A 15-year-old dream has come true today. I started a PhD with the dream of creating a system that chants any Sanskrit shloka perfectly.

And here I am opening sourcing 𝐕𝐚𝐠𝐝𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐮 - 𝐀 𝐯ṛ𝐭𝐭𝐚 (𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫) 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 ś𝐥𝐨𝐤𝐚-𝐭𝐨-𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭-𝐭𝐨-𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐜𝐡 (TTS) 𝐬𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐤𝐫𝐢𝐭. This is the world's first vrutta-aware, open-source TTS for Sanskrit Chanting.

THANK YOU DAVID FOR THE LESSON! 🥹❤️
Life is full of lessons. Last week, on a flight from Goa to Mumbai, I learned one.
In the picture is David.
When David boarded the flight, many people looked at him because he was overweight. He came and sat across the aisle from me. In the middle of the flight, he opened his bag, took out a huge collection of chocolates and sweets, and then walked towards the washroom.
I exchanged a glance with the gentleman sitting next to him and said, “He shouldn’t eat so much sweets and chocolates!” This was said out of concern! The gentleman smiled and replied, “Well, that’s probably why he looks the way he does.”
A little while later, David came back, gathered all the sweets, and handed them over to the cabin crew. 🥹
I was surprised.
So I told him, “I must confess, I thought you were going to eat all those chocolates yourself, and that’s why you were overweight.”
He smiled and said, “ I don’t blame you for thinking like that! I have a medical condition. But I used to work with airlines, and I know what cabin crew members go through every day. So I like to bring them something sweet whenever I travel.”
What an outstanding human being.
And what a lesson for me.
How quickly we judge people. How easily we create stories about them without knowing anything about their lives.😳
Thank you, David, for reminding me that kindness is often hidden behind appearances, and that the best people are sometimes the ones we understand the least.
I asked him for a pic! He obliged!
Thank you for the lesson my friend!❤️ #LifeLessons #Encounters

@parrysingh Swear by it myself as well @parrysingh , it’s a constant and consistent companion. Somethings are best written and thought over. And a physical pen 🖊️ beats - in my humble opinion- every other writing instrument in its simplest form.

Remembering Rajiv Gandhi on the anniversary of his tragic death.
He was one of the warmest, most decent human beings to become Prime Minister of India. With him, what you saw was what you got; there was no deviousness, no subterfuge & certainly, no megalomania.
When he made mistakes he admitted it. When he felt he had been unfair to people he apologised. And despite growing up in a political family he never let the cynicism that characterises Indian politics get to him.
We often forget that he may have been the first Indian PM to have ever held a regular job, to have paid income tax and PF. This gave him an understanding of how salaried people in India lived & how the system was tilted against them. During his time taxes were lowered,the stock
market boomed and India prepared for the digital age.
He went too soon. If he had lived he would have returned to power sooner rather than later. By the time he died, he had learned from the early mistakes that his inexperience led him to make & was ideally placed to lead India into the 21 st Century and to forge a society
that had no room for divisiveness & hatred. As even his critics will concede, he was at heart a unifier, signing accords in Punjab, Assam & Mizoram, ending conflicts and building a better India.

There is so much recent negativity about @airindia that I want to put this out.
I have taken 3 flights on @airindia in the last three days.
On Wednesday:Rome to Del
On Thursday: Del to Bom
On Friday: Bom to Del
In every single case the flight was on time. The inflight service was warm & efficient. Luggage came relatively quickly (quickest in Del)
The check in was entirely painless
I don’t think frequent travellers care as much as others about airline food but if you think that’s important then I had a very good dinner on Rome to Del.
On the international sector I
flew one of the older Dreamliners & I am not one of those aeroplane nerds but I thought
it was very comfortable.
It’s second nature for many
of us to bitch about @airindia but it’s one of only two international airlines I
fly regularly. The other is @emirates which admittedly is far better ( & far more expensive) but it is the best airline in the world so it’s better than every other carrier anyway.
The Tatas need to hold their nerve. There is a lot that is good about @airindia that rarely gets acknowledged

claude mythos just broke Apple's $2 billion defense system. it did so by discovering a completely different attack vector to break in

only took it 5 days costing ~$35K of mythos api time (the same exploit class costs $5-10M on grey market)

the researchers that commandeered the exploit produced a 55-page report that was delivered to Apple HQ in-person (hoping they release it after patching).

most shocking part for me is apple's MIE worked as intended. mythos just discovered a new way to side-step it entirely by poisoning the data the M5 chip ingested.

at this point i think we have to accept that mythos walks the walk.

As the anthropic red-team explicitly confirmed this week - this is NOT a compute resource issue. its national defense.

AI inference cost (which we pay in dollars) may rival our oil import bill and blow up our current account deficit. Great post on that below.

What is the solution? I believe that high developer productivity can be achieved without the high AI inference bill. We have to invent our way out of trouble. Stay tuned.

A simple principle of living needs to be taught to kids from an early age:

“leave a place in the same or better condition than you found it.”

Wipe the sink. Straighten the chair. Pick up the stray popcorn. Stay on the trail. Leave the forest as you found it.

If we follow this everywhere - from bathrooms to meeting rooms, cinema halls to earth itself, the world would be so much more beautiful.

@parrysingh So inflation & inflated aspirations 😇 at a high level !

[Santosh krishna @santoshkrishna]

@parrysingh Trying to steer away from the ideals discussion here a bit- but guess not entirely- I remember a few years ago someone said - the new crore is 5cr, guess it’s now 10cr- at this rate is it inflation or greed that has no end for the working class or the middle and aspiring group?

@parrysingh I bought the kindle version - India store 😇, will start with it this week !

[Parminder Singh @parrysingh]

Kindle vs. printed books? I think I’ve finally settled it, at least for myself.
Fiction demands immersion. You need the weight of the book in your hands and the physical feel of being somewhere else. Print wins clearly.
With non-fiction, you’re primarily mining for insight - highlights, annotations, searchable notes. Kindle is built for exactly that.
So, fiction in print, non-fiction on Kindle - is working beautifully for me.
