If you create a Wikipedia page, you’ll see many red links. Red links represent topics that should have pages but are not created yet. Nowadays, Wikipedia mainly links to existing pages, and there are not many red links.
This week’s Weekly Notes will have a lot of red links today but will get filled in as the week goes by.
We completed three Ashtavinayaks in the circuit after Siddhivinayak, that I had written about last here. These were Ballaleshwar, Varadavinayak, and Chintamani. We have now completed 5 out of the 8 temples that makeup the Ashtavinayak circuit.
I contributed one chapter to an ebook that was put together by The Hindu, called India and the Second Space Age. If you are a digital subscriber to The Hindu, you get this and many such wonderful ebooks for free. You can also buy it from them here or from Amazon.
I donated a bunch of books to the public library in Pune. These were fiction and non-fiction books that were read by my family members including my son.
Major news from this week include NASA’s Artemis II mission around the Moon generated some interest and not a lot. People were definitely worried about the war in West Asia. ISRO also did the Integrated Air Drop Test. India achieved an important milestone with the criticality of the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR).
I asked, “How often can I write blog posts?” on social media. No one answered. So, I asked Gemini. Gemini said a post a week was professional and a post a day may make it look like you’re desperate for attention.
Most blogs I follow have a lumpy posting schedule. Many posts around the time when they travel or when things happen and then several days of silence.
As time has passed, I also notice this silence in their social media presence. I guess life happens during these periods of social media silence.
I hope to write about these in the upcoming week while also celebrating Vishu, our New Year’s.
