भविष्य के बारे में इतना भी नहीं सोचों कि वर्तमान कबड़ जाए

"If the Minnesota resistance has an overarching ideology, you could call it 'neighborism'—a commitment to protecting the people around you, no matter who they are or where they came from. The contrast with the philosophy guiding the Trump administration couldn’t be more extreme. Vice President Vance has said that “it is totally reasonable and acceptable for American citizens to look at their next-door neighbors and say, ‘I want to live next to people who I have something in common with. I don’t want to live next to four families of strangers.’” Minnesotans are insisting that their neighbors are their neighbors whether they were born in Minneapolis or Mogadishu. That is, arguably, a deeply Christian philosophy, one apparently loathed by some of the most powerful Christians in America." https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/01/the-neighbors-defending-minnesota-from-ice/685769/

@Colgrace Welcome 👋

@Ryan maybe they are trying to save money by switching to old models.

If Vijay had "agreed" (after all that incessant pressure) to join BJP as an ally for Tamil Nadu elections, his Jana Nayagan would have already released, he could have been celebrating Pongal with Modi in Delhi, and Modi would have written a glowing review of the film that would have been published in all newspapers today.

@Ryan any idea why it happens?

The fight has always been between “have a lot” and “have some”, not between the rich and the poor.

All revolutions have had the same story if you look into them carefully, whether religious, like Yeshua and Mohammed, or ideological, like communism in Russia or China.

Claude's code has become dumb. Not sure what has happened, but it's not able to do the same thing which it did two weeks earlier, and that also after reading that code.

As I sit down to reflect on 2025, the silence in the room feels very different from the silence before a concert begins. The pre-concert silence is full of nervous anticipation. The silence at the end of a long year of building is vastly different; it is full of echo.

It echoes with the sound of a dozen cities applauding, with thousands and thousands of lines of computer code, and with the quiet determination of a team trying..

The melancholy have the best sense of the comic, the opulent often the best sense of the rustic, the dissolute often the best sense of the moral, and the doubter often the best sense of the religious.

@tokyo_0 Yes, you are right. Learning about some things could be like that. I tried translating a thought from Bhojpuri about overall learning, and I think in English it sounds like talking about each individual's knowledge rather than the overall understanding.

@arturN

Knowing: is knowledge about something.

The thought I translate is that learning is not tied to a single item or subject, but is more like a meta-topic, especially in a Philosophical context.

@arturN Sorry, when I wrote it, I didn't mean it in every context, just like language, computers, math, etc. Although after reading your reply just now, I am thinking, and I guess that's because of how I have translated this in English from my thoughts in the Bhojpuri language to start with.

Just checked the definition of these two words, "Learning", and "Knowing",

Learning: A process of acquiring new understanding, knowledge, behaviours, skills, values, attitudes, and preferences.

Very few people do this anymore. It's too risky. First of all, it's a hell of a responsibility to be yourself.

It's much easier to be somebody else or nobody at all.

If it feels fun, you are not learning anything. It’s just entertainment.

Real learning is hard, and uncomfortable.

परीक्षा देनें जा रहें हैं, या जंग लड़ने?

When God and Satan met, God said, “You see, humans have searched for me and figured out religion, and thus I win”

Satan replied, joking, “Yes, I see. And I have helped them make it their organisation”

मैं के टुटा हुवा सितारा हूँ,
क्या बिगाड़ेगी अंजुमन मेरा

दश्त मेरा ना ये चमन मेरा।
