@HasibFuad @TheDavidBergman Why aren’t our brothers joining our voices in defending against these harmful Indian lies?

@HayekAndKeynes That's crazy ... meanwhile China's GDP per capital is say a third of EU ... so China's energy usage is just massive - why?

@JonFDanilowicz @FahmidaKcpd @badiulm @MichaelKugelman Continually surprised by the lack of a BD Hindu voice in these discussions.

@vicharKAachar @nomhossain @PinakiTweetsBD Which non-hindu faith? You have any evidence?

Have always thought this and can’t understand why we don’t have a solution yet.

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

I feel like a large amount of GDP is locked up because it is difficult for person A to very conveniently pay 5 cents to person B. Current high fixed costs per transaction force each of them to be of high enough amounts, which results in business models with purchase bundles, subscriptions, ad-based, etc., instead of simply pay-as-you-go. As an example, I'd like my computer to auto-pay 5 cents to the article/blog that I just read but I can't, and I think we're worse for it.

In a capitalist system, transactions between entities are the gradient signal of the economy. Because our pipes don't support low magnitude terms in the sums, the gradients are not flowing properly through the system. I'm not familiar enough with payments to have an idea of specific solutions, but I expect we'd see a lot of positive 2nd / 3rd order effects if the gradients were allowed to flow properly, frictionlessly and with much higher resolution.

@GoldenPickaxe3 @nomhossain @PinakiTweetsBD Thanks. I found Shishir-da on FB. great read and provides a different yet thoughtful view. That’s about it. Will continue looking.

@GoldenPickaxe3 @nomhossain @PinakiTweetsBD Don’t care about Indian twitter. I want to know what my fellow Bangladeshi Hindus feel directly from them. Near absence of that voice feels odd but I may just not be looking in right places.

@Prof_FSultana @PinakiTweetsBD @narendramodi @StateDept This type of invective only lowers your credibility @Prof_FSultana - keep doing the good work but no need to go low just because others are.

Haha we've all been there. I stumbled by this tweet earlier today and tried to write a little utility that auto-generates git commit message based on the git diff of staged changes. Gist:

So just typing `gcm` (short for git commit -m) auto-generates a one-line commit message, lets you to accept, edit, regenerate or cancel. Might be fun to experiment with.

Uses the excellent `llm` CLI util from @simonw

@ZafarSobhan Where are leaders of BD hindu community speaking up? Besides @PinakiTweetsBD who else? Much stronger if this message comes from a BD minority leader.

@GlobalMktObserv Sorry - if you average over all investors don’t you just recover the market return?

[Credit Quant Trader @creditquant]

@JonFDanilowicz @DhakaTribune @ZafarSobhan Great! But this - “Things are far from perfect in Bangladesh when it comes to minority rights, but minorities in Bangladesh are much safer and more secure than in, say, India…” Not judicious. Biased critics might discuss only this. Otherwise superb.

Media reports show British MP Tulip Siddiq (former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's niece) mediated a controversial billion-dollar arms deal between Bangladesh and Russia. Under Russian assistance, she also played a key role in Bangladesh's ongoing Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant. British MP Tulip Siddiq was also directly involved in embezzling $5 billion on behalf of her aunt Hasina. British MP Tulip Siddiq has proven evidence of Kremlin links.

Good reporting from @dailystarnews on the various contradictory statements from @sajeebwazed - perhaps someone can advise him to just be quiet for a bit? https://t.co/giHNFENbeh

@trahmanbnp Has everyone forgotten the BNP corruption? If it was BNP rather than AL in power for 15 years we would have been in just as bad if not worse place. Let’s remember 2006 BNP attempted circumvention of CTG system.

Just what we need - Tommy Robinson tweeting lies about Bangladesh from his sunbed

[Jon Danilowicz @JonFDanilowicz]

You know what else kills? An increasingly unpopular personalistic dictatorship overthrown by a popular movement. That regime in #Bangladesh was led by @drSaimaWazed’s mother. They foisted an unqualified candidate on @WHOSEARO You should tell her to resign.

[Michael Kugelman @MichaelKugelman]

Sheikh Hasina was ousted because her security forces killed scores of peaceful protestors, resulting in a mass movement against her that she proved unable to control.
Don’t let misinformation—which continues to circulate nearly two weeks later—obscure this essential fact.
