The year is 2050. Sheetal, Nilesh and Samiran are reminiscing about that amazing episode they recorded in April 2023 about life in 2050. The crystal gazing they got right, and the predictions that did not go as expected.
They did feel a sense of satisfaction that they had made such bold predictions and had lived to see them come true. No one on Earth was chasing them on the streets with brickbats. But that was also because they were sipping Expresso Martinis on the Moon 😉.
Nothing more about the future can be revealed here - time travel, changing the future, back to the future and all that hogwash.
Catch this episode of 3 Techies Banter for a peek into that world.

Predictions. As expected 😉, two main theories provide conflicting explanations. The first claims that we are more likely to perceive what we expect because it is more likely to be there. The second proposes that we are more likely to perceive what we do not expect because it provides more information. That was predictable👻👻👻.
The EU-funded ConflictedPrediction project hopes to address this paradox through cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research. It will test a new hypothesis using electroencephalography (EEG), magneto electroencephalography (MEG), and 7 Tesla (7T) MRI to explain how learning could render veridical and informative perceptions. WOW!!!. If nothing else, it will definitely take your minds off predictions.
Since these findings will only be available in 2026, we thought we should just go ahead with unbloxing trends 2023 without their wisdom. We hope you enjoy this episode.

When we think immersive, we think about Disney theme parks, Avatar, the movie, ABBA and Van Gogh experiences and more. The more evolved also talk about 29 Rooms and Secret Cinema.
But what are immersive experiences really about? At its heart, it is about making the world a better place through empathy, feeling what the other person is going through, seeing what they are seeing, and being in their shoes.
Would the Russian people support the invasion of Ukraine if they could experience what the Ukrainians are going through? How about an immersive experience as a punishment for the rapist instead of the death penalty - what would be worse?

Gloom, Doom and yet - a 1000 flowers Bloomed in 2022.
2022 was about the long tail of the pandemic, inflation, multiple humanitarian crises, worldwide climate change, and war in Europe. Wherever you turned, it was hard to escape the sense that things were falling apart.
2022 was also a year of human rights and conservation victories, significant milestones in global health and development, and a welcome boost to clean energy.
After all the countless collective hours spent focused on everything MSD (mad, sad and dying) in 2022 (bet you thought we meant Dhoni 🤣😎😉); perhaps it is worth spending half an hour talking about what humanity DID achieve. And if you don't believe us, ask the beavers.

Natwarlal (not the Amitabh Bachan type) is best known for selling the Taj Mahal, The Red Fort and the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
Frank Abagnale (Catch Me If You Can fame) impersonated a doctor, a lawyer, and a pilot. He even logged 2 million miles of flying and cleared the bar exam.
Are these cases for better crime detection? Or just the correct use cases for verifiable credentials?
Join us as we talk with our favourite guest, Pramod Varma and unravel the complexities behind this new need of the digital era.

Who is Santa Claus? Is he the source of unending joy and happiness for children worldwide that we have all been led to believe?
Or could he be the first MCU hero with superpowers like super speed, super insight and a super cool ride.
Or, as we, at 3TB, suspect, he is a tech geek who loves playing around with quantum mechanics with the right splattering of AI, digital cloning, warp-speed mobility and other alien tech.
OMG - could Santa be an alien?
Find out in the 3TB Christmas special.
Look forward to your feedback at 3TB@unblox.com.

Listen up, you Illuminati, Opus Dei, Freemasons, and Skull & Bones Society; there's a new secret society in town. The Order of 37 was founded by eccentric mathematicians tired of mainstream numbers getting all the glory. Pi, Fibonacci, Mersenne and the Catalan numbers were such show-offs. But 37? It was the unsung hero of the number world.
Members, known as "Threesevenians, believed that one of their own discovered that 37 was not just a number but a portal to another dimension – a dimension where pi ends and where the square root of two is a nice, neat whole number. To access this, one must write the number 37 precisely 37 times while standing on one leg and humming the theme from "We Are the Champions".
If this is thought-provoking, you are at the right place. Listen on.

History is filled with protracted, drawn-out conflicts, but did you know about a war that could have been missed during a coffee break? It started at 9:00 AM and was over by brunch, proving that even wars can have a tight schedule!
Switching gears from fleeting wars to eternal edibles, let’s talk about honey’s impressive shelf-life. This sweet treat has been found in ancient tombs and is still as good as new after thousands of years. So, why doesn't honey spoil? The plot thickens.
The human fascination with the number 3 runs deep. Trimurti, Trinity, movie trilogies, states of matter, pigs, musketeers, witches of Macbeth - the list is endless. It gives us a sense of stability that 1 and 2 cannot (legs on a stool 😎). Hopefully, we will not see World War 3.
Listen On...

From a beer-drenched London street to the simple joy of a flying disc and finally to the click of a mouse that bought "Ten Summoner’s Tales," history, it seems, prefers its tales served with a side of whimsical. And we have a rhyme to match.
In London's streets, the beer did flow,A flood of ale from long ago.The vats did burst, the town did weep,In hops and barley drowned so deep.
Then Yale, where pie tins took to flight,Became the Frisbee's birthright.A simple toss, a joyful cheer,From tin to disc, the path was clear.
Online, a transaction bold,Dan Kohn's CD of Sting was sold.Through NetMarket's digital door,A new era began to soar.

Could a banana split or a split personality have anything to do with the fact we share 50% of our DNA with bananas? Scientific facts or outrageous humour? A little of both, really.
And the next time you meticulously pick out unwanted items from your food, remember you're just channeling your inner rock star. Ask Van Halen about their brown M&M snacks.
Speaking of refreshments, that glass of water you're sipping might just have a prehistoric past. Thanks to the unending water cycle and the laws of physics that prevent matter from being created or destroyed, your H2O could very well contain molecules that once quenched the thirst of dinosaurs. Or as the title suggests.....
So, this episode is a toast to your ancient, banana-sharing, rock-star-emulating, dinosaur-sipping existence. It’s a quirky world we live in. Have Fun.

In India's market, returns are the king,Outshining others, the bell they do ring.With growth so robust,In the Sensex, we trust,To investors, great joy they do bring.
To save on their taxes, firms sail far and wide,To Ireland and Delaware, they smoothly glide.With cleverness and stealth,They amass their wealth,In havens, their profits do hide.
Purple, once rare, adorned only the elite,A colour of royalty, none could compete.From snails, it was born,Now widely worn,Its history of luxury, none can defeat.

We are guessing that the "Naughty" in the title is what got you hooked. That is smart sales personship (note gender neutrality here 😉 ). Or another set of super interesting stories from the "House of 3TB". This is inspired by the calls we get from the "House of Abhinandan Lodha" to buy houses we cannot afford.
Not sure why they are not calling from the office, though 🤣🤣🤣.
So get busy listening.

Despite our population, there are no Indian books in the Top 10 Most Read List. Disturbing!!!. Recovering from that discovery, we explore the world of "Join the Dots', Atto Seconds and broken ice cream machines.
How would an LLM respond to the question of whether the earth was flat or round in the 1500s? Could it have saved Galileo?
Have fun "shorting". Is that even a word? 😆🤣🤣😂😂

Picture a gleaming kitchen, not of stainless steel and polished marble, but of code and algorithms. Here, the head chef isn't human, but a complex generative AI armed with a digital Swiss army knife that cuts, slices, dices, and blends through lines of code. The pantry? Forget neatly labelled jars and neatly stacked shelves. This is a digital garbage pile – fragments of text, snippets of code and images culled from the internet's deepest corners.
What happens next is more euphonic than gastronomic - this is a podcast - silly.

From ancient mummies navigating modern red tape to towns tweaking their names for reasons you will shortly understand, the world's tapestry of tales never ceases to amuse and astonish. Which is where we come in. In fact, this mummy's travel tale is a reminder of how time, in both literal and bureaucratic senses, can be surprisingly elastic, very unlike the "Jiffy" in our episode.
Join us yet again for a regular diet of "battle the traffic with wit".

Hum Shayar to Nahin. Magar......We love to rhyme. So here goes
In Silicon Valley, where tech dreams ignite,There's a squad of women, in code and gadgets who are pretty bright.They code like a breeze, debug without a fight,In a world where ones and zeros dance day and night.
In this high-tech realm, James Bond might roam,With his sleek gadgets, far from his London home.Sipping his secret martini, shaken with a foam,He marvels at the tech in this innovation dome.
And out on the green, where the Google signs gleam,Goats graze calmly, as if part of a dream.They munch, and they bask in the digital stream,With tech and Border Collie in harmony, it would seem.

Once I stood proud in homes adorned with grace,Crafted with care, I had my place.Now in a bakery's warm embrace,I fuel the flames, no trace of space.From resting weary bones to a fiery dance,I've changed my role, not left to chance.What am I?
If you got this, you could be the Riddler, the supervillain from Batman. Or just the right kind of crazy who loves our Shorts. And you would know that each great riddle has a story. And the story behind this one is hidden in our podcast.
So - keep listening to us for those free tickles.

If you thought PPP stood only for Public-Private Partnerships, you are not much of a writer. At 3TB, we think PPP should only mean Petrache Poenaru Pen - dedicated to the inventor of the fountain pen. With everyone agitating for a name change, it is time for us fountain pen activists to get a pen named after its creator. That seems to be a just cause.
And now we come to the trickiest word in the English language - arse. A quick search yielded 34 ways to use it as an idiom or in a sentence. Then there is the usage itself, which is confusing - bad-arse is good; smart-arse is bad. Sometimes it is just added to be cool - lazy arse is lazy, and a long-arse flight is just a long flight. Quite puzzling. Our story is not no ordinary fruit - it is the Arse Fruit.
For that and more intriguing insights, listen to our shorts.

In this episode, we take you deep into the wondering world of the QWERTY keyboard, where:
the longest top-row word is 'rupturewort', a type of plant
Peru is the only country that can be typed on one row of a keyboard
If you type letters using alternate hands, skepticism is the longest typed word you can type
And then we come to a scene out of Yes Minister, where three barrages on the Yamuna River are managed by three different states - Haryana, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. This can only be a backdrop for a Wodehousian novel, not flood management in the capital city.
Some more tickles and laughs in store for you in this edition of Shorts.
