I don't have much context about your technical requirements but can I ask why JSON instead of a more indexable format?

I am from India and pretty sure the reason here is it's much easier to make UIs in flutter than in Android native. Nothing specific to India being a developing country.

It's natural to see students using easier stuff as well. Most of student projects you come across is using react, flutter, firebase, MongoDB, as opposed to Angular/Vue, Android native/Jetpack, postgresql etc.. which have much higher barrier to entry.

But this may have to do with developing countries having more recent developers, and less established developers.

Which areas in Bangalore are good from this perspective? (Cleanliness, environment, less populated, good infra)?

I guess first half can be while second half not.

This is a recent HN thread and Post you might find interesting.

Due to career and other reasons, there is a publish or perish crisis today.

Maybe we can do better by accepting not everyone can publish ground breaking results, and it's okay.

There are lots of incompetent people in academia, who later go to upper positions and decide your promotions by citation counts and how much papers you published. I have no realistic ideas how to counter this.

British one was different. They recognized some castes as martial races etc.. but didn't do identity politics on them.

Whatever caste system is today there in India, it was before arrival of Europeans as well, but little more flexible compared to the strict categorisation they did.

It's mostly due to Go being statically typed and having good editor tooling IMO. Doesn't excuse other atrocities in its design.

"first night curfew, hegirutte gottaa!?" with "first night" in a different color.

I laughed so hard at this. Is it TV9?

Well, you could, if you could rely on LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be set to "." by default.

It's actually supported without LD_LIBRARY_PATH hacks, using DT_RPATH. You can do that by passing -rpath '$ORIGIN' to linker IIRC.

Are there enough rust jobs that don't involve shady stuff like crypto currency?

Nothing to be amazed about.

The social conditioning of girls is preferring the popular person. The social circles decide half of what's attractive, and that's generally outgoing, 'popular' types and not your math nerd. This is even true for intelligent girls, as most of them are socially conditioned to value characteristics conventionally perceived as musculine and / or attractive. Often the characteristics of the partner decide the girl's social standing among the peers.

I might get a lot of flame for mentioning this, but there's a concept called Fischerian runaway. Basically the fact that female sexual selection is fragile and doesn't always lead to good kind of evolution.

This is probably one thing that conservative cultures get right. If you're a 19 year old studying engineering or medicine in India, no one judges you because you are a virgin. (The culture has it's drawbacks, too. I am not downplaying them).

For me it appears in notifications as well.

Chill dude. How do I run gcc in java beanshell?

To be fair, the previous ruling party was nepotistic, and everybody knew actual power was with Nehru family. As much as current government does majority appeasement they did minority appeasement. Both are wrong.

Congress failed because of nepotism and incompetency, and they failed the nation with them. It's their fault as well.

Are Indian product based companies using modern tech i.e NodeJS / Go or older tech (PHP, Python, Java) in general? By S.O developer survey, Go is one of well paid languages IIRC. Is it true in India as well?

Ah. A political party can always win by misleading people. Does that mean misled people "deserve" everything that happens to them?

Not to mention that choice was between two equally corrupt parties each with their own flaws. But people could've seen what Modi has done after first 5 years period.

As long as there aren't too many variables keeping state, imperative should be fine.

Joel Spolsky nails it in a blog post.

Watching non-programmers trying to run software companies is like watching someone who doesn’t know how to surf trying to surf.

“It’s ok! I have great advisors standing on the shore telling me what to do!” they say, and then fall off the board, again and again. The standard cry of the MBA who believes that management is a generic function. Is Ballmer going to be another John Sculley, who nearly drove Apple into extinction because the board of directors thought that selling Pepsi was good preparation for running a computer company? The cult of the MBA likes to believe that you can run organizations that do things that you don’t understand.

Unrelated, it's odd that everyone who expresses concern over different aspects of vaccines are labelled anti vaxxer etc.. in few circles.

Here in India, many people have concerns over quality of vaccines and whether appropriate testing is done before releasing them. I think that's a valid concern considering how rampant corruption is.

NIH hacked by unknown people

NYT title next day "Cargo cult package manager behind NIH hack"

We first cancel all people with BLM/LGBTQ support profiles while discriminating against Asians and Indians in real life.

Yeah never forgive someone because they were once politically incorrect in some unrelated matter.

Is political correctness a religion?

Early C compilers were not optimising compilers. The hardware was very limited.

Although I would agree it was possible to design the language much better to avoid Null, most buffer overflows etc.., C was not designed to be good from PL standpoint. It was designed to write something and then evolved.

I don't think mutability is problem here. Many imperative languages don't have null.

When all this bullshit actually works, I feel like there's something deeply wrong with the way modern bureaucracies are structured. If people have knowledge of field they are going to manage, this is less likely to happen.

As Joel Spolsky puts it, The cult of the MBA likes to believe that you can run organizations that do things that you don’t understand.

I love my job, take pride in it, and work hard at it. But I think of myself as working for my students, my collaborators, and my immediate colleagues. I pay little attention to my university as a whole, don't view it especially positively, haven't learned how to work its bureaucracy, and feel little loyalty to the institution in general.

Thank you.

Use something other than DDD?

The reason for not keeping it freely accessible doesn't matter. It's either freeware and some hobbyist or student can easily get, or they cannot.

Have anti wokers got anyone fired.

They are just reactionary fools and don't have as much political clout as original fools.

So do you judge non-abrahamic religions as faiths or religions or paganism or ....
