Remember when Modi ji went to Tirumala and the priests chanted the achchidra Ashvamedha parayanam of the Taittiriya brahmana, reciting it in the ghanapatha style? Hindus still aren't enough in awe with that. wth is this ⬇️😭, a comparison would be a crime

Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction during a Pentagon sermon.

@avataram saar! vasavadatta, amrapali, ratnavali were courtesans from classical literature, no? someone may take this seriously and give their daughters these names 💀

@vvaayu @Sai_swaroopa Acharya, I’m sincerely not able to understand if you are trolling or you honestly carry this belief.
English
@Sai_swaroopa Also, like I said here , there’s no collective female (or male) pain, or happiness. If women suffer bcs of their families, I’m all support for them to move on and leave behind the parasites.

Dear women (and men), there’s no universal brother/sisterhood. Only brothers or sisters you’ll ever have are those you’re born with. Do not fall into this trap of being a part of some genitalia based club, 99.9% members of which you’ll never even see.

Hindu traditional ecosystem seems to have given in to some unacknowledged oath to proactively "other" the feminine.
Like the commitment is so strong that they are successfully alienating sympathetic voices too.
The blindspots they have need an academic study. Really.

For researchers, professors, scientists, or anyone working with GIS data in India --> this thread is for you.
I spent 4-5 years working with Indian geospatial data, and something was missing.
Here's what I built and why.

@useoneonly @jogandharayana isn't ashwamedham a part of yajur-veda?
English
@jogandharayana I'm pretty sure it's from the Ashvamedha verses, which are infamous for being vulgar
English
The English of the translation looks abominable.

The birth rate collapse is simple. We are guarded from death in nearly every meaningful way. The less of an effect death produces on those still living, the less we seek its antidote, which is new life. Death is shielded from us both in fact and appearance. Very few young people die. And when they do we are told to “go to therapy” rather than to “go forth and multiply.” Or when death is real the physical suffering is often eliminated with sedatives.
Public executions would fix the birth rate problem overnight. The more we experience shocking death the more we crave new life. This zombie-like way of life we have convinced ourselves is superior is ironically the one thing that is killing us.

I can control your balance
I made a device that sends DC current through my head to stimulate my vestibular nerve (called galvanic vestibular stimulation or GVS) and, in doing so, can make me feel completely destabilised. By changing the direction of the current, it can make me fall in that direction.
Hook that up to keyboard controls or a joystick, and suddenly you could have your own remote control human.
Naturally, my first thought was man I wanna play trackmania with this. What else should I do?
I do not have enough self-preservation, clearly lol

When I meet someone who is well read & has good grasp on many disciplines, almost every time, common denominator is early exposure to books/ideas. Lower mid class families suppress casual reading. The circle of mediocrity continues if you don't actively try to cultivate your mind

Packed international flight. Huge queue at border control. Somehow I’m the only one out of the entire flight that knows about MPC. They open up a whole new lane for me, and I skip the entire line. I still don’t understand this

I could not find one that exists so I am making the robotics paper reading gc. Please comment or DM if you want to be added.

Does anybody know of any twitter gcs where people are regularly reading robotics papers? Would love to be added, and if that doesn't exist, then I'll make it tomorrow.

pallas also recorded that the traders refused to eat meat/fish, which was baffling to the locals in a region where the volga provided endless sturgeon & the steppes provided mutton. the multani traders were famous for making their own yogurt & sweets. pallas was particularly impressed by their cleanliness, noting that they bathed in the freezing volga river every morning, even in the brutal russian winter before performing their pujas.

@JSRGN2 @em_umoh @nonregemesse i would recommend the book by meenakshi jain if you’re really interested in this matter. fun fact, i was a defender of empire in bengal on these very grounds until i did my own research and understood the complex history of this practice.

@viniyoga @em_umoh @nonregemesse By what modern historians? Indian marxists and anticolonialists with an axe to grind? The events really happened and played out, I care nothing for your revisionist, culturally marxist lies.

What’s amazing about this is the fact that the survivor rate of First Class men was lower than Third Class women.
The richest men on the ship, and in the world, stood and waited for their deaths so that the women could take a life boat

73% of all women from every class survived the sinking of the Titanic. Only 19% of men survived.

@JSRGN2 @em_umoh @nonregemesse you used the word marxists. i’m not one. non-partisan historians, & even the ones from either side of the aisle, even if begrudgingly, have begun to shift their theories regarding sati: how it actually played out in history versus what was reported by colonial authorities.
