Clearly, Iran doesn’t know diplomacy. Araghchi should have simply said, “I am small economy and US is biggest economy. I can’t fight with the biggest economy”. Should have followed that with laser eyes memes with Sigma written across them. Amateurs !
@UlMazhar91104@naashonomics This one is actually worse, to get to it one has to get down the ROB take a U turn cutting across the incoming traffic from Doddaballapura/Yelahanka.
@bourscheid It is delusional to think that a rich dude can solve all those world problems. They are solved by communities who care for each other and believe in common good. And a political system that enables them to do so.
A Rare Order:
Allahabad HC ordered Rs. 2 lakh compensation for a Muslim man who was illegally detained for 8 days.
Amount to be recovered from ACP, Bara,Prayagraj, after conducting a disciplinary inquiry against him.
There should be action against officers for illegal arrests.
I did. It still doesn't make sense that more books shouldn't be written about him. In fact it is good that more is written about him, that's how more people will get to know of him. Unless there are factual errors. Famous personalities are well known mainly because so much is written & talked about them. Imagine having just one biography of Gandhi or Mandela.
India has also become a Land of Hypocrites .
Do listen !
What is the rationale behind holding a badminton tournament in London when the Govt expected citizens to follow austerity measures?
@ra62193 > humanity will soon branch into 2 species
I feel exactly this way. I see a fully grown person totally clueless at a bank struggling to fill a simple form. They are cognitively so bad to be bucketed into a new species.
This is a central thesis of Ashoka Mody's book.
The health & education divide in India becomes extremely apparent on the ground.
The well off teens are going places but the cognitive abilities of a 30yo who was left behind in terms of education & health is well below that of a 5th grade.
The international division of labor is the great polarizer of the world. Everyone wants to climb the ladder. The big question is how? How could poor nations overcome the entrenched advantages of the rich nations and grab a share of the high-skill work?
@LaxmanSivarama1 > Where the HELL were you all when Venkataraghavan was captain in the match and 12th man in the next match
Sir, Harsha got very angry at the injustice and to his primary school teacher.
@Cfcjoao_20 I wonder if an AI was used to first simulate these movements and then get people to do it. Otherwise getting it right through trial and error will take a very long time indeed.
