Feeling super happy after seeing an AI chatbot successfully help finish a task. I use Typefully to post on social media and love storing what I've posted, as I use social media as a commonplace for notes.

People who are active on social media platforms don't vote. Plus election is not about just popularity. It is about getting enough votes to get elected. Most don't understand the difference. BJP under Modi knows this extremely well. https://t.co/eXi2VSAGfa

One lesson I've learned in value investing, which I've applied to life: Think and act independently. Gather insights from everywhere. Study what others are doing. If they're doing the right thing, follow suit. If not, do what's right. This advice applies even to your heroes. https://t.co/rv6Bqq5rqd

I can't believe @svembu still codes & ships. Respect. I talk to 6-7 year experienced coders who say, "we don't code; only manage". And then we wonder how did we end up with so much of unproductive middle management. https://t.co/JPkSRB078f
