India used to have "gurukulam" concept. It needs to be reinvented for the current era. One option is as mentioned by @malpani. Two primary changes: schools should be community based & led by mothers Both points hit the target at the center https://t.co/CypDahsR4T

1. Many gov handles may not be happy the platform is private. So might move over unless Elon proves he is trustworthy 2. Dev relation might improve. Lots of apps might develop around Twitter 3. Either char limit increase or separate service for long form writing https://t.co/APh1C5m3iY

> time-to-maturity of different results varies Ex: a B2B sale takes min 6 months to close. Need building relations, constant follow up. In between there is no way to measure results of a diligent or otherwise folks True even when working from office https://t.co/K49R6ADTzc

Why not? Hasn’t FB already changed the way we live by tinkering with elections, wide propagation of propaganda and misinformation? https://t.co/WWZyqAngvm

1. ETF / Index would still be the safest investment for common folks 2. Prefer dividend paying companies. You are not waiting for some future time to cash out your investments 3. All investment risks are relative 4. Diversify across asset classes, geographies https://t.co/YCdiJdD4U0

When a big company buys a niche service, the niche service doesn’t get any focus and it starts to rot. Here is a case of Revue & Twitter. https://t.co/JCf0ZOjEPz

If a book doesn’t change your mindset you have wasted your money in buying it and time in reading it. Well I have invested both time and money in reading the Bible. Here are some ways in which it shaped me. One day will expand on each points. https://t.co/v00WahpP8g

There is definitely a need for tools like @logseq & @workflowy where you can think and go deeper on a single bullet point. But as the number of items grow both tools become unusable.

So across the world the scene is the same. Parents send kids to school thinking they have delegated educating the kid to teachers. Schools send homework delegating education back to parents. Happily play this ping-pong or homeschool the kids. https://t.co/KHrTRxpcn4

Ability to correct mistake come from: - lack of awareness of our biases - Low frequency of feedback - Depending too much on hindsight rather than on foresight https://t.co/abXDdOeoWB

We make two kinds of mistakes and #valueinvesting rips the band-aid off and exposed both of them. https://t.co/4YIHS8gRp4

Not all wives make fine party presidents. Think of Janaki MGR & Lallu’s wife. Sonia wasn’t a dummy. She traveled across the country, campaigned, negotiated, and took on cheap, lowly attacks. If there has to be a woman role-model, I would point to her. https://t.co/3goZzInZLH

Best teachers know why a student makes a mistake. They don’t dismiss the student’s effort, attitude. They don’t get angry. They know each student struggles at different aspects.

Should you stop reading books if they don’t change you? 1. Reading books is the best avenue to have a dialogue with brightest minds. 2. If your mindset is not changing possible you are reading fluffy books or more tactical books (“how to”) 👇 https://t.co/v00WahGSag

As a father I know this: kids mimic what you do, not what you say. Office is not much different. After all we are all still kids in some corner. https://t.co/XmWACyJgcZ

in the future, one of the milestones by which you measure your financial success will be not just now many zeroes you can add to your net worth, but whether you can structure your affairs in a way that enables you to realize full individual autonomy and independence. #booknotes https://t.co/mYrZAsejHI

Now that I've read the lecture (pdf here: https://t.co/KqC1BX0m80) I think Vembu is the epitome of the concepts Rajan is making in his lecture. First certain key points from the lecture https://t.co/BwO1r5YtXz

Here is a great example of "Application Modernization": @smashingmag retained Wordpress for its CMS but uses Jamstack for front-end. Everything is hosted on @Netlify It is a fine example of embracing the cloud technology without much disturbance to business. https://t.co/r7RzWNwBNU https://t.co/JZ7pRVI0EN

I find @bigthink ‘s writing on the book (power of positive thinking) shallow. It debates the author not the book nor it’s ideas nor it’s impact on people (positive or negative) May be a title of “Contradictory preacher of positive psychology” would be right for the content. https://t.co/haxd8C8xSJ

A fine thread by @amangoeliitb what govt expects from us and what we expect from govt. Is it too much to expect basic working facilities from govt when they take so much from us? https://t.co/uIa9Q8o8dH

Don’t opt for homeschooling as @malpani says. Yes, you are making a decision, thinking independently. But that independent thinking will rub to all other areas and kids too. Your kids will end up questioning and disrupting all social norms 😳 It is happening in my family 😱 https://t.co/gD5ACizgx7

There are ton of business applications running on legacy hardwares in private data centers. They could be moved to cloud and embrace new tech capabilities. They can also get new business features. Some thoughts on application modernization 👇
