@airvistara’s 24 hours somehow stretches to 3 days. Rescheduled a ticket on 24th. Ticket is still not released even though fully paid. Every call is either put on hold (have been on hold for 20 min once) or told it will be sent in 24 hours.

This is an interesting project. Create rich Python apps for the browser using HTML & @pyscript_dev Python is the 2nd best language for every development. May be it will become for front end apps too.

Documentary about journalist @ravishndtv wins an award at Toronto international film festival. You would assume NDTV will have this on its front page. But no. Looks like they haven’t even reported it.

On issues like sports and other areas where there is not much political controversy, Wikipedia is great. But simple factual statements that don’t fit left-wing narratives to be deleted, often within a day, sometimes within minutes.
