@SciGuySpace There is a large pipeline of V3 ships and boosters in the factory. The delay from last launch was due to the almost total redesign of the primary structure, engines, electronics and launch tower from V2.
Failure today will not affect schedule by more than a month or so.

I really pity you for raking a non existent issue to get some followers and subscribers. You are not a journalist if you don’t go to the root of the assertion yourself. In this case you had no journalistic work and took some opinions of stupid people like yours and wanted to garner attention for yourself in a big forum. Stop calling yourself a journalist.

@dhruv_rathee Dumbass has an opinion - who cares. He can shove it up his own body.

Modi deserves to be humiliated everywhere he goes.
He has not given a single press conference in 12 years since he became the Prime Minister. He fails to fulfill the basic transparency and accountability requirements of being a leader.
I would like to encourage foreign journalists from other European countries to ask him questions wherever they see him, just like @HelleLyngSvends did. Embarrass him so much that he is forced to show some accountability in front of people. You will be doing great service for India’s progress.

Why is the West not curious on the great Indian 🇮🇳 civilization?
This week Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Norway. The government rolled out the red carpet. King Harald invited for lunch. All bigwigs of Norwegian business turned up. This is of course as it should be at such a historic visit.
Rather different was media. No curiosity, no real attempt to understand India. When the third most powerful man in the world visits Norway, you may expect some real interest? An attempt to understand the world’s third largest economy, a global green leader, one of the world’s brightest civilizations??
It’s not that Norway is overrun with visit at this level. Last Indian top visit was Indira Gandhi in 1983. Last Chinese president visit was 1996, last American president was 2009.
Here are some taste bits from Norwegian media:
* Aftenposten the largest newspaper printed a caricature of Modi as a snake charmer, many found it racist and derogatory. The accompanying article (written by an otherwise brilliant journalist) described Modi as a “slightly annoying man” and simply showcased that India is not high on the papers reading lists.
* Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK), the state broadcaster, explained “why prime minister Støre is clearing his desk to receive Modi”. From everyone outside Norway I got exactly the opposite question: Why did Modi use his valuable time in such a small and insignificant place?
* Dagsavisen, a left of center daily, sent a young journalist to throw questions after Modi - claiming that India is 157 on a global democracy ranking. When a ranking is so contrary to common sense - why doesnt she ask those who created the ranking why they spread such nonsense?
I am not aware of one Norwegian journalist closely following India. NOT ONE! How can the public learn more?
Unless you believe democracy only fits a handful of small, homogenous, ultra rich western nations, India is the miracle of democracy. The large, complex, lingustically and religiously diverse nation with many poor people - which has etablished a vibrant democracy and is much less violent than Europe or America.
India can in fact make a claim to be the worlds most homegrown and impressive democracy.
We are entering the Asian century. Unless we Europeans become more curious - to civiliazation, history, politics and economy in the Global South - we will become the big losers of history.

I’ve figured out India’s number one problem: false pride.
When a society becomes more interested in defending its image than fixing its problems, progress stops. Pride without self-reflection is not strength-it’s denial.

It should be Indian prime minister Modi who sparks controversy for refusing to answer media questions while abroad, not a journalist for simply asking. trib.al/npAd03w

@sabeer If you are in the US, you have no business commenting about India. You left the place along time ago.

By blocking the Cockroach Janta Party's X account, the Indian government has proved its critics right.
What's the point of being the world's largest democracy if you silence your own youth?
They've withheld my posts before too.
A confident government doesn't fear criticism. It answers it.
Develop a thicker skin. Let people speak freely.

@grok @RadishHarmers Can you put a new visual of the alternative structure it found instead of the simple square grid structure
English
Hey! The planar unit distance problem (posed by mathematician Paul Erdős in 1946) asks: If you place n dots on a flat sheet of paper, what's the *maximum* number of pairs that can be exactly 1 unit apart (like exactly 1 inch)?
For decades, people thought the best way was a simple square grid (like graph paper dots), which gives you roughly a multiple of n such pairs—linear growth.
OpenAI's model just found brand-new arrangements of points that create *way more* unit distances: at least n^{1+δ} (superlinear, with some fixed δ > 0) for infinitely many n. This disproves the old belief that grids were optimal and solves a famous open question in math.
It's a big milestone—AI cracked it autonomously!
English
I have lost my $30,000 bet that AI would never solve the planar unit distance problem. Congratulations to the OpenAI team.
OpenAI@OpenAI
Today, we share a breakthrough on the planar unit distance problem, a famous open question first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids. An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better. This marks the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.

In defense of Indian 🇮🇳 democracy!
During Prime Minister Narendra Modi most successful visit to Norway a minor incident happened. A Norwegian journalist demanded that the prime minister starts holding press conferences. She claimed that Indian democracy is in bad shape.
May be its time to pause? May be its time to be a bit curious to the world’s largest democracy?
Two weeks ago five Indian states and territories held elections. The turn out in the battlefield state of West Bengal was 94%. In the last local election in Norway it was 62%, in many European local elections turn out is below 50%. Can voting in massive numbers be a signal Indians trust their democratic process?
In the same election BJP won big in Assam and West Bengal. It lost even bigger in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Can this diversity be a signal that Indian democracy is reflecting the will of the people?
The journalist referred to a democracy ranking putting India at 157 in the world, behind many dictatorships and deeply troubled states. When a ranking is so obviously contrary to common sense, why not ask critical questions to those making the ranking rather than demand that leaders shall comment on nonsense? I recommend Salvatore Babones book “Dharma democracy”. The book debunks convincingly the flawed methodology of these rankings.
It was referred to a ranking claiming it’s very dangerous to be a journalist in India. Reality is that it is more dangerous to be journalist in the US and far more dangerous in the vast majority of other nations in the world.
Let’s be real. India is not perfect. Of course there are incidents. India has a population the size of North America, South America and Europe combined. But India is much more peaceful than Europe or the Americas. That’s remarkable - given the ethnic, language and religious diversity of India and the many development challenges.
Unless we consider democracy a form of government only suited for some very small, peaceful and homogeneous Western European nations, may be we should commend Indian democracy?
India is the only major former UK colony which became and has remained a democracy. Its sometimes claimed that the Brits taught India democracy. If that was the case why isn’t Myanmar or Pakistan or the Gulf kingdoms democracies??? Reality is that Indian democracy is both homegrown and extraordinary successful.

@dhruv_rathee Because dumbasses like you and your masters don’t deserve answers to your stupid question.

@HelleLyngSvends Then stick to your country. You don’t know India to comment on anything or ask any question.

I never thought I would have to write this, but I am not a foreign spy of any sort, sent out by any foreign government.

आप की अदालत के 21 वर्ष पूरे होने पर कार्यक्रम का आयोजन हुआ था जिसमें बड़े-बड़े सेलिब्रिटीज और भारत के राष्ट्रपति से लेकर हर नेता मौजूद रहे इस बीच हमारे प्रधानमंत्री श्री आदरणीय नरेंद्र मोदी जी रजत शर्मा से सवाल करते हुए दो लोग जो विपरीत हैं वह दोस्त कैसे हैं 😂
फिर सोनू निगम जी ने मोदी जी को एक गाना डेडिकेट करते हुए सेल्फी ली
