@AdityaSomani thanks for the answer, try to elaborate why they should be on topic, so that it will help clarifying the doubts of other users :)
 
8:05 AM
@Mr.Alien Thanks. I'll do as soon as I'm able to :D
I think questions regarding timelines should be off-topic
 
@AdityaSomani make your answer wiki
 
@AdityaSomani take your time :)
 
@Mr_Green Go ahead. Done :D
Feel free to edit that guys.
That's an important answer IMO
 
I have no thoughts. but thought someone could contribute :)

Haha. I see. :P

Q: Questions regarding timelines should be off-topic?

Aditya SomaniAs far as I can think, Hinduism is a very old religion with many manuscripts reconstructed or timelines vague. Discussing these timelines may become a matter of opinion rather than fact. Some sources may differ by a little amount whereas for some cases, there might not be any sources at all. K...

@Mr.Alien Indeed, but not many understand that very well. Some do though.
 
yup, I have 2.6k flags on the main, I literally thrash low quality
 
main as in SO?
 
yup
 
8:17 AM
damn. I never really got into SO that much. Travel was what motivated me to join SE.
So relatively much newer here than y'all
But, I learn quick. :D
 
I joined the main when I started web dev on my own
around 1.10 yrs ago
 
1 years 10 months
 
yeah gotcha. lol

A: Why clear both CSS?

Mr. AlienI won't be explaining how the floats work here (in detail), as this question generally focuses on Why use clear: both; OR what does clear: both; exactly do... I'll keep this answer simple, and to the point, and will explain to you graphically why clear: both; is required or what it does... Gene...

Lol, you still get upvotes for this answer.
 
yes, people just don't get the concept
 
8:20 AM
Good work on this though. One of the really well written ones I've seen :D
 
hehe thnx :)
 
IMO this problem is only there with SO
because it's so large
and guess what
people who have coding problems
come to so
or rather come to the internet
and SO is the place where it is happening
Come to something like Travel.SE or Cooking.SE
 
the issue is amount of crap questions now a days, its like post a fancy image, ask for css, and gets a shit load of upvotes, if you see, I hardly answer anymore
 
I rarely get upvoted for older answers :(
Apache error dude. :/
 
nah its not an error, I've dropped it down for a while
 
8:22 AM
Oh, I see.
 
no files on the server hence it shows empty dir structure
 
You still maintain this one eh? decodingweb.com/cv
Oh, makes sense. :D
 
ya pretty much ;)
 
Wait, so you're self employed right now or with a company?
 
nope, self
used to work, but companies over here suck you for work, they do pay handsomely but again, they make you work like a donkey
 
8:24 AM
Sweet. Nice website design man. Did it yourself?
In Bombay?
 
thank you and yes
yup, am from Mumbai
 
Delhi would be pretty much the same I guess, without the handsome payments lol
But I've never worked there, so I wouldn't know :/
 
I went their once, to head for chardham I landed on Delhi airport, people are sick, I tell you...
no doubt they have clean streets, fancy metro, but again, people suck
 
People are sick on the airport? :/
Ohhhh
 
in general
 
8:27 AM
Well some of them yeah. I'm from Delhi too ;)
 
ohh haha no offence :p
 
hahahaha
It's all good. What's true is true.
Famous saying in delhi
 
actually India is getting worse day by day
 
Delhi mein koi apne baap ko nahi jaanta
poocho kyun?
 
kyun
 
8:28 AM
Jisko dekho sab se poochta phirta hai "Tu mere baap ko jaanta hai?"
 
sab khud khud k baap hotey hai
 
@AdityaSomani hahaha
 
you are a jolly person
 
8:30 AM
@Mr.Alien Thanks :D
Plus in Japan no one speaks English
Sooo...
Hello guys!!! Haha
The internet is bringing people with common interests closer, and StackExchange is doing a mighty good job!
 
yea, none of the websites are this successful as far as q/a format is concerned, and do you live in Japan now or at Atlanta?
 
Ah, I live in Atlanta, but I've been in Japan for the past 6 months.
I'll be going back in August
 
ohh thats great, Japan is suffering from population crisis, Indians should be sent there, they shold actually send bihari people
 
Haha. Yeah their population is growing older. If we start sending Indians everywhere on the planet, the international language will change from English to Hindi! :P
 
@AdityaSomani Hinglish :p

A: How did Prithviraj chauhan managed to kill Mohammed Ghori?

SemaphoreHe didn't. Mu'izz al-Din Muhammad captured Rai Pithora in the Second Battle of Tarain in 1192, and had him executed. Because Muhammad of Ghor was assassinated by unknown persons in 1206, a story appeared that it was Prithviraj who somehow took his revenge. That story has no historical basis.

 
@Mr.Alien True true.
 
^ what a
 
Interesting.
 
that answer is wrong
 
Wiki seems to support it...
 
8:38 AM
I know the story, that prithviraj had a talent known as dhwani battle
when Ghori laughed, prithviraj recognized his voice and pierced a bow through his epi-glottis in next second
 
But texts don't lie my friend.
 
what?
 
All the three sources he provided seem to agree.
 
strange..
 
8:44 AM
that says what I had heard in my childhood :)
 
This shows it in video. :D
 
^ that is a stupid serial
 
wt*.. I just switched the tab and what I see is a guy staring at me
 
lol
I haven't seen it dude. But it does look Ekta Kapoorish
With all the drama and the flashy faces haha
 
he is lying ^^ he watches that all day long
 
8:48 AM
I know.. I agree with Mr. Alien :)
 
Yeah man, first Breaking Bad, then this!
 
its his fav past time show, he has the episodes on his phone, laptop, so whenever he flies off to some other country, he watches this
also, in HD
 
Only phone dude.
Not laptop
Laptop is for other purposes...
 
so you agree that you watch Ekta kapoorish serials in HD on phone? @AdityaSomani
 
Do they come in HD @Mr_Green ?
 
8:50 AM
you should know that :P
 
@AdityaSomani ohhh I got those other ones
@Mr_Green aaah he is not that bad :D
 
Hahahaha @Mr.Alien :D
I think it's this serial right?
Dharti Ka Veer Yodha Prithviraj Chauhan () is an Indian historical drama broadcast on Star Plus. The story is based on Prithviraj Raso, the Apabhramsha poem by Chand Bardai which portrays the life of Prithviraj Chauhan, a 12th-century emperor in India. Plot summary Prithviraj Chauhan, the Rajput ruler from Chauhan dynasty to sit on the throne of Delhi, is the son of Someshwar Chauhan, King of Ajmer. Proficient in military skills, he succeeds to the throne of Ajmer at the age of thirteen after his father dies in a battle. His mother's father, Anangpal Tomar, ruler of Delhi, declares hi...

God!! who knows? these new serials are just saas bahu type
 
8:52 AM
Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi (English: Because a mother-in-law was once a daughter-in-law, too) was an Indian soap opera that aired on Star Plus. The show was produced by Ekta Kapoor of Balaji Telefilms. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi revolves around the life of the fictitious Virani family.

Yeaaaaaaaaa
1833 episodes
Will take game of thrones 400 years to reach that much
 
@AdityaSomani nah, and and I have never seen any of these shows, infact I hardly watch tv, if I do, I watch documentaries on discovery or nat geo, as far as tv shows go, I watch bbt and himym only
 
arghhhhhh my childhood was ruined by these shows
 
@Mr.Alien I see. I used to watch that earlier. Now I just go on youtube and watch all the interesting stuff like discovery stuff. Otherwise, I stick to downloading the shows and watching them instead of TV
TV is not my style anymore
@Mr_Green I feel you man. I feel you. Mine too. :(
 
@AdityaSomani if you like documentaries make sure you watch Planet Earth bt BBC, I have those in 1080p
also BBC Life
worth spending time
 
I've seen a little bit of Planet Earth
I usually do stuff like How Stuff Works or How it's made and what not
 
8:55 AM
yea discovery science is a good channel for that
 
Indeed. That's where I used to watch all that back in the day
But now, I hate ads.
So, I just download whatever I want to watch
TV is so unpredictable.
 
they have less shows running
people really hate science
 
:( sniff
 
make them watch pathetic daily soaps and they will enjoy
 
It's sad man. Really sad. I'm not saying watch sciency stuff. But watch something which needs some brains
 
9:00 AM
I like them because I am into science since childhood, I love space the most, wanted to be an astronaut :p haha silly dreams
 
@Mr.Alien How old are you?
 
23
 
^ he is joking. believe me
 
You have your own company at friggin 23!?!?!?
lol
 
:s
 
9:01 AM
-_-
 
I need to scan and keep my birth cert online :P
 
@AdityaSomani nothing special :)
 
@Mr.Alien you have your own company?
 
@Mr.Alien Oh come on.
 
9:04 AM
@Mr_Green yup
but a small one right now, so nothing fancy :)
 
9:18 AM
Sad, that world is saying our Great king legends are false. history.stackexchange.com/questions/14322/…
 
History.SE must follow History, not legends. Hinduism can follow the legend :D
 
but prithviraj history doesn't belong here
 
Well. Yeah.
:(
 
@AdityaSomani sorry, was afk for lunch, and yea, I develop static websites, dynamic websites, tailor made stock mgmnt systems, erp systems and chrome plugins
 
I was away for few hours and you guys starting talking about Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi

Q: Lost in mistranslation. What are the words/concepts of hinduism that are mistranslated?

Kinjal DixitThere are words in some languages which are difficult to translate to other languages like gestalt in german. There are words which get lost in translation without sufficient context. It is possible that words from hindu scriptures written in sanskrit got mistranslated to english. The word 'br...

A: Why does lord Shiva wear a Naga (snake) around his neck?

Mr_GreenThere are many stories related to "Shiva wearing snake as necklace". Snakes are meant to be dangerous reptile and is feared by many of us.

WHo told this guys , this removing game.
@Mr_Green you missed last line of question "Also, does he wear just one, or there are multiple?"
Anyways i got this answer yesterday but none of the link were reliable and no scripture refrense i got.
 
10:15 AM

That's contradictory because i know only one snake.

hehe.. yeah maybe.. I am not sure. I just read that link
 
hmmm.......i am still searching for something better. But anyways your answer is also good.

A: Why didn't Lord Krishna marry Radha?

The Dictator To understand Radha correctly you need to somewhat understand the mysteries of “rasa” and “prema” – the ecstatic experience of spiritual love. Krishna and Radharani playfully married once, as children sometimes do. They did not really marry, however, because their love is more primal, ...

Q: What is the basis for the 'unclean' image of menstruation?

Kinjal DixitRestrictions are placed on women who are menstruating. They are not allowed in temple, or in kitchen. They are supposed to keep their hair loose. They should confine themselves.

hehehheheh....^offensive
 
huge data work, banging my head on the desk
 
hii
@Mr.Alien now i get what you thought of the yoga question
 
@jabahar heya, and just read the meta posts, we are still discussing the scope so I decided that its better to ask there and than post a question after confirmation :)
 
yeah, i thought you might have thought that
 
11:32 AM
I see that you are seen one minute ago, please don't wait for an answer, delete your question if anyone links to a duplicate question and if the other question doesn't answer than please state in your question that you are expecting what type of an answer, duplicating the questions won't help anyone to refer to a particular post — Mr. Alien 6 secs ago
@jabahar yup
 
actually the question was not about whether yoga is part of hinduism (in the sense that, is it part of this site, or asking question about is allowed on this site) , it was just about whether practice of yoga is part of hinduism. That, is whether yoga is core to hiduism. And because it is, i cleared the doubt of the OP
 
I still don't get what he writes :D
 
hmm, i know. his question was a bit unclear. so i edited it. can you please check it now if its ok?
 
sure, let me check
Didn't got it, but I'll retract my vote...
its too broad again :D
but nice answer +1
 
@AnkitSharma I didn't even get notify about the badges.. I think yes I did got two badges :D
 
11:38 AM
ok, edited the question again... now i think its clear
 
Mr_Green is a badgewhore
 
hehe
 
where and if makes the difference :)
 
i actually wanted to clear the doubt that Yoga indeed is part of Hinduism, not iported from any other religion or system
yup... made where to if :D
 
@jabahar congrats on being top :D
 
11:39 AM
can you think of a better title?
 
@Mr_Green means?
 
how is "Is practice of yoga a part of Hinduism?"

11:41 AM
@Mr_Green nad, i don't care. i just want to give correct answers based on our scriptures. That's all.
