🚨 JioHotstar Design is Hiring! We’re designing what the world streams next — and looking for talented folks to join us at our Bangalore HQ.

Made this interaction of Linear’s dithered logo for our latest release. It’s using canvas with a lot of tiny dots. There’s an invisible circle around the cursor. Any dot inside it gets pushed outward with a cubic falloff so it’s gentle on the edges, and strong at the center.

@itsharshag @thejobsmap Why does this look awfully familiar 🤔🤔🤔 Wait it’s another copy of @nextdoorcohq @sankalpdomore 🤦🤦🤦

light mode dark mode toggle shipped for @thejobsmap 🥳 what do you think?

Maturing is realizing that Tony Stark was a vibe-coder.

There is an invisible layer that affects many friendships in Bengaluru. That layer is called urban and civic exhaustion. Friendships don’t fade because people don’t care. They fade because the city quietly drains the energy required to sustain them. The traffic takes an hour out of your evening. Work spills into what used to be personal time. Weekends become recovery periods rather than social ones. You start saying things like: “Let’s meet soon.” “Next week for sure.” “Once things settle down.” Things rarely settle down. What earlier required a 10 minute auto ride now requires planning, coordination, and stamina. You have to build stamina to be rejected by drivers on apps, to cross under constructed sites, to take long jumps over open drainages and collect dust on your face. Friendships slowly move from physical spaces to WhatsApp reactions and Instagram replies. The affection is still there. The intent is still there. But the civic friction of the city sits between people. In cities like Bengaluru, maintaining friendships has quietly become an act of effort. And sometimes, effort is the first casualty of urban and civic exhaustion.

Remember AngelList's glory days? 🚀 Pivoted to Angel.co, now Wellfound. Question: Are they still THE spot for up-and-coming startups hunting co-founders or early engineers? Or have builders jumped ship? (Asking for the next @TeamShiksha cohort grads, reply!)

"You need AI for design." You mean, you need a eye for design.

Recently I built an archive of my work, and figured this might be useful for a lot of people — so now it's a product / platform: - Focus on simplicity - Simple grid format - Minimal customisation options - AI automatically catalogs your work - Figma plugin to sync frames Looking for a few people to give this a try.

Had tweeted this question ~5 years ago. Very cool to now be part of a product launch at @JioHotstar - Conversational Search in partnership with @OpenAI - which practically gives me choices for this so easily now. And interestingly, the top few results are exactly what came up on the twitter thread 😅

Dear @BenQIndia, pre-ordered your flagship ScreenBar Halo 2. The delivered product has some sort of (manufacturing) defect. I hope you resolve this soon mates. My excitement and anxiety is too much palpable here. 😅 Serial number for reference: WTVAS00681000.

@UghDitya Had made one for myself sometime back qriusv.design/vault

Working on a “products i own, want” website, no targets, no outcomes, just a visual tracker for my life

@Kenneth Let’s catch up if you’re in BLR 😇

So what’s next for me? Well I’m taking a much needed sabbatical and hope to use it to figure out what’s next. For now, I guess there’s going to be a lot more coffee shop hopping in the plans 😄

Today was my last day at Jiva. Kinda bittersweet end to a journey of 3.8 years as we wrap up our operations this month.
