Question for people of Indian/Hindi decent
« on: Fri, 21 April 2017, 21:14:05 »
Today I had to email someone in another office and noticed there are like 100 people named Talwinder Singh working for my company. Is this just an extremely common name, or is it like a title for people from a specific caste? It got me really curious.

Correct, it's just Talwinder Singh's online alias.

Ripster practicing making alt accounts and an early version of his script had an improperly terminated loop?

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Well the name indicates that the bearer is a Sikh.

Also, you're looking at the first two names of these people. You need the third one to distinguish them.

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.
