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


It's a tradeoff between ease of writing, and ease of reading for indexing, and freeform analytical usecases like this. JSON caters to all fairly well.

It's one file per domain, so looking at specific urls is no prob with this setup.


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.

I laughed so hard at this. Is it TV9?


Has to be! I'd be very surprised if it wasn't :)


> 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.


Thanks! I forgot all about it, in particular about '$ORIGIN' thing! Yes, I'm happy to see the person building the executable has at least some control over this.

It's actually relevant to a project I'm working on (proprietary, Windows/Linux, uses shared libraries for both mandatory components and optional plugins) - I'm gonna check if and how we're setting RPATH for the Linux builds, it might need some tweaking.


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