My New Years resolution is to eat well. 3 square meals is a stretch for me. So instead, I'll have at least two proper meals a day. And tweet one photo a day.

@NGKabra Oh? After your poll I felt bad for Flipkart and tried to buy things over there. Payment page failed twice. I thought at this rate Flipkart is going to die in 2 years.
But you tell me this is a bubble.
English
[Poll Results]: The fact that Flipkart is so low (below the lizardman constant even) is not surprising (based on what I see around me) but is surprising (because Flipkart revenues are higher than Amazon!)
We live in a bubble

[Poll]: Do you use Amazon regularly for online shopping? Or Flipkart? (Regular means at least 6 deliveries in the last 6 months)

Is Twitter slow today or are my WiFi AND mobile data slow at the same time?
In India, it’s easy to blame WiFi / telecom companies. Sometimes I unconsciously blame my phone also. But I feel like it just maybe could be Twitter also, just for today.
English
@NGKabra Amazon - only because of cleaner interface and familiarity from past life.

#Nashik Good that public transport is clean and accessible. It’s a compliment that people choose to take public transport (was not the case 15 years ago).

Feeling like I am single handedly boosting the economy of Indian consumer manufacturing and e-commerce sectors.

Not able to keep PrtSc bottom linked to my beloved Lightshot app. Windows’ default Snip & Sketch keeps taking over.
What to do?

@nisht88 Hritik and Aishwariya for Dhoom 2. But their looks got old really quickly.

#Dhoom2 : What was good about the film?
Not saying this to condescend Indian cinema, but really - the songs were worse than Dhoom, the racing bike novelty had worn off. the acting was def worse, plot ended in a let down.
What made it a blockbuster?

Interesting thread.
Assuming the stats/graphs mentioned are true, I wonder what would cause this.

The Chinese Communist Revolution consolidated its power by taking land from the elite. In the following generation, the previous elite once again reclaimed their social advantage. This is not an isolated phenomenon: A Thread on the persistence of status 🧵

Voting early in the morning is good. You run into old acquaintances who are also trying to avoid the rush hour.

Or were we applauding the film cast on successfully portraying a time from 200 years ago when it was normal to only think about marrying, and marrying rich.

#PrideandPrejudice:
The 2005 film, I don't know why it was popular. I don't know how to rate it.
Why are we glorifying gold-diggers in the 21st century, when most women have the opportunity to look for more than just inheritance money in a partner?

Uff what has happened to Twitter web? I can barely see one tweet on my entire screen. The rest of the space is filled with uselessness. And everything looks big.
Twitter has become Facebook.

@bhumilharia Sure, civilian maybe. Fukushima also could have featured.
English
@intelshwets I think if they included wars, that itself would fill much of the list. This seems to be a list of ecological (civilian?) disasters

Hiroshima and Nagasaki don’t feature in man-made disasters?
Also, Deepwater deserves #1, over Chernobyl and Bhopal? I need some sense check.
Time Capsule Tales@timecaptales
8 of history's biggest man-made disasters: 1. Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill: In 2010, a surge of methane gas traveled through the Deepwater Horizon’s drill pipe. A blowout preventer was in place meant to stop this type of accident should it occur but the preventer failed, allowing the gas to reach the platform, where it exploded and led to the rig catching fire before it sank. Eleven workers were killed at the time. The largest marine oil spill in history, 134 million gallons of oil were released off the coast of Louisiana before being contained almost three months later. The spill killed marine wildlife, damaged ecosystems, destroyed Gulf Coast jobs dependent on tourism and induced negative health effects on residents. Further complicating matter, the oil dispersant used in the cleanup also caused damage by permeating the food chain. 14 years later, the effects of this blunder are still being seen, particularly in wildlife.

@bhumilharia Not screenshots but every action is recorded and can be traced to person and time.

This feature is called “Audit trail” in the pharma industry. It exists and is quite useful tbh, for auditors whose job it is to not trust the manufacturers.
Only now, extended to all Microsoft PCs. For the untrusting parents and partners.
And data for companies to train AI on.

Satya Nadella says Windows PCs will have a photographic memory feature called Recall that will remember and understand everything you do on your computer by taking constant screenshots

Pollution doesn't just affect your lungs, it also affects your brain: it reduces your productivity, makes your decisions worse, it increases chances of you getting Alzheimer's, and it even affects your unborn baby.
Here's a big data/research dump on the effects of pollution.
