Interesting experiment yesterday .
1 post thrashed Naming LLMs / AI in Sanskrit .
Another post on the existence of real NASA work on Sanskrit .
Both blew up . Both Sanatanis and anti Sanatanis are fighting in comments .
500k views .
This platform is built to polarise .
Let it burn bright.
Let it spread like wild fire straight into the hearts of every Indian.
Let it burn the chains of fear that tie us down.
Let it turn to ashes the hatred that poisons our hearts.
Let us be reforged in that fire to reclaim our nation from the evil that is eating into it's soul.
STORY | Delhi Ramlila to burn 30-foot 'cockroach' effigy alongside Ravan
A 30-foot-tall "cockroach" effigy will go up in flames alongside those of Ravan, Kumbhkaran, and Meghnad at a Ramlila in the national capital this year.

Unfortunately, we are being blocked by certain oligarchs in order to maintain their monopolistic chokehold on the Indian people. You can guess who they are …
This is a crime against the people of India!
India needs @Starlink 🇮🇳
• 11,256 of India’s listed villages still lacked 4G coverage as of May 2026.
• India had 1.093 billion internet subscriptions in March 2026, but only 440.87 million were rural. Rural subscription density was 48.31 per 100 people, compared with 126.80 in urban India.
• BharatNet had laid over 850,000 route-km of fibre and made about 221,000 Gram Panchayats service-ready. However, its Points of Presence were reported operational at only 80,472 Gram Panchayats in June 2026.
• Only 4.26% of India’s internet subscriptions were wired connections in March 2026. Starlink could give underserved communities another route to high-speed broadband.
• Starlink has already built 20 gateway sites in India, according to SpaceX Vice President of Starlink Business Operations Lauren Dreyer, speaking at India Mobile Congress today.
• Starlink says it has developed India-specific security controls designed to keep Indian user data within India.
• Its satellite network could bring high-speed internet to remote villages, mountains and islands where extending fibre or mobile networks is difficult.
• Better connectivity could help rural schools access online learning, clinics offer remote consultations and small businesses reach more customers. Starlink already supports education and healthcare in remote communities internationally.
• Portable Starlink terminals have supported disaster response around the world. They could give Indian emergency teams backup connectivity when floods, earthquakes or storms damage ground networks.
• Direct to Cell could also help ordinary 4G phones connect beyond tower coverage, subject to Indian approvals and mobile operator partnerships.
• The government itself identifies difficult terrain, low commercial viability and infrastructure constraints as reasons for remaining coverage gaps. This is exactly where Starlink could help India reach more people.
• India should complete the remaining clearances and spectrum allocation so Starlink can begin commercial service.
• SpaceX’s Vice President of Starlink Business Operations, Lauren Dreyer, said that Starlink is ready to help achieve Prime Minister Modi’s vision of 100% connectivity across India. She highlighted its potential to connect remote classrooms, support telemedicine and restore connectivity after disasters, adding, “With Starlink, people can get connected within minutes, not years.”
India’s hardest-to-reach communities deserve reliable internet too.

SIR: Form-7 applications already printed with Muslim voters’ details have now been reported in Belagavi, with BLOs saying they were pressured to sign forms seeking deletion of names of people they knew well, including the Booth Level Agent himself

They first went after print media to censor political caricatures. So the artists like @satishacharya choose social media to freely express through their art.
First, they started blocking one post at a time, and now they have blocked the entire account wholesale.
Governments will come and governments will go. Right's once snatched away in the name of 'national security' seldom get restored.

I've talked about this publicly before, but as my audience here grows, I think it is important for me talk about this again.
I have an oculo-dermal condition called Nevus of Ota. It's a pigmentation that is in your eye when you are born and then rapidly spreads to your skin when you hit puberty.
Not a lot of people even know such a thing exists, and a lack of this being seen in media is the reason I grew up hating the way I look.
My teen years were spent with people teasing me, calling me Harvey two face saying I got hit in the face, or just simply being shamed for looking different.
When I discovered makeup, I used it as an escape. I used to to feel "normal", and it was easier to wear makeup and defend that, than answer intrusive strangers asking "what's that blue green thing on your face"
The thing is, I've been dealing with this since I was 13 and as I get older (I'm 38 now) I have to admit that my acceptance of this condition is not complete. I am so much better now... But every now and then an intrusive person with zero claim to my life will body shame me, and for a moment I become the insecure teenager I once was.
Sharing this raw no makeup, no filters picture of me is hard because I see all the imperfections more than most people would even notice. I see my incredible skin but I also see the patchy pigmentation that beauty standards deem as something that needs fixing.
I have a lot of work to do on fixing my mindset and loving myself but I'm sharing this and being vulnerable today in the hope that anyone who feels less than confident about themselves understands that we all want to hide our insecurities and that's okay.... but we need to learn to love and accept ourselves.
I'm posting this for every single person who has Nevus of Ota and is trying to find their tribe so we can relate.
I'm writing this for 15 year old me, who felt so alone, because she felt ugly and didn't know that people would not care about this when they chose to love her and instead placed her entire self worth on the way she looked.
I'm writing this for every woman who is a victim of the patriarchal beauty standards that make us feel like we aren't enough.
Together, we will heal. ❤️

Two Election Commissioners objected to steps taken by poll panel. #ElectionCommission
Do not let your vote become a victim of the ECI's incompetence.
Nearly 1/3rd of Delhi's voters were removed in the revised voter rolls by the ECI.
And now, further 1/3rd of them have been sent notices.
And the list includes former chief minster Arvind Kejriwal and the current chief minster Rekha Gupta among others.
It's take you a minute, one search and you'll know which list your name ended up in. Find out now!

So I did a thing with Jev. Saw a few posts about training Jev to play video games. I figured, why not try to get Jev to play a song?
Found a piano version of Bella Ciao. Put it through a piano transcription model. That gave 1,353 notes with their timing and loudness. The timing and loudness became the fixed level layout. The pitch itself was hidden from Jev.
The task: At each note, Jev had to pick one of the 88 piano keys. And for each choice, it would get one of the following four feedbacks:
hit: the exact note
close: 1 semitone off
warm: 2–3 semitones off
miss: further away than that
Jev took, on average, about 7 tries per note to get it right on a keyboard with full 88 keys. It took 7,794 attempts to learn all 1,353 notes. Mostly because the rule required starting from the beginning for each missed note. Would have been a lot fewer attempts without this condition.
See the results!
The part that's blows my mind: It recreates the song without ever hearing it once!
After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI?
I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev
• 20-200x faster
• 40-400x cheaper (w/ output tokens free)
• Frontier composable intelligence optimized for decisions
AFAICT the shortest path to AI-based economic revolution
The sheer incompetence of @ECISVEEP is out there for our whole nation to see. They are so bad at their job, they can't even serve their masters well.
Here's the list of BJP leaders (to be) served notices under the voter demonetisation (SIR).
OUR FORMER VICE PRESIDENT and BJP leader Venkaiah Naidu made the list!
🤖 Made with AI
Mind you, all of these people will have their notices cleared, in all likelihood, by the end of today. As the Election Commission has been stating there is a VIP class of voters. Their notices get resolved without them getting off their couches. But you and I have to fight for our right to vote.
If you are voter in Karnataka or Telangana look for your name here datachutney.io/karnataka-sir… and ensure you retain your vote. And never forget what they are putting you through.
Lastly, I must say credit where it is due. At least the CEO of Karnataka and the CEO of Telangana have put out these lists, incidentally INC run states. The states like Maharashtra and Delhi haven't bothered.
Of course, open information means open scrutiny. And this chappan inch democracy, doesn't care about such silly things.
