Indian companies getting hacked left and right
Today:
- Vijay Sales
- Au Small Finance Bank
🚨🇮🇳 Vijay Sales allegedly compromised, super administrator access and millions of records offered for sale
An actor using the handle "shinymontanna" is selling alleged super administrator access to the internal systems of Vijay Sales, a major Indian electronics retailer, for $25,000.
The listing claims access to over 3 million order records, information on 15,000 employees, and billing records for approximately 140,000 vendors.
The advertised access reportedly includes customer information, payment and bank transfer records, inventory, financial reports, and internal applications, with read, write, and export permissions.
Screenshots showing administrative dashboards and super administrator permissions have been published.
Claim is currently unverified.

They pull this shit all the time. Leak the worst-case scenario, let people lose their minds on X, deny it at first, then roll out a watered down version as a “compromise.” The so called middle ground was their plan all along. They’ve pulled this stunt so many times.

Thread on the RBI EDF from my @91basispoints column with Arjun Raghavendra (Tax lawyer and former IFS)
TLDR - India has moved from license raj to Declaration Raj (AND) everyone works for the government now salary free.

We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent.
It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

> The revoked intermediates themselves have no customer impact. They never issued a certificate, so no certificate in use anywhere relied on them.
This is a listed company whose business is digital signatures, completely missing the point. 🤦♂️
Everyone who either had emudhra's certs in their trust store or communicates with such entities who had that, is impacted - not just emudhra "customers". Because many web browsers, operating systems, and cloud provides included these, almost everyone in the world is impacted.
Cloudflare explains the seriousness of the problem:
Global TLS Intermediate CA incident: We’ve updated our incident page with how it happened, who is affected (one US customer ecosystem), what’s not affected, and what we’re putting in place. We will publish the root cause once our investigation is complete.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
eMudhra minimizes the scope by claiming only "one US customer ecosystem" is affected. In reality, 8 of its CA certificates had catastrophically weak private keys (one being simply the number 4), allowing anyone to forge trusted HTTPS certificates for any website on the internet.blog.google/security/prote…

Jai Hind
The judicial custody of #AshutoshRanka and #SauravDas must be urgently reviewed and they must be released immediately.
Hoisting the National Flag, even in a prohibited area, should not warrant such prolonged detention. The judiciary and the executive must rise to the occasion to ensure that the youth of this country do not lose faith in the rule of law and constitutional rights.

Mistral recently released a 209M model that can predict future data locally on a CPU in ~140 milliseconds.
Not every useful AI model needs to talk (just like Jev)
No GPU required.
It's a super small foundation model designed for time-series forecasting.
Give it historical data like:
📈 sales
⚡ power usage
🏭 sensor readings
📦 demand/inventory
🌡️ telemetry
…and it predicts what comes next without training a new model for each dataset.
The largest version stats
🧠 209M parameters
💾 837MB FP32
🖥️ runs on CPU or GPU
📚 up to 32,768 historical time steps
🔮 forecasts up to 1,024 steps per forward pass
📊 outputs 21 probability quantiles
🎯 Mistral says it ranks #1 among pretrained/zero-shot models on all three major public forecasting benchmarks
🥇 GIFT-Eval
🥇 TIME
🥇 fev-bench
It can get small like Timestral-5M → 21MB
Mistral says on an 8-thread CPU:
⚡ 5M model → ~10 ms
⚡ 209M model → ~140 ms
for a one-day forecast from three weeks of 15-minute data.

Verdict: yes, it's good. With limits.
✅ Rock stable under load
✅ Perfect tool calling + instructions
✅ Image vision passed every check
⚠️ Plan on ~256k context, not 1M
⚠️ Short document answers: 57%, it rambles
❌ Video understanding still fails
ALT Verdict: yes, with limits. Where it shines: 6 hours under load with zero drift and zero crashes; 100 on tool calling and instructions; 98.6 on reasoning puzzles; image questions 100% pass; 64 tok/s across 4 users on one box. Watch out for: video understanding still fails; plan on about 256k context, not 1M; short document answers 57%; thinking mode costs about 25 times the tokens; one run per mode, not a leaderboard.

🚨MASSIVE BREAKING : Indian Express Just EXPOSED Fraud in Indian Defence Sector🔥
(MUST Read & Share)
the aiming system of the Army's anti-tank missiles.
The operator uses them to lock onto an enemy tank.
Bharat Dynamics Ltd makes missiles for India. It's a government PSU.
For 2 years, its optical sights orders went to a public-sector firm.
In 2024 and 2025, BDL bought them through competition, only from public-sector firms. Defence PSU India Optel won both times.
2026? Competition gone. PSU rule gone.
A "single tender" to just one private firm, Aindri Defence Advisory.
Per Indian Express:
-> It was set up in May 2024 by BDL's own ex-CMD Siddharth Mishra and his wife, 14 months after he retired.
-> His wife now owns 95%.
-> Company records show no assets. Its Hyderabad office was found locked.
-> The bid is ₹56.8 crore, with a 15-year maintenance tie-up.
-> And the reason for the "urgency"? Never spelled out.
Mishra, his wife and BDL gave no reply.
Bro, imagine your son's school buys the bus brakes from the old principal's wife's company.
No other quotes. No workshop. Just a locked shutter.
"Urgent hai," they say.
And your child rides that bus every morning.
Here, it's the soldier's life riding on that aim.
Modi ji, you salute the jawans in every speech.
Then who certified this "urgency," and why is it hidden?
The Defence Ministry sits under you. Answer, or is it "national security" again 🔥🔥🔥
