Interesting #BlastFromThePast by Vivek Shukla in recollecting the party hosted by then Brigadier K M Cariappa (later Field Marshal) at #GymkhanaClub on the eve of Partition!

Somewhere in #Bengaluru, a #dose (doh-say) is being topped with ice cream. A chutney is watching in silence. A sambar is getting cold. The Dose has been under attack for years, now. And finally, there's an #FIR. Justice must be served — preferably with good filter #coffee!

Turning the humble 'Dose' into a laboratory experiment in the name of “aspirational eating” is nothing less than culinary vandalism. They brutally assault it. Unforgivable crime. Absolutely unacceptable! Superb edit by @Chethan_Dash #dose #Bengaluru

#Exclusive #India #Astronauts

India’s astronaut cadre is expected to open to civilians, marking a shift in how @isro is preparing for human spaceflight beyond the first few #Gaganyaan missions. 4 civilians likely in the 2nd batch. Read this thread for more exclusive details. 1/n

#Space #Moon #India

#Artemis is more than returning to #Moon. Rules, resources, long-term presence are now in play. India has engineered its way to Moon, but the question is whether it can cement its place there! Engineering alone — even which is ailing — won't cut it!

One of the unsung heroes of @INSVKaundinya - he played a pivotal role in this historic project. His raw emotions were quite evident during the flagged in ceremony in #Mumbai. Read #Voyage #IndianNavy @indiannavy @sanjeevsanyal #Pune

@AshwiniS1010 Please do write to us about civic issues in your areas, as you highlighted above. We have a dedicated citizen page - if you follow TOI, you will see all type of civic stories. It's impossible to get to know problems of all corners of the city.

@BhushanManmath We all appreciated and awestruck with his unbelievable hitting, but he could do it because of poor umpiring by 'the great Steve Bucknor'. He was plump LBW when he was in 40s- while sweeping Dinesh Mongia he was right in front. Listen to commentry on Fox cricket.

@AshwiniS1010 Great to know about your badminton endeavour, bravo!

[Sandip Dighe @DSandip_TOI]

@AshwiniS1010 Frankly speaking!

Docs increasingly find cognition in #GenZ & #BabyBoomers is failing in similar fashion — by disuse and not damage! And #HerculePoirot, one imagines, would have been appalled by what's happening to our “little grey cells”. It may be time to reset, mon ami...

#AI knows how #caste works in #India. Here's a long piece based on multiple research studies on caste is as deep-rooted in #LLMs as it is in the society. As AI systems move into hiring, credit scoring, education, governance, and healthcare, the stakes intensify with such #bias!
