So India is helping them clear some of those camps. Pakistan can very well be thankful for this one then!

Unfortunately, India's poorest still don't get govt benefits due for them: A few gobble up all the caste-based reservation from the govt. I have seen many people who have made a career out of talking about caste all the time.

I know more than 3 people in the US, who talk about caste all the time (as in that's their job now) but grew up in very privileged families.

Could be because the Indian Premier Cricket League (IPL), which started in 2008, is huge now. Here's the per match broadcast value of sports leagues around the world (Jun 2023):

1.NFL: $17 million

2. IPL: $13.4 million

3. EPL: $11 million

4. MLB: $11 million

5. NBA: $9 million

Alternatively (and I know many folks won't like this idea), Reddit can offer to buy out Apollo and the other 2-3 top iOS and Android apps with a generous Discounted Cash Flow market value; These Apps have put a lot of effort in development over the years and they have helped make Reddit better and more accessible.

Same. Testing is an issue. I bought into the Hotwire idea on a recent project. But I can’t see how it’s any different then SSR + jQuery. They have some nice ideas, but it requires every team member to know the whole thing top to down. Backend engineers can’t always be burdened with taking care of HTML/templating/Writing JS specific functions. Feels almost wrong to me at how hard it has been sold.

I meant in terms of the rotating motion, not wear and tear :)... since the OP was about Nature vs. Propellers.

The awareness is growing now, especially in the internet generation. A lot of people in rural areas are quite out of touch with basic healthcare, let alone mental healthcare. India is too big to generalise: from Instagram influencers to beggars (watching whom will break your heart), there's a whole everything.

Well, nature does not use Tyres either.

Seriously! Indian govt institutes are so blasé about modernizing their ways that it's embarrassing.

So the Indian Institute of Sciences hasn't got the memorandum on psychological counselling yet?
