s4chin··on GNU LibreJS
I attended an RMS lecture about free software and the GNU movement. To me, RMS just seems to be too paranoid about "non-free" software to the point that it just seems impractical.

He spoke about LibreJS and about why we should complain, but I wasn't really convinced due to the exact same reason you mentioned.

s4chin··on Saving Private Flipkart
True, I was a huge fan of Flipkart since the time it only used to sell books. Then the delivery charges increased, discount reduced and Amazon and Snapdeal looked like much better options.

Even now I look at flipkart to check out the price of stuff, but it is usually more than the rest.

Flipkart lost customers confidence, is what I think.

s4chin··on Saving Private Flipkart
On the basis of customer satisfaction only, Amazon is far ahead of Flipkart at least in India.

If you search Quora for a Flipkart vs. Amazon, you will be amazed by the reviews (most favour Amazon).

This is just one: https://www.quora.com/Is-Flipkart-better-than-Amazon-in-Indi...

There are many more such questions on Quora. I've read a lot of reviews and this was the result: Amazon is more responsive to complaints, returns, usually cheaper and satisfying the customer. Flipkart is doing way worse than Amazon in these departments. There are even a few answers about how Flipkart delivered the wrong product.

s4chin··on I was an undercover bot for 2 months
Can a bot be made which understands emotions, sarcasm, etc.? Can something be made which does more than just parse commands and gives out predefined replies? If so, how far away are we from this?

s4chin··on Friction Between Programming Professionals and Beginners
As a self taught programmer, I went from a beginner to an intermediate level by learning from websites and books. My suggestion to beginners would be to read some stuff about the technology they want to use, then read and implement a few tutorials where they will make example apps, etc. This clarifies the terminology and makes it easier to describe the problem, read docs, etc. Because 99% of beginner problems have already been answered on StackOverflow. I have had some bad experience with SO but it was mostly due to not searching properly. I definitely understand how beginners feel. But if someone kept asking me how to reverse an array in C++ repeatedly, even I would be pissed.
