   The last paragraph with upside downside comments are legendary Plus the threat to impose even bigger costs with anti trust violation claims! Need to imagine the face of the in-house counsel reading it.

   Really don't know how it works. There are many reports of people just clicking one link and the entire phone gets taken over, bank accounts drained. These days banks have KYC and should know who finally gets the money. Even across bord

   Just pointed out a issue that may help deciding.. Didn't know it's a controversial point to make going by the negative points :-( To each his own.

    Problem is this requires turning off protection for unknown origin apks and these days many banking apps etc stop working once you do that. Could be useful for a spare phone for secure but non critical work.

    It's silly to assume countries like India that are democracies can't address pollution without data from one or two embassy buildings in a 2.3m sq km nation! These NGO types will obviously sing one tune. They'll be even more

    Japanese are obsessed with being clean. Like wiping the pen with tissue paper before handing it to you. On more than one occasion I have had a stranger passenger on long distance train clearing my cup of coffee as she goes to throw hers in

    Very interesting study. I guess even without conscious rote learning there's repetition involved in selling the same set of vegetables in similar quantities over months, years and customers paying in similar bills - after all there is

    I hard a hard time getting LSP to work with Neovim, had to give up. Didn't want to install yet another plug-in manager like Mason etc some of which go out of circulation or could be risky. Maybe I am below average. As it is free, I jus

    Yeah it is kind of silly to believe check boxes, radio buttons and drop downs somehow make things easier. They don't especially when the options are anyway complex, mutual incompatible or even dangerous if clicked random! I can't

    True of most places.. But they do put a lot of effort into making ordinary things "cute" or artistic. Like those construction site warnings or info boards. In most places it's just functional and bare. In Japan they add carto

    Everything they do is a thing of beauty, showing lots of effort, care and aesthetics. Even those warning signboards at construction sites or road and cable works.

    I'm not sure if it's related to how kids are taught to hold the pen. And the pen itself. In India as a kid, that was really long back, ball pens banned, you had to use fountain pens. And I hold the pen like it's featured in m

    Unless it's really badly written, like mine is these days, I can read cursive quite comfortably. Guess it's a matter of habit.

    Very interesting.. Frankly did not know most of what's said in replies.. That it's not compulsorily taught and more surprisingly it's slower to write! I thought having to lift pen repeatedly would be slower? Anyway I need to

    US scientists and engineers are second to none in the world. But they are distant second to their own marketing guys in innovation. Rapid unscheduled disassembly!
