Starting a company while still continuing on TN Visa? AFAIK I don't think you can start a company on TN Visa or be self-employed.ie., start a company and work in it. You may have to try E2 or other visa category.

I tried Markdown->Hugo->Cloudflare pages route. If you need all bells and whistles of Wordpress you can generate static pages off a local wordpress installation[0] using a WP plugin[1] and host in Cloudflare pages

A basic audit-trail can be implemented by using Postresql triggers [1]. It logs client IP, statement, before & after changes and can be enabled on selected tables. [1] https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Audit_trigger_91plus

I've explored multiple Graphql solutions for PostgreSQL in the past and couldn't convince of the resolvers based approach and always felt that an extension would be the right solution. The closest I've come across and used so far is Graphjin https://github.com/dosco/graphjin . Thanks Supabase for the fantastic extension!

Good to know. We're trying to attempt something similar[1] but for Tamil. I'm also surprised how well the OSS language model & library AI4Bharat [2] performs for NLP tasks against SoTA systems. Is there a way to contact you? [1] https://vpt.ai/posts/about-us/ [2] https://ai4bharat.org/projects/

I could see close parallels with ancient martial art Kalaripayattu [1] practiced in southern Indian state of Kerala. It's very popular and still being practiced there [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalaripayattu

I guess the name is play of words on Haskell (it's written on) + Sanskrit Asura (meaning demon)

Yes, but in english it's simply used to mean as outcast instead of all the social connotations that it carries from it's originating language Tamil.

Kerala is in the forefront of most of the social indicators among Indian states [1] and in general has better disaster management. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerala_model

I've been using a starter kit[1] to build our API.For database access using Modl[2] similar to gorp but uses sqlx internally. Much of the data access code is generated as I'm of opinion reflection based ORM doesn't lend itself well in Go.

Voting on the machines per se is not the problem, rather the current system is. In India electronic voting machines are exclusively used for all state and national elections and were kept deliberately non-networked by design.IIRC the technology is being 'exported' to other countries as well. http://www.firstpost.com/india/evm-tampering-why-india-stand...

I'd recommend Flask-Restful https://github.com/twilio/flask-restful I've recently used in an API project involving Elasticsearch.
