Threw together a basic #SelfHosted long form blog. Now comes the hard part of actually writing blog posts 😄
This blog also acts as a landing page for all my self hosting experiments.

Deadly stampede in Kumbh Mela. 7 dead, dozens injured. These are estimates being reported because the govt doesn't believe in releasing statistics that make them look bad.
It's not that hard. If you can't ensure a safe and secure event, don't organize one!
Unfortunately in India, lives of the common people are not important for the authorities.

The thing that worries me the most about India's future is the complete destruction of any intellectual support system.
Our universities are a sham, things like libraries or museums are non-existant, there are no quiet public spaces at all, no wonder our research output is in the dumps.
And the only people who can possibly effect a change - our students - are either planning to move out of India (if they are privileged), or are killing themselves under massive pressure to score in exams and join the rat race for a living.
And our capitalists are pontificating on 90hr work weeks. Don't be confused - if any of them was actually concerned about improving India's global position, they would try to fix the real problem instead of focusing on a non-solution that just happens to makes them even richer. Capitalism is a cancer.

Repeat after me:
I will always use explicit import lists in my #Haskell or #PureScript projects. The only exception is importing Prelude
Finally I have a nice way to give presentations - #Remarkable tablet screen sharing works flawlessly with https://github.com/rien/reStream
The first rule to follow when getting a new internet enabled device or gadget is to *NOT* update the software to the latest version.
Atleast hold off any updates until *after* you have read and internalized all the community created notes and information about the device on the internet, and explored the various #FOSS tricks and hacks created by people.
I have made this mistake several times. The most recent being updating my #Remarkable tablet to software version 3.16 which is unsupported by all the hacks and toolkits available online. Now I have to explore rolling back versions and potentially bricking my device.
