Re: Technologies useful for Indian problems

Why shouldn't the poo power work in India? Many small villages already use gober gas plants which is cow dung. Also, we need to start thinking long term. For example, if we start putting the organic waste into big dumpsite, cover it up and then put pipes on the top, within few years, we will have me...

Re: Project 75I- It Begins

True, you need big reactors for bigger boats, my suggestion was only for smaller diesels. All this MESMA/AIP stuff is waste. Get high Li-on Batteries and a mini reactor. Have enough juice to go 30/35 knots for a 300/400 kms or tactical maneuvers on battery and go for ever at 5-10 knots on the 3 MW....

Re: Possible Indian Military Scenarios - XIII

I agree with Vivek on this one. When the enemy has thrown the rules out of the window, if you still hold on to your rules, you will be destroyed. Therefore, in a war, all rules get thrown out, specifically when the enemy has already done that. Soldiers that fight on the front line, who have had fami...

Has anyone looked at this article? Would this not be perfect for Dry Indian conditions (specifically in Kutch, Gujarat Area)?

Once I had my numbers for a certain states, I would remove few seats or add a few. I also went conservatively in the south. With ...

Regarding 5forty3.in. From what I read on his tweets, he is already revising the BJP vote share down because what he is seeing in data is mind boggling. Meaning - he is seeing such a huge percentage of vote share for BJP, that he is thinking that it is not possible. So he is erring on side of cautio...

I was prepping for a marathon last year that I had to give up (got upto 17 miles in training, and fell ill 2 weeks before the marathon). I always get hungry around mile 10. I usually eat fruits, such as ...

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India

BJP's officials (those that won and those that lost) need to visit every one of their constituencies and thank the people for their vote. Whether they lost or won, does not matter. As they say in the US, coddle the people and they will remember you. Even your enemy will take note of that. Remind peo...

Narendra Modi, first and foremost loves Law and Order in his state. To this effect, Gujarat state has approved the appeal to increase the punishment for Babu Bajarangi to Death (from life imprisonment). For Maya Kodnani, they have kept the life imprisonment. No one who is guilty, shall go free, does...

From what I read in local newspapers, Chinese soldiers have left DBO. They packed up and left (even though the 4th flag meeting did not succeed). If it is true, then they just showed that they can come and leave at any time they want. Indians cannot do anything. They also wanted to see our reaction ...
