😂😂😂 80,000 blondes meet in a football stadium for a "Blondes Are Not Stupid" Convention. The leader says, "We are all here today to prove to the world that blondes are not stupid. Can I have a volunteer?" A blonde gingerly works her way through the crowd and steps up to the stage. The leader asks her, "What is 15 plus 15?" After 15 or 20 seconds she says, "Eighteen!" Obviously everyone is a little disappointed. Then 80,000 blondes start cheering, "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!" The leader says, "Well since we've gone to the trouble of getting 80,000 of you in one place and we have the world- wide press and global broadcast media here, gee, uh, I guess we can give her another chance." So he asks, "What is 5 plus 5?" After nearly 30 seconds she eventually says, "Ninety?" The leader is quite perplexed, looks down and just lets out a dejected sigh -- everyone is disheartened - the blonde starts crying and the 80,000 girls begin to yell and wave their hands shouting, "GIVE HER ANOTHER CHANCE! GIVE HER ANOTHER CHANCE!" The leader, unsure whether or not he is doing more harm than damage, eventually says, "Ok! Ok! Just one more chance -- What is 2 plus 2?" The girl closes her eyes, and after a whole minute eventually says, "Four?" Throughout the stadium pandemonium breaks out as all 80,000 girls jump to their feet, wave their arms, stomp their feet and scream... "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!"

Robin Uthappa played this overrated shot when Kohli wasn't even in India team that too against prime Brett Lee. Could've been the shot of the century only if Robin had a PR like Kohli 🫡❤️

IAF wants 100+ HAL HLFT-42 supersonic trainers. This is bigger than it sounds. Most countries buy trainers from abroad. South Korea sells the T-50 globally. Italy has the M-346. India has been importing trainers for decades. HLFT-42 isn't just a trainer. It's designed for manned-unmanned teaming — meaning it can control drone swarms in combat. That's a capability only the US and China are seriously building right now. If HAL delivers this on time (big if, I know), India becomes one of maybe 4 countries that can build a supersonic combat trainer domestically. And the export market for affordable supersonic trainers is wide open. Every country modernizing their air force needs one. HAL's order book is already at ₹1.2 lakh crore. This could add another ₹30,000-40,000 crore if exports click. I think people are sleeping on HAL's transformation. This isn't the HAL of 10 years ago.

@ShegunTweets There was a reason why Indians were comfortable with zero and even negative numbers. x.com/Fintech03/stat…
Parimal@Fintech03

In modern schools, students often struggle with (-1) X (-1) = 1 cos they try to visualize "negative one groups of negative one," which is a mental knot. The West spent centuries calling negative numbers absurd/the Devil's work, an Indian genius named Brahmagupta had already solved the logic in 628 CE (I have already written about this in my other post). He saw math not as just numbers but as Karma. In the 1600s, even west giants like Descartes were terrified of negative roots. They could not visualize a negative apple. But in ancient India, math was built for trade. Brahmagupta used 2 powerful terms: Dhana (Fortune/Asset), Rina (Debt/Negative). Most teachers try to explain multiplication as repeated addition. But how do you add a negative group of a negative? It is a mental dead end. Brahmagupta used Action-State Duality. Imagine our bank balance: The state: A negative number (-) is a Debt, a hole in our pocket. The Operator: Multiplying by a negative (-) is the Action of reversing/canceling. Now, do the math: If we cancel (-) a debt (-)... what are we left with? Exactly, a fortune(+). By "negating a negation," we create a presence. Brahmagupta coded this as: "Rinayoh rina-ghane dhanam"(The product of two debts is a fortune). He realized that the removal of a lack is mathematically identical to gaining an asset. This looks like a abstract philosophy but it was Vector Logic. Brahmagupta treated Zero (Shunya) as a bridge. Multiplying by a positive preserves our direction. Multiplying by a negative is a 180 degrees rotation. Rotate a "Debt" by 180 degrees, & we land squarely back in "Wealth." While Europe was still debating if negative numbers were real, Indian merchants were using this logic to calculate complex interest on loans. Brahmagupta’s work eventually traveled to Baghdad, then to Europe, changing the world forever. Next time you solve for x, remember: you are using 1400 yr old Indian banking logic.

😂🤌 Russia was comfortable offering Transfer of Technology (ToT) for critical defence systems largely because it knew the risks were limited. There was a built-in confidence that Indian defence PSUs, as structured historically, would struggle to fully absorb, replicate, or reverse-engineer the technology. That confidence didn’t emerge in a vacuum. For decades, many of these organisations were run with a heavy bureaucratic overlay - where administrative control often outweighed technical leadership. Add to that alleged affirmative systems, weak accountability, and policy distortions, and you get institutions that prioritised process over outcomes. The result? A kind of institutional inertia. Babugiri + systemic inefficiency = a recipe for stagnant capability growth. Look at the outcomes: We are still importing conventional submarines from Germany with ToT - despite having acquired German submarine technology over three decades ago, and French submarine technology more recently. Despite decades of licensed production of both Russian and Western jet engines, we are still years (if not decades) away from developing a reliable indigenous jet engine for operational use. The pattern is hard to ignore: Tech transfer without deep absorption doesn’t translate into strategic capability.
idrw@idrwalerts

A senior official once noted that Russia’s eagerness to offer Transfer of Technology (ToT) to Indian Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) stems from a strategic calculation regarding reverse engineering. According to this view, Moscow provides these transfers with the confidence that Indian entities struggle to effectively reverse-engineer complex Russian systems or develop indigenous derivatives from them. Essentially, the Indian PSU ecosystem is "safe" partner that will remain within the licensed framework.

@idrwalerts This 'fact' completely disregards existance and performance of GTRE at a budget that no one else managed. The reason for no reverse engineering is the absolute absence of projects where they can be used. Heck, IAF doesn't even design anything around Kaveri to make it worthwhile.

“HAL has frequently attributed delays to shifting requirements and changing goalposts during the development phases of both the HTT-40 and the Sitara IJT. However, the inability to deliver a modern trainer aircraft at the lowest tier of the military aviation value chain reflects poorly on the broader ecosystem.” But did the IAF engage in shifting requirements and changing goalposts or not?

People often think the Raman Effect was a Eureka moment in a single afternoon. In reality, it was a grueling endurance test. Kariamanikkam Srinivasa Krishnan (1898-1961) was the person who sat in the darkroom of the IACS (Kolkata) for months. He painstakingly purified & tested 65 different dust-free liquids to see if they all showed the same feeble fluorescence (the early name for the Raman Effect). Krishnan kept a detailed research diary. Entries from early 1928 show that he was the one who 1st clearly observed that the new radiation was polarized, a key technical proof that it was not just ordinary fluorescence. Raman himself later wrote that if the Nobel had been awarded only for the work of 1928, Krishnan would have justly shared the prize. Later in his career, Krishnan moved to Crystal Magnetism. He wanted to measure the magnetic anisotropy (how a crystal's magnetic properties change based on its orientation) of tiny organic crystals. In the 1930s, there was no sophisticated equipment for this. He developed the Critical Torque Method. Using simple materials, famously described by colleagues as sealing wax & string, he suspended crystals from fine quartz fibers & measured their rotation in a magnetic field. This method was so precise that it allowed him to calculate the orientation of molecules inside a crystal before X-ray crystallography became common. It remains a foundational technique in magnetochemistry today. Yrs before Claude Shannon (the father of Information Theory) published his famous Sampling Theorem in 1948, K.S. Krishnan had already derived a similar mathematical concept in the context of physics. In elite scientific circles, Krishnan is regarded as 1 of the few Complete Physicists, someone who was equally brilliant at complex mathematical theory & dirty-hands experimental work. When the NPL was being built in Delhi, the architects planned to cut down several old trees to make way for the massive building. Krishnan refused. He personally intervened to redraw the architectural plans so that the trees could be saved. He believed that symmetry is achieved by harmonious addition, not by destruction. To this day, the NPL campus is 1 of the greenest scientific spots in Delhi because of his stubborn love for nature. In 1958, when India established the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize (the Indian Nobel), K.S. Krishnan was the very 1st recipient. He was also elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 1940, yet he remained so modest that he preferred people just call him KSK.
