वित्तीय घाटा को संतुलित रखते हुए अर्थव्यवस्था को गति देने के लिए सरकार लगभग सब कुछ कर रही है। पहले आयकर की सीमा बढ़ायी गयी और फिर रिज़र्व बैंक ने ब्याज दरों में कटौती की। अब जीएसटी का सरलीकरण करते हुए दरें कम कर दी गयीं। जनता भी बाजार में एसआइपी से निरंतर पैसे झोंक रही है। अब…
“The British created facts by asking questions… and these facts became the grounds on which they ruled.”
~ Bernard S. Cohn
What if the British Empire’s greatest weapon in India was not the musket or the railway, but the question?
India’s manufacturing dream hits a demographic wall.
Young workers resist factory life due to low pay, harsh routines, and better gig options.
Unless labour housing, skilling, and dignity of work are addressed, the farm-to-factory shift will remain stuck in theory.
if this doesn't already exist, i want to propose the opposite of great founder theory
the great saboteurs - people who with their outsized impact in a field end up distorting emerging systems or ideas, resulting in long-term misdevelopment or flattening of the field for ages

Fuck it. I'm going to start writing my own line by line translation of the entire Mbh. (based on Ganguly, Debroy)

Happy International Mother Language Day! It has been two years since we started diving into the treasure trove that is South Asian literature and it has been a delight. Here is a compilation of our favourite nuggets of desi writing for you.
Ambedkar is provocative but interesting. Manusmriti is medieval but interesting. The Selfish Gene makes you think. Gita. Ramcharitamanas. The God Delusion. Marx. Beauvoir. Ample utility in reading ideas, even if offensive.
Set your stupid politics aside. Avoid selectivity. Read.

You are seeing some pics of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in this thread.
Want to establish how mentally and physically fit he was.
These two pics are from his Submarine journey from Germany to Japan.
He was well read, well travelled, and well styled.
