What makes you unique?

I hope to program myself one day and distribute multiple copies across the globe, so I can share my uniqueness with everyone.

I like paradoxes.

How I got a 21% return on investment by investing in the NSE equity market without any experience

The coronavirus has affected all of our lives adversely in some way or another, unless you've been living under a rock of course. In which case I'd advise you to go back and stay there. Attain nirvana or something. Anyways, one thing the virus has taught a lot of people is the need for financial awareness. We've seen a wave of amateur retail investors in the equities market booking nice profits. I was lucky enough to be one of these people. I remember the first day I opened my demat account and threw all my life savings into the most random list of companies.

But this post isn't a rant about how several 'certified' practitioners of agile methods apply the opposite of the patterns they were supposed to have learnt. Without further ado, let's begin. Axios  is a popular promise based HTTP client.

Goodbye Tofu(⏔)? - Google's Noto Project

Image
When text is rendered by a computer, characters in the text can't be displayed at times, because no font that supports them is available to the computer. When this occurs, small boxes are shown to represent the characters. In slang those small boxes have sometimes been called "tofu"(⏔). Noto as in "No Tofu", aims to remove tofu from the Web. Google recently released its open source Noto font which aims to create a united platform for several languages used around the world, rare or common. As of 8/10/2016 there are 114 Noto fonts, of which 95 are sans-serif style, 13 are serif style, and six fonts are not classified as serif or sans-serif. The Noto Color Emoji font only works under Android and Linux, and cannot be installed under Mac OS or Microsoft Windows. All these fonts are available for download in the url below- https://www.google.com/get/noto/ They can be downloaded in batch or individually .
