A developer built RupayaTools, a free website of online tools designed for users in India. The site offers no-account, no-download utilities such as CGPA, SGPA, and percentage calculators aligned with CBSE and university grading. It also includes salary, EMI, and income-tax calculators, along with age calculators and unit converters. All tools run in the browser, so user data stays on the device, and the creator says the site is free with no paywall.

Stock Scorer Shows Negative Predictive Power in A-Share Backtest

A developer built a three-pillar scoring model for Chinese A-shares, combining technical, volume/price, and valuation signals to rank stocks and select the top 50. When audited against 70 rebalance dates and 587 stocks, the composite score showed a significantly negative rank information coefficient, meaning higher scores tended to precede lower returns. Two of the three pillars had negative IC values, and the only positive one came from the component labeled fundamental, which the author suspects is mislabeled. Decile analysis reinforced the finding, as the highest-scoring stocks underperformed the lowest-scoring ones over the five-day horizon. The author used the same shipped code in the audit rather than a rewritten version, and noted that the results are not perfectly monotonic and occurred during a falling market window.

Maruti Suzuki's quarterly margin figures differ by measure, not by error

Maruti Suzuki's July–September 2026 results drew different margin figures from different outlets, including 5.9%, 5.5%, and 8.9%. The variation comes from measuring profit at different levels: EBITDA counts only running costs, EBIT also deducts depreciation, and pre-tax margin further adjusts for interest and other income. Maruti's large cash holdings lift its other income, which is why its pre-tax margin sits above its EBIT margin. The author notes that Indian filings are not uniformly labelled, so the platform standardised on pre-tax profit divided by sales for all Indian stocks. The piece argues that data should always be shown alongside the name of the measure used.

RechnerGenie Launches Free, Privacy-First Calculator Suite Running Entirely in the Browser

RechnerGenie.de is a new free calculator platform designed to process all computations locally in the user's browser rather than on remote servers. The site's developers say this approach delivers instant feedback, keeps sensitive financial and academic inputs private, and avoids cookie consent popups by skipping third-party trackers. Its algebra tool offers a formula editor with live KaTeX rendering and a photo scanner that uses client-side OCR to read formulas from images. Additional modules cover Austrian and German net salary calculations, proportions, unit conversions, percentages, and working-hour tracking.

Timezone bug in orders test traced by narrating debugging aloud and transcribing the recording

A developer's Node service test checking orders created today passed in CI but failed for anyone running it after about 4 p.m. Pacific. Unable to locate the cause after forty minutes, they recorded themselves thinking aloud, using spoken marker words like hypothesis, ruled out, note and fix. Transcribing the recording in the browser captured the moment they realized the day boundary was computed in UTC while the query used local time, since 4 p.m. Pacific equals midnight UTC. The transcript needed manual correction of code identifiers, which took about three minutes. The author then used a short Python script to extract marker-tagged sentences into a draft bug report.
