In Australia you will get a fine and demerit points for speeding or for running through a red light. The points don't go away even if you pay the fine. If you go through a year without infractions, one point will be taken off. I think

Really like this translation approach and I had written about it just couple of days back (more from a testing and validation context). To see folks take that approach to something complex is pretty amazing! https://balanarayan.

I was able to tame it on Instagram by actively blocking 3-4 accounts every day and then engaging with accounts of just one topic; I picked Cricket. That said, I don't use the discovery section much so when I revisit after a few weeks i

I haven't reinstalled Windows in years in my PC. The only place I see this issue is in my work laptop, but that also has multiple anti-virus, endpoint detection and other security things hogging memory in the background in the most ine

Those QR codes are for a payment method called UPI that is managed by a conglomerate of banks (NPCI), with the blessings of the Reserve bank. Google Pay, PhonePe etc are apps that are interoperable and allow P2P or P2B payments by scanning

I think Apple is also more comfortable with Google than say an OpenAI due to the past relationship with the search deal.

Result of UI people work on UX. As an industry we need to de-hyphenate UI and UX.

I have a different theory for the current enshitification we see. When OS updates became free Apple and Microsoft stopped caring about what customers want and what will sell. This allowed them to do whatever they wanted without repercussion

I thought it was made by NPCI, which is owned by RBI, AND the IBA. It is ultimately a government organisation.

From what I understood, the case against OpenAI wasn't about the summarisation. It was the fact that the AI was trained on copyrighted work. In case of Wikipedia, the assumption is that someone purchased the book, read it, and then sum

No, I used to work in a newspaper and we were switching between text editing, graphic design and image processing tools for our work. This makes a lot of sense! That said, most magazines and newspapers have designated people to focus on eac

Yes, these are faces, but why do they look like pillars to me? Ornamented and sculpted pillars are pretty common across civilizations and I can imagine sloping tent like roof set up that are held up by these pillars. How does one separate a

Large companies negotiate and get lower rates, but individuals get the sticker price. So it is in Microsoft's interest if more people took up the individual option. That said, I don't see it working in companies where everything i

I've been using the RayBan Meta glasses for a while now, and the main reason I like them is because they do not have a display ( https://balanarayan.com/2024/12/31/ray-ban-meta-long-term-re... ). Another s

I don't understand why transaction fee is a percentage as it takes the cost of transferring money is the same irrespective of the amount. There should be a reasonable cap. For example 2% for any transaction less than $2, and $0.2 for a
