Opposed to both. I should have been clearer. As the parent comment appears to assume that the decisions taken by the government in Kashmir are tied to the terrorism in the valley as opposed to being mere line items in their manifesto that s

Let's not push the narrative of Kashmir being peaceful after the abrogation of Article 370 without any meaningful metric for the same.

Not that I disagree with what you're saying but can you please clarify what you mean by "third-world approach"? It seems to imply some sort of inferiority compared to "first-world".

I feel this is much more applicable to SRE and Ops Engineers where performing, rehearsing and practicing is much more applicable. Where I work, SRE work on their own tooling that is synonymous to releasing. They rehearse in the form of cond

Thank you for sharing this! I have always organized my directories similar to concepts explained here but the introducing of decimals adds that extra attribute that helps with searching records in the future. I started organizing my local f

Isn't what you described an example of how buses work. I know very little about the state of public transport in SF but if it was better won't it solve what Chariot tried to do?

Where exactly are these unwritten tipping laws written? I've been living in US for the last one year and I feel that the entire tipping culture is a social custom that you are expected to adhere by. I was told that I should always

I probably don't understand their architecture well enough since they don't try and explain it in detail. The blame is also put on microservices whereas it's the architecture that can be fixed to improve performance and the c

Something very similar had happened to me at my previous company. Our team was not as small as yours, rather pretty big. So the story goes something like this. I was given stocks after having worked there for around six months. Their ration

I have always wanted to build something like this since I was a kid. The biggest driving thought was to make traffic signals dynamic and build a central communication system for a city's transport. Really glad to see a product coming i

I started development actively in 2010. At that time I was in my first year of college doing Mechanical Engineering which I didn't grasp really well. So, I ended up putting all my time into development. The first thing I built was a sm

I have worked on and off on a small developer oriented CMS based on PHP, but I could never get myself to work on it continuously. If I had half a year, I would develop the CMS which I could easily customise to write applications faster.

I see it is a pretty useless package because switching to Stack Overflow once in a while isn't a big productivity hit for me. I would prefer not having anything except my project code on my window.

I tried Aviate but the UI made me uncomfortable. This launcher looks great to me. Will give it a try soon.

This is a common practice for such pre-releases. Though they could have added the APK on the Google Play store but then they will have to introduce a new internal API where they keep a check on the pre-release users. Can be done but I think

The decision you all made is very logical because it doesn't make sense if all of you leave your business for pitching to a fund. I am not saying that the pitching part is not important but you are already running your company for 2 ye

I can understand when you say that $1500 x 300+ is a great amount they are investing at the cost of running their firm. While this is very important, we should not overlook the way the entire process is conducted (at least this is what I ga
