This is a civil dispute over my ancestral land in Patna, that was usurped by a criminal who was later gunned down, that has been pending in district court for 17 years. For the first time, my father could not attend a hearing due to medical reasons. Despite this, the court imposed a cost of Rs 2,000.
At the next hearing on 26 February, he submitted medical documents explaining his absence. The judge gave a date of 30 March to consider whether the cost should be waived or not.
When my parents appeared again, after waiting for hours in difficult conditions as one can imagine, the judge stated in a matter of seconds that he had not had time to review the medical documents and simply gave another date.
Notably, this is the bench of a judge who joined in 2018, part of a younger cohort expected to be more responsive and efficient, which makes the conduct harder to justify.
This reflects a deeper problem. A judge takes more than a month for a minor procedural issue, yet does not review basic medical evidence and postpones the matter again. There appears to be no accountability for such delays.
If any other professional behaved this way, it would be unacceptable. Yet in the judiciary, litigants are expected to endure such repeated whimsical decisions.

Brigadier VK Joshi, 70, served the Army for three decades, survived war and multiple counterinsurgency operations, but lost his life to a stray bullet in a pointless clash between a group of urban dehatis.
A Delhi-registered Fortuner overtook a Scorpio N on Mussoorie Road in Dehradun, which hurt the ScorpioN occupants ego. The ScorpioN occupants gave chase. When the Fortuner didn’t yield, the ScorpioN group of urban dehatis pulled out a pistol and started firing.
At that very moment, Brigadier Joshi was out on his morning walk. A bullet from that reckless exchange found him. His friends rushed him to the hospital, but he was declared dead on arrival.
A life of service ended by someone else’s arrogance. As far as the urban dehatis are concerned, I'm sure they'll be out on bail in no time.

Iran’s engineering students have been liberated from their education.
The university seems to have targeted for its role in nuclear technology development.
By that reasoning, the world-famous MIT would be a legitimate war target.

All the techbros who worked to get Trump elected have now just watched him blow up their businesses by fucking the global supply of helium.
Literally. 🤣
That's some serious irony right there.

Marketing bullshit, same as that thing they do every 2 months where they pretend an AI “broke their security” or some crap.
People still fall for this shit.

Anthropic built a model so powerful they can’t afford to release it. their own leaked blog says Capybara scores “dramatically higher” than Opus 4.6 in coding, reasoning, and cybersecurity. a tier above anything they’ve ever shipped. Dario predicted $10 billion training runs by 2026. Capybara is also rumored to be a 10 trillion parameter model. if this is true, it’s gonna be the most expensive AI ever built. the catch? it’s so compute intensive that Anthropic themselves say it’s “very expensive for us to serve, and will be very expensive for our customers to use.” they didn’t build Jarvis. they built Ultron and now they’re figuring out how to let us near it without going broke or breaking the internet.

This needs to become illegal. It is data collection + intimidation of existing employees + stock market manipulation + HR pretending to be working. Literally nothing is good about it and it damages the social fabric a lot.

If you use GitHub (especially if you pay for it!!) consider doing this *immediately*
Settings -> Privacy -> Disallow GitHub to train their models on your code.
GitHub opted *everyone* into training. No matter if you pay for the service (like I do). WTH

IIM बैंग्लोर की फीस ₹26 लाख है सामान्य वर्ग के लिए। SC/ST जाति प्रमाण पत्र दिखा कर पूरी फीस माफी पा जाता है। सामान्य वर्ग SC/ST/OBC की फीस भी भरता है क्योंकि कोई नहीं देगा, तो किसी को तो देना होगा।
