NCR Cab drivers new trick to save pennies on trips. A/C is ON but they pull the thermostat to higher temp setting. We are a country of crooks. Disgraceful. Noticing this 10th time this summer season.

Another Supreme Court masterstroke on NCERT controversy: It has come to our attention that after the order dated 26.02.2026 was passed, certain elements on social media acted irresponsibly while referring to the contents of the said order. We accordingly direct the Government of India to identify such sites/accounts as well as the persons running those sites/accounts and to furnished their full details to enable us to take suitable action. The law must take it so own course

There's a fruit fly walking around right now that was never born.

@eonsys just released a video where they took a real fly's connectome — the wiring diagram of its brain — and simulated it. Dropped it into a virtual body. It started walking. Grooming. Feeding. Doing what flies do.

Nobody taught it to walk. No training data, no gradient descent toward fly-like behavior. This is the opposite of how AI works. They rebuilt the mind from the inside, neuron by neuron, and behavior just... emerged. It's the first time a biological organism has been recreated not by modeling what it does, but by modeling what it is.

A human brain is 6 OOM more neurons. That's a scaling problem, something we've gotten very good at solving. So what happens when we have a working copy of the human mind?

@BrockdLesnar @vijaythirumalai First of all please leave this mindset of tier 1 2 3 your question was good it was better without this tier shit and regarding what you should do if you are on tech twitter just follow enough no one knows what is going on other top tech leaders so we all are in this together.

Day 1 of the AI Impact Summit turned to be a pain for us.

I came genuinely excited, it was the first time the summit was being hosted in India, and I wanted to show up personally to support the ecosystem and the government’s push.

But what happened next was shocking.

At 12 noon, security personnel arrived to sanitise and cordon off the area ahead of the visit by PM Modi visit at 2pm.

I explained that we’re building India’s first patented AI wearable at NeoSapien and requested a chance to showcase it.

One officer told others to let me stay, and they left.

Then another group came and ordered us to leave immediately. Seemed like there was lack of co-ordination between the security itself.

I asked: “Should we take our wearables?”

They said, others are leaving even laptops behind, security will take care.

Trusting them, I left. Hoping that the wearables will be safe, and If I am lucky, it might catch the eye of PM Modi.

Gates were closed from 12–6pm. Much much longer than expected.

Later we found out that our wearables were stolen.

Think about this: We paid for flights, accommodation, logistics and even the booth. Only to see our wearables disappear inside a high-security zone.

If only security and official entourage had access, how did this happen?

This is extremely disappointing.

Welcome to the Hunger Games - Indian Income Tax Version

Every year the Indian State plays a version of hunger games with its taxpayers. Those who have made the mistake of earning RSUs (ESOPs) abroad by working in multinationals or those who have dared to invest abroad through entirely legal channels, trying to take some shelter from an ever-falling rupee, have to run the gauntlet of something called Schedule FA. This Schedule (along with other related parts like Schedule FSI) is an exam that only the most skilled CAs can pass - or they think they can, until the robot singing the song stops and a single foot has inadvertently moved ahead. You then get hit by the horrors of the Black Money Act. The funny thing is the real black money sits in crypto and that is way more relaxed in terms of reporting norms in Schedule VDA.

So let's go back to the hunger games. You have to know first of all that even if you have disclosed your foreign assets or income elsewhere, it must also be present in Schedule FA. Not just present, but in the right way with things like date of investment, peak balance and other minute details correctly recorded. It must be in calendar year although everything else in the ITR is financial year. You have to ensure that the asset is disclosed in rupees using the SBI TT rate (which SBI itself doesn't actually put out). Your CA has to be smart enough to fetch the TT rate from some website the unofficially records it from SBI. If by some miracle you've been a class topper and filled every single detail correctly, you could still end up with a notice. Because 'the system' has flagged it.

Most Indian citizens who invest overseas in listed equity have every intention of paying tax. There is a paper trail at every point - from the remittance to the actual investment with annual information sharing between countries. Sometimes, they make the mistake of thinking tax is payable when there is actually income (schedule FA applies even if you don't actually have any income from abroad that year) and fail to disclose it. If they don't 'do the needful' they are hit with a 10 lakh penalty if they're lucky and prosecution if they are not. In recent years, the State has waived penalty for small mistakes (up to Rs 20 lakh) but for many, the annual hunger games are a brutal as ever. As more and more people flunk the exam, the government has tried SMSes and 'nudge' to get them to pass.

But here's a simpler idea. Just prefill Schedule FA and FSI using the info you get from foreign countries and let citizens 'agree' with the tax. Just as happens with the AIS for all other types of income. Alternatively give a relaxation from hunger games for those investing in listed equity - these are not the black money people. They're just trying to make a quick buck by scoring the next Nvidia or they actually work in Nvidia.

Unless the State has every intention of playing these games so that scapegoats can be found, while politicians continue to sink black money into real estate and crypto without check. In that case, lose your best and brightest to Dubai, faster than ever.

miss bangladesh 2025, tangia methela representing national costume of bangladesh. wears a white saree, in a lotus with 16 shringar, essential part of hindu jewelry & a direct imagery of goddess saraswati, yet has not credited hindu culture. Instead she calls it mughal heritage.

[Saurabh Kumar @drummatick]

As Indians, it's our responsibility to fight and have a claim on what's our truly ours.
Cultural appropriation and cultural stealing are just neo-colonialism, and I won't back down from it.
Yoga, meditation, herbs, and now our clothing.

If we Indians don't use our internet presence to fight back, we will always be subjugated.

[Indian Aesthetics @IndianAesthetik]

It's not shared heritage, it's hindu heritage. People who preserved it for centuries from islamists like you were hindus. they protected their culture, not for you to steal today. also what flower? You can make up any nonsense to copy hindu imagery, doesn't change reality.

@vivekraju93 @shantanugoel There are several benefits of it
First save from fraud payments and the one which I like the most is when there are rush or any festive season you don't have to take out your Phone again and again to check payments you can start seeing other customers
