    India Is Building New Toilets Every Second—but Hardly Anyone Is Using Them

    I could say the same to you. I specifically chose that article because it uses the same inflammatory writing style that the article in the original post used. China is starting to get embarrassed about its tourists’ obnoxious behavior abroad – Quartz Still think otherwise? You are in no...

    Smart Cities and Research Institute Projects Underway: Development News for August 14, 2014

    The reason I didn't is I think that thread and threads like it have an entirely different purpose and function, like posting pictures. If not, everyone would only post in the sticky threads and no new threads would be started.

    India Is Building New Toilets Every Second—but Hardly Anyone Is Using Them

    My problem with this article is not the latter half. The guy copied that portion from an AP or Reuters article I saw elsewhere, and decided to add his own crude, distasteful spin in the beginning purely out of schadenfreude, racism, whatever.

    Have the Chinese Replaced Americans As the Worst Tourists in the World? | VICE United Kingdom Just a reminder that both China and India have problems, not just India. The Chinese are just better had hiding it.

    India Is Building New Toilets Every Second—but Hardly Anyone Is Using Them

    First of all, it's amazing how people in this country are allowed to be racist to Indians, just not anyone else. We quietly became the most successful people in the country, but don't take to the streets like other groups whenever someone says something about us. Have the Chinese Replaced...

    2 Indian-origin academicians win maths global prizes

    I wouldn't know, since I'm studying in the US currently. There are definitely programs that include learning about Vedic math, I think, but not sure whether there are any devoted exclusively to it. This was the only thing I could find: Maharishi University of Management -> Academics -> Academic...

    2 Indian-origin academicians win maths global prizes

    It should be on Wikipedia, but I can offer other, more legitimate sources as well. This is an example of an Indian mathematician almost lost to history: Indians predated Newton 'discovery' by 250 years Granted it's difficult to determine where calculus begins and what constitutes a definition...

    For some fans of Modi, so far, so disappointing

    Are you kidding me? You think organizing and blueprinting projects involving literally trillions of dollars takes only two months? Building a road alone requires studies to ensure optimal traffic flow and access, acquiring land and capital, sometimes displacing people, jumping legal hurdles...

    2 Indian-origin academicians win maths global prizes

    It's sad that education across the world is eurocentric to the point of blatantly lying. When you ask Indians about India's mathematical achievements, they can point to 0, the numbers, maybe even the decimal and binary systems; but they won't know that ideas wrongly attributed to Europeans like...

    Kashmiris hatred towards India

    Honestly, I don't mind if "Kashmiri" crypto-**** terrorists are getting killed, anyway. Do these terrorists really think they can get away with first infiltrating, killing off the Hindus in the area, trying to start their own Islamic nation after doing so, and then claiming human rights abuses...

    International Math Olympiad 2014 results are in! (India fails again)

    The Chinese getting blown out. Now there are several elite awards that Indians have and they don't (Abel Prize, Turing Award, Fundamental Physics Prize, Godel Prize, Nevanlinna Prize, to name a few), while there are no awards that they alone have. Unfortunately this still won't put a stop to...

    Kashmiris hatred towards India

    Notice it's all the same handwriting. Besides, you should be more worried about Balochistan, no?

    We can have dialogue on Kashmir under ambit of 'insaniyat': Govt

    HowStuffWorks "Islamic Culture - Achievements" Pretty paltry list. Much of what Europeans attributed to Arabs were just Indian discoveries transmitted through trade. They accomplished a lot in terms of architecture and warfare, but little in terms of abstract thought.

    We can have dialogue on Kashmir under ambit of 'insaniyat': Govt

    Most of India has always been run regionally by Hindu kings, even during Muslim occupation. And you seem to be forgetting that before the British came, the Marathas had already ended Muslim rule. Don't get ahead of yourself; Islam only had potential when there was little technology and...

    Kurdish forces battle ISIS, blasts kill 47 in Baghdad

    Only because the Kurds ran out of bullets. Once the US supplies them, ISIS will be wiped out.
