Always think World Cups are so beautiful for associative memory. They come every four years, allow you to reflect on life, how far you have come, where you were when it last came and just an opportunity to somehow be grateful for everything.

Indeed! To conflate a Rasgulla with an Idli is not just a culinary error; it is a profound cosmological misunderstanding.

To begin with, the comparison is practically a biological impossibility. She is comparing chhena (the delicate, squeaky, pristine curd of milk) with a meticulously fermented batter of parboiled rice and black gram (urad dal). Their compositions are from entirely different kingdoms. One is an airy, spongy lattice designed to trap light sugar syrup; the other is a dense, wholesome, steamed matrix of complex carbohydrates and proteins. Their taste, consistency, structural integrity, and existential purpose share absolutely nothing in common.

But more important, her attempt to dismiss the Idli as merely a blank canvas for sugar syrup does a grave disservice to what is arguably one of the greatest engineering marvels of the culinary world.

The Idli is not a mere "bland cake." It is a masterclass in biotechnology. To achieve the perfect Idli is to balance the delicate microflora of wild fermentation over a cold night, resulting in a steamed cloud that is a triumph of gut health, lightness, and nutritional balance. It is a savoury monolith of South Indian culinary genius, perfectly engineered to absorb the sharp tang of a well-spiced sambar or the fiery depth of a molaga-podi (gunpowder) paste infused with cold-pressed sesame oil or nutritious melted ghee.

To suggest an Idli would even consent to being drowned in sugar syrup is to fundamentally misunderstand its dignity.

If this lady finds Rasgullas overrated, argue that on the merits of their sponginess or sweetness. But please, leave the noble, perfectly fermented, steamed majesty of the Idli out of your dessert-table polemics, ma'am!

Leo Messi: "I always tried to be very respectful on the pitch. I remember Guardiola always told us: the best way to respect your opponent is to always play the same way, be serious, keep scoring, keep playing properly. And that’s what we tried to do at the time, and what I always tried to do, be respectful, be serious, and play my game.

"Obviously, I’m not a saint. In a match you get heated, you react however you can, there are a million situations. But for me, everything that happened on the pitch stayed on the pitch. I might have crossed the line, like we say, and said anything in the heat of the moment. When you want to win so badly, you get fired up.

"But… like we say: what happens on the field, stays on the field. I grew up with that idea, you know? That everything stays on the pitch, and everything that happens in a locker room stays in the locker room.

"It feels strange to me nowadays when a different generation goes out and talks publicly about what happened during a match, or what happened inside a dressing room. I grew up with a different mindset.

"But I understand that times change too. Today’s generation consumes a lot more social media, and because of that, all these things end up being exposed. But for me, it all stays there." @MDA_Podcast

I finally got into NASA!!!!!

(the building for now 😂)

But seriously, standing there hit different. For over 9 years this has been my dream, but it felt impossible. Like something only "other people" got to dream about.

I'm so happy to finally achieve this, but here's the thing: This is also the beginning of something wayyy bigger.

Today, my co-founder @Adebayo__x and I are launching something we've been brewing for a while "@ablehq_ "

Able is not just a product, but an entire ecosystem of software that transforms how Africa learns, earns, and dreams.

I'll be sharing more about @ablehq_ in my next couple of tweets. Join our waitlist at https://t.co/r69UErn7DB to get a front-row seat.
The launch sequence has started.🚀

That's actually so scary what. Except for some exaggerated mouth movements, this is one of the best deepfakes I've seen (and that's bad bad bad) 😵‍💫

Yeah. We're fucked, tbh

I have written a condensed timeline of our gradual understanding of what spectral lines are on my blog website. It looks to be a ~9 minute read. I hope you find it interesting!

[Kurzgesagt @Kurz_Gesagt]

AI-generated content is flooding the internet, from videos and music to news and books. On top of that, generative AI is making false information look more convincing than ever. We're entering a new era of information overload, and figuring out what's real and what's not is becoming a real challenge.

Just spent my money on something i needed

[Ayush Shivkumar @ThinkYouLarity]

@Manasi_J_V Yeah, they discontinued their plans almost simultaneously. Both twitter handles announced the same news today 😶

[Ayush Shivkumar @ThinkYouLarity]

Both Airtel and Jio have discontinued their affordable and convenient 1GB/day data plans. What if I don't require more than a GB per day? Now I will be forced to go for more expensive plans!

This duopoly is dangerous..
