sir, how you see a report by Forbes as below:

When statistical adjustments are used to convert the backward digit span results to full-scale IQ scores, Indian Americans place at about 112 on a bell-shaped IQ distribution, with white Americans at 100. 112 is the 79th percentile of the white distribution. For more context, consider that Ashkenazi Jews are a famously intelligent ethnic group, and their mean IQ is somewhere around 110.
There is nothing inevitable about immigration. Who immigrates each year is a policy decision, free to be modified at any time by Congress. Constructing new legislation is always difficult, but I propose a simple starting point for immigration selection: Anyone who can spell guerdon is in!

More 2,000 years in a single graphic
The Economist has developed its own infographics of 2,000 years of economic history with Mr Maddison's data. One in 2010, nicknamed "GDP since Jesus" charts just that (below, with commentary here). We encountered the same layout difficulties as Mr Cembalest, so chose a bar chart to distinguish specific years, and fiddled with the spacing of increments on the x-axis to designate missing chunks of time. The result is imperfect, but we did as much as possible to disclose, not camouflage, the imperfections. (In retrospect, we should have done more on the right-hand side of the chart, such as perhaps making the bar widths proportionately thinner….)
A second chart from last year (below, and with a commentary here) is both simple and startling. Among the points it presents is that in the first decade of the 21st century, the population of the world produced more economic output than in the first 19 centuries of the common era combined.

Did JP Morgan's striking chart on 2,000 years of economic history bungle the x-axis? Why yes, it did.

Anyway, here's something interesting;
ISI Kolkata's Prof Neena Gupta wins Infosys Prize 2024 for her exemplary work in the field of Mathematical Sciences
www.indiablooms.com
(couldn't really find a better news link, so this has to do)
Summarizing, Dr. Gupta solved the Zariski Cancellation Theorem, which had been unsolved for 70-ish years. She solved it 2014 but received the Infosys prize recently. This is a rather big achievement, and I'm surprised all the gun-ho chest-thumpers are not discussing it here. I think it might be the best news for India this whole year.
Here is she delivering a lecture on it:
And finally heres the paper (not the original, but from the same author):
Like it usually happens, mathematicians would pose problems and then die lol. This guy Oscar Zariski came with it, and from then on it had been a major unsolved problem in algebraic geometry.
So basically, how do you make a plane in 2d? with 2 lines. So if Q is a line the cross-product QxQ would make a plane. Lets call this plane Z. Its in 2d, so what would happen if we cross it once again with Q? The result would be a 3d plane. and so on to the nth dimensional space. Note that all these resultant spaces are affine in nature, which means that in the same plane there are pairs of lines which are parallel to each other but never meet. easy peasy. This was us going forward, the problem concerns going backwards. so if, lets say we are given a product DxQ which is a 3d plane, can we prove that the D here is a 2d plane? and so on going backwards to a singular point. This was understood to generally the case, Dr. Gupta proved that its not necessarily the case. the lady says, assume you are given a 5f space (not affine space, simple euclidean space) U (running out of letters lol), if you cross it with a line Q the result can be a 6 dimensional affine space. generally, given k dimensional euclidean space, crossed with a line Q, can give k+1 dimensional affice space.
(algebraic geometry is not my area of expertise so take my explanation with a grain of salt, also because I didn't understand the proof either lol.)
I like to hear from others about how they found reading the work and generally the work itself. I really think that the best investments India made early on was in the IITs (ik shes not from there, but same-same), alongside the keynesian reforms from the great Dr. Monmohan Singh. @VCheng @Joe Shearer and others.
It's 2am and I'm writing about an Indian math witch on a Pakistani forum. Need to get myself a life.

Stop bickering about lungi-wearing-pendu-looking-whip-lash warriors, it is embarrassingly stupid. lol.

Definitely beyond me, but I will submit it to a dear friend whose academic record was Physics, followed by Operations Research, followed by Game Theory, his PhD subject, followed by Economics, where he was practically ambushed by known and well-accepted economists and dragged away to write papers with them, kicking and screaming. He has lately been educating the rest of us on some of the finer aspects of mathematical development, within a group where the other members (@Nilgiri excepted) have had no crimes to stain their spotless record with regard to mathematics since the group started.
Thanks for the write-up. It will be useful.

No worries. Your post has enough structure and shape to brush those aside.
Incidentally, the Indian Statistical Institute was founded by Mahalanobis, and was roughly opposite us on the old IIMC campus on BT Road. It has always been in the forefront of statistical practice and theory in India, and was responsible for the design of the world-recognised NSS, until it was corrupted and the figures manipulated by a person or persons unknown.

Your friend is everything I'd wanna be, except for the economics part. yuck. That guy has bragging rights.
how would you see the post#30, about growing Middle Class of India
India is now Listed among the Newly Industrialised Countries, like East Asian countries. we are catching up
=> https://corporatefinanceinstitute.com/resources/economics/newly-industrialized-country-nic/
.
=>
with reference of post#30, India is supposed to have more than 31% population as Middle class.....
the GDP calculation for Developing countries has many issues. there are many 'undocumented' parts of GDP, the ratio of GDP we dont document for developing countries....
a more close to GDP on PPP per capita is given as below . here GDP of India is measured above $16.0tn, which has yet to include many segments of 'undocumented' parts of GDP, as in case of a developing country

The beauty of science is that it knows no religion or nationality. Knowledge is knowledge, and it serves those who seek it well.
Countries with the highest outbound tourism expenditure worldwide from 2019 to 2023
(in billion U.S. dollars)
we would list countries in Purchasing Power of currency term......
the US$ comparison doesn't who the true picture
.
=>
in the above picture, we see India's data rising from 22.9 to 33.3 during 5 years time..... here, Russia is able to maintain its level, nearing India....
China's data is fantastic. Chinese growth were mainly driven from demands from OECD markets. during fall of developed/'saturated' economies, in between 2019 upto 2024, China could stand by with little fall from 254.6 to 196.5

List of states with nuclear weapons
Eight sovereign states have publicly announced successful detonation of nuclear weapons.[1] Five are considered to be nuclear-weapon states (NWS) under the terms of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). In order of acquisition of nuclear weapons, these are the United States, Russia (the successor of the former Soviet Union), the United Kingdom, France, and China. Of these, the three NATO members, the UK, US, and France, are sometimes termed the P3.[2]
Other states that possess nuclear weapons are India, Pakistan, and North Korea. Since the NPT entered into force in 1970, these three states were not parties to the Treaty and have conducted overt nuclear tests. North Korea had been a party to the NPT but withdrew in 2003.
Israel is also generally understood to have nuclear weapons,[3][4][5][6][7] but does not acknowledge it, maintaining a policy of deliberate ambiguity.[8] Israel is estimated to possess somewhere between 75 and 400 nuclear warheads.[9][10] One possible motivation for nuclear ambiguity is deterrence with minimum political cost.[11][12]

The Power not to sign NPT was more than those who signed NPT including P5s
as above, i would say that a day it will be proved that, the Power not to sign NPT was more than those who signed NPT including P5s.
here we find, Moscow and Beijing supported many crimes of NATO against developing countries which Delhi could deny by never signing NPT....

Ultimately, the Third Anglo-Maratha War (1817–1818) resulted in the loss of Maratha independence. It left the British in control of most of the Indian subcontinent. The Peshwa was exiled to Bithoor (Marat, near Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh) as a pensioner of the British.

You need a map when there were trading companies called "East INDIA company" and "Dutch East INDIA company" and when a man called "Christopher columbus" was tasked and Paid by the Queen and King of Spain to find a "new sea passage" to the country of India and ended up "discovering" America in the 14th Century ?
