    The book I am reading currently

    Kindle is much suitable to reading larger volumes of books. Otherwise storage is an issue. I buy physical copies only as gifts. Loved it. Unfortunately read it after 'the peacemaker's code' which had same narrative background ( that memory loss related sci if ). Would highly recommend...

    Android Limit on Android phone releases.

    it has a marketing advantage. Atleast a perceived one. Such frequent releases was one thing Samsung employed to be the largest seller. It also helped them kill off competition who couldn't keep up. Moreover, phone buyers look at latest releases or are recommended newer releases. Old models...

    Review I have been scammed by Flipkart and AMD

    Was skeptical of flipkart ever since a return experience with myntra. They were very shady ( right from packing to customer care). Seems the protocol is the same with flipkart Retweeted and liked the tweet. Request other members to do same. Follow similar complaints against flipkart in...

    A2 Ghee a scam?

    reminds me of something I came across this week butter production in Bangladesh, U.S. cheese production, and sheep population in Bangladesh and the U.S. together “explained” (in a statistical sense) 99% of the annual movements of the S&P 500 between 1983 and 1993. (The paper in which he...

    Why did edible oil prices in India go up so quickly?

    Ukraine is a major sunflower oil producer. So major players like Adani stocked up oil as there was a warning on possible war. Others are scrambling. As a result Alternate oil prices have gone up. Palm oil is at all time high by some margin.

    A2 Ghee a scam?

    Quite surprised to see that nothing has changed in 2015. Around ~70s a lot of studies were conducted on large number of population for years to study effects on diet. This was done by various western countries. At that point it was theoretically known that animal fat is bad for health compared...

    A2 Ghee a scam?

    I know a family which doesn’t take milk because of doctors advice. They vouch that it helped them. I also know of a vegetarian who doesn’t take milk. He ended up having vision issues. The issue was diagnosed as one of nutrition. He wasn’t poor by any means and had good food habits The vegan...

    A2 Ghee a scam?

    I never said or implied that the kiwis will try to sell milk here. Just saying that the story wasnt invented by us . And that replacing one milk with another is bad for the country.

    A2 Ghee a scam?

    Quite the contrary The origin of the marketing isn’t Indian. A company in NZ tried to promote a1 as harmful compared to a2. Even there was a book promoting a1. They are a listed global company with major markets including NZ and Australia We will be the losers here. We need more milk at...

    A2 Ghee a scam?

    Ultimately it doesn’t matter. The whole a1 a2 milk debate itself is just a fad with half baked results which was not scientifically continued to any conclusion. So it doesn’t matter what the ghee is. Only make sure you pay more for the a2 one because of inefficiency in the breed themselves...

    Health & Fitness Which Term Insurance Company to go with?

    A friend took health insurance from max life for his parents. They denied claim citing they didn’t disclose they had diabetes. They had done health check up and diabetes was confirmed at the time of policy. During changing houses they lost the report which was good enough for them to make up...

    Sell old AC or keep using it

    6 year old doesn’t seem to be too old or enough to get sufficient benefits in power consumption. And the amount mentioned seems too low. Personally I have been keeping appliances for 8 years and then waits for a good exchange offer.
