safely via hired cars or taxis. By availing appmover services, they receive subsidies for their fares. 

Particularly attractive: the more people using the appmover at the same time, the higher the subsidy granted. Each appmover user will receive an individual subsidy for their journey, quickly adding up to their savings. These subsidies are sponsored, mostly by local authorities or administrative districts. However, further subsidy increases are possible if additional sponsors contribute, allowing appmover users to travel free of charge.

What will be the impact of a shortage of skilled workers on passenger transportation?

A shortage of skilled workers in numerous sectors is currently a topic of substantial debate. Sectors such as healthcare, social services, teaching and education, construction, surveying, and building services engineering are often specifically emphasised. Nevertheless, it becomes evident rapidly that the prevailing issue also affects other sectors, including passenger transportation.

Passenger transport is a significant economic sector that plays a key role in population mobility, tourism and freight transport. As per a report by the Association of German Transport Companies (VDV), it is anticipated that by 2030 there would be a shortage of approximately 100K qualified workers in passenger transport, including drivers for buses and trains, as well as service personnel. This, in turn, will arguably have a detrimental effect on the quality and dependability of services, safety, and environmental preservation.

What's the best long term storage media? - Tips to avoid losing data

Why is storing and backing up your data so important? Initially, we may consider the fact that, there are different types of data being stored on our modern devices, varying in their significance and emotional or financial values for the user. Many data, such as program files, operating systems, mobile applications, and other kind of software can be redownloaded and reinstalled after suffering data loss. Sure, the process of reinitializing may be a hustle, but for the most part users can restore the previous state before the data loss had occurred. Still, some programs, apps or documents may not be accessible anymore because they have been taken down from the source they were downloaded from. This is where it starts getting tricky – but it doesn’t end here. Some (private) data may be relicts of once-in-a-lifetime memories. Once gone, you can’t reconstruct or repeat them. Prominent examples for these data are pictures, videos, private documents, voice recordings, and so on. So, it seems super important to make sure backing them up and to preserve them for a very long period of time.
