Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.
The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.
This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.
A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.
Lewis Hamilton Appreciation Post 🐐❤️
"For everyone who doesn’t know the full story: It started when he was robbed of his 8th championship. His world clapped, everything he worked for was taken away. Anyone else in his position would have attacked everyone, but what did Lewis do? He stepped back, went into silence to process everything, and came back the next year ready to fight.
But then, he faced a car that wasn't working. People started questioning his passion, and for the first time in his career, he went a full season without a win. He came back again, but the team didn't listen to his feedback. Then came the turning point. his team didn't offer the contract he deserved. So, he chose to follow his childhood dream and sign with Ferrari. Still, he gave his all to Mercedes until the very last race, finally giving them one last win.
A new chapter began: new team, new country, new culture. He started with hope, but things fell apart again. The criticism was everywhere, and he start doubt himself. Then, when it seemed it couldn't get worse, he lost his best friend his dog (Roscoe) who meant everything to him. Ending that year without a single podium for the first time made people say he was 'finished.'
But somehow, he turned it all around. He came into this year like a new person, remembering exactly who he is. Achieving his first podium with Ferrari isn't just a result it’s the start of a new chapter he is writing himself. And we will always be right there with him."
Sanju Samson - After meeting my parents, I got into the car and drove to meet the people who were part of my cricket journey from the start.
Sanju Samson travelled 404 kilometres across Kerala to surprise his old opening partner Rohan Kunnummal ( kerala team captain ) at his home. Just thirty minutes with a friend who once opened with him and later became Kerala captain when Sanju moved on to represent India.
Success feels different when you share it with someone who remembers the days when you had nothing to share.
Q: Lando was told, 'we're gonna get Max'...
Max: "Yeah, I heard that too over the radio! I had to laugh at that, you only motivate me more! It works backwards! It only motivates me, that when he comes for me, to defend even harder."
.@naval: There was a story that I read about @elonmusk that really affected me, which was when he was talking to Bill Gates, and Bill Gates had just taken out some huge short on Tesla. It was like a billion dollar short or something.
And, Elon was like, “Why would you do that? Why would you short Tesla?” And Bill goes, “Well, you know, I talked to my financial advisors and I looked at the math and there’s no way it’s overvalued. And so I’m going to make money on the short.”
And Elon goes, “What do you care about making money? I thought you were into electric cars and climate change and saving the world. What are you doing trying to save a few bucks and betting against Tesla?”. And he just walked away in disgust.
And I think he never talked to Bill Gates after that. And that’s when I realized, like, Elon’s a purist. He means what he says. The money is a tool for him to get what he’s trying to do. And so I take him at face value, which is the crazy thing, because a lot of people who set these audacious goals to inspire people, you kind of know they don’t really mean it.
Elon, I take at face value. So I really do think he intends to get to Mars. I don’t think he’s joking about that. And I think he means to get there within a defined window of time. And I don’t think it’s just like an inspirational, faraway goal. I think he’s very, very concretely going to do whatever it takes.
Because Elon doesn’t want to go down in history as the electric car guy or even the guy who saved America guy. He wants to go down as a guy who got humanity to the stars. Again, I’ll give him more credit than that. I don’t even think he wants to go down as the “I got humanity to the stars” guy.
He’s just like, “I want to get to the stars, and so I have to make it happen in this lifetime. The only way that I get to experience the science fiction world in my head is if I get to the stars.” And so that’s so inspirational. I think that drives everything.
So I think the government was just a thing that got in his way.
A SPECIAL WINNING SPEECH, DINESH KARTHIK....!!!!
- He is truly an inspiration, knowing all the limitations and coming back strongly at this age is remarkable. 🫡
