In the name of national security, the agencies do whatever they like, and what's worse, people buy the narrative

People want openness, transparency, freedom, participation regardless of whether they are CEOs or not. Now HN's got it.

There was all of that from the beginning. The difference now HN is well known world wide.

BSNL still on ipv4

Free will is limited. For instance did you choose your parents? Did you get to choose where you would be born? So right from birth you don't have much free will. But make the best of what you got

Yes, it's excellent.

I also like flutter compared to one of these webview solutions. There are good alternatives in other languages like Go (https://gioui.org/)

UPI (Unified Payments Interface) transactions using VPA (Virtual Payment Address) are free for now. Around 6 billion transactions are processed every month. But apparently the Indian govt is planning on adding a 50 paise (₹0.5; $1 ≈ ₹80) transaction fee in the future.

Correct. It is due to the politics and incessant greed of human nature that our ecological problems are difficult to reverse.

From the politics POV, they must impose a limit on how much factories should produce, because ultimately the climate problem has been caused due to our exploitation of resources and their eventual disposal as waste.

Less production = less waste = better ecology

But if you remember what happened with the toilet papers during covid, I don't have to remind you what's going to happen when production of most goods is unanimously reduced.

There will be those who panic buy, and those who intentionally hoard, and a basic shortage of everything which I'm sure humanity in general is not willing to cope with for the sake of our environment. Hence, reversing the damage cannot be possible.

However, those who want to try, I wish you all the best in your endeavours.
