If only I could marry someone from the writers’ room of Shrinking, Modern Family or Ted Lasso?

Twitter’s algo is top notch. I was obsessing over sunset clicks on Chao Phraya river in Bangkok few days ago (will share) and I have been trying to learn French for a couple of months now.
Voila! Algo finds me a tweet in French about sunset in Bangkok over the river. 😂

@Konkanist Yes they coexisted as two variants of Devanagari. I was referring to why Bombay style became defacto after the emergence of printing press.
English
@OnlyNakedTruth Both the Bombay style and the Calcutta style co-existed. We see handwritten manuscripts that use both styles in the same page sometimes. None of the is particularly more original than the other.
English
The Bombay vs Calcutta style of Devanagari is not just limited to numerals. The letters are different too. Calcutta style was the original one. Bombay style emerged as mixed Modi + Devanagari script that would allow uniform typeface to print both Hindi and Marathi books.

Different ways of writing numbers in different styles of the #Devanagari script.

@ManeeManjunath @SpfAdmin @suryakane @PMOIndia @PPFNewDelhi @LtGenHooda @NEquaker @VGK_India @shivsahai To be honest , we are not there yet. Our lithography capabilities are in nascent stage. So as much as I want India to benefit from it- this is not the right place for them. Taiwan, Korea and China are better. Or they can try out Israel and US

@SpfAdmin @suryakane @OnlyNakedTruth @PMOIndia @PPFNewDelhi @LtGenHooda @NEquaker @VGK_India @shivsahai Same should be said for the automotive industry too. Considering the upheaval that the German automotive industry is going through, lots of talented Indians looking to move back. Eg. Yours truly but the industry has done diddly squat about it.

Cambodians paid a huge indirect price for the Vietnam war. US bombed the rural areas of Cambodia indiscriminately - eventually leading to a CIA sponsored coup to remove the popular King. He then asked people to support anti US communist Khmer Rouge hoping to get power back .

@OnlyNakedTruth dont know which mode of transport you used but the open four wheelers (their auto) driving us thru the pre dawn breezy forest is one of my favourite memories. Also we managed to climb to the top of the central tower early morning right after the sunrise..unforgettable angkor wat!
English
we were planning to visit Italy - thanks to Khameini and Trump that plan got nixed. We instead ended up going east to Angkor Wat.
I always expected it to be amazing, but it still managed to overwhelm me beyond my expectations!
The sunrise (esp around equinox) is stunning and worth the hype and pain of getting up early there to claim a spot at 5 am.

My friend : This barber in the men’s saloon has just one job, Shaving heads,
Me : what ?
My friend : His job must be ‘Mundane’.
Me : in English or Kannada ?

@junoesque The forecast was cloudy and I had resigned to my fate. But thankfully last luck smiled and clouds cleared up before the sunrise
English
@OnlyNakedTruth Wonderful. Went in 2012 but couldn't get this experience due to clouds

@TheMinioness We could not go there. But I have heard a lot about it

@OnlyNakedTruth Angkor Wat is amazing and we remember it with awe even years later.
Highly recommend Kbal Spean nearby if you have time. Was a trek uphill, not sure if there's a better route now:

Sahasralinga: A river with a thousand lingas etched on the riverbed stones, and Hindu Gods carved on boulders – all dating back nearly a 1000 years. This is Kbal Spean, #Cambodia, a short drive from Siem Reap, home to the magnificent Angkor Wat. #MahaShivaratri #HarHarMahadev
