I find it good looking. Refreshing new take.

The original thing is now called Fiddler Classic and it is still Windows only. Not maintained anymore, sadly. It has first class scripting support.

For macOS settled on Charles back then but not as capable as Fiddler.

I have the same router. It is great when it works, but goes out often. One trick that has helped a lot is to set it on auto reboot. I have set mine to 4 am every morning and it has been doing great for months now. It is a compromise, but I hardly notice the issue now.

There is another sort of worst case (company's perspective): An employee thinks they need to rebuild their house and needs to do it all by hand, hence will be on leave for the next six months. Or, say, wants to explore Europe backpacking and hence needs break for the next two months.

With unlimited PTO the biggest challenge is to define (both ways) what qualifies for a good reason to go on a leave.

I have enjoyed unlimited PTO wherever I had. But I tried to have my own benchmark of about four weeks in a year. Of course, there have been times when I needed more, and it was fine. There have been times when I didn't need four weeks either, and I was okay with that too!

You should look at clasp by Google https://github.com/google/clasp

Have used it in past to do exactly what you asked for.

Exactly the point I am making. You can do the analysis and determine the scale but you can't change the official COVID numbers.

In fact, that is even the link you shared shows. It compared the overall death rate with the official COVID numbers and proved the numbers are conservative, in US. Of course.

Unfortunately, it is hard to get those numbers correctly. COVID patients die because of multiple organ failure and unless the deceased was already tested and verified for it, you can't attribute the death to COVID officially. A lot of people pass away without showing visible symptoms or without realizing they need immediate medical attention for COVID.

It would be good to have that attribution and that will require testing the deceased, but given the load on the system, everybody can extrapolate the scale and act accordingly.

Great initiative! As someone who has worked on Auth systems multiple times, I can so much relate to it. In fact, at one of the jobs I created something quite generic (SSO by SSO, multiple token types, multiple interfaces (including OAuth), multiple password backends, email domain specific verification methods, etc. Wanted to open source it, but then given it was related to security and we were not really a security company, we let go of that plan.

All the best to you and your team!

Policy change will continue to happen. And they happen because someone is rooting for them. You can't penalize a Industrialist for being an Industrialist. They are wealth generators and are doing that for a large number of people and not themselves alone (you can argue by how much).

BTW, Farmers have enjoyed their share of handouts which are more or less treated as entitlement now a days: 1. Tax free income 2. Subsidies, lona waivers, electricity bill waivers 3. Minimum Support Price for the longest time

Anger can be real, but don't know if it is informed and rational. All I hear is that it is bad, but not able to find information how. Most of the protestors don't even know the details of what is being changed.

And, frankly, at this stage if you think somebody like Modi or Rahul Gandhi or Kejriwal is about helping their friends make quick buck, the story doesn't add up. In their position they would think and act for legacy and it becomes much more a capability issue instead of intent.

Red cloth is commonly used in Pooja, and you put Red tika (and rice grains) on forhead. Brides traditionally wear predominantly red clothes for certain ceremonies during wedding. Red, Yellow/Amber, and White are quite common during rituals in North. Are they not in South India?
