This is the third or fourth wave of drone attacks. I know Pakistan is pretty stupid but could there be a sinister reason behind this? Is there perhaps a bigger attack planned by them? Are they they assessing our SAM sites? Are they just filling the skies up so it may lead to a friendly fire by our ...

Unbelievable few days. Feels like the beast is being released. Jai Hind!

One major difference from Uri/Balakot: videos of the strike have already circulated on SM. Going to be much harder for the idiots to deny it this time around "Attack was initiated without violating Pak sovirginity and only 5 people died. Pakistan 1 - India 0" Sigh you are correct sir… wil...

Thanks, replied - looking forward!

chaitanya

That is truly fascinating... any way to get in touch with you?

chaitanya

These readings sound interesting Bala and RCase. Thanks for sharing. RCase, does one get the reading done if you cannot visit?

Pratyush-ji where are you seeing this?

Is there a reliable source for the above statements?

If it were true submariners should have a “negative biological age”, whatever that means. Also, all the people living in higher altitudes should die earlier.

If true, this factory will also be the first to be targeted after hostilities break out…

Hi Sanman,

Do you know what problems in machine learning have a quantum advantage?

chaitanya

Maybe this is a stupid question, but in the ‘TOT’ will there be any know-how transfer on production technologies? Meaning automation methods, qc, robotics, etc? The reason I ask is, sure maybe the latest materials technology, etc. won’t be transferred, but is there anything lacking in manufacturing ...

Thanks for the help!

Any links to parliament ceremony?

chaitanya

Thanks for the info Deans and ks_sachin. Things make more sense now… the lack of ‘pilot initiative’ makes it sound like RuAF treats its fighters almost like intelligent missiles

chaitanya

Interesting, so did Syria represent a deviation from their typical doctrine? It seemed like there RuAF was bombing many ground targets in support… what’s the thinking behind this? What is the AF supposed to be used for?

chaitanya

Hi Deans, Thanks for the detailed analysis! Any idea why the RuAF has been missing in action (or so it seems)? Seeing videos of trench warfare using drones dropping little grenades makes me wonder why a 500kg bomb isn't being used instead. Is Russia worried about the SAM/MANPAD threat or do they thi...

chaitanya

Great article, barring the obligatory ‘sectarian violence’ and condescension. It got me thinking that the GOI should work with PLI and foreign manufacturers to market ‘green manufacturing’. With all this renewable power coming online, one can sell things like ‘clean aluminum’ etc. to other countries...

Many forumites are painting a picture where Russia is backed into a corner economically with all these sanctions and new ones being considered like blocking dns servers and whatnot. However, it seems to me that Putin does have many retaliatory options to severely impact the west Financially without ...

chaitanya

Interesting, thanks for that information! The last point about the wholesale dumping of cheap EVs from China is a great point. India needs to go towards as much energy independence as possible. I do not believe India has much in the way of lithium

chaitanya

^ Mortji, on this last point, how economical is the ‘battery swap’ concept that the current budget is trying to push? Do you know what kind of batteries they are going for?

chaitanya

OT maybe but NYT and Bloomberg both have extremely negative headlines for budget. The Bloomberg guy called Andy Mukherjee seems to be on a 24x7 crusade against Modi/India. No worries. Andy & Suraj are fast friends. :rotfl: They are upset because each year it becomes harder and harder to talk ab...

Rakeshji, thanks for your response. From many years of reading the posts here I realize acoustic minimization is the primary objective, but I thought what about masking it altogether (like in stealth ac). After I typed my question I realized a few things: 1) A Luneburg lens type passive solution won...

chaitanya

This might be a dumb idea, but is there a "Luneburg lens" equivalent for naval ships? Wouldn't it be useful if in peacetime the acoustic signature could be changed or altered significantly enough to avoid a positive ID in wartime?

chaitanya

Au contraire, he is making it easier for the BJP to start talking about reforming the first-past-the-post system. It will turn out to be another brilliant self goal for the INC. Is there discussion to reform first-past-the-post? If so, RaGa is an even bigger idiot... any idea what is in discussion?...

Governments should not be allowed to control internet infrastructure at all. What if congress is in power and they ban this site or some anti-congress site they don't like. Agreed that congress having this kind of power could be scary. Any penalty should be sanctioned by judges, not the government,...

Hi Gurus, Just had an idea - instead of banning Twitter (or any company violating Indian law), what if it is penalized by throttling access to the site? In other words, GoI reserves the right to remove net neutrality for any company violating Indian laws, and in fact, it reserves the right to make i...

Mods, sorry for the OT - will remove the post after it’s seen. Dhyana, your posts are very informative on the science of the vaccine.

Hi Titash, I'm 100% baniya and have family members who span the spectrum! One cousin is into import/export of housewares and refuses to innovate on even that, while another builds automobile diagnostics rigs and is doing R&D to improve those and export them. I have many stories of true baniyagir...

chaitanya

Its a chicken and egg issue. While I understand csaurabh's frustration, it makes no sense to blame baniyas, as they are no different than businessmen anywhere else. Right now the 'baniyas' are being smart and using labor arbitrage to their advantage. Even the government is exploiting low-tech approa...

brar_w, as always, thanks for the very insightful posts! Has there been any analysis on how such swarms would fare when targets are spoofed? For example, by creating physical decoys as the Chinese seem to be employing near the LAC. electronic decoys seem to be more ideal, and to me, would seem to be...

^ I'd like to point out that many posters have discussed this scenario: a long drawn-out confrontation with attrition warfare lasting weeks with the Indian MIC failing to keep up with the Chinese. Let's assume that happens. However, one aspect is missed in these analyses: by week 2 India would have ...

Hi Suraj and RaviB, Thanks so much for your posts, they have been very informative. I'd like to add one thing about the Mandate of Heaven - if I recall correctly from my history classes, Not really a problem from an Indian perspective.

No, its not about beatings, its about perspective. I do not disagree with you that they have contributed more than most, but it seems like there are significant administrative hurdles to getting anything implemented. We see frustration everywhere, but there seems to be more of the same 'chalta hai' ...
