In Java, is your parallel stream reduce giving you inconsistent results? It's a fundamental #algebra problem.
Your combining operation MUST be associative and your initial value MUST be a true identity. (e.g., subtraction fails this test!) systemhalted.in/.../associat…

Doubles aren’t real numbers, they’re 64-bit approximations. That’s why 1e16 + 1 == 1e16 and why stream vs parallelStream can disagree on the same list. If your money or math relies on exact sums, read this: systemhalted.in/2025/12/04/i…
Read my new story inspired by Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by R L Stevenson. The idea of the story is about identity, responsibility and self-deception. The main question is “How much of “evil” is just everything we refuse to see as ours? open.substack.com/pub/palakm…

I’ve walked through Pahalgam, the very place struck in the #PahalgamTerroristAttack. Nestled in the Lidder Valley of Kashmir, it is not just a landscape of mountains and rivers, it is a mosaic of cultures. Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims live side by side, crafting a quiet miracle of coexistence. That harmony, that beauty, that forward march of civilization...these are the very things that terrify the Muslim Brotherhood and their jihadist offshoots. These cowards, banned in the UAE for their extremist ties, now wear the masks of “charities” and “educational centers” in the UK. Islamic Relief, Holdco UK Properties Limited, Cambridge Education and Training Center Ltd, names that sound harmless, even noble. But scratch the surface, and you will find pipelines of terror funding, networks of hate, and praise for Hamas, the armed wing of the Muslim Brotherhood.
This is not just an assault on India. This is a war against human dignity, against cities that dare to dream of peace. It is not a clash of religions, it is a battle between those who build and those who bomb, between those who heal and those who hijack.
Pahalgam is more than a town. It is a symbol. A symbol that terrorists want to break because it represents everything they can never be. And with men like these, there is no room for dialogue. They do not speak the language of peace. They only understand justice delivered without hesitation.

An attack on India is an attack on international law and on a nation built on tolerance. The terrorist assault on innocent tourists in Pahalgam, Kashmir, stands as a crime against humanity and must be condemned without hesitation. Islamist jihadists and Muslim Brotherhood-linked terrorists are no longer confined to the Middle East. Just last week in Jordan, extremists were arrested while plotting to kill civilians, similar to the horrors committed on October 7th in Israel. Now, these same forces are targeting the East. Their network of so-called charities, such as Islamic Relief, which has long funded terrorism across the West and the Arab world, is now extending its operations into India.
India shall not stand alone. The world must recognize the threat and confront it. We all shall stand with India, against every extremist, every terror group, every ideology that seeks to destroy peace.
Heartfelt condolences and deep sympathy go to the people of India and to the families of the victims of this evil and cowardly act. Prayers for a swift recovery for all the injured.
Together all shall stand. United, peace shall prevail.

Interesting squad selection for India’s tour of Sri Lanka later this month. @IamSanjuSamson, who hit a century in his last ODI, has not been picked for ODIs, while @IamAbhiSharma4, who hit a T20I century in the #INDvZIM series, has not been picked at all. Rarely has success in India colours mattered so little to the selectors! Good luck to the team anyway

Every Indian have been waiting for this. At one point it seemed that we will choke again but the Indian team made it happen. #madeinbarbados

Like in stocks, there is a breakout after consoldation in a range, where after resistance for years there is a multiyear breakout and it reaches new highs, I have a feeling that this is a breakout win for us.
For years, we have played well , been consistent in a range, consolidated but not able to get past the finish line resistance in ICC trophies, yesterday i believe is a 13 year breakout for our team and with this win, I think we would be winning many ICC trophies consistently in the years to come.
