Similar to how Keralites have made eating beef their whole personality and somehow feel superior about it, Bengalis are trying hard to mimick the same thing by eating nonveg during Navratri.
Happy Dussehra, everyone!

While scrolling Instagram, i saw a reel of Aishwarya Rai and Ajay Devgan where she asked him for food but he said 'Gutka kha leta hun to bhukh nhi lagti' i thought it's a feel good and comedy type movie
I searched on YouTube and start watching. I just wanted to see the context of that Gutka scene but when it came i didn't even care about
Man, i went for entertainment but ended with trauma, what was that, first time I felt that much of pain. Why didn't he save her completely, why???😭😭😭
Honestly I saw the best of Aishwarya Rai and Ajay Devgan. This movie is the book of acting
A 10/10 movie
Not the President!
Not even the Prime Minister!
Watch the Grand Entry of Sarkari Babu and then look at the surroundings, looks worse than third world Africa.
This is the story of a french astronomer, stranded after missing the Venus transit, watches a Tamil Brahmin compute the December 1768 lunar eclipse in < 45 mins with cowries and palm-leaf booklets, matching the Paris ephemerides.
In 1768, a man named Nana Moutou walked into a French astronomer's house in Pondicherry and offered to compute an eclipse in front of him.
The astronomer was Guillaume Le Gentil of the Royal Academy of Sciences, Paris. He had come to India for the 1761 transit of Venus and was stuck at sea on the day.
He waited 8 years for the next one. On 3 June 1769, a single cloud covered the Sun at the exact moment. Nearly 10,000 leagues, he wrote, just to be "spectator of a fatal cloud".
Hidden inside the same book is a story nobody tells...
Le Gentil had been in Pondicherry barely 8 days when Nana Moutou came with an interpreter. Le Gentil asked for the total lunar eclipse of December 1768.
Next morning the man returned with a packet of palm leaves and a bag of cowrie shells. He sat on the floor, moved the shells with a singular speed, kept consulting his little booklet, and gave all the phases of the eclipse in less than three quarters of an hour.
Le Gentil checked the numbers against the French Ephemerides. They matched. He gave him more eclipses. Same result.
No pen. No paper. The shells were the counters, laid out on the ground.
The rules were verses recited from memory while working, the way Europeans use formulas. Once a step was done it was wiped away. And they rarely made mistakes, he writes.
Nana Moutou agreed to teach him, under strict secrecy. 4 months of hard work, he said, if the Frenchman had the aptitude.
Lessons at 4.30 every evening. Le Gentil changed interpreters 3x and got nowhere. In the end it took him more than a month, an hour a day, to compute a lunar eclipse.
His verdict: for lunar eclipses, the error in several he calculated never went > 25 minutes.

It’s been over a week now and @narendramodi or the @PMOIndia hasn’t denied/rejected the UP cabinet proposal to name the airport after Modi, while he is alive.
This proves the point that it was the PM all along who pressured Yogi to do this shit show. PATHETIC!
When a young life becomes so poisoned by hate that he plans to kill those he sees as different, it reflects our failure in nurturing the next generation. It is most important that we cultivate a sense of inclusion and work toward raising human consciousness. Our deep gratitude to those who acted promptly to prevent the Aurora attack. – Sg
The craziest thing happened to me in an interview yesterday.
I interviewed my first deep fake candidate. It took me a bit to catch on.
My coworker noticed his glasses looked off.... there was a second ghost frame smeared across his cheeks. He'd been running a live face filter the whole interview
So I asked him to put his hand in front of his face. He put it up right NEXT to his face lol, never in front. Asked again, still wouldn't do it
He looked a little different from his linked in and his github (which I wont link here) hiring and interviewing is so ridiculous now.
In the days of AI we're going to have to be more careful.. and forced to move to in person interviews.
