@PrasunNagar What would 1 have accomplished?

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@suryakane @elonmusk Don't interrupt him when he's making a mistake. Don't give him good advice

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@suryakane @KanwalSibal They're not burning it fast enough. But still these are good steps.

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@yajnadevam Which is very interesting. One would think such a long drought would turn people away from Indra

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@cbkwgl Ohh. But I thought they didn't displace the people. And that that's one of the reasons they lost Panipat. They were betrayed.

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@yajnadevam Brahmins were given special privileges because they were the thought leaders of society - but the privileges were balanced by the facts that they couldn't own property and do business. If they did either of those then they were no longer brahmins

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@suryakane @muktabh I can't imagine electoral consequences

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@KanwalSibal Isn't Colby author of Western hemisphere and G2 national security strategy?

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@cbkwgl Oh.

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@Jayvtweets Interesting! Was an afternoon siesta common among Hindus? On that note, are there any records of what Hindus ate, how much and when, when they slept etc?

@TheEmissaryCo Where is this painting from?

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@cbkwgl Didn't Gahadavalas also have Turushka Danda - a tax specifically to fund the fight against the invaders?

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@cbkwgl Haan, I have followed yours posts about the timelines. But that would make Mahapadma also pre-Achaemenid right?

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@cbkwgl On Mahapadma, is there any record of what the reaction to his ending the OG kshatriya lines was, aside from one Yuga Purana reference? And why he did it and got social/political capital to do it and get away with it? He was apparently respected enough that Panini was in his court

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@suryakane Not building compute capacity and foundational models is like not building nuclear weapons or ignoring the industrial revolution. I'm baffled how this idiocy was not nipped in the bud.

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@suryakane @rameshsrivats Govt will not ban whatsapp, telegram, signal and kill this like koo. Is desh ka kya hoga?

[Shashwat @Angstasia]

@cbkwgl Justice and compassion with Ottoman characteristics
