Exactly. This has happened to a friend. They were able to find my friend's name from Truecaller. Soon they started getting fake calls to get her account number or aadhar number. If my friend's aadhar data had been leaked (as has f

That's not how it works. Your aadhar account is linked to one number. Why do you need to link all your numbers to your aadhar? Besides the link is not two way. Case in point - a friend forgot to recharge their phone. The phone went out

SMS is not safe as a 2 factor. The known attacks I have come across in India include the hacker somehow coming across your sim card number and using that to get a new sim card issued in your name. A lot of people have had their bank account

I remember 1-1.5 years ago, the Supreme Court had asked the government to publish widely in print and electronic media to make it clear that Aadhar was not mandatory. It was never done. I don't really see a situation where the governme

yes, just read the news that driving licenses have to be linked with aadhar. Phone numbers have to be too. Pretty soon it would be impossible to do anything without aadhar = end of privacy

I was going to post exactly this. I always solve scheduling problems with GAs and get great results. It's easy to do and does not require any domain knowledge. It would probably take just a few hours to solve this using a GA, maybe eve

You are right. I forgot about the charges for the demat account - there are AMC charges of Rs.300 per year. So that makes zerodha coin about Rs.75 per month. But there are no transaction charges in zerodha on buying equity (delivery) or MF.

I currently use zerodha for investing in mutual funds. Both offer direct funds. There are no transaction charges with zerodha coin, no demat charges either, but they do charge a flat monthly fee of Rs.50, regardless of the number of transac

Are you guys incorporated in India , or the US, or both? Asking this because the yc requirements page suggests that every company would have to incorporate in the US.

My guess would be yes. I'm thinking this could be used to find out how effective a particular marketing campaign was. Just compare the forecast with actuals and the difference would be the number of sales/clicks you got from that

They probably take into account day-specific trends , such as if the data shows sales are usually lower on a Monday than a Tuesday, they would take that into account in the forecast. This is as far as I understand. So, assuming they are doi

Agree about Matrix. You get addresses such as @username:example.com , which work somewhat like email addresses. The example.com part is the homeserver, analogous to gmail.com or yahoo.com in emails. Users can communicate across homeservers

Electron would be analogous to Cordova, which is what ionic is based on. Something like Microsoft fabric or similar, or even bootstrap would be the analogous thing for desktop.

This can't be done in iOS though. I think crosswalk uses the default iOS WebKit because of an apple restriction.
