India's unorganised workforce — construction workers, domestic help, street vendors, gig workers, and more — didn't have a single national record until eShram. Here's who's eligible, what registering actually gets you, and how to do it in about ten minutes.
404 and 500 you already know. But 401 vs 403, 301 vs 302, and 429 trip up developers constantly — and getting them wrong quietly breaks debugging, SEO, and API integrations. Here's what each family actually means and when to use which.

PMJDY accounts need no minimum balance and come with a free RuPay card and accident cover — genuinely useful once you understand what the overdraft facility and DBT link actually require to activate.
Mudra loans give small businesses up to ₹10 lakh in credit with no collateral — but which of the three categories you apply under, and how you present your business plan, decides whether a bank actually says yes.

A publisher posting a SHA-256 checksum next to a download link is telling you exactly how to check the file wasn't corrupted or tampered with — here's how to actually use it.
"25% off, plus an extra 10%" sounds like 35% off. It's actually about 32.5% — and the gap gets bigger the larger the discounts get.
