27M, I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night sweating after having a nightmare about failing my exams at school/college. basically nightmares about failing academically. I have been working in IT for the past 5 years but every now and then I experience these nightmares, will it ever go away?

I'm planning to move to another city soon and I want to take my dog with me. The distance is too long for a drive to make sense so I can either take a train or a flight. From what I've read so far, it's possible to take dogs on both given certain restrictions like you can have them with you in 1AC compartment the entire journey if you book the entire compartment. Similar rules for flights etc Do you have any tips or suggestions for the same?

I really don't know much about scenario of other countries but it seems people in other countries can afford house on loan and they easily pay off that. In India house is so costly when compared to salary of a person that they take almost whole career to payoff the loan. And people always buy car on EMI paying EMI for atleast 3-4 years. And medical care somewhat understandable that it is costly when you have serious problems. But these days when you visit doctor for fever/cold, first of all they take ₹500 fees and recommend ₹900 scans/tests. These are basic needs, why the cost is increasing out of control for a middle class person ? It is so difficult to have a middle class life in India, I can't imagine how daily wage workers and poor people survive.

Hello. I would love some suggestions for a laptop around the 50k range (not more than 56-57k all inclusive ideally). My main requirements are high performance (minimum lag when switching between applications even after 3-4 years). Also light/moderate gaming like Football manger, Fifa and Far Cry 5. I'll have to buy it with my own salary which isn't much so petrified that I'll get it wrong. I've read horror stories of laptops having manufacturing issues and not being able to get it replaced on r/India so keen to avoid issues. Thanks in advance

I completed the Infosys Off Campus drive for the role of System Engineer, got a job offer email on 23rd Aug 2021. I was told I will hear from them about the next steps of the process, but haven't heard from them yet. Enquired a lot, no response. I even tried reaching out to many Infosys HR's on Linkedin, but no response. Could anyone please help fast track this for me? I'll DM you the details.

Well I'm a BCA graduate, and I was looking for some part time jobs here and there till my CAT exams. Im not confident in this year's CAT tho, as I only decided to go for it seriously in September. MBA in IT thats what I was thinking of pursuing. But Im having second thoughts, saw alot of post, articles etc that MBA is not worth it anymore and if you want to go for it, getting it from the too B schools is the only way. Like I was saying, during my job hunt, my profile in naukri got scouted by a software company, that wanted to give me training in Full Stack Development. Its like a 3 month course that supposedly provides unlimited interviews till I get placed with only a single one time payment. Seems legit the company is pretty good too. But I'm really confused on what I should do, I could still this training even after my mba right?if that's a viable option? I know that experience is key in any field, but I dont want limit myself with just a bachelor's degree, eventhough in this day and age where people are saying "a college degree isnt everything". Im an average student i have to push really hard to see results. So what do you guys think? I'm only asking what my options are.

Do any of you watch Pakistani soap operas? Have heard they are way better than Indian dramas, so is there any recommendation?

With recurring online transactions being banned in India.. how is everyone managing online subscription renewals ? Netflix , prime etc . Most of my renewals including iCloud storage have all failed for this month . I’m guessing it’s the same for everyone.. Any solutions or Jugaads ? :-)

I am visiting Rajasthan next month for 11 days. Currently preparing the travel itinerary and short listing locations. Please let me know if there any any places/ cities/ hotels/ food stalls/ experiences or anything else that I must try.

The Punjab Congress is essentially imploding into different camps, and in states such as Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan, there seems to be an uneasy peace in the conflict between the experienced veterans and the young leaders (like Pilot v Gehlot). So many of the senior-most leaders of the party (Sibal, Tewari, Tharoor, etcetera) are railing against their own high command. Apart from Karnataka, this factionalism isn’t very visible in the BJP. Of course, conflicts do erupt between regional satraps like Yediyurappa and the high command, but it almost never seems to spill over into the public sphere. Is this a result of less factionalism in the BJP, or simply greater secrecy?

I have lived in US for long time driving with polarized sunglasses is very common to cut down any glare. But I have seen in India, hardly anyone wears sunglasses while driving. Is there a reason? I drive in India wearing sunglasses and had no issues whatsoever in driving. In fact, driving without sunglasses is painful for eyes. Thanks

Hey guys, what's a good DNA ancestry genome test that's well tuned for Indian demographics? In other words, I'm looking for a test that won't just report back 99% South Asian but is aware of the subdivisions – more nuanced the better. I came across genomepatri, but was curious to hear suggestions or reviews of genomepatri if any of you have tried it.

Indian influences in the story Life is strange, and a human's conditions and thoughts are always changing, as are the days and years. You see an atheist becoming religious and a man of god turning into a heretic! A beggar becoming rich and a chaste housewife becoming a cabaret dancer !!Etc. This is the world. Our story for today talks about the volatility of conditions and how far people could end up drifting from their ways. The purpose of this story, dear reader, is that we become more fair in our view of people and more understanding of the circumstances that may drive some to practices that we may deplore and not accept, for a prostitute doesn't give away her body out of love of having sex with strangers, of course not, but because she needs money, sometimes just for a meal or a place to stay the night, and Matta Harry also did not transform from a spoiled girl to a belly dancer and then to a spy because she wanted it, but because the circumstances forced her ... the circumstances and the fluctuations of life!

I am thinking of getting a LASIK surgery done. Does anybody have any good recommendations for good doctors / clinics / hospitals? The main requirement is that the doctor should be polite and be supportive during the treatment. I have had many experiences where doctors try to be smart by fooling us as if we are kids (not talking about LASIK particularly). They tell us "kuch nai hoga" and stuff when it is going to hurt. Just tell me so that I can be prepared. Looking for a doctor like in [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWGi4S-dr44).

Why do we sugar coat our country and say India is the best, India has the most diversity. India is this and that. This morning I came across a headline, a Justice Shah was commending the Centre on how "well" it handled the pandemic. How blind can such powerful people be? Living in your own bubble? The Supreme Court praised the Centre," What India has done, no other country could do." Balls. What the Centre did and said was YOYO!!! "YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN". Atmanirbhar bharat. They couldn't do shit so they just slyly shifted all responsibility and duty of care on the people. All they did was the Thali Bajao and Candle Jalao movement. People came on the streets and were banging thalis right next to each other, they thought Corona was on a break up for an hour. The Mofo couldn't even give proper instructions to people. As a people, we are fucking dumb. There were multiple cases of police brutality, they beat up a pregnant woman and an old man. There were multiple violations by politicians for rallying but they were not beaten up or anything. There was a shortage of safety kits for doctor yet they were being forced to work as doctors should save other lives and not their own or their families. Propagandas all around which are focused on dividing us. In the name of Feminism, women are hating on men, falsely accusing them of misbehavior and ruining innocent lives. The top feminist organization of our country doesn't believe that men can be raped, and takes misandry very lightly, and they are blind to the number of fake cases under 498A and it's effect on men, cases of suicide in men has increased over the years due this. What fake feminism shit is this! "A man is guilty until proven innocent. A woman is innocent until proven guilty." Feminism is simply the fight for equal rights for women. It's not a fight against men, that's misandry, it's a fight against the laws which are unequal. Men, women, and others, we all have to co-exist and help the other and opposite genders. WE HAVE TO FIGHT TOGETHER AND NOT AGAINST EACH OTHER. What about the Oxygen tank fiasco? Fuckers didn't do shit. They could have done so much over there so that people could get Oxygen tanks. They didn't, they even had a factory which could have been used to make and recycle Oxygen tanks. Kuch nahi kiya. People were left to fend for themselves. They had to make so many calls just to arrange 1 oxygen cylinder. Almost everyone was out of oxygen cylinders. One had to call to different providers. What about those societies who harassed the kind souls who went out to feed stray animals during the pandemic? I came across a video of a society in which literally everyone was against the team of young folks who were feeding the stray animals daily in the society. The society people called the cops on them. A young fellow in Lucknow was verbally abused and pushed because he was feeding dogs on the fucking street outside their houses. Even though they have such big houses and different luxury cars and shit, what they don't have is a heart which is as big as their house. They could have taken in those animals, they could have done fed them everyday without thinking twice about money, they could have together contributed and made shelters for strays who live on the road. But nah, all they care about is having more money and more materials to show off. Big warm houses with tiny cold hearts. Our politicians have criminal cases against them and yet they lead us. Into what? More violence and hatred. They think porn is the leading cause of rape cases, it's not, it's literacy and awareness. Ever since they banned the popular and easily accessible porn sites, I noticed the cases and news of rape have increased. I remember this one week, the whole fucking week, there were new cases of rape every single day. Every day, I would see InShorts, there would be a rape incident. Some were so brutal it made me lose hope in humanity for a bit. They're banning porn, banning OTTs as they wish. This censorship is actually a way of controlling people. There's a lot of science behind it. What we watch and absorb. If you want ban something, ban those Bollywood movies which glorify those toxic man-woman relationships, which ingrain a false idea of love for everyone, which has given our young men that saviour-complex, that only the alpha male gets the prettiest girl and given our women intense self-entitlement and the damsel in distress attitude. Porn is a healthy outlet for many horny individuals. It's bad when we get addicted to it, just like any other addiction. The global GDP went down by 2% solely because of our country a few years ago. Check out the international report by IMF and what IMF chief economist said, that India is responsible for 80% of slashed global growth estimate. And this year, IMF forecasts that India's GDP potential has gone down from 12.5% to 9.5%. Acche din aa gaye kya? If we say anything or criticize the country and it's politicians, we are labelled as anti-national. So many people who have criticized the government have had to face the wrath of BJP goons, and in some cases get a sedition charges against them. And pyaara Bharat was ranked as the most dangerous country for women. Now some loving things, I love our country because it has all the climactic weather and geographies. You feel like going to the beach, go Goa! You feel like going the hills, go Parvati Valley. You feel like going to icy regions, go Himalaya! You feel like you wanna eat those cows who shit outside your house, go to Kerala and eat their relatives. You wanna go the dessert, go Rajasthan! Variety is the spice of life. Read global news and see where our country stands as of now. It's really disappointing.

Hey all, I just need some advice/help, I know that for startups in india there are various resources that they can make use of in terms of incubation/acceleration/funding and what not.

I want to work as a Data Scientist in an American Bank later down the line. I've had an offer from TCS in the Digital Cadre(7 LPA). I'm confused amongst whether I should shift to Bangalore or to Pune. I know the opportunities for growth and switching in Bangalore is far more, but the living expenses for a 1 BHK(won't live in a PG) and the rest are higher. Since I get that most interviews are gonna be virtual now I'm thinking of whether I should spend on that extra money. Also, I'm romanticizing the hill stations near Pune and the whether. Knowing that I would have to shift to Bangalore eventually in 2-3 years anyway, what should I do?

Long story short, I was falsely accused of stalking a minor (I'm in my early 20s) by a man (who's a lawyer) in my building cause ,I was in my own building compound talking to my mom ,on the phone sitting on my bike, and I caught a glimpse of his furniture being shifted in a tempo twice. He got hostile and grabbed my arm pushing me away . '' Why are you looking at my furniture?" are his words which turned into "I have seen you stalking my daughter" and "Everyone knows about it". I backed off and rushed home. And now he's defaming me and my family by spreading rumors that I stalk his "daughter and wife now". Now this is a man who called the police once when someone verbally abused him once years ago. Everyone stays away from his family due to the nuisance he had created. He's personally trying to find my friend's parents and spread lies, since I got a call from my friend asking who he is and my dad heard rumors you . I'm shit scared rn and panicking. These false allegations can ruin my life. Any legal advice and precautions would be appreciated. Sorry for my mediocre English.

Openly celebrating the death of a Muslim man in Assam as 'safai'. The scary part is people like him are not even afraid to call this out in open, and fear the law. One who gets to enjoy protection from his political masters has the freedom to even celebrate death of a minority in this county without fearing a damn arrest? We are all so rotten, and morally corrupt. This is what BJP has done to us all. Get out ASAP. https://preview.redd.it/kfwgtezi2eq71.jpg?width=749&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87ae09d34127cf0e43bd3d9747877638b9d3855a

I know a lot of people move to different city for finding work, I'm thinking of doing the same. I'd like to know about how the experience was, where did you move, how different it was from your hometown, what were the problems faced and how did it change your perception about being independent right after college.

I am a guy but I know at least 2 women who are in their early to mid thirties and haven't married yet. What's more, they seem to have given up on marriage, don't see them dating or looking for rishtas. Career seems to be their primary occupation these days. Not marrying is common for men but for women it seems to be a new trend. Even 20 years ago unmarried women were unheard of in India, at least outside of metro cities. What is it like?

Long story short, my mother is a cancer patient and her treatment is going on. A few months ago, my masi (mom's sister) too got diagnosed with last stage lung cancer. Given my mother has a habit of unlocking my phone at any given time, I had to change my pattern lock to avoid my mother reading about her sister's condition. We didn't disclose it to her, as we didn't want her treatment to get affected. Now the problem is, I forgot my pattern lock and unable to access my phone. I could had simply gone for a factory reset, but I will end up losing my mother's treatment and medical insurance files, which are very important right now. I have already contacted the hospital and medical insurance company in Mumbai, but they refused to help out. I have tried various combinations so many times, that now the pattern lock is giving me a timer of around one hour. There is no option to reset the pattern lock via Google account either. (Mi Note 7 Pro / Android 9+). I have already reached out to mobile technicians, and they too have told me that I have to either try to get the correct pattern lock, or risk losing the files permanently. Can anyone suggest me any program, which helps me visualize the various patterns on a computer? I know the possible first three numbers and have a very mild memory of the pattern. Knowing the first three numbers and possible pattern narrows down my probability of the patterns I have to try. The list of all 9 digit - 389,112 possible patterns are available here: https://github.com/delight-im/AndroidPatternLock/blob/master/OUTPUT.txt If the possible lock patterns can be visualized using an external program or in excel sheet, will be grateful to know if any such programs exist. Please help me! ... EDIT: I do have the medical insurance policy and other hospital documents with me. But there are certain Doctor's hand written notes which can't be reproduced, even on our request. And the phone also has audio recordings of our conversations with the Doctor. I am stuck in a legal matter with the Medical insurance company, and that evidence will help me. EDIT 2: Its Mi Note 7 Pro EDIT 3: There are some redditors who think I'm think trying to hack into someone else's phone and that I'm a thief. Unfortunately I can't prove on an anonymous forum that it is my own phone which got locked out. But here is my mother's histopathology report from last year, which showed she has cancer in her uterus. - https://imgur.com/zjSZwmM I wouldn't want even my enemies to go through the pain a cancer patient goes through, and later the Insurance company adds more to it.

Posted this earlier here but didn't get much response, so I'm trying again. I'm looking to buy a good vacuum cleaner for home, mainly for those days that the maid decides not to turn up. I don't know much about these at all so was hoping to get some recommendations. I'd prefer a bagless one to avoid repeated expenses and something that makes less noise. * Wet+dry is preferred * Metal HEPA filter is preferred. * Budget - under 8k peferably. Vroom away! Also does anyone have experience with the American Micronic or Karcher vaccs? Are they any good?

For the last 7-8 weeks, JioMart has been canceling more orders than delivering. It's utterly a lottery as to whether my order will get delivered. No reason is ever given for cancelation.

Hi everyone, I recently got into video editing and thoroughly enjoy it. Not a professional yet, so don't want to spend a lot, but I'd be grateful if you could point me to something not-so-expensive that could still do a more than decent job. Also, these are my current specifications, so do you think if I upgraded the RAM to, say, 16 GB and get a graphics card, I can avoid buying a new laptop altogether? I use Adobe Premier Pro. * Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8265U CPU @ 1.60GHz 1.80 GHz * RAM 4.00 GB * 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor * Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620 Thanks in advance!

Dear Redditors, Please reccomend a comprehensive Individual health insurance plan. I have looked at several companies such as Care Health, HDFC Ergo etc but the plans and lingo is so confusing that I am unable to choose one. I thought of looking at sites like Policy Bazaar but they request for Phone number before showing any details.

Hello! posting on an alt account for privacy reasons but I am an Chinese American college student majoring in international studies at JHU SAIS. I have translated and summarized one of the most popular posts on Zhihu (China's Quora) about Chinese- Indian relations. I feel this is useful information to share as it encapsulates the CCP's view of India (accurate based on my personal links to CCP) and explains why China behaves so antagonistically. This post is **LONG** but is still much shorter than the original. The original has 9 chapters, chapters 5 - 9 focusing on Chinese military strategy in a Sino- Indian war. In this post I have focused on the politics and reasons for conflict described in chapters 1-4. I have left out most of the historical background, Chinese idioms and cultural aspects in an effort to shorten the post. **The most important parts are in bold and italicized, I would highly recommend reading those**. Feel free to pm with any questions. Apologies in advance for mistranslations and/or incorrect information. If this post gets enough attention, I will post all the chapters and maybe even the full translation. if you want to read the full post I have attached the link. Google translate is 70% accurate and there are a few very important errors. **Link to post:** [**https://www.zhihu.com/question/421319290/answer/1812313401**](https://www.zhihu.com/question/421319290/answer/1812313401) **Chapter One, India is big trouble for China in the future** Today, China faces significant problems on its borders, totally surrounded by strong neighbors. The United States has unprecedented strength and continues to threaten national security. Russia. although it has a small population, has a large geographical advantage . Although Sino-Russian relations are good in the short term, it could be a big variable in the long run. However, an opponent with a great potential threat but easily underestimated is India. India is very weak on the surface, but has a greater potential for development. If you take the long-term view, India is likely to be a significant power in the future. One reason many people like to laugh at India is that in the 1980s, the economic strength of China and India was evenly matched, but after China’s reform and opening up, China’s economy grew rapidly, and China’s GDP is now five times that of India. This shows how slow India’s economic growth is. However, if you compare it on a global scale, you can actually find that India’s economic growth is not slow. Since 1980, India’s GDP has increased 30 fold. In contrast, the GDP of other developing countries except China and India has only increased 10 fold, and the GDP of developed countries has even increased 8 fold. To a certain extent, it is not that India’s economic development is slow, but that China’s economic growth is too fast. ***China’s economic achievements conceal India’s economic miracle. If there is no comparison with China, then India’s economic growth can be considered a global miracle.*** On the other hand, China’s rapid economic growth has not come without a price. Due to strict family planning rules, China today faces the problem of aging and declining birthrate at the same time. India has not implemented such a strict family planning policy, and the proportion of young people is very high. Although this has dragged down economic growth, India’s demographic dividend advantage has become increasingly prominent in the past ten years. We know that young people are the main creators of social wealth, and the number of young people has a great influence on the economic strength of China. To some extent, if the number of young people in India is twice that of China in 2050, even if India’s per capita output is only half of China by then, India’s GDP will be on par with China and become the world’s top three economies. A power of more than one billion people can never be underestimated, although India is a very weak country at the moment, and the lower limit is low; but the future development potential is very large, the upper limit is very high. Although China is now flourishing, if one day the country is facing an aging crisis, on one hand, fewer young people lead to a decline in the number of soldiers, on the other hand, the country has been undergoing such a crises a long period of time, the national willingness to fight is reduced. At that time, it will be much more difficult to deal with a potentially rising India than it is now. **Chapter Two, the conflicts between China and India can hardly be reconciled** It is difficult to reconcile the China-India conflict, just as it was difficult to reconcile the China-Soviet conflict before the collapse of the Soviet Union. The underlying reasons are not explained by ideology, territorial disputes, cultural differences, or foreign policy. In the 1960s and 1980s, China’s greatest threat was from none other than the Soviet Union. If a torrent of Soviet tanks goes south from Mongolia, it will hit Beijing within a week. Since ancient times, the greatest external threat to China has been from the North. And in modern times, Soviet Russia has assumed this role. During the Cold War, the Soviet Union was unprecedentedly powerful and had nothing better than a torrent of armored tanks. This was similar to ancient cavalry, fast and ruthless, able to tear a hole in the opponent's defenses in a very short time The key issue is that during the Cold War, the Soviet Union maintained absolute geographic superiority . The Soviet Union not only controlled the outer northeast, but also Mongolia. When the Soviet Union did not control Mongolia, if the Soviet Union wanted to attack China, it still had to go south from the Northeast Plain and enter North China after conquering the Shanhai pass. But with control of the Mongolian Plateau, the Soviet Union faced much fewer obstacles when attacking China. Soviet tanks only had to cross the Yinshan Mountains to enter Hebei. After that, Beijing would be basically insecure to defend. In this case, China may only have to move south like the Central Plains dynasties in the past, and use the southern rivers as a line to fight against the Soviet army. This is the fundamental reason why China would fight with the Soviet Union during the Cold War and cooperate with the West without hesitation. As long as Mongolia is controlled by the Soviet Union, China’s national defense cannot be assured. Thanks to an independent mongolia, China and Russia are moving towards reconciliation, in the long run, due to Russia's natural geopolitical suppression, it is still a potential threat, and China and Russia still guard against each other. Taking the example of the Soviet Union, we can understand why Sino-Indian relations are difficult to reconcile. ***The geography of India is very similar to China The main population centers of China are on the North China Plain, and Beijing is the throat into the North China Plain. The population centers of India are on the Ganges Plain, and New Delhi is the throat to enter the Ganges Plain. The south has similar broken terrain and a long coastline, and the southeast has a large island like Sri Lanka.*** But compared to China, India's geography is extremely bad. All of the core areas of India are in the hands of other countries (Indus river, Lower Ganges, Siri Lanka). India does not have many natural barriers. The coastline is too long and it is easy to be attacked by east and west, while China only needs to defend the east. This makes India very easy to invade as seen in history. ***This is the reason why India invaded Tibet in the 1960s and maintained a relatively high military expenditure for a long time. It cannot be said that India is a militaristic state, but because in the context of geographical disadvantages, it can only maintain military balance by spending more than its opponents.*** For India, China is the biggest geo-threat. This is because China not only controls the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, but also is an ally with Pakistan. Once China and India go to war, India will almost certainly lose without external intervention. India’s Ganges plain is in danger and is at a great disadvantage. The geographical disadvantages of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the alliance between China and Pakistan are part of the reasons why China-India relations cannot be reconciled. ***But in the long run, even if China and India can complete the territorial conflicts and China and Pakistan no longer are allies, it will be difficult for China and India to reconcile completely. The reason is that both China and India want to become superpowers and leaders in Asia, inevitably leading to strategic collisions.*** In the future, if both China and India want to rise up and become leaders in Asia, conflicts of interest will inevitably arise. The key point of the conflict is Southeast Asia, the backyard of both counties. Southeast Asia is extremely rich in resources and possesses the oil and rubber needed for war. On the other hand, Southeast Asia is characterized by scattered power and small countries. Forming battlegrounds for any major countries. China and India both have significant cultural and historical ties with the region. Southeast Asia has many Chinese and Indians. To a certain extent, Southeast Asia is to China and India what Latin America is to the United States, Eastern Europe is to Germany and Russia, and North Korea is to China and Japan. They belong to the range of interests that must be contested. Therefore, if both China and India become stronger in the future, they are likely to fiercely compete for dominance in Southeast Asia. On land, India can rely on the northeast states to infiltrate Myanmar and radiate to the Indochina Peninsula. On the sea, India can rely on the Andaman Islands to increase its influence on the Southeast Asian islands. This is similar to China. On land, China relies on the Trans-Asian Railway/Pan-Asian Highway to increase its radiation to the Indochina Peninsula, and on the sea, it relies on the Nansha Islands to increase its influence on Southeast Asia. ***Therefore, Sino-Indian relations are difficult to reconcile unless three conditions are met: 1. China withdraws from Tibet, or the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau becomes a neutral buffer area similar to Mongolia; 2. China abandons support for Pakistan; 3. China and India abandon the competition for Southeast Asia. None of these three items can be done by China. Tibet is an indivisible part of our territory. Although India has long supported "Tibet independence", it is impossible for China to give up Tibet. It is also impossible for China to give up support for Pakistan, Because once you let India unify South Asia, India will be the spearhead aimed at our country. Even more difficult to deal*** ***with. It*** ***is also impossible to give up Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia is our natural economic backyard, and has economic and military dual significance.*** In the short term, the main contradictions are 1 and 2, but as India's national strength over Pakistan get bigger and bigger, we cannot rule out that one day Pakistan will be completely defeated by India or even annexed, by that time China's direct geopolitical threat to India will be greatly reduced, if India can also annex Nepal, Bhutan and other countries, then it will have a pivot point in the Tibetan Plateau, and it will be difficult for China to go over the Tibetan Plateau to directly invade India. At this time, the Sino-Indian territorial dispute will no longer be the main conflict, and the main conflict will change to a struggle for spheres of influence. ***The nature of India's threat is the same as that of Russia and Japan; it is a territorial and existential threat. India, on the one hand, has ambitions to encroach on our territory, which is different from the United States, which focuses on economic interests. India also has attempts to dominate South Asia and encroach on Southeast Asia. When China is strong, both the United States and India will adopt a hostile policy toward China; but when China is in decline, the United States may relax its restrictions , but India will not. If one day India is strong and China is weak, then India will intensify its aggression against our territory and even threaten the safety of our national life and property.*** **Chapter Three, the dilemma of two-front warfare, China does not occupy an absolute advantage on the Sino-Indian border** ***The Chinese front is too long and needs to be guarded separately.*** To the east is Japan and South Korea, to the southeast is Taiwan that has not yet returned, to the south are the Southeast Asian countries with territorial disputes, and to the north is Russia, which has occupied the most territory in China in history. In the west of our country, the situation is more complicated. There are religious and ethnic conflicts in Xinjiang and Tibet, and India is eyeing them. This means that although our country is strong, it needs to be guarded by separate troops Division of Chinese theaters and deployment of forces: Northern Theater -- 3 army groups, North Sea Fleet-- Russia, Korean Peninsula Eastern Theater -- 3 army groups, East China Sea Fleet, half of the air force-- U.S., Japan, Taiwan Southern Theater -- 2 army groups, South China Sea Fleet-- United States, Southeast Asian countries Central Theater -- 3 armies-- Guards the capital and reserve for other war zones Western Theater-- 2 armies-- India ​ Division of Indian military districts and deployment of forces: Northern Military District -- 3 army groups -- Kashmir, the western section of the China-India border Western Military Region -- 4 army groups -- Middle section of the China-India border Eastern Military Region -- 3 armies, East Sea Fleet -- Eastern section of the China-India border Central Military Region -- 1 army -- Guarding the capital Southwest Military Region-- 1 army --- Pakistan Southern Military Region -- 2 armies, West Sea Fleet -- Guarding South India India can use most of its military power against China. The Indian army has 1.15 million troops and has a total of 14 armies, of which 10 are dedicated to fighting China, accounting for 70% of its army. As for the navy, when a war breaks out between China and India, if the United States and India have good relations, India can send its entire navy to the Andaman Islands to block the Strait of Malacca. While most of the Chinese navy will be deployed in the Pacific to confront the United States and Japan. In terms of air force, northern India has a flat terrain and numerous airports, which can accommodate all the fighters of the Indian Air Force. However, there are not enough airports in Tibet to park a large number of fighters. ***If a large-scale war breaks out between China and India, how much force can be used to fight against India?*** It may be difficult for China to deploy troops on a large scale to support the battlefield, because each army group has clear responsibilities. Once a large number of troops are deployed, it will inevitably lead to weakness and give other countries a chance. For example, the 82nd Army is used to guard the capital , the 82nd Army is equipped to fight on the Great Plains, its plateau combat ability is not a strong point ***This means that once a large-scale war breaks out between China and India, we may only be able to mobilize 5 army groups to fight, while the Indian side can mobilize at least 10 armies in response.*** Due to restrictions on the throughput of Tibet’s airports, the number of soldiers that can be sent to Tibet is also relatively limited, and most of the air force still has to stay in the east to confront the United States and Japan. As the Strait of Malacca is controlled by other countries, the possibility of our navy crossing the Strait of Malacca and fighting the Indian Navy in the Indian Ocean is currently unlikely. Therefore, theoretically speaking, China would have to use 40% of the army, less than half of the air force, and close to 0% of the navy in the Sino-Indian war against 70% of the Indian army, close to 100% of the navy and air force. Currently, I believe that if there is no external interference, China can defeat India with only half of its military power. however, In the most likely situation for war, although our military is far stronger than India, it does not occupy an absolute advantage. ***In short, in the context of a potential encounter, China has several major disadvantages against India:*** ***1. China's main strategic focus is in the east, 70% of its military power will be used to confront the United States, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, and it will not be able to spare a hand to deal specifically with India.*** ***2. Since 2016, the United States has gradually locked China as its number one competitor. If China starts a war against India, if it is a protracted war, the United States and the West will inevitably intervene. At that time, there may be wars in Taiwan, the Korean Peninsula, and the South China Sea. Creating a 2 fronts situation*** ***3. 60% of China's oil imports pass through the Strait of Malacca, and a large amount of export trade also goes through this place. Once fighting against India begins, India or the US may take advantage by blockading the Strait of Malacca. China's crude oil reserves can only support 6-12 months during the war*** ***4. The risks and pressures of the two- front warfare can be handled in a war against India. However, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is complex and the railway cannot support the logistics required for large-scale military operations.***

I will go first. Recent one - 'Lut Gaye' ([Link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJw7NYq4PiY&ab_channel=MWLSong)) So the lyrics goes like '**Aankh uthi mohabbat ne angdayi li** '. If you just listen to the song sung by Jubin, it appears '**Kutti mohabbat ne angdayi li**' (I know lol :D). I was very much convinced of my lyrics, because Love can be a biatch right ? My friend heard me murmur over a beer and couldn't stop laughing. Opened the lyrics on the web, showed me and asked to listen again. I also laughed I still continue my own version of lyrics though lol Note - Appears this is a Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Classic #Respect [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIOgR38G2Zs&ab\_channel=OrientalStarAgenciesLtd](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIOgR38G2Zs&ab_channel=OrientalStarAgenciesLtd)

My friend and her mother have a wedding coming up that is roughly a 6 hour drive away in Maharashtra state. Recent posts on this sub has made me lose my confidence on our country. I am not the one to enforce any restrictions on her but I also need to know if she will be safe without any male companions. My gut feeling is telling me to ask her to reconsider this trip or travel by some other means.

I am a male from delhi. I might go homeless in two weeks as i can't pay my room rent. I am searching for a shelter or place where i can stay until i get job or work again. I am constantly applying/searching for a job or work and will get soon. But i am little scared now as i have anxiety issues. This pandemic was very hard for most of us. Please suggest me what to do or where should i go now because soon i will hit rock bottom. And my anxiety is killing me. I can't ask for help from anyone as i don't have parents or siblings and i don't have any friends because of my anxiety issue. I tried to convince my landlord he told me you can stay if you pay even half rent my room rent is Rs 5000. But i don't have anything. I am 12th pass and don't have a graduate degree. I have worked as a sales executive and have a Photoshop certification

Does anyone know a good counsellor for my father? The reason I am looking for counselling is that he maybe (not clear; MRI needed for further analysis but he is deathly scared of it) suffering from Parkinson's Disease. He is very scared to get help from Doctors, has too much fear with medicines. I, along with my mother, want to make sure he gets the help needed to help defuse his fear (he's constantly scared of dying and has kind of accepted it) He gets very scared at the sight of hospital. I want to help him as much as I can. Any help will be very much appreciated. We stay in Jaipur.

I have read elsewhere it should take only 10-20 minutes to reach set temperature.

I am writing this to warn others to not waste their money buying an HP products. I bought this laptop 7 months ago, take care of it very well, being an IT person and it being my first laptop ever. But recently found a white spot on the right side of my screen. I thought, what? screen issues itne jaldi shuru bhi? anyway must be a manufacturing fault, ill just contact HP support and fix this as my laptop is under warranty still. Contacted a technical agent on their whatsapp helpline, and he told me its just a single broken pixel and cant be fixed, I told him, a problem is a problem, big or small, you cant tell people tera problem chhota hai toh tera problem, problem nahi. I thought thike, ill just contact another agent hoping for a different answer. Next agent files in the complaint, asks for video of the issue, my address, phone number and all that jazz, a case was filed, I was finally relaxed about this issue as it was triggering my OCD everytime I used my laptop. Fir I contacted again to check the status of this case ID. This other agent tells me the case is closed because issues like this aren't covered under warranty and I have to pay to replace the screen of a laptop that is under warranty. I told him if issues like this arent solved under warranty then which ones are? whats the point of warranty? it clearly is a manufacturing error, what policies to do you have that says we dont fix a new laptop that has screen issues within a year? He sends me link of policies like they do every time. But do these people not realize that its a stupid policy? Its very agonizing when you realize that the money you saved for your first ever laptop turned up with a manufacturing fault which they dont consider as repairable under warranty. I ask this guy, what is cost of new screen replacement? this guy tells me sorry to inform you cost details for this model is not available so visit the nearest store. Bhay if I had a store that near to me why will I even spend my time talking to you? and if HP people themselves dont know cost of repair of their products then who tf does? felt like kisi gali ke 3rd party repairman se baat kar raha hu. I hope the couple people reading this will realize how shit hp is and even worse their policies. I dont know how to go forward with this anymore, if anyone has any advice for me let me know

Hey there..16 y.o here. I'm a Piano player (Grade 5 and 6 from ABRSM). So, considering that I am present in one of the worst eras of indian music industry, I can't seem to find pieces good enough to play on the piano. Now, I have the opportunity to play at a very-formal-and-elegant partythat's scheduled for December. So people of the 90s and before, can you suggest me some Indian music pieces that sound really good? The kind of music I'm looking for is *Lag jaa gale *Kisi ki muskurahaton pe And if taken in today's time *Jiyein kyun *Kahin toh Hogi woh And all of these will be played really slowly.. So, please help me find music like these and suggest me the gems you have!

My mother, 52 years old, had to leave her job as a school teacher a few years ago as we moved to a different city. Having worked for almost all her life and the fact that it's really difficult to find a job as a school teacher at this age, this has really dented her self-esteem. I realise that the freer she is, the more random domestic work my grandparents will make her do and I hate seeing her slog all day doing things that she doesn't like. She is unhappy with the way things are and really wants to do teach again. My dad, at times, gets pretty condescending at times towards her since she's not earning now. She wants to do something now. The problem is that she's quite influenced by her friends who work at WhiteHatJr and the likes and even tried to join there (before I showed her the true picture), and I don't think that's good for her. Now she has started making YouTube videos for class 11 students which is, in my opinion, a good start. I also looked at other websites like hashlearn and others that she could join. Redditors of India, what would be some good online platforms where she could do something as an alternative to being a full time school teacher? She has enough experience teaching Computer Science to class 11 and 12 students and math upto class 10.

I hope my story will warn others, and maybe help keep a few folk safe. Me, my wife , my 6 month old daughter and two friends were returning to Bangalore from Chennai on Sunday afternoon, in a car. Somewhere 50 kms before Vellore, we say two guys on a bike swerving across the highway in front of us. Pillion rider looked drunk. My wife, who was driving the car, overtook them very cautiously. Immediately these guys overtook us again and waved to make us stop. My wife stopped the car, the pillion rider walked up to us and hit out bonnet and front window. I am not going to lie, I was scared shitless when that happened. My wife immediately took off, and thats when they started chasing us. First we thought that they will eventually give up, but boy were we wrong! They caught up to us a couple of times, and tried to block our parh. But my wife would always find a way out and keep moving. Somewhere 10-15 kms before Vellore, we finally realised that we were in grave danger and needed to call the cops. What followed was ab unsurprising discovery of the incompetence of our law enforcement. Called 100, called Women’s helpline, was transferred a fee times… finally a cop asked us to send him our live location on Whatsapp… and then did nothing! When we entered Vellore, much to our horror we found slow moving traffic! Soon enough the rowdies caught up.. and got off their bike. My wife thought of an idea, and blocked the traffic with our car. We rolled down our window and yelling for help. A small, curious crowd started the building up, those guys were still in front of our car. But eventually they got flustered and got on their bikes and ran away. Needless to say, police didnt call back, no one from the crowd came to help us, and we didnt stop till we hit Bangalore! Now, what I wonder is that, why did this happen? Did they want to extort us? Was it because a woman overtook them? Were they just psychotic? But what I know is that, no one will come to save you n such a situation. Not the police, and not your fellow countrymen. TLDR: 2 guys on a bike chased us for 50+ kms and police was useless.

So basically one of my friend is a student of an university called Assam-University and he told me many things about this university which is quite pathetic and very bad for a student's career. So recently this so called university declared their final semester examinations for the affiliated colleges in offline mode but the main twist is that their own campus students are giving exams in online mode. Moreover,these final students only had 3 months to prepare for their final exams which normally had a period of 6 months atleast. Then another thing which they did in their exam was that they changed the question pattern in the exam hall...yes they changed it in the exam hall..they issued question pattern before the final exams but when the exams arrived they changed the question pattern the students were shocked when they saw this change. This university gives 0 importance to it's students and treats them more like animals. I just want to ask everyone do you people know any other University which is a shit like this? And what can we do about it? Please give some suggestions everyone. Thankyou ;)

So, I was couriering a parcel from New Delhi to the Netherlands (The Hague) and it's been over 10 days. The last update was on the 18th which mentioned that the item was bagged at the EMS office in New Delhi. While I've filed a complaint with India Post, I have no idea of the location of the parcel. What can I do in this situtation?

I want to buy electronic gadgets from abroad how to do it without paying for customs from ebay or banggood. Are they any other websites from were we can buy products?

I have some wireless headphones. But they are too heavy for me when I try to watch a movie on my phone while laying on my bed. They are just so much uncomfortable for my ear and my ear literally starts hurting. Can you suggest some comfortable wireless headphones/tws for watching movies comfortably while I am laying on the bed? Thanks

Looking to buy a pair of truly wireless earbuds around 5K. I don't care about noise cancellation or water resistance. I'm fine with an average battery life too. I just want the best sounding truly wireless earbuds in this price range. I'm willing to spend a little more if it's worth it. I'm confused by all the options available. I don't wanna go with a cheaper brand like Boat but their specs sound good on paper. A friend recommended Mee Audio X10. It's reviews are very positive but they only have a 5mm driver whereas even cheaper Boat earbuds like the 411 Pro have dual 6mm drivers and their higher end models like the 701 have 9mm drivers. Surely that makes a noticeable difference? What do you guys recommend?

I am looking for a therapy counselling but other than searching random doctors on practo, I am not sure what to do. If anyone has any experience in this thing, can you please share? Looking for online but if being in an offline setup makes a huge difference, please let me know.

I can see that many people Counter any argument by saying " YOU NEVER APPRICIATE YOUR GOVERNMENT, YOU CAN SEE ONLY NEGATIVE" Why the fuck i am going to appreciate someone for NOT FUCKING UP THEIR GOD DAMN JOB???? Isn't People's vote enough appreciation??? My boss never praise me for doing something that I am supposed to do on daily basis, i get appreciation for doing something extra-ordinary not my daily work. My teacher never game me Toffee for just passing the exam. Elected Representatives are not doing anything for FREE!!!!!! They draw a decent salary and perks. Moreover these Idiots don't understand that ONLY 23 crore out of 60 crores votes polled (37% ONLY) Voted for NDA And 23 crore votes out of 90 crores(23% ONLY) voters voted for NDA and they are representing more than 65% people in parliament. Our Election system is fucked up. SO stop believing that everyone loves your supreme Leader. He was rejected by 63% People who voted and by 75% of all the voters. Edit 1: LEEAVE THE COUNTRY. Best argument they can have. I cannot see where is criticized the "Democracy" I criticized the " Election Method" Which is currently FPTP( Obviously uneducated retards dont know that). ********************************** Q:suggest better system than "democracy"***** A: Democracy but with different election method. Proportion Representation Almost all European countries also have political proportional representation (ideological proportional representation to the degree that parties honestly describe their goals): When n% of the electorate support a particular political party or set of candidates as their favorite, then roughly n% of seats are allotted to that party or those candidates

Hi everyone! I'm looking to buy a phone for myself at around 25K, a little bit more is fine too. I need my phone for emails, WhatsApp, Telegram, MI Fit, Spotify, Uber, banking, and that's about it. I don't use my phone for gaming, and I'm not on any social media. I do use my phone to read, for office, and to keep in touch with friends and family. I spend a considerable amount of time using my phone. I've been using a Samsung s8 for the past 3.5 years, and it's pretty much dying now. Any suggestions on which phones to get? I've been told to avoid MediaTek. I'd also like a phone which has a good camera, a long lasting battery, and is definitely an upgrade from my current phone. I've also read lots of bad reviews for OnePlus so I'd like to avoid that. I'm a bit sick of Samsung, so I'd like to get something else, but I'm not opposed to Samsung again if it's the best. I'm also looking for a phone for my mom, but her budget is around 15k. She intends to use the phone for banking, WhatsApp, Facebook, Candy Crush, Gpay, and just general browsing. She doesn't spend a lot of time on her phone. She last upgraded her phone 6 years back, and could really use a phone with a good camera (so that we can video call!). She'd like a phone with good storage, long lasting battery, a decent camera, and ideally just the best phone we can get for around 15k. Both phones ideally at least 4g friendly, 5g would be nice but it's not a prioritiy I'm looking for this help before the sales on Flipkart and Amazon so that we can buy phones at the best (cheapest) time. Please help! I'll appreciate any tips. Thank you so much for reading so far!

Hi guy, I'm a mobile game developer, trying to publish my very first game in India. I would love to know where Indian gamers used to download games (besides Playstore and Appstore) and what smartphone brands used the most in India? Any idea? Thank

4G signal boosters seem to be illegal based on some recent news. https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/dot-wireless-wing-cracks-down-on-illegal-signal-boosters-in-delhi/81154122 However, what about external directional antenna? There are many available that we can connect to a 4g SIM based router to replace the internal or cheap external antenna. They seem to work well. Can external antenna too interfere with 4G mobile signals like signal boosters? I have been trying to find out how signal boosters create interference but none of the published stories explain this.

I'm a middle class guy and just got my first job. My father is no more. How much money should I save for my elder sister's marriage?

Hey everyone! I'll be buying a new TV for my parents to replace a 13-year-old Sony 26" LCD in the living room. I haven't been up to date in the television market so I'm looking for suggestions. Purpose: There will be little to no gaming on this TV. My parents watch OTT platforms, movies on a Plex server and news on Tata Sky DTH. The software experience of the TV won't matter much since we have an Nvidia SHIELD at home and plan to get another Android TV Box as necessary. My budget is around 40-50K (can stretch a bit if necessary). We sit pretty far from the TV so would be looking for something in the 50-55" range. Sound won't matter much since we already have a good sound system in place. What brands are reliable?

I was scrolling through Wikipedia last night and I saw this film called Dhoondte Reh Jaoge. There is a subplot in this film in which a gangster funds the film so that it goes flop (it becomes successful so the gangster decides to have the director assassinated). Also I read on somewhere that Kishore Kumar wanted Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi to be a flop so that their company could avoid paying the tax. So I decided to look it up to confirm it and found a source. >Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi was Kishore Kumar's brainchild. But it was his secretary, Anoop Sharma, who is credited as the producer and the film was made under the banner of KS (Kishore Sharma) Films. Kishore, who had believed it would fail commercially and help him write it off as an income tax loss, was taken aback when the film opened on January 1, 1958, and went on to become the second highest grosser of the year. In a panic because he did not want to add to his earnings, Kishore gave the rights away to his secretary. > >Source: [Times of India](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/bollywood/news/kishore-kumar-thought-chalti-ka-naam-gaadi-would-flop/articleshow/39212923.cms) So with both these things in mind, I assume the film producers want their films to go flop so that they don't have to pay taxes for two reasons. 1. They don't have to show their source of income, which is from illegit sources 2. They don't want to give away too much money Also I'm pretty sure the underworld funds Bollywood with black money for the same reason, and just wants the film to give a mediocre performance at the box office so that they get white money in exchange for throwing away a lot of black money. So I thought of a better idea. Instead of spending black money on the production, why not spend it on the box office? Here's the strategy. 1. Make a very low budget film. Spend most of the money on a good script (this will come in handy later in the process) and visual appeal. Bring theatrical actors so that the acting is very good. 2. When the film releases, spend the black money to buy its tickets. Make sure the amount of black money spent is equal to the budget, so for example if the film's budget is ₹20 crore spend exactly ₹20 crore. 3. Since if one person alone buys so many tickets it will look suspicious, so get many people to stand in the line, each buying, let's say, eight tickets each. If it's a don that's the best thing since he can get his henchmen to stand in the line. 4. Seeing such a long line outside theatres, people will want to know why so many people have come to see this film and because of herd mentality, they will also want to see it. 5. The henchmen who have purchased the tickets will tell the people that since the line is very long, they can buy the tickets from them at half the price. 6. With the money received, they will go back to the counter and now buy half the number of tickets. 7. Repeat the process over and over again till there is money for only one ticket. 8. They will then give away the final ticket and take payment through a legit source like, let's say, UPI. So because of this the film will earn almost double the box office collection than the amount applied as black money (x + x/2 + x/4 + x/8 +... = almost 2x minus the price of the final ticket). That added with all those people who genuinely went to watch it, and it's a success. This method will ensure everyone profits through it. * Since the film will be good, the audience will be happy they got to see such a good film at half the price. * The person sitting at the ticket counter will be happy that he got so much money from a film that would have otherwise gone flop. * The henchmen will be happy they got some extra money. They can buy a gutka or something IDK. * Since the henchmen are not being given too much money it can be ensured they won't run away with it. Surely no one would want to risk their life for just a thousand bucks. * The film got the producer double the revenue that too in white money, they will also be happy. * The gangster can be given credit as a "Marketing Director", making his reputation better in the film industry. He can do this same thing for many other films and eventually get recognition for the same. * Some blogger/journalist/YouTuber might make a content on *10 Reasons Why You Should See This Underrated Film*, giving it enough recognition to bring in some actual money. * Since the film was low budget, the production company won't lose too much after paying the tax. It's not like they spent a lot in the first place. * And finally those chodes on Quora who keep saying that Bollywood doesn't make good movies because people don't watch them will finally shut up. I know, since I have no knowledge on how film industry works, there might be many loopholes in this. It can also be possible that this is already happening, since there is no way I can believe a film like Andhadhun or Stree can become this successful.

So recently I have started working in an IT company and I have been allotted a shift from 12.30pm to 9.30pm since the client company is UK based. Since, I am a fresher and i am struggling to adjust to this life-style change. I would appreciate some advice of guidence so that I can adjust and transition into a working individual.

I am a CSE student at tier 3 engineering college. I got my admission through KCET test. I am currently done with 2nd year and now in 3rd year. my college was collecting fees for placement and training since first year. The training was like weekly one class of aptitude. And they say that you are not allowed to sit placement if you do not pay placement fee. Is it how the placement works. Do you guys also paid for placement fee to sit for placement in engineering colleges ?. Is it the norm in every engineering college to take placement and training fees from the first year. The fees is around 10k for each year.

You know where I am coming from. And I might be mistaken myself, so please take the trouble of correcting my view point. India is in no way short of good things to be attributed to. Why we are aiming to get the false glory?

An envelope was at the gate. Went and checked. Shocked to see it had an original aadhar card. Of an old neighbour who'd shifted some 5-6 years ago. The postman hadn't asked us to sign anything. It looks like it's not even a registered post, just a normal post. Postman had simply thrown it in inside our gate like any other spam post. The neighbour is lucky I found it. I'm not in the [business of misusing other people's aadhar](https://www.indiatoday.in/technology/news/story/how-to-save-yourself-from-aadhaar-scams-1416910-2018-12-25). Lucky too because I recognized his name. My family members likely wouldn't have. Called him and told him to come collect it. He's an idiot too for not updating his address despite being educated and shifting years ago. RS Sharma and Nilekani talk about 5 feet thick 13 feet high walls. What use is a 5 feet wall made of poor quality sand?!

honestly I don't have a clue what to do next, I have plenty of option my scores aren't that bad and I'm good at biology and I like it not much of chemistry guy though however I would like to chose something that'll help me get a stable and possibility high pay scale growth, help me guys..

I came to the VLCC Bangalore salon for a pedicure and the lady immediately went “your thighs are big, do you want to reduce it?” I clearly said I’m not looking to reduce it, and she started selling me some ice therapy or something that supposedly reduces the thigh fat in one session. She commented on my stomach and arms and said that they’re fine just my thighs are “the problem”. This is such terrible behaviour just trying to sell their stuff and being so insensitive towards others. The staff is just horrible in general.

I'm a fan of Daniel Craig as 007 ( as I guess are many of you). "No time to die" is about to come out and it will possibly be Craig's last outing as 007. So I decided to re-watch his Bond movies, especially the first one, Casino Royale. I just checked the iTunes Store, Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hotstar and I couldn't find any Bond movies. Any 007 + Daniel Craig fans here? How to watch his movies legally in India?

Hey guys, So I've been living at my new place since 10 months and we've been waiting for some good ISP to come in bec Jiofibre wasn't available. They say that the local isp doesn't allow Jio to start services here. The local isp is a ripoff. Mf is charging 4000 rs for a fibre connection. Also, this fibre connection will be useless bec I'll be subscribing to only a 25 mbps connection and fibre is for 100+. So definitely not going to him. Airtel, too was not available according to their website. But I recently got a call and after a while the guy said that Airtel copper broadband is available in my area. He said it would give me 40 mbps, which is fine and the prices, which I don't actually know, should be fine if they are according to the website. Please tell me about the copper charges if anyone's got it. Also, should I go for this? My usage is just basic family stuff. We got a smart tv long ago but we watch stuff on it on low quality bec no wifi. So this is the only major requirement. Thanks :)

I have an Airtel unlimited plan of 1.5 GB/day and I'm facing a strange problem. The daily limit exhausts at 12:00 midnight everyday and if I use up all data before then, the FUP kicks in and I'm unable to browse anything. However, even after 12:00 midnight the speed doesn't increase automatically (ideally it should as the next day has begun and the next day's quota starts). It only increases when I reboot my phone. Have any of you faced something like this, what could be the problem here? Is the problem with my handset or airtel? I've also checked once by using a Jio SIM for testing and this issue didn't occur with Jio.

my\_qualifications: 10th CBSE: 91.8%, 12th Karnataka Board: 86.2% I want to pursue Bcom. I have started some basic preparation for UPSC like glancing through CBSE History books and have started reading newspapers. This is my plan, during my 1st year, I want to start basic preparation in subjects like History, Geography, Civics, and Polity which are compulsory subjects even if the UPSC pattern changes. During the 2nd year, I want to attend coaching in Bangalore at India4IAS academy and increase my skills in writing. During the 3rd year, I want to polish my skills and concentrate on my final year study, and finally write my UPSC and other Civil Services. Could you guys help/ suggest to me how I can improve my preparation. Also, any other suggestion would be helpful.

I heard about this application called Concierge in a podcast that is popularised in Pakistan to help non-residential Pakistanis help their parents get any form of household help, medicine delivery, doctor's consultation or contact part-time nurses and drivers all within the comfort of a single app. Since I've worked with development myself, I know that it's not as difficult to make it happen within one app, with a very user-friendly interface, such that old people can get help as soon as possible. I think it will have a great following considering that there are more and more households with older people now. Is anyone willing to collaborate? Any comments about the issue, briefing about the aspects of the problem and any suggestions in regards to how this service can be improved will be highly appreciated.

Kaha se aate hain ye log? I saw a profile of a girl featured on BYJUs. She is from JBIMS(top college in Maharashtra), has many certifications, #1 in extracurriculars, writing experience and more. How is it possible to achieve so much when you're 25? I am 23 and completed BCOM from a bad college and pursuing LLB from a worst college. I am getting 0 in my law internship and I suck at it. Also have many undiagnosed mental illness and issues.

Given the current demand for tech resources and salary reaching all time high. How would a company seriously offering a 4 day week (4x10) be of a value both financially and long term commitment to the high in demand tech skilled resource. If you had 2 offers one from 4 days and one from 5 day which would you consider assuming all things being same (including salary)? If you choose 4 day, and the salary was higher for 5 days offer would you still consider the 4 day offer and at what salary difference will this change? To take this further to 4 days 8 hours, Would you consider a job offering 20% less salary to 5 days 8 hours or 4 day 10 hour job acceptable? If not what would be your financial value of a extra day of holiday. Not a random question but seriously looking from some insights before forming our startup policy. Edit - just to rephrase, this is not a question on let them complete the task whenever and however they want to work. Since most people don't work in silos and a task of one has a depency on another and in addition having meetings (internally and externally) require to have a work boundary defined. I agree the focus is on the completion of work not if it is 4 days or 5 days. Project / delivery planning require some consistency especially if you need to work around the customer.

Asking this for my mother, who is a retired banker. She is keen to do CA and has recently registered herself for Foundation. Any idea if this is something which is practically achievable ?

I get that we people and gain experience but working from home helps me do a lot of things all the while supporting my family financially. I don't think people understand that part, people get to save a ton of money by working from home and in these circumstances it is extremely important to do so. If it was an option for people to be come back then I wouldn't complain, but why make it mandatory? If my work can be done from home with same quality, why can't I work from home? This is especially helpful for people who's native is in a completely different state. These people will have to spend a lot on travelling and accomodation. I'm not against work from office but if my work can be done from home, my quality of work is good and if I need to work from home because it's good for me then why not allow it? Let me know your thoughts
