@bhaskar5591 @monikahalan But they can void the contract citing misdeclaration. That is the problem. Now the customer has to prove that he or she didn’t know about the pre-existing disease. Thankfully not so in life insurance, there the claim cannot be denied after 3 years on the basis of mis-declaration.

@mnwsth @Meta The war on “literally” has been long lost!

@shantanugoel Did you confirm if they do body fat analysis, last I called most of these labs only had bone density analysis via DEXA, not body fat.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@nickcammarata @cljack lol so obvious just stop building it. But then they don’t really mean what they mean. Unless they are narcissistic “good guys”.

[Adithyan Madhu @CalyxRhune]

No, that is extremely wrong. A decipherment does not just need to “read what is written” and stop there. Producing Sanskrit-like readings alone is nowhere near enough, especially for a short corpus where pattern matching and confirmation bias are already very easy. Ts where contextual evidence matters. Take inscription M-1383 for example. It was found on a firing pot containing around 17 stoneware bangles. The inscription itself appears to show one large stroke and seven small strokes, which many researchers interpret as a possible decimal-style 10+7 notation matching the quantity inside. That has a direct archaeological context tied to the object. Now compare that to reading the inscription as something like “damana-asamāna” meaning “O incomparable subduer.” How does a vague devotional phrase logically connect to a pottery container holding bangles with possible quantity notation? That is the problem. A decipherment has to explain the material reality and usage context too, not just generate readable Sanskrit phrases.

@lalitshrma I feel sorry for our country bro if only would read books you won’t embarrass the country.

@TradDeshastha Academics care about categories because it allows for easier communication. You may not care about that as a practicing Hindu. Modern Hinduism as a unified entity evolved in the last 2-300 years as a response to colonialism but that doesn’t mean it’s a completely new thing.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@TradDeshastha These distinctions were created by Indian historians not by westerners. He is not saying that you can’t claim continuity he is saying that Hinduism as practiced today is not the same thing as what the people who the wrote Vedas practiced.

@tikshatriya @ThePujaTeli @DrDavidMiano @Fintech03 Not an expert but the diff in settings - Harappa is urban, Early Vedic is clearly pastoral, and doesn’t have the vocabulary of a city life, lack of horses in Harappa that vedas hold in high regard, Early vedic economy is rural as seen from textual evidence, archeological records.

@PhilipPanass @Ugrashravas academic honesty of Hindutva.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@lalitshrma @DrDavidMiano @Openatic Oh I am very clear what and where the debate is from. You may be completely blind to who is influencing you as you are not smart enough to think on your own anyways. Parroting leftist arguments to claim victimhood is a very clever old trick of your ilk.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke I don’t even know what “Hindutva Academics”. I am questioning the whole project not just the academics. Are you saying you don’t support the Hindutva political project and support only the narrow goal of countering western bias in Indian history? If that is, Godspeed my friend.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke Academic dishonesty needs very a high bar of evidence. Have they committed academic fraud? I have not seen that. I am not saying they can’t be biased or have gaps in their knowledge. That could very well be true.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke I am not saying that at all. If you said that X religion people are good or bad because X religion has these ideals in its book or theology I would look at how people of that religion behave to disprove your point that theology has any value.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke That’s a claim. You want to count all Hindus as Hindutva-vadis. I dont think every Hindu agrees with that. In fact many don’t given the vote share percentage of BJP. Also don’t be so naive - it’s like saying n-word literally means black, what’s the problem?

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke Bro, this IS politics. Social media is not where the truth of the history is being decided. If you want to fight, find capable academics who can write papers. But your government fund charlatans or promotes fakes like Chavda. It is not just dishonest but incompetent.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke True that no ideals in ideology. Thanks for the spellcheck bro.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke Switcharoo from Hindutva to Hindu,
that’s another sign of dishonesty and bad faith debate. I didn’t say anything about Hindu historians. I get most of my history from Indian historians including Hindu.

[Deepak Angrula @mxfunc]

@Ugrashravas @DrDavidMiano @AudreyTruschke I chuckled at your general claim that Hindutva is an idealogy of truth because of the practice of questioning authority in Hindu philosophy. As stated, the claim is incorrect unless you saying that you were only talking about history and in other matters truth be damned?
