Just finished reading this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_War:_A_Scenario For those who have an interest in these matters, a lot of the stuff in there will not be new. However even I was struck and horrified by the speed at which the events start unfolding. Launch on warning policies me...

Chetakji, The Americans are getting desperate I think. They see the start of dollar hegemony crumbling. Tariff weaponisation has resulted in countries signing FTAs leaving out the US. They have no levers of note with China. That leaves next tier countries like India or EU to bully. Of these they fan...

Pappu complaining in parliament that tariffs have gone up from 3 to 18%. Does he not realise that the era of 3% tariffs disappeared a year ago with the advent of Trump weaponising tariffs?

Probably does, but we are all about sound bytes rather than scholarship these days

Tanaji

It is infuriating that in Parliament you can make all sorts of baseless accusations and not have any repercussions. Pappu has made this into an art form…

AmberG : is it possible to provide a brief semi technical explanation of what is decoupling and how it differs from an underground test?

Purely out of curiosity, does Dr Kakodkar or his relatives have a financial interest in the company or associated company that produces ANEEL fuel bundles?

This Mother Teresa cult has never been properly exposed. The least that should be done is to revoke the BharatRatna and PadmaShri for her.

I wonder what happens in Maharashtra now. While the state government is not in danger, its likely that Ajit Pawar MLAs and other elected representatives of various bodies will revert back to Sharad Pawar. This may cause some changes in some bodies…

Chetakji,

You have summed up what I have heard as well. There was absolutely no reason for this circular - no one was asking for it except the usual jitni azadi utna haq gang. But now the cat is out of the bag…

BJP has let the commie gang run loose for far too long in education.

Has anyone being following the UGC affair? In a nutshell, UGC has put out a circular that what is in essence the SC/ST act on campuses with strict punishments on violations.

A_Guptaji Perhaps we should take this to Kaveri thread. Do you know what amount was allocated to Kaveri in 2024-25?

Tanaji Sir, The Kaveri program was approved in 1984 and funds released in 1989. 37 years have elapsed since then. I think that is enough time for iterative development of Kaveri - provided the project was given enough funds and adequate infrastructure in the country for testing and development. Eve...

... Kanoji saab, One answer is that in each of the above examples, we iterated. We built a small KN cryo engine and then a bigger one. UPI was gradually scaled up.

Thanks AmberG for the post. Srinji, Isnt what you are saying mostly being followed? In the sense that VVER type are being used in addition to our PHWR design for electricity generation.

Rioting plays into Trump's hand - he can invoke the Insurrection Act with cause. (He is capable of invoking it without a clear cause, but with cause is always strengthens his case.) That’s my point: you are scr*wed either way, so one should protest. I guess my point is that the threshold for massiv...
