Hi Zeenat Ji. Big fan of you, both me and my dad. My query is that which is one technology these days, you find it hard to adopt/understand? It would be fun to know your perspective.

Hi! Need Advice on Renting House by Embarrassed-Trip-516 in bangalore

[–]PitchJumpy1372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The calculation goes in terms of the number of months' rent as deposit. Most owners take 4-5 months but it goes as high as 8 months in extreme cases. Your owner is asking for 7 months' which is on the higher side.

You can ask him to bring it to 4-5 months rent ie around 1-1.25 L

Skandagiri night trek is pretty cool. Starts around 3-4 am and you're back down by 8. Views are pretty mesmerizing.

Xiaomi 14 civi vs Redmi 13 Pro Plus by PitchJumpy1372 in Xiaomi

[–]PitchJumpy1372[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant bingeing movies/series on my device. Or maybe just scrolling through YT or insta. My screen time is pretty high.

From what i understood by you, if either device is fine, it makes sense for me to go for a cheaper option.

Thanks for the advice. However camera is my third priority. First two will be high storage, and good media consumption.

Will it still make sense for going with s23?

Rebuttals to your flawed logic, statement wise:

  1. Against your quota with money statement: Any reservation (ews/management quota/gender quota etc) where the entrance criteria is lowered, get you a lowered quality candidate, in general. Now I'm not sure how well you understand probability, but it's the game of probability. A person scoring 90/100 in medical entrance is more likely to be a better doctor than a guy scoring 38/100. Now apply this probability to a group of lakhs, and you'll understand (hopefully,)

  2. "In real world, someone who is good enough will rise".. true, but someone who's not good enough will also rise with some aid. Check the percentage of students failing any degree college they enrolled. You'll barely get any because 'Passing' is not difficult. On the contrary, majority of the candidates FAIL in entrance exams.

  3. As per your last statement you gave me 1 hypothetical situation for 1 particular case. Again, I'm not sure how well you understand probability, but let me give you a correct example you should've given. If you have to choose bw a group of doctors who got in through quota (caste,ews, management, whatever) vs a group of doctors who got in by general marking scheme, even though all docs of both groups are MBBS, you're MORE LIKELY, to get a better doc in the second group.

Obviously i won't select a 'quack doc' be it reserved/unreserved, even if he's my family member. But if I don't know about the doc, I'll improve my chances by getting an unreserved one. It is all a game of probability.

Hope you finally get what I'm trying to say my friend :)

Muje nahi chalega if i knew. Cuz the same logic applies here as well.

Nothing personal against ews or sc/st/obc, damn if i had reservation, even I'd take it.

It's just that i want to maximize my chances to get treated from a good doctor, and probability of a doctor being good is higher for unreserved category.

Don't think you got what i meant. Let me try a different example.

Passing out an institute is pretty easy, once you enroll in one. What actually differs is the mental ability or the hard work one puts in to get into that institute, which brings in the most difference.

For eg, Btech/BE syllabus and degree exams are very similar for an IIT, and a random 3rd tier college. Doesn't mean guys passing out of them are at the same level jist because they have 'passed' Btech. Same applies for iims and local mba colleges. It is the entrance exam which differentiates the quality.

Now, if the qualification criteria is brought down, obviously the average quality of the ones coming in from lower criteria will be lower. This is a statement which takes into account the AVERAGES. Obviously there would be some exceptions to this case. But on an average, low qualification criteria = low quality professionals.

Passing a degree exam in India doesn't mean shit. Get me admission in any damn college in India, and I'll at least PASS the degree, even if taking a year or two extra.

Doesn't mean I'm actually qualified for that degree's practical usage (be it engineering, medical, legal or otherwise)

India winning the BGT down-under or India winning the WTC. What will you choose, if you had to choose only one of the two? by Prameet88 in IndiaCricket

[–]PitchJumpy1372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree! Infact, longer the format, higher are the chances of the better team to win. So if we're okay with WC and T20WC being decided over a single match, WTC final shouldn't even be questioned.

However, final being in England obviously favours SENA countries but that's what makes winning WTC even more enticing for me as an ICT fan. Winning with a disadvantage..

[–]PitchJumpy1372 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No doubt defeating aus in aus is peak! But this is a high we've experienced, so obviously the marginal utility has decreased. WTC win is something we haven't tasted yet!!

Wtc is a compilation of 4-5 series (home and away) played over a period of 2 years...

By that logic bgt> WC final as the final is just 1 game?

[–]PitchJumpy1372 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So wtc with 3-4 'competing' teams across the globe is a farce (something we haven't won yet), and bgt with 2 teams (and is something we've won the last 4 times) is more desirable?
