The H is very misleading and jarring. I like the option of having a व with a nukta = व़ since there is precedent of Devanagari doing that when new sounds had to be written down. Unicode also supports it natively and व़िक्टोरिया is much easier on the eye than व्हिक्टोरिया.

One of my previous employers used an ancient DB (AS400 + DB2) whose only official SDK was a JAR file. If it wasn't for JRuby + Sinatra, we would have no other option than to use a Java based framework. JRuby + Java libraries + easy-to-deploy JAR/WAR executables = chef's kiss.

Add NixOS or Nix package manager. People convinced of the Nix style are a certain type, I have noticed.

Whatever eventually happens to the Indian team, there's only one player at the Olympiad looking like a world champion.

1️⃣ Passengers trying to avoid the sun shining through a bus stop clearly designed without giving thought for sunlight or rain #WardenRd 2️⃣ A bus stop in Singapore providing shade & also allowing the free flow of pedestrians through it (could still be better)
