SAVE OUR BANDIPUR WILDLIFE
=========================
"Bandipur belongs to the tigers and elephants at night. Not to speeding vehicles."

The ~20-25 km stretch of the national highway cuts directly through its core area, home to tigers, elephants, leopards, gaurs, and many other species.
The night ban (9 PM to 6 AM on private vehicles, with limited buses) was imposed in 2009–2010 after severe roadkill problems.

March 9, 2010: Karnataka High Court delivered a detailed final judgment upholding the night ban. The court recognized the "right to life" of wildlife under Article 21 of the Constitution, noted the availability of alternative (though longer) routes, and emphasized the severe roadkill data and ecological importance of Bandipur.

August 8, 2019: Supreme Court upheld the Karnataka High Court’s 2010 ruling in petitions (including from Kerala). It reaffirmed the ban’s necessity for wildlife protection in the tiger reserve, while allowing limited night buses and suggesting alternative route development.

Core Reasoning on Wildlife Protection and Right to Life:
"Bandipur Tiger Reserve and National Park is a very important and echo sensitive wildlife habitat... Two National Highways cut through the Park... The nocturnal travel ban, which presupposes the right to life of wildlife, cannot be seen as illegitimate when there is another road to travel."

Not sure why again and again the same discussion.
Illa [ಇಲ್ಲ, ഇല്ല] means No in both Kannada and Malayalam.

@jasveer10 @durov this is the exact take babus in ministry of IT would have taken, but absence of second order thinking is more common in our babudom than scammers on Telegram. But when you are so ingrained to live with a nanny state, removing access to infra is your default disciplinary stick.

Seriously, what is BWSSB doing in Indiranagar? Is there a plan? An end goal? Who is paying for the revenue losses to the businesses that have been rendered completely inaccessible by this apathy? Does anyone know where will they be digging tomorrow?

[Tejasvi Surya @Tejasvi_Surya]

Bengaluru is for people, not just vehicles. We need safe, pothole-free roads, continuous footpaths and better public spaces.

Bengaluru is for People, Not just Vehicles.

We Demand

✅ Clean Pothole-free roads
✅ Walkable Footpaths
✅ Open Streets for Pedestrians at least once a month

Let’s support #OpenStreetsBengaluru, once a month, for walking, cycling and community activities, on select main roads.

Join the movement. Our goal is to collect at least 5 lakh signatures from citizens who believe Bengaluru deserves better.

Let's take this petition to the Chief Minister of Karnataka and GBA Chief Commissioner.

@Tejasvi_Surya Was glad to spot you there and hear for the cause of pedestrians and plans for making space for runners in the city. Following up on your Change petition!

i urge the world to bring back the read, write, own

[venture anthropologist @0xBalloonLover]

anthropic won't let you use fable for biology, chemistry, ai research, or anything that accelerates human progress. that makes it the perfect tool for developing blockchains

[Shubham Mishra @shbhmmshr]

yep, there is that matter of compute and sample efficiency and yes what he said.

[kache @yacineMTB]

wrong. it's simulators

[Shubham Mishra @shbhmmshr]

didn't click on article for its most likely paywalled, but it's most likely the relatability a generation with its situation and them self-assessing themselves being better and hard-working and still not crossing the line their parents expected them to - the just unlucky tribe

I have far too many unposted drafts of posts and replies of opinions I'd want to put out on. 9 of 10 things typed are drafted and/or deleted.

I wish more of us would do that. I don't think more than 1 out of 10 of our word spaghetti deserves attention or an audience.

[Shubham Mishra @shbhmmshr]

no

Brother put that guy in incharge who is singularly responsible for an acute food and energy crisis across over half the planet . . that evil meter was definitely calibrated in the mirror

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Same here.

By way of background for those who care, I spent a lot of time last week with senior members of the Anthropic team to understand what they do to ensure Claude is good for humanity and was impressed.

Everyone I met was highly competent and cared a great deal about doing the right thing. No one set off my evil detector. So long as they engage in critical self-examination, Claude will probably be good.

After that, I was ok leasing Colossus 1 to Anthropic, as SpaceXAI had already moved training to Colossus 2.

@nikitabier there are many of us who use X as news app but the feed now is way too video creator biased, which is distracting and doesn't delight at all. Would really help to get tuning of text vs media on feeds.
Also please please bring back dim mode, white on black halation is terrible.

i actually don't want this "but you don't review compiler output either" meme to die.

it's the perfect signal for being immediately able to ignore someone in this space.

Apple devices are probably the only odd case of 95% finished underbaked products that dominate market disproportionately. Not one other product would have made a version 2 let alone 26 with this travesty, and yet somehow this cult grows on.

[Shubham Mishra @shbhmmshr]

move over BASIC . . we are HIGH now.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI.

AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

The biggest downside of new capabilities of automation harness with improved language models is all that time saved directed towards philosophisizing on where we are headed.

[Shubham Mishra @shbhmmshr]

Autonomous coding tools unfortunately may suffer the same cold shoulders of over-regulations as autonomous driving cars. Probably one mission critical outage away for a major hedgefund or in the wall street.
