Should Crypto Firms Become Bigger Sponsors in Indian Sports?
Crypto companies have increasingly explored sports sponsorships as a way to introduce their brands to millions of potential users. India, with its enormous sports audience, offers a particularly attractive market for companies looking to build mainstream recognition. Sponsorships can make crypto feel more familiar to people who may never actively follow the industry, but they also raise questions about responsible marketing. Crypto remains a relatively complex and volatile asset class, so advertising it alongside popular sports could potentially blur the line between brand awareness and investment promotion. Should Indian crypto companies be encouraged to sponsor major sporting events, or should stricter rules govern how these brands market themselves?
Do you actually put oily kadhais in the dishwasher or is that asking for trouble?
I keep seeing mixed opinions about heavily greasy utensils. I’m fine with handwashing the difficult stuff, but wondering where people draw the line.
Dishwashers sound convenient, but are there some utensils people still prefer washing by hand?
I have seen people use dishwashers for everyday plates and cups but handle certain larger utensils separately. Wondering where the line usually is.
Crypto and Prediction Markets: Where Does Investing End and Betting Begin?
Prediction markets have become increasingly popular, allowing users to trade contracts based on outcomes of elections, sports events, economic data, and other real-world events. Supporters see them as a way to turn collective expectations into useful information, while critics argue that they can blur the line between financial markets and gambling. As prediction markets grow, where should the line between speculation and betting be drawn?
I am switching from Copilot to Claude. Feeling existential crisis for my job!
I was using Copilot, where I had to review every line and make changes. On the other side, Claude Code writes the code and tells that it is done. Now I feel lazy as the work is done better than I do. I am worried about layoffs, as Claude is doing an amazing job. Do you think the IT industry will see a major crisis in the next few months?
Has anyone tried using ChatGPT for interview prep, does it give realistic answers?
I have an interview line up. Thinking of using ChatGPT. Has anyone else tried ChatGPT too? How was the experience?
AI influencers on social media platforms are very annoying.
The line between creator and creation is getting blurred. It’s difficult to distinguish between the real influencer and an AI one. Now we get instant replies and chats. Isn’t this annoying? Don’t you think it’s more of a manipulation over innovation?
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra: A True AI Phone?
Samsung wants the Galaxy S26 Ultra to feel like a phone that's one step ahead. Features like Now Nudge, a smarter search, and a more conversational Bixby are all pushing in that direction. Your phone suggests a photo before you go looking, reminds you about plans without you having to dig around, and handles multi-step tasks with a single command.
It sounds genuinely useful on paper. But there's a fair question underneath all of it: does this kind of AI actually save time in day-to-day life, or does it start feeling like the phone knows too much after the novelty wears off?
For users in India especially, where phone habits are pretty personal and varied, that line between helpful and intrusive can shift quickly. Would love to know how people actually feel about AI shaping the way they use their phones daily.

Which is better? Le 1s or iPhone SE?
Apple announced the iPhone SE and the web is going wild about it! The Verge says "The new iPhone SE finally makes a small phone feel powerful", TechRadar says that its "Small but mighty!" and The Telegraph calls it "Apple's secret weapon". Lots of superlatives are being thrown around, as is always the case with Apple products. So, in the midst of Apple's reality distortion field, I decided to compare it to my Le 1s - that I've been using for more than a month now. The results, at least for me, are very conclusive.
Let's start with the OS. Android and iOS are now at-par on features, freely taking inspiration from each other and the perennial also-ran Windows Phone. However, if you've been using an Android phone, the move to iOS is jarring regardless of preparation. Trust me, having moved from a OnePlus 2 to an iPhone 6S, I know this better than most. If you're an iPhone user already, there is no discussion required. If you're an Android user, then I'd say "Don't even consider an iPhone!"
Moving on to design and build, the new iPhone is, in line with Apple's policy "thinner, smaller and lighter" than the Le 1s. However, the Le 1s has an astounding screen-to-body ratio of 75% that enables single-handed use and the phone doesn't feel too big. After all, within reason, bigger is always better! Both phones offer amazing build quality at their respective price points, so that's not really much of a contest.
On display, if you like smaller screens, the iPhone SE will appeal to you. But for someone who has used a 4+ inch screen device earlier, going back to a smaller display doesn't really work. In this respect, the Le 1s scores with its big but not too big display, and its helped by minimal bezels. Resolution-wise, its a no contest with the Full HD In-Cell display on the Le 1s ruling the roost with its fantastic color reproduction, great viewing angles and almost-zero bezels.
On connectivity, both the Le 1s and the iPhone SE are at par with each other on Wi-Fi and Network compatibilities, but the Le 1s scores with its dual-SIM capability.
When it comes to performance, I believe that specs are just one part of the game. Real-world performance is key. And in this area, despite having lesser amount of RAM than the Le 1s, the iPhone SE performs equally well due to better memory management in iOS versus Android. Its a straight tie!
Camera is another key feature where specs are just one part of the game with actual photo clarity being the key identifier. The iPhone SE uses the much-lauded camera module from the iPhone 6S, so its a given that photos will come out well. The Le 1s on the other hand had a few initial hiccups with photo clarity but they've since been resolved by OTA updates, so overall - its a good camera experience on both smartphones. The Le 1s scores in lowlight clarity and front-camera! Apple, for reasons that defy logic, went with a 1.2MP sensor on the front-camera. Now megapixels might not be everything, but with a 5MP sensor, the Le 1s handily beats the iPhone SE on selfies. Another reason is the smaller aperture size on Le 1s cameras – both front and rear (f2.0) compared to the iPhone SE which has f2.4 on the front camera and f2.2 on the rear camera – in photography parlance, smaller is referred to as “wider”. A wider aperture lets in more light which gives better photos in low-light and indoor situations, and gives you that beautiful blurred “out of focus” effect on wide shots.
With respect to sensors, the Le 1s has an infrared sensor to control home appliances that the iPhone doesn't. Everything else on this front is a tie.
Finally, the "essential spec" in today's world, battery! The Le 1s has almost double the battery capacity of the iPhone SE, with fast-charge built-in! While iOS has better power management than Android, the huge difference in capacity should result in longer standby times with the Le 1s!
Regardless of all technical specifications and performance comparisons, there will still be people convinced that an Apple product is the next best thing since sliced bread! So, to those people, here is a final nail in the coffin. Both the Le 1s and iPhone SE are good phones that do almost everything you can expect them to. Most importantly for a budget-conscious Indian, the Le 1s costs INR 10,999 while the iPhone SE starts at a whopping INR 39,000! That’s three times more expensive than the Le 1s!!! Case closed.

Help me purchase my new lap top

I have nothing against large PC companies, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Sony, etc. That said, it seems very difficult to get close to what I'm looking for from these main suppliers. I live in the US but discovered in my research, small PC builders, they seem to cater to gamers, hi end business machines, but some will work with someone like me. Some were even in the UK and seemed to be well thought of and some even seemed competitive in price, even with shipping. A question is, is it silly for me to consider looking at these small builders, I might be incorrect in thinking that these smaller shops might take quality/service/support as more important, then say a multinational corp. I'm open to any and all suggestions, directions, opinions. Anybody who has weighed through this long winded request and wants to comment, hey, feel free, I'll be happy to hear any thing you all have to say.

If You Think That The InFocus M330 Lacks The App Drawer Then You're Wrong
Yes, what you read in the title is 100% correct, neither you and nor I have gone mad. And yes, the phone has an app drawer, what you gotta do is follow these steps: 1) Go to your home screen. Note: I posted this because I read that the M330 lacks of the app drawer in a review posted by the NDTV Gadgets staff in their app and some other reviews from other sites also stated the same thing. PS: No offence but I'd like to recommend the NDTV Gadgets staff to explore stuff a bit before posting a review
2) Press the menu button or those line bars or whatever LOL.
3) Go into preferences.
4) Scroll down, you'll see an option "One Layer" or something similar (I don't remember stuff because I returned the phone and have ordered it again as it had some problem), just click it and then select "Two Layer" from it.
5) Bang! You now have the app drawer, I explored this in my first power up of the device, I'm just confused that why other people can't
