Bang on. Will cut everyone “to size” to make himself the tallest. At the cost of Indian cricket.

Sachin became Sachin because his coach wasn’t petty or egoist and allowed him to debut at the age of 16.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi sadly is dealing with a narcissist who has already eaten the careers of two cricketers in their Prime. #INDvsIRE

For decades, mathematicians could check if a number was prime, but only with a small chance of error/by taking a billion years.

In 2002, Prof. Manindra Agrawal (Currently Director of IIT Kanpur & a very very humble guy) & 2 students, Neeraj Kayal & Nitin Saxena, published a 9 page paper called "PRIMES is in P."

This was the 1st time in history anyone proved that determining if a number is prime is easy (polynomial) w/o relying on unproven assumptions.

When the paper was 1st released, it was so short & elegant that world class mathematicians initially thought it was a prank. It settled a problem that had been open since the time of the Greeks.

Neeraj Kayal & Nitin Saxena are now renowned researchers themselves (at Microsoft Research & IIT Kanpur respectively), and their AKS Test is a foundational pillar taught in every advanced cybersecurity course globally today.

We’ve identified industrial-scale distillation attacks on our models by DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax.

These labs created over 24,000 fraudulent accounts and generated over 16 million exchanges with Claude, extracting its capabilities to train and improve their own models.

Strange that the three podcast princes (Ferriss, Huberman, Friedman) who millions of young men turn to for advice on how to live and think are all single and childless, past the age of 40.

Water that was exposed to positive words — like “love” or “gratitude” — formed intricate, stunningly beautiful crystals.

But water exposed to negativity — words like “hate” or “fool” — produced chaotic, fractured, ugly formations.

The difference was undeniable.

@Rajiv1841 While I do agree with you on Gambhir, under Dravid ICT actually gave one of the best WC performances - judging on the basis of just one match is a bit too harsh, no?

A proof that XKCD 1944 is correct an there is more gold in the Sun than water in the oceans

The mass of the Sun is 1.989 × 10³⁰kg. There's 1 × 10⁻⁷% of gold, which accounts for 1.989 × 10²¹kg. There is 1.26×10²¹kg water on Earth, 98% is in the oceans, i.e. 1.235 × 10²¹ kg.

Crazy story of the week:

The tragic incident surrounding the Netflix adaptation of the "Three Body Problem" series is not widely known among its fans. Lin Qi, a visionary and brilliant young billionaire, acquired the rights to the "Three Body Problem" with the ambition of creating various products from it. He enlisted the expertise of Xu Yao, a distinguished lawyer, appointing him CEO to spearhead the business operations, including securing a deal with Netflix—a feat for which Lin compensated Xu with a salary of nearly $3 million. However, Xu's performance did not meet expectations beyond the Netflix agreement, leading Lin to reduce his salary to $750,000 and bring in additional executives to enhance business operations. Xu, retaining his CEO title, was reportedly infuriated by this demotion and further aggravated by not being credited as a producer on the Netflix project.

Driven by revenge and inspired by the TV show "Breaking Bad," Xu meticulously planned Lin's murder. He purchased 160 phones and established a company in Japan to acquire the necessary chemicals for his scheme, testing them on animals. Xu then poisoned Lin and his colleagues, disguising the lethal substances as an advanced probiotic. Lin unsuspectingly consumed it and soon after was hospitalized, where it was immediately apparent he had been poisoned, though the specific toxins were unknown. The police quickly suspected Xu, who, had he disclosed the nature of the poisons (later found to have included exotic substances such as pufferfish poison and mercury and at least three other poisons), could have saved Lin's life. However, he chose not to, ensuring Lin's demise. Just a few days ago, as the show was premiering globally, Xu was finally sentenced to death for the murder of Lin and attempted murder of two other colleagues, who survived but with lifelong injuries.

Lin Qi, credited as an executive producer on the Netflix project posthumously, passed away at the age of 39. RIP 🕯️
