🧵Is India 25% Bangladesh, 28% China, 38% Ethiopia, 7% Pakistan and 2% Philippines?
That is the “Synthetic India” constructed by researchers at Texas Tech to estimate how India would supposedly have performed without Modi. (1/17)

It's funny that the armed forces have to hire Agniveers and schools & colleges have to hire temps because we can't give pension, no money saar, but we can totally recruit 300 extra MPs and pay for bungalows, security, pension, health, etcetc.
Best paper I've read so far this month:
All elementary functions (sin, cos, tan, exp, log, powers, roots, hyperbolic functions, π, e, and even basic arithmetic) can be generated from just one binary operator:
eml(x, y) = exp(x) − ln(y)
…plus the constant 1.
@IndiaPostOffice My letter with documents ( LW010950552NL) is stuck in customs - your SMS says it is INBOM5, web tracking says it is in Delhi - can you please point me in some direction? It is not a package, just an envelope with important documents

The capability overhang right now in AI is pretty massive. Most of the world still thinks of AI as chatbots that will answer a question on demand but not yet do real work for them.
Beyond coding, almost no knowledge work has had any real agentic automation applied to it yet. The past quarter of model updates is going to open up an all new AI agent use-cases across nearly every industry.
The winners will be those that can figure out how to wrap the models in the right agent scaffolding, provide the agent the right data to work with context engineering, and deliver the change management that actually drives the change in workflow for the customer.
This is what 2026 will be about.
