FWIW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyjiOBWH91s The lead maintainer OHFP is quite the character. I think Librewolf is hosed. I am not gonna touch it with a 10 foot pole.

Better late than never. Now where's my 3.5mm audio port?

how the ability to string verbals tokens is not intelligence.

It is a kind of intelligence.

In this regard a UPI transaction is the same as a cash transaction. AFAICT it does not handle payment disputes. You can use a credit card if it provides protection against this but now you need to be sure the credit card company is not scamming you (say by charging you bogus fees). As far as I am concerned using a credit card changes nothing when it comes to fraud protection.

Why is the bank doing this for you? Out of the goodness of their hearts?

You have to remember to pay back your credit card debt before the clock runs out. Once you make a UPI payment the transaction ends there (because the money is debited from your bank account and you are not taking on a conditional loan). You don't have to remember to pay the UPI company anything after the fact. I hope this explains how UPI is different from credit cards.

Credit card annual interest rates can be as high as (or even higher than) 50%. This is not trivial, it can (and does) ruin lives. It is a type of debt (though conditional).

The NPCI is nothing like VISA or Mastercard. And you are right pointing this out is only a technicality.

Withdrawing money from a credit card is taking on debt. Credit and debt are related concepts. Ask yourself this will you have to eventually pay interest on the borrowed money or not?

You can have other (non credit, say savings) bank accounts for security too. It's just as easy (or easier) as getting a credit card here (in India).

This exists in India too. But people don't use it. Why take on debt if you don't need to?

UPI is directly connected to your bank account. It does not go through VISA, Mastercard or whatever.

FWIW rasta in Hindi means way or road. Rastafarian = Way fairing traveller?

mostly fidgeting

Yeah I do this too. Never thought this could be classified as hyperactive.

Does YouTube know we have ADHD even before we do? This was in my recommendations this week. I did not think I had ADHD since I am rarely hyperactive. But everything in this video fits me to a tee. Been looking for adult ADHD treatment here in India but apparently every single one of them is a pediatrician.

Definitely not worth it.

He died of brain cancer.

Revolutionary if true.

It really feels like everything is trying to nickel and dime you guys over there.

This is what being American means. Capitalism and rent seeking to the max!

D was doomed from the start. It was designed as an incremental improvement over C++. Initially it provided refuge to burnt out C++ programmers like myself. But once I discovered Rust there was no coming back.

Rust takes its fundamentals from more advanced and well thought out functional languages. As a result it outclasses D and its ilk.

No comment :)

Just buy an Apple, Samsung or whatever device. It's good to have choices. Everything does not have to be made for the same market segment.

Textbook idiocy. Whataboutism is not a phallacy when the discussion is about comparing things.

Neither, F# for the win!

LOL.

What is a drive image? Is it a standard like ISO?

The EM field is always there

Did you mean to say "the E field is always there"?

Loved this explanation otherwise.

"It will help us not loose money due to bad optics"?

It's not that simple. A group losing a large number of their males will lead to more incestuous relationships down the line.

Baranda (derived from varanda) in Bengali means porch too!

It's not an either-or. We need both.
