Help me learn Nepali
So I’m from Sikkim, but my parents always made me talk in English when at home so I’m pretty bad at Nepali. Been living out of state for a while, and it feels bad that I can’t even talk properly to my people. Can someone help me learn nepali? Will pay for the classes of course.

Is sikkim ppl r racist?
I’ve been trying to understand something and would really appreciate local perspectives, especially from people in Sikkim.
Why do some people in Sikkim feel unhappy about the merger with India (like after Annexation of Sikkim)? I’ve come across opinions suggesting that there’s still some resentment, but I’m not sure how widespread or accurate that is.
Also, I’ve noticed discussions about locals being uncomfortable with “outsiders.” Is this more about protecting local culture, identity, and resources, or is it something else?
I’m not trying to judge—just genuinely curious and hoping to understand the historical and social context better. Would love to hear from people who have lived experience or knowledge about this.
Thanks in advance!

Spsc
Spsc might have tampered with marks in order to favour their Favourite Nepo
In a competitive exams where a clear difference of 1 mark can determine merit list SPSC has deliberately made changes but why ?? For whom?? We believe it’s just tip of the iceberg
There is a bigger picture we may never see.!!

Will Supreme Court judgement affect the employment in Sikkim as well?
The Supreme Court of India ruled on April 16, 2026, that government employees hired on a contractual or ad hoc basis without public advertisement or interviews cannot be regularized. This landmark judgment emphasizes that such "backdoor" entries violate Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution, which guarantee equal opportunity in public employment. The ruling prevents the regularisation of temporary staff, stressing that all public jobs must follow a formal, transparent selection process.

Food Vloggers from Northeast India
Northeast India food content feels super underrepresented… or maybe my algorithm is just broken? I say this because i mostly keep seeing Naga and Assamese food creators pop up, but barely anything from the other states.
Surely there are more people making good food content from these places??
Drop your favorite food vloggers (IG / YouTube) from other NE states — especially underrated/local ones. Really looking forward to states such as Sikkim, Trupura, Mizoram.
Would love to learn more

Our computer vision garbage detector just crossed 90% accuracy. Sharing some real detections.
Hey everyone,
We've been working on an app called FixMySpot — it uses an edge computer vision model to automatically detect garbage and illegal dumps from photos. The idea is simple: you snap a picture, the AI confirms it's garbage (not just a pile of leaves or construction material), tags the location, and it gets flagged for cleanup.
We've been quietly improving the model over the past few months, and the accuracy gains have been rapid. Sharing some real detection results below — the blue boxes are what the AI identifies as garbage, and the number is the confidence score.
As you can see, the model now picks up everything from roadside dumps to waste scattered across open fields — even in tricky lighting or when the garbage is mixed with vegetation. Some of these detections are hitting 86–91% confidence, which is a big jump from where we started.
Our hills are drowning in waste — tourist spots, roadsides, nallahs, open plots near new construction. Nagar palikas can't act on what they can't see. This tool puts the reporting power directly in people's hands, with AI doing the verification so reports are credible and actionable.
Download FixMySpot, walk around your area, and start reporting. Every photo you submit also helps train the model to get even better — especially for the kind of terrain and waste patterns we see in the hills. The more people report, the harder it becomes for authorities to ignore.
Would love to hear what you all think. And if you spot garbage in your neighbourhood — point your phone at it.
Currently only available for Android. Search for FixMySpot in play store to download.

What's happening in Guard ground?
This morning while I was out for a run near the palace area, I noticed an intriguing sight at the guard ground and West Point school. Is there some development happening at the school? The building under construction doesn't quite look like a typical school expansion what could it be?
