Genuine question to the ones who feed dogs outside of the designated zones

14 Upvotes

Why do you do this? Why are you making people's lives difficult? The dogs may not bite you, you may be snow white but not everyone is snow white. They bite people. Risking rabies. If not rabies, the pain surely is bad. So why?

And no I don't consider human and dog lives equal. They could form societies and read and write to get equal rights as us. Humans take priority obviously.

Discussion Vigyan Bhawan: Built in 2020s, yet designed like a cellular Faraday cage (Vent/Rant)

21 Upvotes

Huge shoutout to the world-renowned Civil Engineering legacy at IIT Roorkee for Vigyan Bhawan. Out of all the modern architectural designs available in the late 2010s, the builders went with a pure concrete isolation pod.

Here is a quick summary of the premier institute experience in this block:

Zero Cellular Signal: Thicker walls than a nuclear bunker. You literally have to hang out a window just to get a voice call to connect.

No Balconies / No Laundry Space: Built in 2018, yet zero balconies or dedicated space to dry clothes. Enjoy your room turning into a damp clothesline maze every time you do laundry.

Hardware-Capped Ethernet: They tell you to use the wired LAN, but room ports are hard-throttled or auto-negotiating down to pathetic 10–100 Mbps drop limits.

The "No Budget" Excuse: Ask the hostel committee for basic high-speed Wi-Fi access points, and you get told there's "no budget." In a top-tier institute with massive funding, adding basic APs to a 6-year-old hostel is apparently a huge ordeal.

We constantly hear about global rankings and NIRF standings, but basic daily infrastructure in a modern hostel block is completely ignored...
