They can't go on looting my nation

I was some days before not so positive about Jan Lokpal movement. Because personally I didn't like the way things were happening and democracy was made to act. I didn't like the candle lightening just for craze (and not vote at all!) and someone asking govt. to do what he says. Also I didn't like media and people looking at this issue as the only issue of national interest and everything else is good and okay. I didn't like the media staying calm on other issues like farmers suicides, poverty and many others and just en-cashing this TRP-full drama. But I now have understood why they needed to do it this way. I still don't like some of the above stated issues, but yes I would love to see A STRONG lokpal/Janlokpal bill coming into existence to eradicate the corruption and also to show every political party that they can't go on looting my nation and we still exist.
Also I would like to request my friends who are concerned about change in Constitution. Nor this or any other government has followed what Dr. Ambedkar had said. So let's not worry about that. Our democratic and secular values are still strong and we shall strive to keep them strong. We should also take care that no communal organizations and political parties make a use of this issue for political benefits. But let's think twice and be on right side NOW.
Otherwise, our situation will be like :


"First they (Nazi) came for the communists,  and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the trade unionists,  and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for me  and there was no one left to speak out for me."

आपण महाराष्ट्राच्या संस्कृतीचे अजूनही खरंच पाईक आहोत कि भरकटलोत ?

महाराष्ट्र दिनाच्या सगळ्यांना शुभेच्छा. तसं ज्याला आज आपण महाराष्ट्र म्हणतो, त्याचा हा आधुनिक जन्म दिवस. महाराष्ट्र कधी पासून अस्तित्वात असेल? म्हणजे इथली संस्कृती, आपण जे वागतो, जगतो, बोलतो, राहतो वगैरे वगैरे. कधी पासून हे सगळं असं असावं? याचं उत्तर आपल्या सारख्या सामान्यांपेक्षा हा ज्या कोणत्या विषयाचा विषय असेल त्या विषयाच्या निष्णातांना जास्त चांगलं माहित असेल. तरी, आपला एक सामान्य माणूस म्हणून या भूमीवर अधिकार आहे आणि त्याच अधिकाराने आपण आपला एक अंदाज लावू शकतो. म्हणजे ज्ञानेश्वर-नामदेव इथे आपल्याला या मराठी राज्याची - महाराष्ट्राची - सुरुवात झाली असावी, असा अंदाज लावता येईल.म्हणजे आजच्या आपल्या मराठी म्हणता येईल अशा संस्कृतीची सुरवात तिथून झाली असं आपण समजू शकतो. किंवा मला जे मांडायचं त्या साठी ते सोयीचं आहे म्हणून समजा हवं तर! पण मीच कशाला वारकरी साहित्यातच संत बहिणाबाईंनी लिहून ठेवलयं - संतकृपा झाली । इमारत फळा आली ॥ १ ॥ ज्ञानदेवें रचिला पाया । उभारिलें देवालया ॥ २ ॥ नामा तयाचा किंकर । तेणें रचिलें तें आवार ॥ ३ ॥ जनार्दन एकनाथ । खांब दिधला भागवत ॥ ४ ॥ तुका झालासे कळस । भजन करा ...

Is Higher Education a Bubble? A view ...

Peter Thiel founder PayPal and now a Venture Capitalist puts his thought on the education system. Looks his thoughts are biased to his  experiences, but this view towards education is not completely wrong when the education system doesn't produce the quality resources. The situation in the India is similar and may be the bauble will burst one day. Need to be careful. Education is a bubble in a classic sense. To call something a bubble, it must be overpriced and there must be an intense belief in it. Housing was a classic bubble, as were tech stocks in the ’90s, because they were both very overvalued, but there was an incredibly widespread belief that almost could not be questioned — you had to own a house in 2005, and you had to be in an equity-market index fund in 1999. Probably the only candidate left for a bubble — at least in the developed world (maybe emerging markets are a bubble) — is education. It’s basically extremely overpriced. People ar...

NVDIA AI India

 NVDIA AI some Insights after digesting the event with some Diwali Delicacies! I had good time at the NVIDIA AI Summit held at the Jio World Center in Mumbai. It felt like every company working on artificial intelligence in India was present, either as an exhibitor or an attendee. Some sessions were so packed that people were standing, and even then, many more were trying to get in. Much of the discussion revolved around Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). These are undoubtedly central topics in AI today, drawing significant attention. I’m a huge admirer of RAG, but I still wouldn’t go as far as to say that “LLM (+RAG) is AI.” Although no one at the conference explicitly said this, it felt implied over the three days of sessions. I may be wrong, but I sensed a push for these technologies. Not just from NVIDIA, but from any hardware supplier, there’s an incentive to promote anything that drives demand for their solutions. NVIDIA’s GPUs are a backbo...
