strange robots lying in ponds distributing lasers 🤷 these salmon are pining for the fjords, not some farcical aquatic ceremony
Norway now has more than 2,000 underwater AI laser robots shooting lice off its salmon they're made by a company called Stingray, and they already guard more than 50 million salmon and trout 24/7 the reason is sea lice, tiny parasites that latch onto salmon and feed on them as few as 11 can kill a small fish, and one pen can hold 150,000 salmon the usual fix is pumping the fish out and blasting them with warm water or water jets to knock the lice off but the handling is so rough that Norway's fish health report ranks it the top cause of death in full-grown farmed salmon so instead, Stingray puts a robot inside the pen that hunts lice one at a time, all day: > two cameras watch every salmon that swims past > AI checks two frames to make sure it's really a louse > then a green laser fires from up to 2 meters away > the salmon's scales reflect the beam, so the fish swims off fine and the louse is dead we now live in a world where AI lasers do pest control on your dinner lmao

Not bad at all @dushyanthsridar :)
Marathi as a language has always amazed me. Reason is simple. The Abhangs. The biggest gift of Maharashtra to the bhakti world. At my recent discourse in English on Hanuman Chalisa for Poona Sangeetha Sabha (Pune), I spoke for a couple of minutes in Marathi. Honestly, I needed a script and some AI training on the pronunciation. Marathi speakers, please mark corrections. I promise to improve on it. Thanks :D

🪔Nutan Varshabhinandan 🪔 This past year flew by in reels and AI life advice 📱 Somewhere between the scrolling, Kabir’s words felt especially true: माला फेरत जुग भया, फिरा न मन का फेर। कर का मनका डार दे, मन का मनका फेर॥ Ages spent turning the beads, yet the mind never turned. Drop the beads in your hand and turn the beads of your mind. Today the phone is our mala and the thumb does the japa 😄 This new year, may the beads of the mind also turn gently towards joy and peace. May joy go viral in your home, And blessings find you where you roam, May health stay charged, may worries clear, And every feed bring love this year. Joyful Samvat 2083 to you and your family ✨ Hetal Rach & Family

India has completed 100 GM's and all GM's are alive, calls for a historic event and photograph
India is ONE grandmaster away from 100. And here's the incredible part every GM India has ever produced, from Vishy Anand (#1, 1988) to #99, is still alive. That means one photograph is possible: all 100 Indian GMs in a single frame. First time in chess history any country could do this. @NikonIndia @Canon_India @Sony_India — this is your Solvay Conference moment. One image that gets reprinted for the next 100 years. Someone should def plan this, it can become a event to celebrate the growth of indian chess. @ChessbaseIndia @aicfchess @vishy64theking @Bharatchess64

A new metro line is an opportunity for another #PuneMetroMeetUp, but missing the organizer @Gautaamm this time ☹️

Everytime a new #Pune metro line or segment was inaugurated , @Gautaamm would enthusiastically organise a metro meet up. A ride, tea, bun maska, few laughs, many memories, new friends- the journey continues. Awaiting the date and final program for Line 3. @nnpgg
Everytime a new Pune Metro line open ups, I arrange a #PuneMetroMeetUp. The idea is simple: meet at Garware station, go to the last station now open and come back and have tea and bun masks at either end. This is the 4th such Meet up and is always a lot of fun. In attendance today were: @heytal @pnqiad @ayadwad @sschivate @shinils (who comes all the way from Kalyani Nagar for each meet up) @GodboleSandeep @AswadPune @thatsabhijeet .

Every new Pune Metro line became a reason for friends to meet, laugh and make memories. Missing @Gautaamm as the new @MetroPuneri line started operations. We come together in his memory, with love and a commitment to carry what he started, forward. Details soon. #PuneMetroMeetUp cc @nnpgg

Philip Crosby, in 1992, wrote a book titled Completeness, extending his famous "Quality is Free" and Zero Defects philosophies. In the mid-nineties, he visited India often and wanted to do for India what Deming was credited with doing for Japan - start a quality revolution. Deming passed away a few years later. Whether he would have been successful in his mission for India or not, we do not know. But the principles of quality he taught, especially 'Completeness ', should be a must-read for all involved in building India's infrastructure.
This is sad. @metrorailpune allows bicycles, rather, encourages them, but @MetroPuneri doesn't allow them. Somewhere, it shows absolute lack of co-ordination and standard practices across providers and doesn't paint a good picture. Needs to be worked upon. @mohol_murlidhar @Dev_Fadnavis @narendramodi

And Pune wants to make its mark in the international cycling map! @MDNagpure @SunetraA_Pawar - request you to take this up in the next meeting for cycle race preparation as well as with metro admin. teapaw.org/docyogi1/status/211824…
Pune Metro Line 1 & 2 @metrorailpune : "Bring your bicycle, go green, ride into the future! 🚲🌱" ​Pune Metro Line 3 @MetroPuneri : "Bicycle? What is this, a gym? Leave it outside for a safe and smooth journey". अरे बाबांनो, एक काहीतरी ठरवा ना आपापल्यात!
