    That’s a great write up. Thanks Did you think of setting up the same in Gujarat since you had to runaround so much in Sangli?

    This is something that’s hard for someone like me to know (living outside India and no experience in setting up a business in India) Does it make a difference if same party is in p…

    That’s just the first of the what if’s I ask. Next would be, are they up for removal of all subsidies / free programs (e.g., SNAP / food stamps)? How can health care costs be addre…

    If UBI is the way, do you agree or disagree that there should be no minimum wage? Decide minimum wage, then give UBI to adults based on that. If $15 per hr is minimum wage, UBI sho…

    My hunch: Trump hates universities. So he’ll do anything to ensure universities are on life support. This is a great way for him to bring the uncertainties to follow his orders.

    Need to go off on a tangent to reply. Canada is showering it's unemployed citizens with something similar to $2000 per month unemployment benefits. That's $12.5 per hr for not work…

    I agree with you about convenience of ordering. This was often the case when I was in the US. But in canada it's nice that all stores I frequent accept credit cards, and all of the…

    Love their mission. But I think Slice is more for helping non-chain pizza shops compete with Dominos/Pizza-Hut/Papa-johns. also $1.95 doesn't include the costs of delivery (deliver…

    The cost for Uber is to process the cc transaction, cost of transportation (the close to minimum wage "net pay" to the driver). I agree Uber has other costs, and I'm not saying it …

    I refuse to use any of these delivery apps, which are kind of useless already. Here in Toronto area, most of the big food outlets are closed, because they are not able to get worke…

    I don't like the smell when butter is turned into ghee. But I love ghee. In fact, after a short stint on a Keto diet, looking at the results, I now understand why ghee is essential…

    4/4S/5 and the old SE are still my favourite designs / form factors (saying this despite owning 6/7/11Pro). I hope 12 will do away with rounded edges (similar to the latest iPad Pr…

    what's the point of wanting this feature when it is not going to be a focus for many apps since this feature is not available in newer phones?

    I think this is excellent timing. Those due for upgrading their phones while being wary of the current state of the economy and their own cash flow situation, can just going for th…

    Well, Russia and Saudi Arabia have agreed to cut oil production. OPEC+ may follow soon. Hence the markets going super green. Most the bottom hunters are only following the Covid ne…

    Trying to wrap my head around this. Is this different from Convertible Debt? Also, why raise at 10% interest when interest rates are so low?

    This is much worse an issue if you live in a super new apartment in the suburbs. UPS/FedEx drivers know location very well. Amazon delivery ends up in a totally different location,…
