my prediction of congress trying dmk style politics is now become clear. Anti Hindu, trying to bring new caste reservations breaking 50% barrier. They have gone even further, promising wealth distribution.

New pottery finds from a dig on the coast of Queensland 2-3000years old have turned over the longstanding assumption that the Indigenous Australians did not create pottery.

AGI in 5 yrs seems likely, I can think of a possible way perhaps. But I am sure, they will also find it. But with more compute available in next 10 yrs, it will easily be found.

Kind of random but half-way through reading Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children, its a fun read especially if you are into the stuff we discuss here you will enjoy it.

Since the story runs parallel through post-Independence history of India / Pakistan and the creation of Bangladesh. And the main character’s childhood seems loosely based on Salman himself who was also born in 1947 just a bit before independence so the details are very well fleshed out.

hmmm, election season in india. bjp is becoming big and some of its extreme elements are being left out. many are seeing either a ginger group like the ‘tea party’ or even a second ‘hindu’ party. interesting times…
