Dear @krishnabgowda,
A solid waste facility in Hennur, near Sparsh Hospital and the nearby tech park, is burning waste almost every day. The smoke and smell are affecting residents, hospital visitors, and employees in the area.
Requesting your immediate intervention to stop the open burning and ensure this plant is moved somewhere else.

@sudhirchaudhary You never miss an opportunity to shift accountability away from the government. That’s becoming your trademark. Journalism is supposed to question those in power, not invent villains to shield them.
The more I study religion, history, and science, the harder it becomes to view any faith as a uniquely privileged source of truth.
Every civilization has produced its own gods, prophets, miracles, and sacred texts. Yet a person’s deepest convictions about ultimate reality are still predicted far more accurately by birthplace than by evidence. A child born in Mecca, Varanasi, Rome, or China will likely inherit a completely different certainty about the nature of existence.
Science demands something far more uncomfortable: that every belief remain provisional, subject to revision in the face of new evidence.
One tradition begins with faith and seeks confirmation.
The other begins with doubt and seeks understanding.
The history of human knowledge suggests that doubt has been the more reliable guide.
After all, nearly every major advance in our understanding of reality emerged not from reverence for established truths, but from the willingness to question them. The Earth was not the center of the cosmos. Disease was not divine punishment. Species were not immutable. Time and space were not absolute.
Progress began when someone was willing to ask: “What if we’re wrong?”
That remains the most powerful question humanity has ever discovered.
More power to you. In India, asking questions like this to a leader who sees himself above criticism could invite far harsher consequences. Meanwhile, much of the mainstream media stays busy praising the government and acting like cheerleaders instead of holding power accountable.
Mr. Vembu claims that software engineering is going to be obsolete.
He is repeating the hype which sounded smart in 2023.
Yes, Agents are getting better. This is due to better engineering practices and frameworks, not model improvements.
Companies are also leveraging AI better by upskilling their workforce. Hallucinations are still a very real problem.
The original source of these claims are Sam Altman and Dario Amodei, who make absurd statements hoping to justify their stock value.
Mr. Vembu's acceptance of these claims doesn't make sense to his business. I think he truly believes in them.
It is a contrarian take. I applaud his courage. His points don't make sense. I wish he would think more before posting like this.
Happy to hear counter points.
🚨 Arnab 1/10. Sonal 10/10.
When Arnab raises public issues once, it goes viral.
Sonal does it every evening - pollution, Noida techie, Unnao, accountability.
Noise gets noticed.
Consistency gets ignored.
That says more about us than about them.
Vande Bharat Sleeper tested today by Commissioner Railway Safety. It ran at 180 kmph between Kota Nagda section. And our own water test demonstrated the technological features of this new generation train.
She's the hero Bangalore deserves, & also the one it needs right now.
She’s a silent guardian, a watchful protector, a dark knight against the society uncles who are going to learn the hard way what happens when they over reach their non-existent owner powers
Indians think that brick and mortar is development. The real development is safe environment, open green spaces, walkable cities, pure air and drinking water. Getting your jhantu milaawti doodh anda paneer in 10 minutes is not development.
With all due respect ma’am, cities don’t become clean just by asking people not to litter. Strong laws and strict penalties for violators are what actually keep a city clean.
