'The solution of polymer models with fluctuating HI and IV would require “complicated matrix operations that may well be impractical unless preaveraging of the matrices is introduced.” [Macromolecules 19, 1195 (1986)]' Challenge accepted 😎 #rheology sor.scitation.org/doi/10.112…

Excellent AI-generated summary of my recent paper. I love "The Gist" section which describes the research findings in plain language. I do not like the "Technical Details" section. Interested people can directly read the paper instead! gist.science/paper/2507.0569…

After he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957, Albert Camus wrote a letter of thanks to his favorite childhood teacher, whom he'd never forgotten. It's beautiful.

Caught in the IndiGo flight mess? We're taking legal action (PIL) regarding these systemic failures. We need 250 passengers to join before Dec 10. Let's raise our voices together for better rights. Support the case here: forms.gle/jtPqhMcBZx2uXn1Q7

A 19-year-old from Jodhpur just built something the Indian government should’ve built… using @QwikBuild Aadhya is a first-year student who asked a simple question: How can Indians access government schemes without confusion? Government schemes can change lives. But most people don’t know which ones they qualify for, or how to apply. She decided to fix that. She heard of QwikBuild and created SahayAI, an assistant that: 1. Explains schemes in plain language  2. Gives personalised recommendations 3. Simplifies documents for every citizen Yesterday, she told us, “I want this platform to be accessible to every Indian.” Her next step? Adding voice and regional languages so anyone, anywhere can use it. And we’ve already promised she won’t be building it alone. Stories like hers remind us why we started. To give power to the person.

I have filed a legal notice. Will share with everyone if anyone wants to join

Everytime I get mad at people in the cheap seats criticizing founders in the arena, I remind myself of what Giannis said. Arguably my favorite response to a reporter ever.

Much respect to whoever is this man in this DRDO test going at 800 km/hr to test a fully indigenous ejection seat system. Also, only three countries could do tests like these, now India joins them. Kudos to DRDO scientists.

Aequs, an Indian aerospace manufacturing giant has a 250 acre facility in the town of Belagavi, Karnataka. They supply to Airbus, Boeing, Safran and many other aerospace companies around the world. It’s also the only company in the world to have facilities like forging, 3,4,5 axis machining and surface treatment within the same campus. These are the companies that are building India’s manufacturing heft. Wishing many more companies like this build in Bharat. 🇮🇳 💪🏼

@ISRO recently conducted a NO-GPS Mars Drone challenge, it was intense.... ⚠️ - Crashes everywhere - Drones not landing - almost all teams using expensive intel cameras but one team won, without using expensive sensors, full video linked below

used to solve them when I was in class 11. summer holidays were fun solving these :)

This is the part where we, Mysore Polymers' played our squirrel-like role, when the Payload Faring /heat shield separated! Congratulations @isro!! Video credit; DD India

Piyush is BTech from IIT Kanpur. He was placed at Deutsche Bank at a very good salary. He quit his job to start a hardware startup in India. Vecmocon builds some of the best EV hardwares in India today. It has a super strong team. Piyush wants to make it Bosch of India.

Writing, Structure, Content, AIChE! linkedin.com/pulse/writing-s… All the best to everyone in the job market!

Norway and Canada require extremely high-quality fishing cages and nets, which they surprisingly import from Pune Garware Technical Fibres has global patents, an astonishing 1,200 Cr revenue, and 7,500 Cr market cap Pretty crazy high-tech material manufacturing happens in India

New breakthrough quantum algorithm published in @Nature today: Our Willow chip has achieved the first-ever verifiable quantum advantage. Willow ran the algorithm - which we’ve named Quantum Echoes - 13,000x faster than the best classical algorithm on one of the world's fastest supercomputers. This new algorithm can explain interactions between atoms in a molecule using nuclear magnetic resonance, paving a path towards potential future uses in drug discovery and materials science. And the result is verifiable, meaning its outcome can be repeated by other quantum computers or confirmed by experiments. This breakthrough is a significant step toward the first real-world application of quantum computing, and we're excited to see where it leads.

Interesting... 'Why do Stanford math professors still use chalk?' stanforddaily.com/2021/10/17… “if the speaker tried to use slides, people don’t retain as much because [the speaker] goes much faster. Whereas if you write on the chalk, you are forced to slow down.” Academics on my timeline... what do you use in your classes?

Columbia CS Prof explains why LLMs can’t generate new scientific ideas. Bcz LLMs learn a structured “map”, Bayesian manifold, of known data and work well within it, but fail outside it. But true discovery means creating new maps, which LLMs cannot do.

The deeper you go into the semiconductor supply chain, the less believable it becomes. > TSMC, a company on a small island, produces over 90% of the world’s most advanced chips > TSMC relies on dutch company ASML for EUV lithography machines > ASML depends on German Company Carl Zeiss, the only firm in the world capable of making mirrors precise enough for ASML’s requirements. > The light source for ASML’s EUV machines is produced by a single company in San Diego. > The photoresists used to print transistor patterns are produced by Japanese firms like JSR and Tokyo Ohka Kogyo. > The ultra-pure quartz needed to make silicon wafers comes entirely from a single mine in Spruce Pine, North Carolina. > The copper and rare-earth materials inside chips are mined and refined across Chile, the Congo, and China. > The specialized gases used in chipmaking, like neon and fluorine, largely come from Ukraine and Japan. > The design blueprints for these chips often come from American companies like NVIDIA, AMD, and Apple, which rely on software tools from U.S. firms like Synopsys and Cadence. Remove any single piece and the whole system collapses.
