The right comparison is previous El Nino?

No, it's not the most important part. It can be argued that most important part is asking the right questions

One reason is financial. At its peak the Mughal empire was the largest economy in the world. Estimated to be about 25% of global GDP. That's close to the position US occupies in the modern world.

Exactly abuse of citations is a much more prevalent and sinister issue and has been for a long time. Fake citations are of course bad but only tip of the iceberg.

That is the actual trick. To master one trick so well that you can spot anywhere its hiding. Unfortunately, this takes a long time, which is why most mathematicians can only do it for a couple of tricks in their lifetime

With what happened when Google bought them, I doubt if Apple can handle thenlm. Hyundai feels like a much better fit. Japanese companies have had a longer history with robotics and less insistence on short term profitability.

I've reported am explicitly Temu ad a million times and it still keeps appearing. I don't understand why they even have the report feature if they're not going to do anything about it. Feel so helpless.

Koo was never thriving.

This is what I was thinking. If it's mostly fine scale mechanical agitation one is after then there are many ways to do it. An ultrasonic cleaning machine being the closest in spirit to their approach.

I'm aware, that's why I counted just 25 (active) hours per week.

It's not just any job though. Food delivery is amongst the lowest skilled jobs, while research is amongst the highest. Also, good for you that you lived super well But not everyone is comfortable living with 5 roommates.

Assuming a delivery worker works 5 hours a day for 5 days a week, that's roughly 35,916 usd. As a PhD student that hits hard.

That is not an autocorrelation. The OP is equating linear dependence with autocorrelation, which not how we use that term. Autocorrelation is when a random process is correlated with time lagged version of itself.

Well there you go, so it seems there were records of the word's usage around 1820s. Nice job. I can tell you one thing though. In colloquial Persian, achar for pickle is not used. It sounds odd and usually signifies some relation with Indian style pickles

Yes, languages chage and all, but words rarely completely disappear. If achar was originally Persian, then it has completely disappeared from modern Persian, which is bizzare.

This is how you spell achar in Persian, اچار. Find me a dictionary that has an entry for this word. You'll find it in Urdu dictionaries (same spelling), but not Persian, even Afghani Persian, which is much closer to Urdu. You know why that is? It's because achar is NOT a modern Persian word. And by modern I mean last 1000 years or so. It couldn't have been a Persian loan word because there are absolutely no references to it in Persian, at least in the last 1000 years. There's no credible evidence at all to that claim. Just some blog articles and non-experts parroting the same claim with zero knowledge of Persian or even most Indian languages.

As to the real etymology. I don't know man, not easy to find. You can Google Ayurveda and achar, that's all I got. Can't find the original Ayurvedic sources either. You sound like you know some vedas and Sanskrit. Would be great if you can lookup what pickles are called in Ayurveda. In the modern lingo, Ayurvedic pickles are also called achar. And Ayurveda products usually keep their original naming. I don't know of any example where they prefer a colloquial word over an Ayurvedic word. So they calling it achar seems to me that the word predates Ayurveda.

You're right, I couldn't find references to achar in Vedic Sanskrit or Avestan. So it's probably not that old. Although, it could be that those texts didn't bother writing about everyday things like pickles. If those texts mention pickles, but use a different word than achar, then one can claim that pickle wasn't called achar.

I am not proposing any etymology. Just wanted to point that achar is not a loan word from Persian. It's not even the primary word for pickle in Persian actually (achar also means pickle but it sounds very odd in Persian, not an everyday word for pickle). That's what ticked me off about OP's comment. Pickle in Farsi is Torshi, especially in the Farsi that Mughals spoke (central Asian dialects). Afghans still call pickles torshi and not achar. On the other hand, my Nepali friends call their traditional pickles achar, and they have near zero Perso-Arabic influence in their vocabulary. In summary, there is no evidence that achar was a word brought in by the Mughals.

I couldn't find the etymology for achar, but I found references to classical Persian (Avestan) and Proto-Indo-Iranian. Apparently Ayurveda mentions achar, so it's possible that at some point there was a distinction between medicinal pickles and popular everyday pickles.

Nobody knows of course, but to me it's likely that achar has ancient origins, possibly in old Indus Valley or Gangetic Plains. In either case, history of pickle in Indian subcontinent and words used to describe isn't as simple as a loan word.

Achar is not a Persian loan word in Hindi. Just because it's similar to the Persian word doesn't mean it's a loan word. Ancient Persian (Avestan) and Sanskrit were extremely similar to each other (basically the same language). So there are many old concepts and ideas that have the same words in the two languages. Achar is one of them, it's possibly a much older word.

Interesting journey for all of you then. Why did Moneycontrol sue? I wish they had the foresight of buying the tech from you guys instead? The interface really was ahead of its time then. They could have used that.

Cool! What are you doing with climate?

I remember that! I really liked it. What happened to it? And what are you upto these days?

I like the characterization and the premise but I completely disagree with the conclusion. To an academic, science may feel like a strong-link problem but from a layperson's pov it's the opposite. When bad science is translated into the real world, it turns into faulty engineering, bad medical interventions, terrible socioeconomic policies etc. The difficulty is that once bad science is out, it can take years/decades before it can be corrected. This is because science is thought to be our best way to get to an objective truth. This why bad science, when it goes out into the real world turns into "objective truth". Think about the "vaccines are bad for you" crap and the damage that one weak link that got out caused. Several of our modern problems are due to weak science making it out into the world and getting recognizing as "objective truth" because it came via scientific method.

The OP is right that in the long run science is self-correcting by its very nature. Over those timescales, half a generation or so only the good stuff stands the test of time. But over short timescales bad science making its way out into the world can wreak havok.

Does anyone has a similar reference for directed graphs? Very little of this generalizes out of the box for directed graphs as far as I know.

Pashupati is much, much older than modern concept of Hinduism. Many cultures around the time had a "Master of Animals" motif depicted l in their cultural artifact https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Animals

You could call Rudra/Shiva as modern versions of that motif. But calling the figure in Pashupati seal as depecting a Hindu deity is probably not correct. IVC was pre-vedic after all. No doubt later cultures adopted IVC deities into their own pantheon. But IVC religion was likely very far from what we recognize as Hinduism. And probably closer to religions in Mesopotamia at the time. Egypt does seem further culturally than Mesopotamia to me though. So I find the Egyptian connection a bit tenuous as well.

That's what I said too. The article seems to describe scales rather than dimensions. They specifically say there's just one flow of time. But as one the comments below says, there are two time-translation symmetries. Which in certain contexts can be thought of as multiple scales. It is also very common in the real world

Fourier series is one way of separating out multiple time-scales, especially when they are regular and periodic. The example I gave will be amenable to that because the cycles are very periodic. But the different timescales don't have to be periodic. They can be quasi periodic, or completely irregular. They just have to run at different speeds.

It's still a single flow of time right? So more like two time-scales than two time dimensions? e.g. day and night cycle plus monthly cycles happening together on the same time variable. Have I understood this all wrong?

Sure, but if the regulators of that economy have a built in conflict of interest then that free market can't be sustained for long.

Selective breeding is an important component of evolution. But evolution is certainly not just selective breeding. Population diversity whether it's through random chance, genetic drift, horizontal transfer etc. is also a key component of evolution. Equating evolution with just selective breeding is incorrect.
