In reply to @_zenman

@_zenman @Suhail @CaseyNewton I have read them all. In fact read them first before I read Casey's coverage. If Benz is used to transport drugs and authorities wanted a specific information about how that brand of car works, would Merc cooperate with the authorities or reject? This is all false equivalence…

In reply to @malpani

@malpani Holding citizens more accountable that government and acceptance of that by citizens. If you don't comply to law you are charged with fine. Have you ever heard a govt official who authorized the failing bridges and roads charged? Every RTI reply comes back as, "can't answer coz…

@spinesurgeon Man how I underestimated you. I thought you only dealt with human bodies. Are these before going to medical school? I didn't play with Atari. But did rest everything. Additionally C (turbo c) too.

@JDaviesPhD Someone else asked a similar question - how to find joy in the journey when things don't go so well. I answered this.

In reply to @T_Investor_

@T_Investor_ @Akshat_World Agreed about that. But even in the current collection, a lot can be done. I don't know when I saw a road that stood for a rain. I don't know anyone who registered a land without a bribe (or inflated price). All of these are leakages both in govt as well as for citizens

@skh27 Have you tried pcloud? I recently moved from dropbox to pcloud. They have lifetime plans. Transferring data took a lot of time (almost a week) but now everything works. I was also considering setting up a local NAS but didn't want to incur headache of managing something at…

@david_perell David: I have watched you from far (in India) from the beginning. You are truly a master in "building in public", though you don't proclaim that. Your transparency, quality and quantity of output, constant experimentation mindset are all a source of inspiration. Good luck.

@AshishAlexander This is what I decided, implemented, and followed after a similar incident in 2011. Outrage is easy. Lifestyle change is hard. As @cynstepin says, this is a cultural issue. We need mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, friends ... everyone involved. If you are not part of the…

@SaiDrGaddam Two comments on this Sai. I) Three factors have to align for any endeavor to succeed • strategy (what & why) • tactics (how) • logistics (non-core activities aka overheads) If you want to run microschools as a charity / side-hustle first two is ok; but if you really want to…

In reply to @arvidkahl

@arvidkahl @_erayl GPTs are rubber-ducks that can reason. Been using Claude for coding too (find Claude is better for coding than chatgpt). One advantage with this is, you can reason out the generated code. So you don't have to just copy paste the code (as you would do in stackoverflow days). You…

@MehraAtul123 @amitranjan @apoorv03 Thanks Atul. One company that has mastered this intersection of infra + value layers is, ironically, Apple. They have their own apps, but generally hide as an infra layer for other devs. They make more money from their membership fees (like Costco) than most other value layer…

@nileshtrivedi @mrkaran_ @obsdmd Using this graph, I look at orphan notes. I have a tendency to create new notes when in need. Then over a period, I have a look at orphan notes and connect. Also, global graph doesn't help me but local graph (the one from hub note) helps a lot.

@aakrit One of the Tamil Nadu IAS officer who used to be invited as a chief guest for classical music events used to quip: There are more awards than classical singers ;-) Seems this idea cuts across many fields ;-)

In reply to @amitranjan

@amitranjan @apoorv03 It is easier for companies with distribution to incorporate innovation than innovation finding distribution. As of now, AI is more a feature than a product itself. So it is possible AI becomes an infra layer for consumer product than a value layer (one that consumer interacts).

@SathyaHQ Just finished this book Sathya. It is a deeply insightful book. Would love to discuss the book with you.

@rishabh_grg It takes guts to be open like this ..."driven by mimetic desire" This is a discussion we have at home often (in fact I gave a message on this in a church this week). Without desires we have no meaning in life. But mimetic desires pull us into a track that's not ours. Though…

@rishabh_grg Go for it. FF are not worth it. We have stopped it almost. I say almost because once in six months, we stop by one of the FFs (Burger King, KFC) and eat out, so kids know what it is.

@aakash_rewari That's a bold prediction Aakash. I have thought about that as in the lines of Sri Lanka and other countries. Do you think it can happen in a country as diverse as ours?

In reply to @

@pankaj013 @adityafountane Depends (of course). Smaller companies may not have the luxury to offer both options. They are able to negotiate a better price with vendors and service vendors based on quantity. So all employees get the same model. Most small breakages have to be borne by firm;

In reply to @DellAnnaLuca

@DellAnnaLuca Graham Staines' wife forgave the criminals who burnt him and his two sons. Ever since then I have struggled with this concept. This is how I am resolving now. Forgiveness is personal. Punishment is corporate. An individual has to forgive to heal and move forward. Society has…

@pankaj013 Is it possible city dwellers are moving to UPI / digital; and everywhere else cash is still king? With cash - I get the money immediately; I get the same money (not after some fee / commission)? I see this even with some vendors. They ask to give in cash
