பாஷ்யம் னு பேர பாத்ததும் யாருனு தெரியாம பாதி பேர் புலம்புனா, மீதி பேர் எதோ வடக்கன் னு சொல்லி திட்டிகிட்டு திரியுராங்க..
யார் இந்த பாஷ்யம்?
ஆர்யாவை தெரியுமா என்று கேட்டால் நம்மில் அனைவரும் உடனே சொல்வோம்.. "அய்யே... ஆர்யா யாருன்னு கூட தெரியாதா....? அவர் பெரிய ஹீரோ..."

பாஷ்யத்தின் தேவை அந்த சிறிய கொடி அல்ல... அவனின் கற்பனையில் இருந்த கொடியின் அளவில் காலேஅரைக்கால் அளவுகூட இல்லை அவர்கள் காட்டிய கொடி...
ஒரு பெரிய நான்கு முழ வேட்டியை வாங்கினான்... வண்ணப்பொடிக்கடையில் காவியும் பச்சையும் நீலமும் வாங்கிக்கொண்டான்.... தம்பு செட்டி தெருவில் தான் தங்கி இருந்த அறைக்கு வந்தான்....
மீண்டும் திருவல்லிக்கேணி வந்தான்.... சுப்ரமணிய சிவாவின் மருமகன் வேணுகோபால சந்தித்தான்... "நான் எங்கு போனாலும் என் பின்னே தூரமாக தொடர்ந்து வா" என கட்டளையிட்டான்...
காக்கி சீருடையில் கூட்டத்தில் கலந்து நுழைந்ததால் செயின்ட் ஜார்ஜ் கோட்டையில் இவனை யாரும் கண்டுகொண்டு தடுக்கவில்லை...
அடி அடியாய் ஏறி 60 அடியையும் கடந்து உச்சியை அடைகிறான்... ஒரு உடும்பை போல தன்னை குழாய்களில் பிணைத்து இறுக்கிக்கொண்டு ,
சறுக்கியபடி கீழிறங்கி நழுவி. மீண்டும் தம்புச்செட்டித்தெருவை அடைகிறான்... மறுநாள் காலை ஜெயிண்ட் ஜார்ஜ் கோட்டை அலுவலக அதிகாரிகளின் மத்தியில் பரபரப்பு பற்றிக்கொள்கிறது......
"யார்.. யார்.... "
கேள்விகள் அவர்கள் புருவங்களை உயர்த்த.. ஆத்திரம் அவர்களின் கண்களை சிவக்க வைக்க... கொடிமரத்தை அண்ணார்ந்து பார்த்துக்கொண்டிருந்தது... அந்த திகாரிகள் கூட்டம்....
எதுவுமே தெரியாதது போல தம்புச்செட்டித்தெருவில் தனியாளாய் நடந்து கொண்டிருந்தான் பாஷ்யம் என்ற ஆர்யா...
இவன் ஒரு பார்ப்பனன் என்பதை இந்நேரம் கண்டுபிடித்திருந்தால்... நீங்கள் ஒரு சமகால சமூகநீதி காவலன் என்பதை சொல்லவே வேண்டாம்...

A brief analysis and comparison of the CSS for Twitter's PWA vs Twitter's legacy desktop website. The difference is dramatic and I'll touch on some reasons why.
Legacy site *downloads* ~630 KB CSS per theme and writing direction.
6,769 rules
9,252 selectors
16.7k declarations
3,370 unique declarations
44 media queries
36 unique colors
50 unique background colors
46 unique font sizes
39 unique z-indices
https://t.co/qyl4Bt1i5x
PWA *incrementally generates* ~30 KB CSS that handles all themes and writing directions.
735 rules
740 selectors
757 declarations
730 unique declarations
0 media queries
11 unique colors
32 unique background colors
15 unique font sizes
7 unique z-indices
https://t.co/w7oNG5KUkJ
The legacy site's CSS is what happens when hundreds of people directly write CSS over many years. Specificity wars, redundancy, a house of cards that can't be fixed. The result is extremely inefficient and error-prone styling that punishes users and developers.
The PWA's CSS is generated on-demand by a JS framework that manages styles and outputs "atomic CSS". The framework can enforce strict constraints and perform optimisations, which is why the CSS is so much smaller and safer. Style conflicts and unbounded CSS growth are avoided.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"
The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.
1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!
2) "Repressed memory" syndrome
3) Facilitated Communication [FC]
All 3 led to massive abuse.
"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.
Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.
FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.
For three years I have wanted to write an article on moral panics. I have collected anecdotes and similarities between today\u2019s moral panic and those of the past - particularly the Satanic Panic of the 80s.

1/x Fort Detrick History
Mr. Patrick, one of the chief scientists at the Army Biological Warfare Laboratories at Fort Detrick in Frederick, Md., held five classified US patents for the process of weaponizing anthrax.
2/x
Under Mr. Patrick’s direction, scientists at Fort Detrick developed a tularemia agent that, if disseminated by airplane, could cause casualties & sickness over 1000s mi². In a 10,000 mi² range, it had 90% casualty rate & 50% fatality rate
3/x His team explored Q fever, plague, & Venezuelan equine encephalitis, testing more than 20 anthrax strains to discern most lethal variety. Fort Detrick scientists used aerosol spray systems inside fountain pens, walking sticks, light bulbs, & even in 1953 Mercury exhaust pipes
4/x After retiring in 1986, Mr. Patrick remained one of the world’s foremost specialists on biological warfare & was a consultant to the CIA, FBI, & US military. He debriefed Soviet defector Ken Alibek, the deputy chief of the Soviet biowarfare program

5/x Back in Time
In 1949 the Army created a small team of chemists at "Camp Detrick" called Special Operations Division. Its assignment was to find military uses for toxic bacteria. The coercive use of toxins was a new field, which fascinated Allen Dulles, later head of the CIA

First thread of the year because I have time during MCO. As requested, a thread on the gods and spirits of Malay folk religion. Some are indigenous, some are of Indian origin, some have Islamic
Before I begin, it might be worth explaining the Malay conception of the spirit world. At its deepest level, Malay religious belief is animist. All living beings and even certain objects are said to have a soul. Natural phenomena are either controlled by or personified as spirits
Although these beings had to be respected, not all of them were powerful enough to be considered gods. Offerings would be made to the spirits that had greater influence on human life. Spells and incantations would invoke their
Two known examples of such elemental spirits that had god-like status are Raja Angin (king of the wind) and Mambang Tali Arus (spirit of river currents). There were undoubtedly many more which have been lost to time
Contact with ancient India brought the influence of Hinduism and Buddhism to SEA. What we now call Hinduism similarly developed in India out of native animism and the more formal Vedic tradition. This can be seen in the multitude of sacred animals and location-specific Hindu gods
i wonder if you can make a thread bout witchcraft in malaysia.. or list of our own local gods/deites..

Animist ceremonies of a religious or magical nature were normally held for the purpose of divination or making a request. This would either be done at a keramat or at a shrine similar to the Thai spirit houses or Chinese roadside shrines pic.twitter.com/I1hliyi0x3
