Historically, #SanatanaDharma wasn’t a single codified religion, but a broad civilisational framework. Today, calling it a ‘way of life’ often gets used to justify #CulturalAppropriation or commercialising its ideas, while conveniently sidestepping their original context.
The Kaundinya has docked in Oman, showcasing Indian shipbuilding and maritime techniques (~500CE). Sweden’s Vasa (~1700 CE) sank within minutes and ~1km. Some cultures were drowning while others had mastered the seas centuries earlier.
Congrats @sanjeevsanyal and the crew! 🙏
Dear @narendramodi, a billion Indians nominate @sanjeevsanyal and the Kaundinya team for this year's Padma honours, for proving ancient India's maritime prowess by sailing a ship built to 5th century specification.
Some advance towards greatness; others return to it. We do both.
When you have batted 50 overs to save a test match, you are perfectly entitled to seek a cherished landmark. And it is good to see that everyone is in the batters' camp on this one. I have no issue with Stokes wanting to go off but I hope young Harry Brook, when he has a quiet moment to himself, will be a bit disappointed with what he did.
As an indie musician, I was tired of endless spreadsheets, missed deadlines & awkward emails.

@chamath What about an AI Economic Zone in Iceland with their cheap geothermal energy? Also a way for Iceland to diversify it's revenue stream. Bitcoin mining was big there a few years ago.
@ElizaFilby I'm really keen to purchase this book, but in the spirit of intellectual honesty, have to ask a question before I do - does this cover the effects of systemic racism and colonisation on intergenerational wealth? Or is it a purely anecdotal view, without considering these?
Living in NZ, you get used to waking up at odd times to watch big sporting events, but the voices that make this memorable are #peterdrury (football), Ian Smith (cricket), and @LizChetkovich (Olympic Gymnastics).
If lack of match practice was a concern for the @BLACKCAPS, why TF would we not pick our best batsman of the past year and one of the only players that has had match time in the IPL? #cricketworldcup
Idea:
Shark Tank for Peace, globally broadcasted.
Premise:
Victims from around the world looking for support from Western governments to help solve humanitarian crises that they probably caused.
Why?
Unless there's a business case, any pitch for peace won't get too far.
@mhp_guy This is great advice! I'm juggling at the ideas of electrical contracting businesses, vs other types in the same electrical vertical, and there's just quite a few factors which make me think again in terms of what doesn't result in a binary outcome.
@saliltripathi This is a stupid, uninformed, and dangerous tweet. Click-baiting at its finest. Do you want to define 'Indian'? How about your negative value judgement on 'Jai Shri Ram? - if so, why not all other religious prayers? Let alone China as a model for child welfare! Congrats.
@ankurnagpal I've been thinking of something similar, especially to do with having a 3D model of the piping and electric wiring in new builds. It'd make diagnostics x10 quicker and more accurate. Easier to implement for new builds.
@fabianstelzer This is such an interesting experiment! Opens the door to discussions about how LLMs prioritize different, sometimes conflicting, and potentially harmful instructions.
