when we go to sleep and wake up next day there is a moment when we loose consiousness and then get it back.

In India people call initiation as Deekhsha.
This is where the guru whispers (3 times) to you the seed letters which one has to imbibe over decades of sadhana by lacs of repetition
this looks similar

this gave me enough reason to read this.
sometime back i downloaded a phrack zip on my ubuntu and noticed it had some special character which did not allow me to delete the files once unzipped.
perhaps some safety measure. i am used to only drwxrwxrwx or lrwxrwxrwx on dirs and files never seen srwx.....
Can someone pls point me to some doc that explains how to deal with it.

Almost all the cooking I do are using microwave. While they are not bad, there are certain critical steps microwave cannot do. For example enrich the flavor of garlic and other spices in hot cooking oil. I found microwave is not good at heating vegetable oil and the garlic is more like boiling in lukewarm oil instead of frying. Also it heats food inside out equally as compared to stove which transmit heat from the out layer to inside, as result the food have different textures.
fat in hot oil stores the flavors which gets evenly spread in the food. garlic or chilli or cumin or ginger garlic paste.

I can't blame them for worrying about their health. Hot food and plastic should never mix, unless you want to ingest microplastics.
all clay plates are microwave resistant. (ensure there is no enamel on them)
In india such clay pots are sold by villagers and are slowly getting in vogue.
expected it to work on browser as well. but can use /etc/hosts file instead of allowlist which could also work
suchoudh commented on Ask HN: What trick of the trade took you too long to learn? · Posted by u/unsupp0rted
I took too much time to
1. Empathise about effect of menstrual cycle in women.Its so well hidden from boys (at least Indian). They wonder why girls behave erratically ( sex education needed much earlier at least in India as more kids are exposed to adult content)
2. be very careful when using rm command (use alias rm='rm -i' )
3. Have backup of backup of backup.
4. keep checking if backups restore correctly. (can have a very rude awakening if it does not work someday )
5. People who report to you are different on different days . Dont judge them on few events. (20+ chances at least be given before giving them negative feedback privately )
6. Friends are more useful than family. ( because you have similar priorities in life) They are a lifesaver after 50 so be in touch with school buddies and college buddies esp as its so much easier now. ( Lost few classmates in Covid who had less family support)
7. Learn to cook all your favorite recipes ( of your mom/wife/grandmother). You will never be sad. Make them at least for two people, share it.( right size the utensils you use regularly. not too small not too big)
8. Meet Reality as it is by using Vipassana. It is a super power to counter the unethical AI use. (just finished 10 day course in Bhopal, India New courses are across world ) * They are not paying me anything for this.
I genuinely believe #Vipassana works. BTW Yuval Noah Harare (Wrote Sapiens and Nexus) has endorsed it as well.You can find course near you in this link. https://www.dhamma.org/en-US/courses/search?current_state=Ne... (Its free and runs on donations)
9. Keep a water bottle and flat tiffin (empty is also ok but can keep biscuits/leftover for later in day)
10. Remember to have fun. (we often forget) (kk.org has advice on how2)
