An Indian institute filmed a professor teaching classical physics with no notes, no slides, and a green board. Almost nobody outside India watches it.

This is Classical Physics, lecture 1, taught by V. Balakrishnan at IIT Madras, published free by NPTEL, India's national open courseware programme.

Balakrishnan taught at IIT Madras for decades. Students who sat in that room describe the same thing: the whole subject held in his head, delivered in order, no paper on the podium.

Lecture 1 is the introduction. What classical mechanics claims, where the claims hold, and the exact points where they stop holding and quantum takes over.

Watch how he speaks. Complete sentences, no filler, each idea finished before the next begins. Rare in any lecture hall on any continent.

A physicist I know worked through the whole NPTEL series and rates it above the western courses he paid for.

Free on YouTube, 17 years online, low resolution, no marketing.

The teaching was never concentrated in the famous universities.

What a moment for Indian Chess! 18 year Gukesh becomes the youngest and 18th World Champion! Vishy’s children are really on the loose. Congratulations @DGukesh!

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

Historic and exemplary!

Congratulations to Gukesh D on his remarkable accomplishment. This is the result of his unparalleled talent, hard work and unwavering determination.

His triumph has not only etched his name in the annals of chess history but has also inspired millions of young minds to dream big and pursue excellence.

My best wishes for his future endeavours. @DGukesh

@SakshiMalik @CommunityNotes The main tweet of this thread by @SakshiMalik is misleading as it includes pictures from 2019 but are claimed to be recent pictures.

The largest study to date (N=1.13M❗️) on the prognostic value of HER2-low expression is out on @JAMAOnc. With an HR 0.98 & overlapping OS curves, HER2-low confirms not to be a relevant predictor of prognosis. Congrats to the authors for this huge analysis!

शानदार शताब्दी का ईश्वर चरणों में विराम... मां में मैंने हमेशा उस त्रिमूर्ति की अनुभूति की है, जिसमें एक तपस्वी की यात्रा, निष्काम कर्मयोगी का प्रतीक और मूल्यों के प्रति प्रतिबद्ध जीवन समाहित रहा है।

If you're looking at(India's)energy purchases from Russia, I'd suggest your attention should be on Europe. We buy some energy necessary for our energy security. But I suspect, looking at figures, our purchases for the month would be less than what Europe does in an afternoon: EAM

Many states in India were formed because of unique language, landscapes etc.

But do you know the story of how a behind when a state was formed due to bamboo trees and rats ?
