Retweeting so that I can close all these one by one....

The beauty of time is that it changes Neither CSK nor players ever did such cheap gestures despite owning every team & winning 5 titles but when CSK was down, every team is stooping low indicating how hardly we fucked you for years!

Udhayanidhi Stalin joins the long list of idiots like Mahmud Of Gahzni, Mohammad Ghori, Timur Lane, Aurangzeb and many others who tried to eradicate something, but got eradicated instead

In 2000, Kapil Dev held firm through tough questions on HardTalk, but broke down when asked if history might remember him as someone accused of match-fixing. His sudden tears and emotional collapse created a powerful, unforgettable television moment. Kapil Dev - “I will commit suicide before that rather than taking bribe from somebody. Take all my money, I don't want it. I come from a family where pride is the most important thing.”

Coming from the CEO, the least that they could do is to proof check for grammar, typos and spacing issues.

This is getting murkier and murkier...

These are not Cherry blossoms dude.

This is just plain stupid.

Why CSK is special…

@circusthuppaki There are also a few Institutional Factors like (a) Sabha culture in Chennai (b) Canon dominated by Trinity compositions (c) Gatekeeping by elite performers and critics as well as socioligical factors like dravidian movement against caste, language movement vs hindi per se,

@circusthuppaki Blaming KB for Carnatic music’s linguistic and cultural tensions maybe inaccurate. The Tamil–Telugu debate predates him by decades (Tamil Isai mvmt. This scene didn’t create the divide—it reflected an existing discomfort around accessibility vs elitism.

A lot of problems in TN can be attributed to the fact that KB did not grasp the issues his films were dealing with.

Ok never going to Thailand...ever

Trump: Yaaru da nee??

🤦🤦🤦

Just goes to show that Canada cannot do anything right..

I honestly do not understand why tennis (or golf) players insist that they need silence. In sports like Basketball, the crowd actually causes disturbances while shooting free throws. Part of your ability as a sportsperson is to get into the zone.

Stay safe New York City.

@Ric_RTP What’s your take on IBM beating street estimates?

This is the biggest irony in tech history. Microsoft beat revenue estimates. Stock plunged 11%, wiped out $400 BILLION in market cap. Salesforce reported growth. Stock fell 5.6%. ServiceNow beat earnings. Stock crashed 11%. SAP beat projections. Stock dropped 16%. Entire software sector entered bear market territory. Down 22% from peak. These are the companies everyone said would WIN from AI. They spent billions BUYING AI companies. ServiceNow: $7.75 billion for Armis. Salesforce: $8 billion for Informatica. They launched AI products. Built AI workflows. Hired AI teams. And the market said: You're all dead. Because investors just realized something nobody wanted to admit: AI doesn't make software companies stronger. AI makes software companies OBSOLETE. Morgan Stanley: "In an environment of heightened investor skepticism, stable growth falls short of shifting the narrative." Good earnings aren't enough anymore. The market is pricing in a world where AI replaces the software these companies sell. ServiceNow CEO tried defending on the earnings call: "AI needs workflow orchestration. ServiceNow is the gateway to this shift." Market response: 11% crash. Because here's what he didn't say: If AI can write code, automate workflows, and generate apps at a fraction of the cost, why would anyone pay $50,000 per year for enterprise software licenses? The per-seat pricing model that made SaaS companies rich is getting murdered by AI efficiency. One AI agent replaces 10 seats. One prompt replaces months of custom development. One LLM call replaces entire software categories. Klarna already proved it. CEO said they pulled Salesforce out of their stack. Built everything themselves using AI. And that's just the beginning. The software apocalypse hit hardest on companies that INVESTED IN AI: Atlassian: down 12.6% Intuit: down 7.8% HubSpot: down 11.5% Zscaler: down 6.3% Meanwhile, the companies ENABLING AI made money: Nvidia: up Semiconductor stocks: surging Memory firms: rallying The divide is brutal. Hardware companies print cash. Software companies get destroyed. Because in an AI-first world, you need GPUs to build the models. But you don't need software subscriptions when the AI builds the software for you. Jim Cramer called it the "P/E multiple compression crisis." Translation: Investors don't care about earnings anymore. They care about whether your business model survives the next 5 years. And right now software business models look doomed. They're literally stuck: If they DON'T invest in AI, they fall behind. If they DO invest in AI, they cannibalize their own products. It's a death spiral with no exit. ServiceNow spent $12 BILLION on acquisitions in 2025 alone. Trying to buy their way into relevance. And yesterday the market cooked them. The craziest thing to me tho... Most software companies beat earnings. Revenue was solid. Growth was fine. But it didn't matter. Because the market stopped pricing software on what it earns TODAY. It's pricing software on what it's worth in a world where AI does the job for free. And in that world these companies are worth nothing. This is the biggest sector repricing since 2008. $500 billion in market value gone in ONE DAY. And it's not stopping. Because every company watching this is thinking the same thing: "If I can replace ServiceNow with 3 AI agents and save $10 million per year, why wouldn't I?" The answer used to be: "Because you need enterprise-grade reliability." But now? AI agents are getting reliable. Fast. Software companies just realized they're competing with open-source models that cost $0.02 per 1,000 tokens. You can't win a pricing war against free. The companies that spent BILLIONS preparing for AI are getting killed BY AI. What an irony.

Bro @arrahman, why did you work in Chhaava if you knew the film was, as per your statement to the BBC, “divisive”? Is money more important than principles? Trashing a film after profiting from it, how is that fair? Same goes for Saif Ali Khan. He worked in Tanhaji, earned money, and later called the making of movies like Tanhaji a dangerous idea on Anupama Chopra’s show. Why? You can disagree with a film, but doing it after cashing the cheque is just greed disguised as morality.
