Thanks, I see your point. I see how I could have been less caustic and personal in the choice of words and phrases. I don't think it ever got to the point of getting the label of being abusive. Again, I appreciate you taking out the ti

Terrorist and their sympathizers will be affected if demonetization happens again, like anyone else who has cash. The bigger question is whether it has helped in curtailing the menace.

It's also fucked up because a vast majority of the people who come via this route are rich kids with parents ready to back them up with cash if shit hits the fan. Lower middle class/lower class students usually don't even dre

Starting in your mid-30s, you can get a family, get a job, start making money and eventually get to the 2-3x. Sure, you'll be late to the party, but you'll make it. Moreover, it's going to be a looooong party. Does it really

This could be really helpful for implementations that were written with relatively smaller datasets in mind but now need to be scaled up. However, for someone starting from scratch, it is not clear what advantages do they plan to offer agai
