    Which Stock portfolio manager do you use?

    I mostly use for Mutual Funds - Valueresearch, Moneycontrol, ET Money and Morningstar.in MorningStar presents a quite good summary for the overall portfolio but somehow transaction wise detail is either mising or i have not found it. So i generally key in the overall amount per mutual fund...

    ETMoney App

    I am not sure whether it allows you to buy mutual funds as it is not associated with any bank, MF platform or fund houses. However, you can use this to track your portfolios - pretty neat interface. If you are especially tracking direct mutual funds, it will help you organize. Never enter any...

    All OS Smartphone screens harbour 3 times more germs than a toilet seat

    The future will be without phones or screens - ear embedded noise isolation speakers with skin conducting microphone. Contact lenss fitted Projection lenses to overlay the halo images. This will take away the spread of Germs ;-) I know i am reading too much sci-fi!

    Need a large (36-40 inch monitor) primarily for coding

    I have but, when working with multiple code base (connected to various repos) plus the large amount of plugins, you can't beat eclipse.

    All OS Smartphone screens harbour 3 times more germs than a toilet seat

    As far as i know, no food poisoning or hospitalization occurred by using Galaxy s8, so if this is a fact that there are so many germs, then we should thank Gs8 that it is making our body immune to those batceria which take free screentime. I think i read somewhere - what does not kill you makes...

    caselabs goes bankrupt

    Don't understand the reason, the tarrifs are not yet imposed and they already got bankrupt? Looks like the founders are just looking for reasons to save face and get better terms in bankruptsy

    Stereo computer speakers

    Rpi's does not have a good DAC. You might want to consider buying Justboom DAC HAT which can provide a good sound signature and also has 3.5 mm jack for headphone with 138mV output. https://www.rhydolabz.com/raspberry-pi-raspberry-pi-accessories-c-201_204/justboom-dac-hat-p-2422.html

    Android Mi 8

    Why do you ask when you know the answer? ;-) Anyway, duplication of popular product has more or less brought success as says history books, but some take it too far and listen to their Marketing folks more than real people

    Budget 90k+ booo's 2018 build

    Yes, but there are answers already, for e.g BF, Farcry, metro were already very efficient. I believe it is the engines that were more restricting and nobody wanted to re-invent it given modular development and focussing more on functionality than technique. The constant pressure to shorten the...

    Need a large (36-40 inch monitor) primarily for coding

    Just wondering why 27 inch is not enough? Use some emulators and VM side by side? I generally find adding a second screen much benefical then increasing screen size

    Brand name on lip - What a desperate attempt to carve out a differentiation! I hope it does not require swiping "M" to unlock ;-)

    Apple Inc. is now a US $1 Trillion company

    They do lot of assembly design and testing. Only a few core people are involved in breakthrough tech and they are supposed to maintain secret services type silence. That is no R&D. The R&D is able to give freedom to people, example is google where any new voted idea breaks out into a product and...

    Bitcoin drops

    ^No it is not. But ASIC, as the name implies are specific to specific hashing algorithm hence ASIC for bitcoin won't mime Ethereum or others. GCs don't suffer this problem and hence are more suited. Moreover finding antminer at decent rate was impossible. People also knew that after the...

    Apple Inc. is now a US $1 Trillion company

    ^yep, those are the critics pointing out the problem. It's a simple math, you continue to make same mistake you will continue to have same results, it just a matter of time. What is not pointed out in that article is the assets that Apple has that Nokia didn't had. Hence Apple slide may not be...

    Xiaomi Mi A2 launched in India on Aug. 8

    ^ this is the beauty of open source, you get these geniuses out of the bag. Developers had that "thing" for Apple during good old Jailbreaking days, Cydia repository was known for good and bad things, but it was indeed a charm to break that Apple Tv2 and get that ssh and XBMC running!

    Bitcoin drops

    Gamers rejoice! Bitcoin at 6k and with increasing difficulty to mine, it is now becoming more profitable to gamble on trading bitcoin than mining it. Also, with lot of newbies investing in past few months when bitcoin came down from highs of 19k to 8k, the loss is becoming frustrating for...

    Less than 10K Good Looking Feature Phone

    Well, you may have forgotten that everybody may not be in india ;-) The convenience of group video call, quick reply in email, a quick check on Calendar and option of browsing, cricket scores justfies the usage on phone rather than opening a laptop. The benefits may mean, slightly additional...
