తంత్రికాజాలశిక్షణ ద్వారా జరిపిన అవకలనచిత్రణం వినియోగించి అతి భారీ త్రివిమరూపనిర్మాణాలను శరవేగంగా చిత్రణం చేయగల ప్రక్రియ ఇది! త్రివిమరూపాలను వస్తువర్ణధర్మాలను సంక్షిప్తపరిచినప్పుడు చిత్రభూమికపై కలుగు లోపాలను కనిష్టీకరించు ఉత్తమసంక్షిప్తాలను ఈ ప్రక్రియ గణిస్తుంది. #విజ్ఞానవిశేషాలు
నిజప్రపంచపు వస్తువుల త్రివిమప్రతిగ్రహణకు ఇటువంటి పద్ధతులు వాడేవాళ్లము. ఇలా కృత్రిమవస్తుచిత్రణకు, అతి భారీ సమరూపాల స్వసిద్ధసరళీకరణకు సంక్షిప్తీకరణకు యంత్రశిక్షణ ప్రక్రియలు ఉపయోగిస్తారని ఊహించలేదు. ఎంత త్వరగా మారిపోతోంది ఈ కాలం! కృత్రిమచిత్రణ పాఠ్యాంశాలను మొత్తం తిరగవ్రాయాలి. 😀
There is no universal definition of "religion" (or "faith"). In fact, the various Sampradāyas of India are not faith-based, but practice based. Even the philosophical tenets (like the 8-fold noble path of Buddha) are not "faith based". They are a practice driven by self-inquiry.
Some scholars, like S.N. Balagangadhara argue that even the reconstruction of Indian Sampradāyas as "religion" is problematic. The native word is "Dharma", which is a universal ethic, which is grouped into "Sampradāyas" (traditions) that are not mutually exclusionary.
The supposed divergence of Buddhism from Dharma is a cock and bull story manufactured by colonial Indologists. In reality, Buddhism is just one other Sampradāya of Dharma. Once you see this clearly, you will see the scam that separates 500+ million Buddhists from other Dharmics.
The best antidote to the colonial bullshit are the works of Ananda Coomaraswamy. Arguing from fundamental principles, he explains how all the tenets of Buddhism have deep roots in traditional Indic texts. All the symbolism of Buddhism is intertwined with other streams of Dharma.
Obviously, Buddhism is an independent Sampradāya with its own distinctive features. But such is the case with million other Sampradāyas of Dharma, grouped into "Hinduism". Colonial scholars have successfully separated out other streams as well: Divide and Hunt is the policy.
The phrase “cultural revolution” to describe what is normally called as “decolonization” is intriguing. Mao has actually systematically destroyed Chinese culture in his “cultural revolution”. How does this Orwellian newspeak word describe Indians speaking Indian languages? 🙂
Please suggest Indian language words for “decolonization”. I spoke about this with some friends before, we don’t yet have a mature Indian language terminology for these phrases. I will describe my suggestions:
This is a widely used for colonization, from उपनिवेश (additional habitat, colony). I think it works. But please also suggest the corresponding usages for “colonized minds”, “decolonization” etc. I don’t think it works well there.
There is an interesting social media phenomenon I noticed recently, I will call this the TikTokization of the world. There is a random eye catching snippet of video that is shared by a lot of people. Detailed commentaries are made about it. Battlegrounds are drawn. All for what?
I don’t get it. At some point, my entire timeline that Twitter throws at me will be filled by these discussions.
I still don’t get it.
Okay, we can make one snarky comment about a stupid video and move on. But why this sociological analysis, political philosophy and so on!?
I feel like people’s attention spans are so short-circuited by these dumb social media that they have come to believe that TikTok (or something like that) is the real world. Nobody has patience to read a book, or discuss things from multiple perspectives, and learn about things.
This is a broad and well-thought out perspective by @RajivMessage on the impact of AI on the Indian workforce. One of the many good panels organized at the @RaiseAISummit. This conference did a rather fine job in discussing the various facets of AI. I was positively impressed.
I hope @GoI_MeitY repeats the success by organizing @RaiseAISummit again in 2021. There are a wide constellation of AI luminaries in India and abroad (especially Indian citizens or Overseas Citizens working as AI researchers and professors) who must contribute to the discussion.
My personal wish would be that the proceedings of such important conferences be translated into all the major Indian languages, so that Indian citizens get the capability and opportunity to discuss and debate such critical issues in their own native tongue and idiom.
Great discussion of the British engineered famines in India by @arvindneela and @kansaratva on @AtharvaForum. The famines were engineered by British policy, designed to kill/displace millions of Indians and reduce the threat of an armed revolt like 1857.
Most illuminating is the discussion about the Great Madras Famine (1876-1878). Engineered a few decades after India was brought under the control of the British crown (after the suppression of the 1857 revolt), this famine killed 9-10 millions of Indians.
In 2026-27, we shall be marking an important 150 year anniversary of this mass genocide of Indians done under the aegis of British Raj. What will we do in India to remember this monumental event?
10 million people died. Do you even know who in your own families perished then?
