A #TVSeries with gorgeous scenes of #Florence & #Tuscany set during the #Renaissance with masters of #art popping in? Yes, please! 😍 Sadly, #Medici is on #Netflix only till 30-Apr (why?). Acting: So-so Cast-changes: WTF? Plots: Nice #Italy #History #Pope #SandroBoticelli
Still wondering why this ~55 year old #song is trending now: “Gulabi Aankhen, Jo Teri Dekhi” [1970], Mohammad Rafi, The Train (youtu.be/I5t894l5b1w). Heard it performed live in three different cities (Bangalore, Ramnagar, Rishikesh) across #India in just the past month.

@pramode_ce @krsree It’s bizarre to say this about trig. More esoteric areas of math have real world applications, but they’re harder to see. You can literally see trig problems everywhere. Medieval navigators and astronomers were doing trig centuries before the equal sign was invented.
A tip for new academics. You will meet 1 or 2 colleagues who don’t seem to work as hard as everyone else. They don’t do open days, extra marking, or additional teaching. They say no a lot - like a LOT. Baby, do not resent them, learn from them. These people are goddamn geniuses

I wonder if I am the minority or majority of users that has decided that the only apps that I allow notifications from are messaging (ones that I still trust to not spam using them). Food delivery & ridesharing apps abused this trust for good by pushing marketing notifications.
I am not a fan of best practice docs that assume the best practice is so obvious that one does not need to explain why it is best. Why is the first option "bad"? What is the reason you go for ORM? Why does this reason apply here too?

Yes. This iMessage thing is ridiculous, dear American friends. In messaging US did everything wrong since the start, paying even to receive SMSs when we had free plans for years. Use a fucking economically inclusive messaging platform and don't fall in stupid corporate traps. Thx
WhatsApp vs iMessage is the new metric vs imperial. The entire world uses WhatsApp, save a few people who are iPhone-clutching Americans or from a country where WhatsApp is banned (like China). Yet iMessage users will actually claim it's objectively better, just like they will…
