Is it safe to say that China is at least 30 years ahead of India?

Another Example from Greek Mythology: Hippomenes and Atalanta race. [This is a warning to my country, the USA, really]

Not many will agree with Zeno, because he is a Mlechha Yavana Barbarian.😂😂after all.

Look at each individual Eco-system within your immediate environs, that works in your land, in your local Area and if you are not discomfited, then all is fine. “Experience” is the key here.

Traffic on Roads. Well, experiences in India. 🙄

This paradox argues that Viswa Parihasa, a swifter than Dung runner, can never overtake the slower Dung Poo Pew, who has a head start by the way, because by the time Viswa Parihasa reaches the Dung's starting point, Dung will have moved forward, and Viswa must then catch up to that new position, repeating this process… ad infinitum.

China did that and still does that too. And I can’t understand complaints by the US and Russians here.

How long would it take for “Vishwa Parihasa ” to catch up with “Dung Po Pew”.

So, here is my proposition.

Your Corner D-Marts gave me the same “experience” as any that I had in Japan, China or Korea.

Zeno’s answer: NEVER.😫

Maybe I should Poka Yoke and Nemawashi my writings as well. 😂😂

There is the Greek Philosopher Zeno’s paradox.

Why is China the first in the world to counter the "reciprocal tariff"?

Let us assume that the Polity called “Dung Poo Pew ” is ahead of the Polity called “Vishwa Parihasa” in some mythical race.

Poka Yoke: Make the design of the systems, so that even “village idiots” (there are many) won’t be able to make things worse in the Eco-system and ruin your experiences.

This begs the question.

So what I’m suggesting is that rather than constantly comparing and tearing one’s clothes in agony, employ what the Japanese call “Nemawashi” and Poka Yoke

Zeno of Elea, born c. 495 BC—died c. 430 BC

I caught my husband of 20 years looking at inappropriate pics of women on TikTok or Instagram. I'm not sure., but when I told him he got mad and made excuses of why they popped up. I then told him how I've snuck on his phone and saw what he's been looking at . We had a horrible big fight. I asked him why did he even marry me when I see the type he likes . Nothing like me, I'm petite, blonde and blue eyes. These women are dark haired dark eyed and have curvy bodies, large breasts, etc. I just don't feel the same about him after this. I can't get over this

I’ve heard this proverb before: Fools build Houses and Wise Men live in them.

China is a polity; India is a polity. So far so good.

What is it that you folks wants to ‘Catch up” here??? Just asking not telling.

Airports: ECO-SYSTEM.

Beyond that how logical would it be for one to pick a number based on the number of trips, the Planet Earth makes around the Sun?

Many lost their heads, as they looked behind to see if Atalanta was gaining on them . Hippomenes was given a head start by Atalanta.

This so-called race is in my opinion, a Phantasm, that only exists in people’s mind and I would wager that this Phantasm chiefly exists, it seems in India- which is looking at China with a mixture of envy and jealousy.

Banks

Why cant I sleep on my side after getting my covid vaccine? I just got the shot and I’ve been overstimulated from not being able to sleep, my arm is very sore and it hurts so much to move and I just want to sleep but it hurts if I lay on either side

The model that prompts such a question is based on a “Circus Maximus” model in which Chariot races were run in ancient Rome, where Individual Nations in this example, are run like Chariots. Some are ahead, while some are behind and we are all spectators here.

Hippomenes won the hand in marriage of Atalanta following a running race by distracting her by tossing “golden apples” whenever, he thought, she was gaining on him.

Petty Corruption. My mainland Chinese American friends, who travel back and forth to China assure me that petty Corruption is well and alive in China and the ranking by Transparency International, which monitors ‘perception of corruption’ in nations, ranks both India and China about equal. So that seems about right. 🙄

Now, it is an experience that is just as good or not as good as any Bank Office in the US or China or any where else.

Now for some areas of discomfort.

Again, in any urban setting in India, the Malls are an eco-system as good as any experience in China.

Afterall, Whatsapp, FB, mobile smart phones, have all helped us interact as well as avoid pesky and nosy neighbors and relatives.

I generally don’t place a time scale on who is ahead or who is behind and by how many years in this “Game of Nations”.

Space race- Technology in general.

That is all that matters really.

High rise in China below:

Well for starters, “Vishwa Parihasa ” must run at a ‘faster’ pace than “Dung Po Pew ”.

What is so magical about 30?

So no harm for Indians to “copy” the technology obtained by sweat and tears and expense of billions of dollars or rubles over decades by the big Two.

The other factor is TIME. This is where the paradox comes in.

Peace and good luck to all.

There is no shame, if one wants to repeat the technology, that was developed by the pioneers such as Russia and the US. The guide book and protocols are all there to emulate (Copy).

What is the experience of an ordinary salaried family to living in this bee-hive?

So, if China were at all worried, like Hippomenes, that India would overtake them in this “race” that they are not worried about, then they will like Hippomenes toss some thorny crab apples* to distract the nattering classes in India.

Hippomenes distracting the speedy Atalanta to win the race and also her hand in marriage

Thanks for the request Nagarajan Sir. Sorry for the delay, it is tax filing time.

Anyone, who looks behind to see who’s on their heel. will befall the same fate as all the suitors of the lovely Atalanta in Greek Mythology, who was the fastest runner in the world.

Not true in many other areas of the country. 🙄

Hospitals

But I thought, I would include it just for kicks and clicks. 😏

Give yourselves a round of applause. 👏👏👏

These Airports are an Ecosystem, where I’m far more ‘comfortable” and have a more ‘pleasurable experience’ than at La Guardia Airport or JFK Airport in New York $hitty. (misspelled intentionally).

And the plummeting birth rate in China and the aversion to marriage in China and even sex, among the young is increasing exponentially, seems to point to that.

I land at Hyderabad or Bangalore Airports. The airports are spotless, well maintained, orderly and the people follow all the rules, the security is run smoothly like clockwork. The Uber and Taxi System is excellent and smoothly run. So is the Baggage Carousel, Immigration, Customs, etc. etc. WOW!

Any Bank in an urban setting, used to be the equivalent of the famous play by Samuel Becket “Waiting for Godot”, except back then in India, decades ago.

Any suitor, who wanted to win speedy Atalanta’s hand would have to beat her in a race and if they lose, they would lose their heads.

D-Marts etc.

Look instead at Pockets of Comfort created within your immediate environs.

I will even wager one of my shares in JD. Com ( a Chinese MNC) that most Chinese are not even bothered to see, if India is “lagging” behind them.

I don’t know. I know that if I were young, my sex drive would plummet, Viagra or not.

Would that be logical? Yes!

You were “Waiting for your “Dough”

Also, what does “Ahead” and “Behind” really mean?

Before Desi eyes go somber and tearful, let me explain.

To Indians, Crab Apples are wild apples that are extremely bitter, but are used to make Apple Cider- an alcoholic beverage, much safer to drink, than polluted water, back in the day.

India has a space program that seeks to reap military as well as civilian benefits in this so-called race which there is none.

Don’t compare, Don’t Complain.

Brevity is the soul of wit, but what can I say… Verbosity is the soul of a Twit. And I admit to being Verbose.

Instead of giving GDP numbers, GDP/Capita and all those Statistics to make you feel good or bad, I decided to answer Nagarajan Sir’s question in the form of a long meandering discourse.

Coming back to Greek Philosophy this time.

Some Examples

Not the distant unheard of thunder from climes and places, thousands of miles away.

Viswa Parihasa and Dung Poo Pew Parodox per Zeno

Here it is an Eco-system where both Dung and Vishwa seem to be competing for the race to the bottom of the well. 🙄

But is this what we want to emulate? I don’t know the answer to that?

It is the same situation, when I learn Newton’s Laws or Calculus. I can freely learn it without breaking much of a sweat. Use some else’s Gyanodayam for literally free.
