@kartographien@fermatslibrary “Formally verified in Lean” is a very significant answer to my concern - but I’d still wait for independent compilation and expert scrutiny before saying the problem is settled by the mathematics community.
@hyderabaddoctor Another insightful post Dr. It is not either/or. It is both. Aerobic increases the life span and strength training improves the quality of those additional years.
@hyderabaddoctor Gradually the sense of community and belonging is diminishing and being "independent" is not always the right thing. Something that I am trying, however not always successful, is 1:1 connect, rather than being part of a whatsApp group, which gives false sense of connectedness.
@BijayKumarBhuy6@hyderabaddoctor It took some getting used to, both for me and and for the folks calling me later in the day, however this is working well for me for the last 1 year. For emergency, call my wife (there wasn't a single call that needed my immediate attention). We tend to overestimate "emergency".
I was just in Mumbai, and I have to give them credit for the progress they’re making on infrastructure. The new Aqua Line metro is phenomenal. But the amount of work India still has to do on basic cleanliness and sanitation and it is hard to understand until you see it yourself. Would love for more westerners to go just to understand how wealthy they are, but that's a different point.
Mumbai is completely surrounded by water, yet there are almost no places where people can actually enjoy the water. The beaches are filled with trash, the water is badly contaminated, and almost nobody swims, even when it’s brutally hot outside. Walking on the beach is just mud and trash meeting filthy water on the horizon.
There are much poorer places around the world where people can still use the beaches. This is not just about money. India has gone decades without adequate trash collection, sewage treatment, or enforcement for a population of more than a billion people. At this point, the scale of the problem feels almost impossible, and the oceans around the world are paying the price for Indias garbage output as well.
I like the direction Modi is taking the country, but India needs to treat cleanup like a national emergency. Stop with the small campaigns and organize a full scale blitz.
Offer unemployed people paid work picking up trash, clearing drains and waterways, cleaning beaches, and maintaining public spaces. Give them proper equipment and supervision. Then build the collection and waste processing systems needed to stop everything from becoming filthy again a week later.
India has shown that it can build metros, airports, highways, and digital infrastructure. Clean streets and usable water should be treated as infrastructure too.
Mumbai should have one of the greatest waterfronts in the world. Instead, it's has basically an irrelevant feature of the city and feels surrendered to sewage and garbage.
@DealsDhamaka I was one of those who always believed in India story, the next decade is India, they said for the last 30 years. Now in my 40s I have given up on India. It is not that there are no development, there are. Infrastructure and all. But, people? People are not changing. Same old!!
@hvgoenka That is easier said than done. Humans are wired to think the worst, that is negativity bias. However once you understand this, we can be deliberate in pausing and redirecting your thoughts.
