The Nepalese flag is the only one in the world that isn't rectangular or square. It is also the only flag whose height is taller than its width.

The flag we see today was adopted in 1962. Prior to that, though, it looked quite different.

Yesterday's AIs ate the Internet and became a patchwork mediocrity.

Today's AI hunts and feasts upon the Mozarts, Einsteins, and Shakespeares of our age.

HCTGS v36 India — The Tower That Can Pays for India’s Water Before the Water Even Arrives HCTGS v36 India. 2,000 towers. Per year: 730 billion m³ freshwater — India’s entire water use · 17,500–26,300 TWh or 350–525 Mt H₂ · 1,090–1,410 Mt magnesia · annual output $1.6–2.8 trillion. CAPEX $1.3–2.3 trillion over 25 years — $52–92 bn a year in orders. Each running tower funds the next within two years. Ground occupied: 160–400 km². Entry: 30 towers — the Chennai corridor and the Gulf of Khambhat. ......... Punjab draws 156 percent of its annually extractable groundwater. Rajasthan draws 147. Haryana 137. Those are the 2025 figures from the national Dynamic Ground Water Resources assessment, and the difference comes from aquifers that took ten thousand years to fill.
