This was Ponting’s best chance to register a test win in India as an Australian Test Captain but he couldn’t. He never won a test in India as a captain.
All 40 wickets in Mumbai, 2004 👇🏼
20 wickets fell on the third and final day after 18 had already tumbled on Day 2 - a Test match that turned into absolute chaos at the Wankhede Stadium.
Irresponsible and extremely dangerous driving with a kid on the driver’s lap on the Tindivanam-Chennai National Highway. Kindly take necessary action against this violation.

YOU PROBABLY MISSED THIS IN SPIDER-MAN 2 🚨
- When Peter starts losing his powers, he goes to a doctor and explains his situation.
- The doctor tells him: “Maybe you're not supposed to be Spider-Man climbing those walls. That's why you keep falling.”
- After hearing this, Peter throws his Spider-Man suit in the trash and decides to stop being Spider-Man.
- Later in the film, Peter sees a burning building with people trapped inside and in danger.
- At that moment, he realizes he no longer has his suit or his powers.
- He hesitates for a moment.
- Then, without a second thought, he runs straight into the fire.
- Despite having no powers, he manages to save a little girl.
- That moment proves Peter was always a hero and doesn’t need powers to be one.
- Spider-Man was never just the suit or the symbol.
- The real hero was always the man behind the mask.
INDIA STUNNED WORLD NO.6 IN DAVIS CUP!
Dhakshineswar Suresh defeated Den Ouden 6-4 7-6(4) to help India secure a Historic Win 🇮🇳
THIS IS REALLY HUGE FOLKS! 🔥🔥🔥
My manager asked how long it would take to fix the bug.
I said two weeks.
It took forty minutes.
But now I have two weeks of buffer.
That's called experience.
Here's how it works.
Every estimate I give has a multiplier. The multiplier depends on who's asking.
My manager asks: multiply by 4.
A VP asks: multiply by 6.
The CEO asks: multiply by 10 and add "dependencies."
Dependencies are other teams. Other teams are always slow. Even when they're not involved. Especially when they're not involved.
Nobody checks.
The bug took forty minutes. I fixed it Monday morning.
I didn't tell anyone until Thursday afternoon.
That's three days of buffer.
Buffer is protection. Protection from the next ask.
Because the moment you finish something fast, they ask for something else.
Finish the bug in an hour? Great, can you also look at this other thing?
Finish it in two weeks? Great, take the afternoon off. You earned it.
I earned it by lying about how long things take.
That's not how they'd describe it.
They'd call it "managing expectations."
I'm managing expectations.
My expectations are that I don't want to work that hard.
When I was junior, I gave honest estimates.
"That'll take about two hours."
My reward? Four more tasks that day.
Then I watched the senior engineers.
They said "end of week" for everything.
Everything was "end of week."
A config change? End of week.
A one-line fix? End of week.
A meeting that could've been an email? End of week.
They were never stressed.
I was always stressed.
I learned.
Now I'm senior. Now everything is "end of week."
Or "end of sprint."
Sprint is two weeks. Two weeks is forever. Forever is comfortable.
Sometimes someone pushes back.
"Can we do it faster? This is urgent."
I pause. I look concerned.
"Let me see what I can do."
Then I deliver in three days instead of two weeks.
I'm a hero.
I wasn't faster. I was honest about the original timeline.
But the compression makes me look dedicated.
"He really hustled on this one."
I didn't hustle. I just stopped lying for a moment.
Strategic honesty. Delivered at the right time. After enough fake delays.
The best part is nobody tracks this.
Nobody says, "He estimated two weeks but finished in forty minutes."
They say, "He finished ahead of schedule."
Ahead of schedule.
I set the schedule.
I beat the schedule I invented.
That's exceeding expectations.
I'm exceeding expectations.
My performance review says I'm "highly reliable" and "consistently delivers."
I am reliable.
I reliably estimate 10x what things take.
And I consistently deliver.
Right before my fake deadline.
That's called being senior.
New engineers burn out because they're honest.
I padded my way to work-life balance.
My manager asked why I always seem so calm.
I said, "Experience."
Experience means I've learned to lie about time.
Professionally.
With a straight face.
And a buffer that could fit a vacation.
That's engineering.

THIS EFFORT OF WEST INDIES SHOULD BE WRITTEN IN GOLDEN LETTERS…!!!
Our friend Surendhar Kuppusamy (@beingsurendar) has been a victim of major financial fraud, losing ₹1,08,000 in an unauthorized @CRED_club linked transaction, and the system’s security has completely failed to prevent it—even though an OTP was sent and his card was blocked immediately .
Incident Details
- On October 3, 2025, Surendhar received an SMS with an OTP for a transaction of ₹1,08,000 .
- Seconds later, at 9:15 AM, another SMS confirmed that ₹1,08,000 was debited from his HDFC account (card \*6061) via “Dreamplug Paytech Solu” .
- The HDFC debit card was blocked right after the transaction .
- The transaction was marked as a POS (Point-of-Sale) transaction—a process that should require the physical card .
- Surendhar had previously given Account Aggregator (AA) consent to Dreamplug Advisory Solutions (CRED group) to analyze spending, raising questions about data vulnerability .
Critical Security Questions
- How did @CRED_club’s system process a POS transaction of ₹1,08,000 without the card physically present?
- Is the AA data linking with Dreamplug making user accounts more vulnerable to fraud?
- Why did standard bank and app controls fail to stop this massive unauthorized activity?
Action Taken
- Cyber crime complaint filed: 32910250061819 .
- HDFC Bank complaint registered: 00625276002991 .
- CRED support ticket raised: #21948188 (filed by a concerned friend) .
Urgent Call for Action @kunalb11
This is a serious breach that demands immediate attention and a full refund.
Everyone with CRED, Dreamplug, or linked accounts—please check recent transactions and bank statements now .
Guys Please share and RETWEET to support Surendhar and protect others from similar fraud.

இவரை போன்ற ஊராட்சி தலைவர் மற்றும் செயளாலர் ஒவ்வொரு கிராமத்திலும் இருந்தால் சிறப்பாக இருக்கும் ஆனால் அதற்கு மாறாக கல் திருடுபவனும் மண் வளங்களை கொள்ளை அடிப்பவனும் மக்கள் பணத்தை திருடுபவனும் தான் அதிகாரத்தில் இருக்கிறன்.
🌟 Update #3🌟
Return Accepted. Refund Processed. Victory Secured.
Received a calls directly from the Head of the Region at Flipkart & DELL. They agreed to take the laptop back unconditionally and process a full refund. I was also issued a ₹1000 gift card as an apology from Flipkart.
Even more important, They assured that Flipkart will review their return policy and work on introducing reasonable exceptions to prevent such issues in the future.
This is a BIG win. This is the power of social media. When systems fail, public voice prevails.
Thank you all for your unwavering support, this fight was worth it🙏🙏.
