Remarkable comments.
1. Condolences to the departed.
2. Advise the living to avoid crowded places.
3. Look at the future because Dussehra and Diwali are also coming.
Truly deep acknowledgement of grief, groundbreaking contribution to crowd safety, and hope for the future.

The first time I wondered if AI may ever be conscious was when a researcher spoke to me of how “algorithms can be penalised”. This, so it learns better. It was very mathematical then. Much water was passed under the bridge since. (Thread👇 ) @rmnth @MoleShrivastava

The real achievement of a political leader is to have supporters who will defend everything he does. The real tragedy is when those supporters begin to believe that defending him is the same as thinking independently.

Incredibly sophisticated scam here. Comes as a text message.
Your registered vehicle number is correct.
Tells you there’s a fine for a traffic violation.
Tried to spoof the mParivahan app with a link to pay.
Click on it and your device gets hijacked.
Or you end up getting scammed.
This is despite telcos (like @airtelindia) are working to flag this as scam.
People still get conned.

Glad that alerts from @MTPHereToHelp @IndianCERT are out in the public domain.

But more people must know.

Something is moving on X India. I cannot name it yet. That bothers me more than the obituaries.
I have been lurking long enough to know when a room goes quiet. This one did.
Journalists, founders, late afternoon arguments on politics that would go late into the night.
And then, suddenly, everyone started to post less. I don't think that room is coming back.
And yet the temperature appears to have changed. Not louder. Not friendlier. Just different. As if the people who still think in sentences have started sitting down again, without announcing it.
Is this a dying platform? Or is it that a smaller room is learning a new use?
