I may be the wrong audience for this post, but we were taught them in my college class in the USA.

Those of you who studied Hindi in school, were you specifically taught the nuqta?

(Inspired by @hindisoup's post on the nuqta joke in Darlings)

#We were also taught the original pronunciations of ण ष and श but our professor told us we wouldn't need to know those details for Hindi #They also told us about some regional differences in pronunciation/about different dialects but it was only very basic things

sometimes when I'm bored, I go through the list of recent bad faith Wikipedia edits that have since been reverted. a lot of them are politically contentious/offensive topics that attract crazies and trolls in general, but sometimes there are completely innocent inoffensive articles that people attack for no reason. some guy yesterday vandalized the article on the chemical element francium

The one bizarre thing to me about textiles is that warp-weighted weaving is at least 6500 years old, but our oldest knitted artifacts are only ~1000 years old, and crochet 200 years old. Even though you need less equipment to knit (two sticks) or crochet (one hook) compared to warp-weighted weaving (frame, loom weights, batting, heddles). Why the big gaps between these inventions? And why did each one appear and spread when it did?
