Part 1
Here’s the Hancock breakdown in case you missed it:
1) it’s the public’s fault
2) I’m not answering that question about the police arresting people - properly
3) act like you’ve got the virus because most of you will soon (herd immunity)
4) the rich can fly in
#marr

 Part 2 (had to make a cup of tea):
1) I love the NHS (ha ha)
2) we aren’t heading for a national lockdown (Pinocchio moment)
3) the new variant deflections: respond to different question, use vague language ‘not quite right’, verbal stumble (I’m in trouble)
#marr
Part 3 (the deflection continues)
1) November 5th - December the 3rd anomalies you say and I’m supposed to know what is going on (la la la I’m going to my happy place)
2) The only journalist I deign to give pretend answers to is you, Andrew (please please please be nice)
Part 4:
1) genomic surveillance (who’s a clever boy, eh?)
2) spread the blame: ‘brought to ministers’ attention’
3) no, no don’t show me the video of ‘the Boss’, making him look like a liar ...
4) mention the Archbishop of C (I’m a good person too!)
Part 5:
1) ‘when the evidence is clear’ (when we had to face the fact we’ve endangered even more lives for a Brussel sprout)
2) called my mum (I’m a human being too, guys!)
3) being in government is hard (face palm at this point)
4) the variant is to blame (keep saying it)
Part 6: now it’s about schools!
1) you’re lying about schools Andrew (wait, I have to defend Gavin the Gormless as well?)
2) refuse to answer question about Williamson’s actions (because Marr is right) and pretend the q. was about January
Part 7: still schools
1) that headteacher who complained is a terrible human being who doesn’t care about her pupils’ safety or education (personal attacks are easy - get in!)
2) make teachers look bad by comparing them to NHS workers (don’t mention the lack of PPE ...)
Part 8: Brexit and Hancock’s resignation. Too much for now! Thanks for reading 😉

Why does Your Manager’s Manager (YMM) request a deck/doc during a meeting, says it’s urgent, and then doesn’t respond for days after you create & send it?

Or, why does YMM often respond with trivial feedback (e.g. formatting) & not substantive feedback?

Answers in this thread👇🏾

Have you set an entirely new password on a site & said to yourself: “surely, I’ll remember it becos this site is so important for me”. Have you then gone on to forget that password the very next week?

Me too.

The reason for YMM’s odd behavior & my password optimism is the same.

That reason is the Focusing Illusion, first described by Daniel Kahneman.

The Focusing Illusion:
Nothing in life is as important as you think it is while you are thinking about it.

When YMM asked you to create that doc as one of the follow up actions during the Product Review, YMM fell prey to the Focusing Illusion.

Trust me, YMM had no intention of making you do busywork.

YMM truly believed that it was very impt & urgent to create that doc & review it.

This was YMM’s conception of how much of their future time was appropriate to spend on the item for which they requested that doc (Item A):

#ubuloyiJourney😈😈👺👺👹👺

Many people are surprised how their lives got messed up but the reality is, it's started right where you don't suspect

#pilotsoftwitter
First, pilots are black spiritual diviners who can travel at the speed of light using astral frequency to locate

a patient or fight evil

2nd. Best pilots are witches who mostly learn & master flying whereas diviners mostly don't need to learn, they just scream (password)& fly

3rd. Best flyers are whites with their aeroplanes but they are still regarded as amateurs in flight intelligence

since they have to learn from blacks how to ride the sky.

#witchUbuloyiScience

Did you know your suffering was created by your blood family with the aid of outsiders🤔🤔🤔

100% of ubuloyi starts at home

100% of curses on children starts at home

,,100% of struggles by children starts at home

,,100% of infertility is created at home

,,100% of inability to get work & prosper is masterminded at home

#didYouKnow
,,Parents & aunts are some of the causes of your sufferings

,,Uncles are some of the causes of your struggles

Yur sisters & brothers are some of the jelas witches fighting yur progress

🤔🤔🤔🤔Very true,,,it starts at home

,,,,Then it's those who came into the family by social arrangements like marriage or adoption,,,,,,abomakoti & adopted people in yur family.

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x


The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x

Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x

The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x

It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x

IMPORTANCE, ADVANTAGES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF BHAGWAT PURAN

It was Ved Vyas who edited the eighteen thousand shlokas of Bhagwat. This book destroys all your sins. It has twelve parts which are like kalpvraksh.

In the first skandh, the importance of Vedvyas


and characters of Pandavas are described by the dialogues between Suutji and Shaunakji. Then there is the story of Parikshit.
Next there is a Brahm Narad dialogue describing the avtaar of Bhagwan. Then the characteristics of Puraan are mentioned.

It also discusses the evolution of universe.( https://t.co/2aK1AZSC79 )

Next is the portrayal of Vidur and his dialogue with Maitreyji. Then there is a mention of Creation of universe by Brahma and the preachings of Sankhya by Kapil Muni.


In the next section we find the portrayal of Sati, Dhruv, Pruthu, and the story of ancient King, Bahirshi.
In the next section we find the character of King Priyavrat and his sons, different types of loks in this universe, and description of Narak. ( https://t.co/gmDTkLktKS )


In the sixth part we find the portrayal of Ajaamil ( https://t.co/LdVSSNspa2 ), Daksh and the birth of Marudgans( https://t.co/tecNidVckj )

In the seventh section we find the story of Prahlad and the description of Varnashram dharma. This section is based on karma vaasna.

Sri Gurubhyo Namah.
Some tweets on Adi Shankaracharya and in particular the Guru Parampara of @sringerimath. [I had done this series earlier 5 years ago on account of Shishya Sweekaram].


Adi Shankara established the Sringeri Peetham as the 1st of 4 amnaaya peetams.

The four being
1. Sarada Peetam at Sringeri.
2. Govardhana Peetam at Puri
3. Kalika at Dwaraka
4. Jyothir at Badarikashramam.

He installed his 4 most prominent shishyas as heads of the peetams.

Sureshwaracharya was assigned to Sringeri as its head.

Sringeri is a corruption of Rshyashrunga giri.

Rshyashrunga maharshi [and his father Sri Vibandhaka Maharshi] did their tapas at this place.

It is at Sringeri that Shankara spent 12 of His precious 32 years!!

That gives you and idea how much He loved this place.

Rshyashruga maharshi had a horn on his forehead, a result of being born to a deer. His mere presence was enough to shower rains!!

Rshyashrunga was one who led Putrakamesthi Yaagam of Dasaratha Maharaj and which resulted in Sri Rama's birth!!

THE LAST PRINCESS OF LAHORE - BAMBA DULEEP SINGH (1869 - 1957)

Thread

Post partition, every morning a weak old woman would board the Model Town bus service headed to the city. The conductor never asked her for money or he would invite anger of the last Queen of Punjab.

1/n


Princess Bamba Sutherland, the eldest daughter of Maharaja Duleep Singh and grand-daughter of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, was born on Sep 29, 1869, in London.

Duleep Singh, the last Maharaja of Punjab was taken away to England by British after annexing Punjab.

2/n


Since he was still a child he was forcibly converted to Christianity and made to adopt British values in order to prevent him from ever thinking about regaining Punjab.

He was also kept away from his mother Maharani Jindan.
When he finally met his mother years later...

3/n

...he was told about his lost kingdom and religion after which he decided to reclaim it from British treachery.
During his struggle he married and had six children, 3 sons & 3 daughters from the 1st marriage.

Bamba was the most colorful character among 6 and was a rebel...

...like her father and daring like her Grandfather Ranjit Singh. She married Col Sutherland who later became principal of King Edward Medical College.

When she got permission to bring her grandmother Maharani Jindan's ashes to Lahore in 1924, she saw a huge crowd gathered...

Choosing the Right JavaScript Framework

Thanks for joining me @pluralsight to talk about javascript frameworks. We had 150+ awesome questions, so I'll try to answer the ones I couldn't get to online right here in a tweet stream

Watch the video -->
https://t.co/G7zeiKhXme


Q. Do arrow functions really make dealing with JavaScript's "this" keywords easier?

A. Yes! When using arrow functions, the scope of "this" is effectively passed in from the outer scope. See here in this REPL

1/n


Q. Where does Polymer fit in? Is it considered a framework like the others?

A. @Polymer is an excellent way to create web components, which are ideal for creating sets of interactivity that can be shared in web apps.

2/n

Q. Have we gone framework crazy?

A. At one time, quite possibly. A few years back we literally had framework overload. I feel it really has solidified into a few very strong choices.

3/n

Q. [Is] there no more need for @polymer?

A. See my previous question on this ... but in general, I think there is a lot of room for Web Components with frameworks.
