UPI payment has enabled tracking actual sales data and helped with tax collection. This is an intangible benefit which is likely to go away with the introduction of the fee.

If the judge is allowed to outsource their job, can they outsource to anyone? What about to a donor who contributed to the campaign? what about to someone who has a vested interest in the outcome of the judgement?

If outsourcing is permitted, then why have judges in the first place? why not just have an AI and let it do all the work and save money for the govt?

If a judge can outsource judgement, can they outsource to anyone? What about to a campaign donor? what about to a victim or the accused?

The best tools/businesses are coming from domain experts who vibecode, not anyone who can vibecode — because the ones who are not from that domain have not really experienced the painpoints to know what the industry needs, even when they work with a dev team requirements get lost in translation.

The catch: domain experts don't know what they don't know about shipping. The fix — vibecoders build it, dev team hardens it for production.

I believe the statement "I don't use LLM for anything" should not be disqualifying. Many companies frown upon use of AI because of fear of hallucination, so not everyone is open about it in all settings.

Can this be used for non coding jobs too?
