Humiliation ritual is not stopping for India.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei laughs at India’s AI summit and tells reporter that it was extremely disorganised.

They also changed the order in which everyone was standing on stage at last minute.

Then Modi suddenly told them to hold hands.

It was extremely awkward for everyone.

First 𝕏 , then Telegram, then Anthropic, looks like Modi has decided to take Ls from every tech giant.

My India doesn’t deserve this humiliation 💔

6 players in an ice cream market and Japan is worried. We have effectively 2 and half players in a critical sector like Telecom and we are chill 😂😂😂

notice how their professors aren't forcing them to sit back down and practice bootlicking the way Indian teachers and professors do

CM Suvendu, like CM Himanta of Assam, is basically an amoral defector to Rich Powerful BJP.
They have to show Hindu extremism to prove loyalty.
Suvendu didn't allow Muslims to do Eid Namaz on Red Road for an hour
— but has shut down critical road for a WEEK for PM's 1-hour programme

Fascinating argument by Bloomberg's top energy analyst Javier Blas 👇: he argues that China effectively saved the world economy during the Iran war by absorbing the brunt of the global oil supply shock on its own, without visible economic damage.

According to his calculations, China "cut its average daily waterborne oil imports by the same amount as the combined oil consumption of Germany, France and the UK."

And, still according to Blas, they "did so without suffering economic harm" because they could rely on many levers: their huge strategic petroleum reserve, a massive surge in EV usage, their remaining coal-fired electricity capacity, and coal-to-chemicals replacing lost feedstocks.

Had China not been ready to absorb that blow, a good argument can be made that the economic damage to the West, and the world at large, would have spiraled far beyond what we saw.

Effectively, China's energy strategy at all levels (petroleum reserves, EVs, etc.) and its ability to withstand huge supply shocks paid off for everyone, not just for them.

It sounds awfully familiar: in 2008 too it was China's stimulus package and continuous buying of US Treasuries that averted a complete breakdown of the global financial system.

So twice in 20 years the country the West loves to present as a "threat" to the global economy effectively saved it from a US-made global economic disaster 🤷

I think only in India we see funniest rules....

-Paper leaked?? Lets ban Telegram

-Killed someone with Porsche?? Write 300 words essay

-Same minister who says India is developed, super power?? Settled his children abroad

-Did 1000cr bank scam & settled abroad? no issue

-Didn't repay 1 lakh loan on time? your property is confiscated

-30k/month clerk in gov office?? can have 100cr worth properties

Dear ministry of IT,
Scammers are reportedly using Slack & MS teams to leak NEET papers. Kindly issue a ban.

Fun game with quality at SoFi, finishing Iran 2-2 New Zealand.

But Iran head coach Amir Ghalenoei says his team are "most oppressed in World Cup".

"They said we have to leave immediately. We were supposed to stay until tomorrow lunchtime to recover."

Lol do people seriously believe there are 430 million middle class people in India? Do you go outside and not see the obvious fact that 95% of this country lives in abject poverty and deprivation?

[Arjun* @mxtaverse]

This is how a sovereign nation acts. But for this to happen, your leaders must have some self respect and not have conflict of interest.

People who think money is the problem with Indian football have never read how much ISL players earn for playing 25 games a year, half of which they sail through as passengers. Laughable.

Give football a dedicated $10 billion budget and watch India transform into a footballing giant within the next decade.

Iran has rubbed America’s nose on the ground and emerged Victorious. Israel Tamed. China remains a Towering Giant. Pakistan has emerged in Diplomatic Centerstage. India currently is useful for arranging or attending events and organising dance to welcome foreign leaders

Before 28th Feb
Hormuz free & open. Iran willing to talk on nuclear. Gulf states secure. All assets abroad frozen. Sanctions in force. Israel image invincible.

Today
Hormuz at Iran's mercy. Iran will go nuclear 100%. Gulf states at Iran's mercy. Irani assets to be unfrozen. Most sanctions to be lifted. A lot destroyed by America-Israel to be rebuilt by a compensation fund. Israel beaten.

That's what we call the art of the deal!
