Five Adani Group companies have settled SEBI proceedings arising from issues examined in connection with the Hindenburg Research report.

Adani Enterprises, Adani Total Gas, AWL Agri Business, Adani Green Energy, and Adani Energy Solutions paid a combined ₹1.508 crore (about US$157K, depending on the exchange rate).

The proceedings concerned alleged disclosure issues involving related-party transactions and audit/limited-review reports. The companies settled without admitting or denying the findings of fact or conclusions of law.

Atleast you're getting the unicorn. I am getting 404 on valid links. For a moment I thought the repo is gone.

Idea. They can develop all they want, only the government should be the one buying and selling weapons. That way if a government decides to sell weapons to genocidal maniacs, people can vote that government out.
That's also how fascists get to power. You give them freedom, they use that freedom to get into power and take away your freedom.
A logger working for a company cutting a few trees to make furniture is not the same thing as a logger working for a company shredding the whole forest to circulate money.
Every island is capable of hosting pedophiles, but they don't. The one island that's famous for pedos is the one Musk wanted to be invited to. Find me more pedo islands, I'll dunk on them too very consistently. Whether it's AI with CSAM or islands with pedos, Musk is definitely consistent.

You can't be serious, people went to jail for it. I am out...

George Papadopoulos - his foreign policy adviser

Rick Gates - his deputy campaign manager

Paul Manafort - his campaign chairman

So factually proven Russian interference in the United States elections does not invalidate election. Maduro interference, the veracity of which can be reasonably doubted in your very own words, does invalidate the election.

Comically ridiculous reasonable people.

The puppet tows the line of the "elected" dictator, who is famous for killing his opponents. But comically ridiculous reasonable people still consider them both presidents of their respective nations.

That's what I said. Yes it's a fact and not merely a commonly held view that Trump's campaign had Russian actors, but reasonable people still consider him President, and not a puppet placed by Putin.

The same way any reasonable person thinks Trump is the government of US of A, regardless of his affinity to scammers, pedophiles or Russia. Wishful thinking does not change facts.

Here's some BS for you.

That's an unfair mischaracterization of their position. Criticism doesn't equal rejection, and skepticism isn't the same as ignorance. Pointing out limitations, failures, or hype doesn't mean they are claiming there's nothing useful or that the entire technology is inherently worthless.

Being critical is not about denying all value—it’s about demanding evidence, accuracy, and clarity amid inflated claims. In fact, responsible critique helps improve technology by identifying where it falls short, so it can evolve into something genuinely useful and reliable.

What you're calling "willful ignorance" is, in reality, a refusal to blindly accept marketing narratives or inflated expectations. That’s not being closed-minded—that’s being discerning.

If there is something truly valuable, it will stand up to scrutiny.

One would expect that the military "superpowers" would shut up after losing wars to desert tribes and farmers but here we are. One is in the 3rd year of their 3 day war, and the other is tweeting in circles about bombing, ceasefires, deporting mexican labours and deporting south african billionaires.

It's amazing how it goes from all the knowledge in the world to ** terms and conditions apply, all answers are subject to market risks, please read the offer documents carefully.........
I am failing to see why would anyone choose to bypass all the existing options with ratings and reputations, to find a service provider. It's going completely opposite to the customers' interests.

Also "offer services mostly to people they know" conflicts with your business. If I am offering services to people I know, I message them, and they pay me cash. Why would a 3rd party be involved in it ? Unless you're offering some sort of checks / security, at which point you're competing with the existing services.

You mention "services like tutoring, babysitting, pet sitting, transportation, home repair, and various other tasks they could carry out after their working hours.". Anyone looking for a babysitter will firstly need someone local and someone they can trust their baby with. And there already exist several services catering such needs. Your first users will all have to be from same neighbourhood for the app to be useful for any of them.
Except Government of India seems to want more (unchecked) foreign influence.

Right now when you buy a car you expect it to have wheels. This may change in the future when Apple starts selling cars and you'd need to check if it includes wheels or not. But it's not hard to imagine that people will continue to expect wheels in a new car for some time.
The law has to draw a line somewhere. Cars have to come with wheels, even if wheels are available for purchase. Appliances have to come with power cable, even if wires are available for purchase.
Though not legally mandated,telecom providers in India insist on tying the SIM to the Indian biometric ID called Aadhar. Each ID can be associated to upto 9 SIMs.
