@vikpai In scientific research too!

Unbelievable (but on the good side*)

Zohran Mamdani met with FIFA for months and worked to get New Yorkers a chance to see the World Cup for only $50, with a free bus ride.

Ticketmaster is selling the same ticket for $500+...

Imagine how much brainwashing it took to convince people that socialist progressive policies are bad for the people

“Gothic Uncertainty” — I was trying to uncover the meaning of a book cover and suddenly GPT 5.2 throws out this word, to help me understand. Fantastic. One of my favorite words from now!!

@GoNorthEastIN Grew up in siliguri in late 90s. Absolutely the same view in mornings and evenings!

[Krishnendu Mukherjee @Mukherjee_07]

Almost surreal! But very happy for Sanju!!!

@DeafMango Ishan kishan is a wicket keeper too that’s why jitesh was dropped!

Starting out a new novel (Paul Auster’s famous The New York Trilogy).
This comes after a long reading gap. I am already blown away by the cover and its detective overtones. I wonder if an AI/image model can create this type of book cover if it didn’t knew these motifs/themes.

@DeafMango 🤣

[Krishnendu Mukherjee @Mukherjee_07]

finally got out!!!

washington sundar seems a very limited term batsman in terms of available shots. Especially for a 5th player position. The guy has also a batting average of only ~21 odd runs which is strange!

I feel this is cryptic signaling to those who were asking whether VK would be there for 2027 CWC!

The only time you truly fail, is when you decide to give up.

Wow! Extremely timely! This is a big recognition for the field of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). My PhD work (just finished this) is neatly tied and concerned with gas adsorption in MOFs. I hope the US government funds more research in this direction

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar M. Yaghi “for the development of metal–organic frameworks.”

Earlier I used to get panicky when not finishing a book or keeping it in the ‘DNF’ed (as the GenZ’s would call it). These days, no problem! Books sitting for months close to my desk. No problem. Just knowing I have a few solid books beside me is enough.

[Krishnendu Mukherjee @Mukherjee_07]

Rest of India having no clue about popularity of Zubeen Garg just shows how isolated or even disconnected people in north east or other frontier states may feel. Flow of culture can be highly asymmetrical where one party gets the others’ culture but the reverse is not true.

[Krishnendu Mukherjee @Mukherjee_07]

True! Having lived in Upper Assam close to 4 years, i can attest this! Papon is equally loved throughout the state

[Rami Niranjan Desai @ramindesai]

In Guwahati today , amidst the grief of #ZubeenGarg passing away. His legendary status clearly unmatched. The whole state is in mourning.

I went to one of the few shops open to buy a pen and the shop keeper wouldn’t take money. He said that he had kept his shop open in memory of Zubeen and would charge nothing all day.

My driver while talking about him started weeping.

This kind of love is rarely seen in big cities.
