  • Her music is so neutral that it being a fan means you are actively opposing her.

    I'm not sure I understand.

  • I call it the "Ekta Kapoor Effect". She's a well-known producer of Indian serials. Yes, those ones.

    She's had this effect on the Indian TV market. Even regional shows that she doesn't make have this effect.

    Basically, they pick an interesting social topic or issue, make their point in the first few months, and then proceed to just do a repeat of the typical "Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight", or "Artificial drama for the sake of drama" arcs that don't really make any sense, only because they want to keep people watching for as long as possible.

    Next you'll be telling me the Himalayas are actually a result of said subcontinent crashing into the main Asian continent.

  • You did a splendid job of summing it up. Thanks!

  • Just because the theoretical was finalized after the practical, doesn't mean that it isn't applied science.

    We made wheels. We didn't know why it made sense for them to be circular, but we knew it was easier to load them.

    Later on, we learnt about catenary tracks and how circular wheels are great for reducing friction by reducing the contact surface area, as well as the fact that rolling is easier compared to pushing or pulling.

    All of these are things that we instinctually understood but didn't know how to explain.

    This was, is and will be how science works. You see something happen, and you try to understand the how and why.

    All of theoretical science comes from experimentation, which means on some level, you will require engineering. Similarly, all of engineering comes from the gradual process of perfecting how things works (or can work), which is science.

  • Well, if AI is used for such obscure but fun things, I might not mind it...
