As I learned from @BentleyGTCSpeed, wealth is discretionary time. If more money doesn’t give you freedom it is just a millstone around your neck.

Is it wrong to conclude “education has become a status game and thus a waste of money”? Nobody is doing what they studied for. ⇒ learning to learn > what you learn in college. But college doesn’t teach you learning to learn. What do you think @malpani ? #homeschooling

Seems this fraud is prevalent, from the comments.

If you don’t confront your demons, Your demons will confront you.

A good fan of an art enjoys it & rates it 5 star. A great fan wants to recreate it. @SathyaHQ Started editing "The visual solopreneur" podcast interview. You want to listen to it if you are a solopreneur or a small biz owner. Subscribe to be notified:

An interesting point about low code platforms (esp that get VC funding). Default advice of all VCs: "raise your price" (from @pmarca ofcourse). If your product is coded & platform ups price (like Heroku) you can deploy your code on diff platform. What'll you do for low code?

Reading it now. Loving the insights. So many lines are underlined. Taken notes. Useful even if you are not into coaching.

Is this self-awareness or trolling 😜

Everything @panchlight says about journalists in India is true for IT employees in India.

State of the country is sad.

I can imagine @munishjauhar jogging 64 kms for meetings 😜

As you become fortunate build a longer table not a higher wall.

Anyone who accomplishes anything meaningful shows up consistently. Consistency is the key to success. It's fitting to start with this quote from @TheCoolestCool as I start a 30 day visual challenge. #30visuals

Read this entire thread by @yishan. But this point sticks out. We all fall for orators. We keep listening to them instead of real experts.

Visual thinking brings clarity - @SathyaHQ Just finished a recording with Sathya for my podcast - Gravitas WINS. He demonstrated this clarity throughout the conversation. It is a masterclass in running an online business in this creator economy. Coming up soon to you.

Reason for surprise: I've been using a tool that is of great help. But techie in me wants to develop it for two reasons: - learn how the product is developed - seriously think it can be made better If @mijustin used simplecast prior to starting @TransistorFM , that inspires me

While searching for something about @megamaker, landed up on this podcast: Didn't know @mijustin hosted megamaker on simplecast before started @TransistorFM

The man who wishes to keep at the problem long enough to really learn anything positively must not take dangerous risks. Carelessness and overconfidence are usually more dangerous than deliberately accepted risks. - David McCullough via @rootsofprogress

Some of us in the Gravitas WINS community are taking up a challenge - post a visual for 30 days. Our resident visual guru, @SathyaHQ is teaching us visual frameworks and tools. And we made it open for all. Will you join us tomorrow? Register here:

Today I got this comment on my WhatsApp about this video. Proud both as a dad and techie. This is the type of impact tech should have in the world. Thank you @louispereira for making

Working quickly is important than it seems. Google prioritised speed as a feature. If search is fast, people will search more. True for individuals and companies. #productdevelopment #CareerGrowth

We need reporters & activists like @GauthamMachaiah & @tarauk. Been following them since start of KA election. Unbiased questioning of the gov in power, speaking for citizens.

This audio AI tool by @louispereira is such a lovely tool that my sons (homeschooled) love it. Younger one (11) is using it almost daily. Here he reviews it. Don’t forget to like the video and subscribe to their channel.

When the chatbots came on the scene I said priests will be the first ones to be disrupted. Seeing it to be true. Next porn industry - they will use AI to the fullest extent.

While our data is leaked on sale, everywhere they ask us to write in a white paper mobile numbers - post office delivery to entry to offices; And every account opening (mobile, PAN) all ask for photo copy of Aadhaar. The future is of Indian digital lives looks bleak 😱

Hi @dhanyarajendran is this your Aadhar id? Can you pl confirm what Saket claims here?

Which size of images are best for social media? Though 👇 post is abt ads, it’s equally true for all social media posts too. Square images work best. If you are a solopreneur, you want much buck for least work. Stick with 🔲 size.

> VR or AR devices compete with phones. That's the real competition Both @Scobleizer & @aashishc make this curious point though for different mediums. Robert says for VR/AR. Aashish for videos. All new mediums will compete with phones.

So happy to see my podcast “Gravitas WINS Radio” at 24th position at “Apple - India - Management”. Now that I have broken top 25, hope I can continue to be in this slot. Thank you guests & listeners for all the support. #podcasting

A brand is the range of expected outcomes you can expect from any company or person... What you can count on, rely on, and plan around. - @BrentBeshore A good brand sets expectations and meets them. It attracts the right people and repels the wrong ones. via @david_perell

Jetpack introduces AI to write parts blog post or even a full blog post. Are we going to get flooded with meaningless posts? How will we identify high quality articles?

With changes in Twitter api all integrations have failed. Trying if RSS integration to read tweets work

Interesting conversation around impact of generative AI on IPRs. • If I use an algorithm to generate logos, can I trademark it? • What is the consideration of repeatability on IPR? Subscribe to Gravitas WINS Radio to get it as soon as it is released.

Love is an action that generates feeling. Love is not a feeling, it’s an action - @RahulGandhi

I use these three AI tools daily. • AudioPen • Wordtune • Video highlighter What AI tools do you use? #aieconomy

> As a society we must create an environment where they are motivated to study, achieve, and excel – as much as children of privilege are motivated to do so by their families and communities. This is why I am a firm believer in the policy of reservations.

This escalated quickly. One thing is to question removing these lessons but it is entirely another to link to religion. Not everything has to be looked into with religious lens.

Intellectual properties are just like physical properties. You need to protect them. - Maninder Maniktala Can the artifacts created by #GenerativeAI be protected under IPRs? How will #intellectualproperty change because of generative AI? What other qstns should I ask Maninder?

Thinking of developing #deno + #openai project just for the fun of getting back to coding and learning something new.

Anyone running #deno projects on production?

Low code and no code tools have taken the industry by storm. Are these tools only for building consumer apps? Can they be used in enterprises? I'm happy to release my interview with jinen dedhia, co-founder of DronaHQ a LCNC tool for enterprises.

Everybody is talking how great generative AI is. I want to believe it too. Prompt I used: two neighbors standing on opposite sides of the fences and talking animatedly as the sun sets Look at the image. Fingers and teeth. Man, this is not usable 😱 What am I missing?

A massive review of the evidence found annual medical exams don’t save lives: Discussions on HN is insightful too:
