Can you imagine a 2-hour conversation between a VC and an AI researcher on AI and LLMs entirely in Sanskrit? We just recorded one. Could this be the world's first technical podcast in Sanskrit? Can't wait to share it. Here is a raw glimpse

NEVER EVER DO CAKE CUTTING BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS OF YOUR KIDS IN ORPHANAGES. It’s like showing off your dancing skills in front of crippled people. Go and donate money, food and new clothes without any celebrations.

It wasn't sex. A young couple were reportedly executed for simply kissing near a mosque in Saudi. No legal representation. No due process. Bangladesh was not informed. Not rape. Not murder. Not arson. Just two young people in love. And the world watches in silence. The wealthy, the powerful, the self-proclaimed liberals, the human rights champions.
#BREAKING : Saudi Arabia Executes Two Bangladeshi Nationals Over ‘Having Sex’ Inside Mecca Mosque Saudi Arabia has announced the execution of two Bangladeshi nationals convicted of committing what authorities described as a “sexual act” inside a mosque in the holy city of Mecca. In a statement issued on Wednesday, the Saudi Ministry of Interior identified the individuals as Nazrul Islam Abdul Basir and Siti Akhtar. According to the ministry, security authorities arrested the two following the incident. They were subsequently charged after an investigation and later executed, the statement said. #SaudiArabia #Mecca #Bangladesh #Sex
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Saudi authorities confirmed executing Nazrul Islam Abdul Basir and Siti Akhtar on Oct 14 for an "immoral act" inside a Mecca mosque. The video is unrelated footage of pilgrims at the Kaaba, not the incident. english.ajel.sa/saudi-arabia/9… khaleejtimes.com/world/gulf/sau…

This movie's plot is so regressive. Would've been apt (wrongly so) in the 80s not in this age. Fed up of failed pan India, ambitious project, has become a hit. Not a bad effort though.

The Attorney General has still given his consent to initiate contempt proceedings. The Supreme Court Bar Association on Thursday evening filed a petition with the AG’s consent.

Honey is sugar, nothing else! Keep it for the bees, who need it because they buzz around a lot. Lazy ass humans need not delude themselves that honey has some magical goodness while tickling their sweet tastebuds.
We can make ghee, paneer, curd at home. We cannot make honey. So I have to trust the label. We tried all the major brands available: Dabur, Saffola, Patanjali, etc. I even paid extra for glass bottles, thinking glass meant quality. Honey from these major brands looked like plain sugar syrup to me. Not a lab result, just what I saw. This Aug, FSSAI ordered Dabur to stop selling products, honey included, with "100% pure/natural" claims it called unverifiable. So I am asking you: which honey do you use at home? Beekeepers, farm sellers, any brand that shows a lab report - please tell me.

April 2010: In a Naxali attack, 76 CRPF personnel were killed. Then Home Minister @PChidambaram_IN had offered his resignation. Guess what? BJP opposed his resignation offer because it believed it would send a wrong message, be seen as a victory for Naxalis and prove disastrous for the country. They literally called a press conference and requested Chidambaram not to resign. Because the country was more important than politics. This was the standard set by BJP in opposition. Now compare it to Congress as opposition. They're even ready to bed terrorists, foreign powers, start a civil war, etc., just because they want to overthrow the Modi government...

BengLur janathe after enjoying top quality dosè in 200 different places would still be in the lookout for that 201st place because no amount of good dosè is enough of good dosè.

Ketaki Chitale was arrested in 2022 for sharing a poem allegedly criticizing Sharad Pawar. She spent over 40 days in jail & had 22 FIRs filed against her. Remember her?
Deeply concerned by reports that Abhijeet Dipke, Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka remain in custody, with no warrant shown and no access to lawyers or contact with their families. Abhijeet’s grandmother has passed away, yet he has reportedly not even been allowed a call home. This is unacceptable. We demand their immediate release without further delay. Abhijeet must be allowed to be with his family at this time of grief. @HMOIndia @AmitShah @AmitShahOffice

Apologies to Navaneet. I thought this was Dhruv Rathee.
A Greek Lover with an Indian Courtesan in a Sanskrit Satire! The ~5th-century Padmaprābhṛtakam mentions a Greek man named Irima with an Indian courtesan named Tāmbūlasenā. A hilarious exchange ensues, brimming with clever double meanings, sarcasm, and mischief!
