Despite substantial investments by the Indian government, there is still potential for accelerating progress towards achieving India’s development goals.
I'm looking for examples of what I'd refer to as "progressive tutorials". Coding or other tech-related tutorials that introduce progressive ideas and themes, without being overtly political.
Housing isn't meant to be affordable
Michel Durand-Wood April 25, 2024
"...According to data from the US Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, indexed home prices in the US are 88.1% higher than they were in 2005, near the peak of the “housing bubble,” making it the second highest of the G7 countries. [Literature fans will recognize that as “foreshadowing.”]
...Turns out that a return to Victorian-era practices of locking out an entire class of people from land ownership tends to lead to civil unrest and revolt...
...We’re screwed if housing prices keep going up. We’re also screwed if they go down. That’s the trap..."

This wouldn’t work today as, often, craftsmen are paid more and are higher on social ladder than clerks. How would you adjust the criteria for modern-day working class check?
Missed Office Hours last week? No problem: the full recording is ready to watch on YouTube and @tilvids.
The 3 developers behind the effort to bring native Microsoft Exchange support to Thunderbird discuss their adventures in Rust, and explain the long-term benefits and steep challenges associated with this project.
I've been using cargo (#RustLang package manager) for [cough] yrs and it is very nice. But always on my Ubuntu laptop. #Linux
That laptop died so right now I'm using an old Windows 10 (not 11 as stated earlier) laptop with #WSL and I have cargo building in #Windows and Ubuntu 22 (under WSL) and it just works.
Cross platform #development used to be one of the hardest most frustrating things, but tools like #cargo and #Tauri have changed all that.
I've updated my ansible-dev-pc¹ repository to support the recently released Ubuntu 24.04 (hence my discussion on getting .NET to behave). This supports Desktop Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, Pop!_OS 22.04, and Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 in WSL 2.
I'm still waiting for Pop!_OS 24.04 to be released so I can verify it there as well.
Hey web developers, this may seem like a dumb question, but when I was a young warthog you would link to a directory (just a simple "a href"), and if that directory had an index.html page it would assume that's what you wanted. Now I'm just getting one of those "Index of" pages (with that index.html page visible!) is it because it's running locally instead of a proper web server? Has this just overall changed and I didn't know? #programming#html#development#webdevelopment#webdevelopers#web
Hoy quiero anunciar un nuevo proyecto en el que estoy trabajando: un cliente para el escritorio de #peeertube
Mi idea es hacer algo más o menos sencillo, básicamente navegar por la instancia que quieras usar, buscar, ver vídeos, descargarlos, etc., y sin necesidad de tener cuenta en ninguna instancia.
Lo estoy programando usando Tauri, VUE y poco más, lo empecé con Python y Flet, pero Flet aun le faltan cosas por implementar, aparte de varias optimizaciones.
The more modest a developer is, the smaller the application version increments. Some indie coders add brilliant new functionality, and change the version from 0.9 to 0.9.1, while corporations often add a few minor improvements once a year, and jump from 1.0 to 2.0.
If your hands didn't look working class, the Bolsheviks shot you. What is the modern equivalent?
