Our evolutionary sibling, with whom we share more DNA than either of us do with gorillas or orangutans.





If RCB fails to defend their title, it won’t be because of their batting. Right now, that lineup looks complete: there is depth, variety, experience, firepower and most importantly a very strong sense of self-belief.








Hit me with the craziest math facts you know.






I just realized there is no exact equivalent word for "empathy" in Hindi. Or any Indian language. Explains a lot, doesn't it. The closest one is the Sanskrit "samvedana" which is very close to empathy but not quite and is not broadly used. This concept of feeling/sharing/understanding someone else's pain, trauma and suffering is very alien to our culture. Because our culture is basically the caste system. And caste system actually actively *disincentivizes* empathy. We have words for kindness, compassion, love, charity, generosity, but not for empathy. Frankly, many older cultures don't understand and define empathy. Not just ours. It's an highly evolved concept, an high evolved word. And we we are a highly unevolved, backward culture.
