- Harvard Racial Bias: According to school policy, Asian-American males living in rural states need to score a 1370 on the PSAT to get a letter. White males, however, only need a 1310. "That's race discrimination plain and simple".
- Yet, rich Indians continue to support them:
- Only 10% of farmers gain from loan waivers: Some farmers know when elections are due. Before that, they take loans. They then ask their farmer unions for loan waivers and the political party who shouts first about a loan waiver (gets the votes).
- Farm-loan waivers - waste of time and money: “The percentage of farmers availing bank loans is not even 50%. So, you are spending lakhs and crores of rupees and not even half of the farmers are benefiting. In some of the states, not even 25% of farmers avail institutional credit”.
- Bruhi Mukundethi : IndianRaga Chicago Advanced Labs:
- Shared Mobility Is Cheaper: The car you just bought might be the last one you’ll own. Folks living in urban and suburban centers are already shifting away from buying a second car in order to get around.
- MIPS Goes Open Source: Allows users to access “the most recent versions of the 32-bit and 64-bit MIPS ISA free of charge — with no licensing or royalty fees.”

- Plants don’t like being touched: A plant can’t flee threats, unlike mobile organisms. Instead, they have a highly sensitive threat-response system—like a plant’s version of an immune system

What should India do about #huawei? My piece in @Openthemag suggests a) they are a major threat in 5G b) India must step up its electronics game c) trump is bullying China using its own tactics and they don't know how to respond ๐. This is a watershed https://t.co/padpbedMwH— เคฐाเคीเคตः เคถ्เคฐीเคจिเคตाเคธः (@RajeevSrinivasa) December 17, 2018
