Proofs have been provided in lot of previous terror attacks like 26/11 Mumbai attack, Pathankot, Pulwama etc. What did Pakistan do with the proofs? Nothing.
Regarding Indian voting machines, there is also randomization involved at various levels during distribution making it difficult to game the system but still I always wonder if there is any way to hack the system. I hope people in charge have a process to continuously evaluate the security procedures and improve it.
> Before I would have said we have plenty more to do before A.I takes over. And a.i ( Assisted Intelligence ) would aid those creative process.
My guess is in the short term it will still be assisted intelligence except that it will be humans assisting AI models as in humans in the loop correcting minor mistakes in the model generated video frames.
The most incredible thing about UPI is how it was embraced by even the poorest in the remote corners of India. One of the former finance ministers of India talked in a dismissive tone in the parliament about rural India adopting digital payments when the current government announced "Digital India" plan. Some one made a meme video out of it mocking him.
There is a geopolitics angle to this. US has been making noise about upcoming election in Bangladesh being "free and fair". US has even announced some visa policy to promote "democratic elections" in Bangladesh. US has been pursuing a military base in Bangladesh. The current government has been resisting the pressure. According to a report, India has conveyed to US its concerns about what it perceives as US interference in Bangladesh elections.
> She blames the antibiotics for altering her children’s gut microbiome and herself for agreeing to the treatment in the first place.
My son had to be administered antibiotics within an hour of being born. He later developed allergies to a wide range of nuts. I don't know if they are related but I always wonder about the connection.
What makes you think India hasn't been investing in railway safety? While the recent accident was unfortunate, number of railway accidents have been decreasing over years. Here is an infographic:
+1. First time I came across these speakers was when I had tea in a road side tea stall off an highway. The shop was crowded and I held my phone at the owner to show him the evidence of payment which he ignored and within a couple of seconds my payment was announced on the speaker. Great experience!
Why India should continue to invest in space technology?
Odisha cyclone in 1999: 10,000 dead.
Odisha cyclone of similar intensity in 2019: < 50 dead because ISRO was better equipped to track the cyclone path giving enough time for Govt to evacuate people to safety.
Ignore the ignorant including "liberal", "progressive" publications like NYT which publish racist cartoons on Indian space program.
Apparently lots of VCs and startups use SVB as their bank. Could someone explain why would startups not choose relatively safer big banks like BoA or Chase? What are the advantages of using SVB as the primary financial institution?
> The Ayodhya mosque-temple riots are another facet of this clash. Western commentators glibly say 'Hindus are anti-Muslim'. The issue in India is so much more nuanced than that; there is bad blood on both sides going back a thousand years. Islam cannot escape from these charges: the religion is fundamentally intolerant of non-Abrahamic ones, especially ones with liberal iconography (like Hinduism and Buddhism).
Bhaktiyar Khilji burned down Nalanda University but there is a town (Bhaktiyarpur) nearby named after him! I guess this can happen only in India. Now if you try to change the name of the town it will be called anti Muslim move.
More than 50% of Indian MPs are lower caste and minorities https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/only-39-mps-are-politi...
Indian PM and president are from backward caste. Reservation for lower caste in government educational institutes and jobs is more than 50% https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservation_in_India#States.
So much for upper caste having complete control of democracy and lower caste being "the most disenfranchised and marginalized communities". I'm not saying all problems are solved. It's a work in progress like any other democracy but progress is being made slowly and steadily.
Not everything is rosy anywhere in the world. One can find issues with any positive story. I would rather have expensive real estate problem due to high paying jobs than poverty.
