yesterday I visited the Harish-Chandra Research Institute in Prayagraj for some work. While I was there, someone casually mentioned the name Ashoke Sen I had never heard of him before. But the more I asked, the more I was stunned. So I researched everything about him here is what I found 👇 > he is a Indian Theoretical Physicist & String Theory Pioneer > born in a middle-class family in Kolkata > No elite background. No connections. Just pure brilliance > studied at Presidency College, Kolkata > moved to IIT Kanpur, then Stony Brook University, USA > spent years on problems most physicists considered unsolvable > colleagues doubted the relevance of String Theory > governments didn't fund it. Industries ignored it still he didn't quit > In 1994 he proposed S-duality a breakthrough that shook the world of physics > changed how scientists understood the universe at its deepest level > opened the door to the String Theory Revolution > cracked the mystery of Black Hole Entropy using String Theory > did what even Einstein couldn't fully do > the world finally noticed > In 2012, awarded the inaugural Fundamental Physics Prize 3 times bigger than Nobel Prize > $3 Million (₹35–36 crore) the largest individual prize in science at the time > chosen among the greatest minds on Earth > never left India permanently. Chose to work from first Allahabad now Bangalore > proved that world-changing science doesn't require Silicon Valley or Harvard > became India's greatest living theoretical physicist said "The best discoveries come not from chasing prizes, but from chasing truth."

indian wedding buffet is a scam. i always leave regretting something. so i built BuffetGPT 😠 an ai agent that scans entire buffet and gives you a game plan. it uses computer vision to detect every dish, then optimizes what to eat, what to skip, and how much based on actual stomach volume physics. its' pretty early, tested alpha at a friend's wedding. decent results. tbh, this is what my cs degree was for.

Want to hear a schizophrenic guy explain KiCad to you? I have a YouTube channel.

Can't wait to see this integrated in @kicad_pcb

I'm a Reserve Manager at a central bank. My job is buying gold. 297 tons this year. Quietly. While we print money. Loudly. Gold hit $5,000 an ounce yesterday. We've been buying since it was $1,800. That's called "reserve diversification." Diversification means we don't trust our own currency. But we can't say that. So we say "diversification." The Governor went on television last month. He said inflation is "anchored." Anchored means 6%. Used to mean 2%. We moved the anchor. That's monetary policy. He said the currency is "sound." Sound means losing 20% of its value. Per year. But it sounds sound. That's what matters. We bought 45 tons in November. Poland bought 95 tons. Brazil bought 43. China reports 1 ton. China is lying. We all know. Nobody says it. 95% of central banks plan to buy more gold next year. That's a survey. We surveyed ourselves. On whether we trust ourselves. We don't. We trust gold. Citizens ask why prices keep rising. We say "supply chains." We say "external factors." We don't say "we printed 40% of all money in existence since 2020." That's not external. That's us. The Finance Minister asked if gold is a hedge against our own policies. I said "gold is a strategic reserve asset." Strategic means yes. I just can't say yes. Gold is $5,000 now. Our currency buys less every day. Our gold buys more. That's the strategy. For us. Not for you. You get the currency. We get the gold. That's central banking.

Yo @anool how close are you to building this at the asylum?

It won't be UIs or UXs that will trigger migration and adoption of #floss #opensource. It surprisingly will be privacy and autonomy concerns that will force the decision for people.
