This year has been a mess, for the most part. There have been a few saves. Things have been a lot better closer to the last quarter.

The high school reunion was in the school premises in Mumbai. I was going to school after 22 years. I met many of my teachers there and a few friends from my batch. We met the support staff, some of who are still working there. There were batches from 2000 to 2014.<br/><br/><a href="http://pradx.in/2024/10/29/high-school-reunion-2/">http://pradx.in/2024/10/29/high-school-reunion-2/</a> 2024-10-29T18:06:18Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqstrm4emedfa30gxssu9sg4x72eqnpg8l68vc5fljy9t53nteqk0cgzypzdvd6s9g0x3d6wks0aamx0wr4gpv6gj03zfw0kvvglhjpzs28p7tzthf8 State of the Map Kerala to be held at Wayanad. <br/><br/><a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_of_the_Map_Kerala_2024">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_of_the_Map_Kerala_2024</a><br/><br/>On 16-17 November 2024 <br/>At Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/390/186/437/322/510/original/baab58472b866785.jpg"> <br/> 2024-10-29T10:16:24Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs06vq9njk9plxk8g33lgzj5gul358f8c5cjyzs4nynj50tdvz93wszypzdvd6s9g0x3d6wks0aamx0wr4gpv6gj03zfw0kvvglhjpzs28p7q2wtxg The Wikimedia Foundation has agreed to share the basic subscriber information of users who added defamatory statements on the Wikipedia page of ANI.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.barandbench.com/news/wikipedia-user-details-delhi-high-court-ani">https://www.barandbench.com/news/wikipedia-user-details-delhi-high-court-ani</a> 2024-10-28T16:19:58Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvfueru9fgvrq9zgfp4gva3gcl6s54udvv8mg352r9umxtyz8uc5czypzdvd6s9g0x3d6wks0aamx0wr4gpv6gj03zfw0kvvglhjpzs28p7g7s8e5 <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1m5vcgeh4m9gavd67wk885n2npqzv25u9yun7mqnvrup39jedt70qy64qag" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Jatan</span> (<span class="italic">npub1m5v…4qag</span>)</a></span> I see that you are herding people into Mastodon. 2024-10-28T16:14:41Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqktrhq2qtlsh4y2kfmtkj9kfn3k9twx4q4spxmgwupmyguveunngzypzdvd6s9g0x3d6wks0aamx0wr4gpv6gj03zfw0kvvglhjpzs28p7dfhl5d The GSAT-20/GSAT-N2 has left Bangalore and is on way to the US for a launch on SpaceX&#39;s Falcon 9 rocket. <br/><br/>Seems to have just left Alaska when I checked the link - <a href="https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=50801b">https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=50801b</a><br/><br/>Source: <a href="https://x.com/GewoonLukas_/status/1846821141668663507?t=ffCNjvcMUrUiWAnyBPoV0w&amp;s=19">https://x.com/GewoonLukas_/status/1846821141668663507?t=ffCNjvcMUrUiWAnyBPoV0w&amp;s=19</a> 2024-10-28T13:37:21Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9fgmfvcrlrjw56dwf75rzlmv3t5hnhj0p0yj0ulj6xv8awhqwf7czypzdvd6s9g0x3d6wks0aamx0wr4gpv6gj03zfw0kvvglhjpzs28p75xtnt7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv9m4as5ku0pajq8hvhcy4hj2cxx0zjkswkgezy0lmdjrf3d8pq0c8ye72z'>nevent1q…e72z</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>thank you.

I have not enjoyed writing on WordPress. But, the alternatives are either too technical or too expensive or the process to pay for them from India is too convoluted. But, I do not want the rest of the year to be the same. I want to be consistent.<br/><br/><a href="http://pradx.in/2024/10/26/weekly-notes-43-2024/">http://pradx.in/2024/10/26/weekly-notes-43-2024/</a> 2024-10-25T19:41:16Z
