Happiness is a Mukul Kesavan prose.

@Dimillian When a programming language has developed 225+ keywords, don’t bother. Its not practically digestible by a human being, and LLMs too should be aggressive in discarding what is achievable through existing means.

I have a real question. I used to be pretty deep in programming languages. Following every Swift release. Trying every new features. Making sure my projects were up to date with the latest syntax, etc. How do we transition this knowledge to our new world? Does it still matter?

@ddflj3310 Modern day (Flipboard’s) Flex then?

给各位独立开发者们推荐一下 DebugSwift 这个 GitHub 仓库，可以理解成给 iOS App 内置了一套「开发者控制台」，直接帮你在本机上看日志找问题。 它能在 App 里直接看 HTTP / WebSocket 请求、响应、状态码、格式化 JSON；还能实时查看 CPU、内存、FPS，排查卡顿和内存泄漏。 另外，崩溃日志、控制台日志、设备信息、APNS Token、UserDefaults、Keychain、SQLite、Realm、SwiftData、本地文件这些，也都能在 App 内查看，部分数据还能编辑或导出。 UI 调试也挺全：网格线、触摸点、动画减速、View 边框、3D 视图层级，甚至还有 SwiftUI 重渲染跟踪。 接入方式很简单：Swift Package / CocoaPods 引入后，在 AppDelegate 里调用 debugSwift.setup() 和 debugSwift.show()，调试环境会出现一个悬浮球，也支持摇一摇唤出。 github.com/DebugSwift/Deb…

Get Jaiswal early, before his partner has taken off. That is the only way to have a grip on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Every single time he has gone berserk in IPL, his ballistics have started before Jaiswal got out. Jaiswal's dismissal is what makes him conscious.

The general sloppiness in Apple’s UI since years now, its unrecognizable from the standards they had exemplified once

@ashwinravi99 Its really piss poor the way you sometimes speak with your Hindi channel’s YT co-host. Please be better than that. He will never acknowledge it, he is not in much of a position to do that. The onus lies with you

There is just one reason that I have my Willow subscription for this IPL - Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. There is no explaining this phenomenon. What he is doing is nothing less than what The Don himself was doing 100 years ago.

@bhogleharsha @cricbuzz @joybhattacharj The demographic diversity of IPL players has intrigued me too. LLMs have now made it easier to gather this data. Rajasthan has 10 IPL players Mumbai, Delhi Punjab have 15+ State of Maharashtra has 33, i.e. 19%! PS - I can share the sheet

Chinamma Chilakamma came up on shuffle. After years/decades. That song's music is an explosion of musical stimulation. Verse after verse.

The momentousness of 1983 WC win is unparalleled in Indian cricket, it wasn't obvious to me in 2011 but certainly is now.

In Hindi songs there is 60s and 70s, then there is a big patch of vacuum, and then there is everything else.

Many years into the future, there is an unnamed army. Its most important asset is an intellectual who can perform basic arithmetic with pen and pencil as everyone else needs a calculator. And he gets depressed thinking of that. I think about that story often now.

We used to get a bunch of comics and teens' magazines when I was a kid. One of them was Suman Saurabh. When I was around 8 there was this short story it published. The one page comic strip was basically this much -

@karachikhatmal @PCCIpod Pakistan/Mohsin Naqvi ~ SRK in Darr. LOL. I think Usman Tariq too

> He is either cheerful or angry, but never helpless, and that separates him from the likes of Tendulkar. Part of the reason why Kohli will never be tragic hero is his personality and competitiveness. A brilliantly articulated observation by Sidharth Monga on @ESPNcricinfo.

Sometimes all you need is a breakfast in a nice old fashioned diner, which has a one page dog eared plastic laminated menu, which is bustling with people even on a cold weekday morning, and where half the ambient noise is of metal turners clanging on warm pans.

It was played right after the 2022 WC debacle. Gill labored through powerplay, nudging and refusing to slog in spite of his struggle. To me, it was 'playing for average' and spoke volumes about his unsuitability as a modern T20 batter.

Disclosure - I could be biased. Half my mind about Gill's merit as a T20 batsman was made seeing him bat against SL in this 2023 match espncricinfo.com/series/sri-lan…

A thread on the merits of omission of Shubman Gill from India's T20I WC squad. @bhogleharsha and @joybhattacharj on Cricbuzz have endorsed it, while Sid Monga and @the_kk on Cricinfo have criticized it.
