I wonder why India has not had the same success when its in a similar situation, is the domecratic power worse than the authoritarianism ( at least in the case of China). Or would you say India will eventually catch up and be better for the democracy.

Really interesting to see the deep dive into PCB design and EMI considerations here. It's a great reminder how much thought goes into balancing cost, manufacturability, and compliance, even for hobbyist products. The point about using one layer as a near-continuous ground plane is especially practical, and it's fascinating how even seemingly minor layout choices can have big implications for signal integrity. Thanks to everyone for sharing their expertise—it's one of the things that makes this community so valuable.

Yes. I am Telugu and family name is usually not written or called out. So he would usually write D. Gukesh or Gukesh D. Most people also have a sort of middle name for example D. Gukesh Kumar. Middle name is spelled and used for calling together with main name.

Is there an easy way to separate the fantasy from science fiction books in the awards list? I would like to read books which are more science fiction than fantasy.
