@Object_Zero_@paulg By that logic, people should still be taking ships and trains. People want things now. look at quick commerce, from sameday to 10 minute delivery. Same argument were made but Speed wins, every time.

At Jar, one of our goals is to revolutionize lending for millions of Tier 2 and Tier 3 users who currently face challenges in accessing loans due to the lack of a credit history.
It happened to my friend last year. It was very traumatic for him. He and his wife have felt very unsafe in Bangalore since then, they are planning to move out.
I've never felt unsafe in Bangalore - I know my privilege of being a Kannada speaking male - but last Thursday night I felt how unsafe certain parts of the city are post 10pm.
I've seen those horrific videos of fake accidents in Sarjapur where hooligans have tried to blackmail people in the car.
On 8th November, my wife offered to drop off some other collegues (2 females, one male) considering it was hard to get a cab from Sarjapur. Their car was chased down by a bunch of men for a few km - she was smart enough to stop only on the main road and inform the cops as soon as possible.
The men demanded that they step out of the car - which she didn't - for alleged damage during the chase. A few tempo drivers hit her car from the backside and joined the man in the green shirt in trying to pressurise people who couldn't speak Kannada. None of the bystanders helped the three women and a guy in the car.
If it wouldn't have been for her wits of calling the cops and then calling us and 10 of her friends to immediately join her at her location, the incident could have taken a different turn.
This city deserves better than this, we need security and we need it now. Sarjapur has been a hotspot for these incidents and we need to figure out a solution to curb this menace.

Migrated some core functionality with high traffic@JarAppHQ to fastApi and the initial results are pretty impressive. Quite crazy how a framework could leverage the quirks of python to build a scalable async api server.
