When it comes to building massive highways and flyovers that will only increase pollution and temperatures there is no environmental destruction for these hypocrites. For them railways that require only much less resources and will solve pollution and congestion are destructive!

How did the many family audiences that watched Kantara with their kids explain these to the children, I wonder. Full article, from Indian Express: bit.ly/3iglr1D

Apparently this is to 1. Facilitate crew change. Then just change the crew, not the bus! 2. Make Angamaly a "transit hub". Do they even know what a transit hub is?? 3. Reduce the number of buses on the road! The entire premise of public transport is to run MORE buses, not less!!

Von Neumann had an interesting style of dealing with people, parts of which are worth emulating.

A simple question to ask yourself before you say something in response to someone else: Is what I’m about to say going to help the situation? It doesn’t matter if you’re right. If your comment doesn’t improve the situation, don’t say it.

I’ve hit upon a new analogy for DEI work that relates to doing research on Paxos, so I thought I would share. In my experience, one reason that doing Paxos research is so hard is that most people do not have enough Paxos expertise to make progress on open problems. 1/n

It seems like Kochi metro is discouraging metro patronage by introducing parking fee for metro passengers. It was told to me by a random staff from a pvt company claiming to take over parking area of metro at Thykoodam station. Bold move! @MetroRailKochi @kochinext

Rather than complaining about high petrol prices, complain about inadequate public transport infrastructure.

Thinking again about this excellent article - the bane of the UNIX philosophy. "Every tool is small and does one thing perfectly!" Amazing, now look at all these convoluted scripts trying to piece them together to deal with the complexity of the real-world tasks.
