In this week's #Parallax, I arguethat a #Soyuz mission won’t dim #Gaganyaan’s shine. It’ll only make India’s own spacecraft & space station fly safer. India must use its trained astronauts & book a long stay on @Space_Station before time runs out!

An Invitation Is Not A Seat! And @nasa asking @isro to join its Moon Base Prog shouldn’t be mistaken for one…
In this week’s #Parallax, I ask why India must aim not just to join the next space architecture, but vie to shape it.

Starting today, I'm writing a weekly opinion column titled #Parallax for @timesofindia. The first one, "The Trouble With Getting Used To Miracles", deals with why we must remain curious, ask questions and verify. Scientific temper isn't a luxury!

For more than a century, govts have tried to divide the #Cauvery with agreements, tribunals & court orders. Yet every few yrs, K'taka & TN are back in conflict. The reason lies not only in law or politics, but also in the nature of the river itself. Read Page2 of @TOIBengaluru

Somewhere in #Bengaluru, a #dose (doh-say) is being topped with ice cream. A chutney is watching in silence. A sambar is getting cold. The Dose has been under attack for years, now. And finally, there's an #FIR. Justice must be served — preferably with good filter #coffee!

#AI knows how #caste works in #India. Here's a long piece based on multiple research studies on caste is as deep-rooted in #LLMs as it is in the society. As AI systems move into hiring, credit scoring, education, governance, and healthcare, the stakes intensify with such #bias!

Many readers have called or written in to us pointing out that pictures have been carried upside down on the front page. This is not an error or technical glitch, it is part of an innovative advertisement, which becomes clear when you turn to the next page. We had also prominently mentioned that it was an advertorial on the top page
