In Nepal, elephants were seen saving people from the devastating Flood... Pray for Nepal 🙏 ♥️

Train 12973 is extremely late for such a short route, what is the delay for @RailMinIndia

The effort he made to save a living being is truly commendable.

My wife (Ria) went to AIIMS. I went to IIT Delhi. We watched 'Hello Bachhon' on Netflix this weekend. One kid in the show breaks down walls in his village to sell bricks so he can afford coaching fees. A girl hides her textbooks because her parents want her married off. Throughout the show, Ria and I realized that we never had to fight for any of that. We had access to coaching. Good coaching. Neither of us ever worried about whether we'd get to prepare. The IIT-AIIMS crowd loves talking about the grind. # of hours of self-study per day, the pressure, and sleepless nights. I've done it too. But that grind starts after you already have access. Most of us skipped the actual hard part and don't even know it because the people who are capable but can't afford access are invisible. They're not in your coaching batch. They're not in your college. You never compete against them because they never got the chance to show up. We credit hard work more than it deserves. Sometimes the biggest advantage was just being born in the right city to the right family. 'Hello Bachhon' made this truth hard to ignore. Great watch.

In 20 years, vibe coders will look at the Linux kernel repo the way we look at the pyramids. In awe, unable to imagine how they managed to drag all those giant stones and pile them up in the middle of the desert.

The math on this project should mass-humble every AI lab on the planet. 1 cubic millimeter. One-millionth of a human brain. Harvard and Google spent 10 years mapping it. The imaging alone took 326 days. They sliced the tissue into 5,000 wafers each 30 nanometers thick, ran them through a $6 million electron microscope, then needed Google’s ML models to stitch the 3D reconstruction because no human team could process the output. The result: 57,000 cells, 150 million synapses, 230 millimeters of blood vessels, compressed into 1.4 petabytes of raw data. For context, 1.4 petabytes is roughly 1.4 million gigabytes. From a speck smaller than a grain of rice. Now scale that. The full human brain is one million times larger. Mapping the whole thing at this resolution would produce approximately 1.4 zettabytes of data. That’s roughly equal to all the data generated on Earth in a single year. The storage alone would cost an estimated $50 billion and require a 140-acre data center, which would make it the largest on the planet. And they found things textbooks don’t contain. One neuron had over 5,000 connection points. Some axons had coiled themselves into tight whorls for completely unknown reasons. Pairs of cell clusters grew in mirror images of each other. Jeff Lichtman, the Harvard lead, said there’s “a chasm between what we already know and what we need to know.” This is why the next step isn’t a human brain. It’s a mouse hippocampus, 10 cubic millimeters, over the next five years. Because even a mouse brain is 1,000x larger than what they just mapped, and the full mouse connectome is the proof of concept before anyone attempts the human one. We’re building AI systems that loosely mimic neural networks while still unable to fully read the wiring diagram of a single cubic millimeter of the thing we’re trying to imitate. The original is 1.4 petabytes per millionth of its volume. Every AI model on Earth fits in a fraction of that. The brain runs on 20 watts and fits in your skull. The data center required to merely describe one-millionth of it would span 140 acres.

With AI data center demands, expecting some good policies for the power transmission and EPC sector in the budget 2026. #Budget2026 #India #Budget #Transmission #EPC #Sensex #TataPower #PowerGrid #Bajel #TORNTPOWER

"My son, Leo, is autistic. He’s non-verbal and terrified of loud noises. Haircuts are a nightmare. We’ve been asked to leave three different salons because he screams when the clippers turn on. I walked into a small barbershop on 4th Street, ready for another disaster. 'He has autism,' I told the barber, a heavily tattooed guy named Mike. 'If he screams, we’ll leave.' Mike looked at Leo, who was hiding behind my leg. Mike didn't say a word. He walked over to the door and flipped the sign to 'Closed.' He turned off the music. He turned off the buzzing fluorescent lights. Then, he sat on the floor next to Leo. He pulled out a pair of scissors and a comb. He didn't force Leo into the chair. He cut his hair right there on the floor. He let Leo hold the comb. He stopped every time Leo flinched. It took an hour. Usually, a haircut takes 15 minutes. When he was done, Leo looked handsome. And he was smiling. I went to pay. 'How much extra for your time?' I asked, reaching for my wallet. Mike shook his head. 'No charge,' he said. 'He sat still better than most of my regular customers.' He handed Leo a lollipop. 'See you next month, buddy.' I walked out to the car and cried. In a world that demands we all fit in, thank God for the people who make room for those who stand out."

Imagine telling someone living 100 years ago that people will soon be flying into the strongest storms on the planet to investigate them. Now try to imagine what people will be doing 100 years from now.

@Noidatraffic @MORTHIndia Many Thanks!

Hi Sir, a Challan number UP42315250605014416 was issued to the wrong vehicle number by the system. Please correct it. I have raised a complaint with proof on the website, ticket number ECUP2505K1M4N5, and the status is still pending, thanks. @Noidatraffic @MORTHIndia

The great thing about the Margin Call screenplay is that the characters are always asking each other to explain the finance stuff in simpler and simpler terms

Hi @Flipkart @Flipkartsupport I want to exchange my OPPO F9 Pro to buy a new phone. I am unable to see the phone in the exchange list. Could you please support that? #Oppo #Flipkart
