  • I have been pretty positive about assignments as an assessment process since it enables seeing actual work instead of memorisation skills, but out of the few times I have had one of these…

    • 1 of them wanted me to agree to not sharing my work anywhere, so that they would be the only ones keeping my output. I realised they just wanted free work and declined.
    • 1 of them required me to run an “AI benchmarking” thingy, which ran connected to the network. Essentially, they wanted free CPU cycles to run whatever model they were running. I dropped it after reading 0.1% of the code in the repo.





  • If you have a smartphone, you get to use UPI (United Payments Interface).
    If you don’t, you are basically limited to a certain amount of free withdrawal per month, which is set to prevent getting an outcry from BPL (below poverty line) people, which would otherwise be bad for elections.

    I was considering pushing for open source UPI apps for Linux devices (and providing my services for development), to reduce India’s reliance on Google and Android but considering recent events, I believe that is not really going to align with the Government’s plans.
