The tragedy in Chhattisgarh is deeply painful. 20 families have lost everything. Proper compensation, livelihood support for the families, and a thorough investigation are non-negotiable.
But naming Shri @AnilAgarwal_Ved Ji in the FIR before any investigation raises serious concerns. He is a self-made man from a humble and backward community background who built a global enterprise from scratch. He had no role in that plant's operations.
When accidents happen in PSU plants or Railways, do we name the Chairman? We do not. The same standard must apply to the private sector too.
Investigate first. Establish responsibility based on evidence. Then act.
India's #ViksitBharat vision needs people like Shri Anil Agarwal to keep investing and building. That happens only when investors trust the system. 🇮🇳

The three main parts of my leadership course are going to be so fun and powerful to dive into:
1. The private life of leaders: how to think so well it’s scary
2. The team life of leaders: how to deliver clarity, create alignment, foster group genius, and generate extreme intrinsic motivation
3. The public life of leaders: how you and your team help the world experience hope and success they wouldn’t without you.
And then it all ends with super tactical tools to bring all of this to life.
What part resonates most with you?

Great write-up! Filed a real-world discoverability issue that validates what @codylundai said about Claude skipping relevant skills.
I spent 2 sessions doing heavy PDF work (pypdf, reportlab, fitz) — Claude never suggested the PDF skill. When I asked why, Claude itself said "no PDF skill exists." Took 3 rounds of web searching to find it was buried inside document-skills in a marketplace not added by default.
The compound problem: hidden marketplace + bundle naming + no /plugin search + no auto-suggestion = invisible skills.

Using Skills well is a skill issue.
I didn't quite realize how much until I wrote this, the best can completely transform how your team works.

@vaibhavbetter True that. I agree with the direction. We are building for AI Native Supply Chain Orchestration tools - focussed on Consumer Brands in India..

@paraschopra humans are so hardwired and conditioned for status games. While they (games) have always been pointless on long horizons of lifescale - it would be a hard realization in post ai world.. I would hope we progress into a world where we do things for the heck of doing it 🤞

Struggle feels meaningful because it’s an early indicator of acquisition of relevant skills that help acquire resources, allies and mates - this is why evolution made mastery of something a source of dopamine.
But today this link between struggle and expertise is getting uncoupled. For each hand crafted essay, there are a thousand of other AI generated near-indistinguishable replicas that were generated with minimal struggle.
So, why get better at coding, writing, music etc when others can simply prompt their way to a similar quality?
This feeling is a precursor to the meaninglessness crisis that’ll become harder to ignore as AIs become better at literally everything we do.
What to do and why to do are the ultimate questions humanity will have to face.

@elonmusk This really scares me. Most humans are gonna be like helpless animals existing at mercy of few individuals.

@vasuman i vibecoded a study app for cbse grade 8 students adopting priciples of active retreival, spacd repetetion, mastery learning taking inspiration from math academy. it took me about 30-40 hours of my time which would have taken not less than 20-30 lacs in pre ai coding workflow.

Trying something new: starting a group chat dedicated to agents (and to a lesser extent, vibe coding).
To get in, you must be qualified, must have built/shipped something real with quality (tell me what that is in the comments).
Absolutely 0 exceptions. Need this group chat to be high signal and low noise, for the sake of everyone in it. Otherwise it dies in 2 days.
Good indicator: I built a memory layer for agents, here's the GitHub link.
Bad indicator: I vibe coded this thing that took 5 seconds and no one including myself finds any value in it.
Please comment with a few words if you are interested.

I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. Lots of people have asked how I use Claude Code, so I wanted to show off my setup a bit.
My setup might be surprisingly vanilla! Claude Code works great out of the box, so I personally don't customize it much. There is no one correct way to use Claude Code: we intentionally build it in a way that you can use it, customize it, and hack it however you like. Each person on the Claude Code team uses it very differently.
So, here goes.

@evanlapointe thanks Evan. i think i fall in this bucket.. Can you point to relevant resources..

How to grow the most in 2026, depending on your persona:
Visionary - get a coach. They will teach you that the issue is how you communicate.
Craftsperson - get a mentor from a *different* craft. They will teach you that the issue is your community is collectively missing the point.
Operator - get a therapist. They will teach you that the issue is you are actually deeply afraid.

@arindam___paul thats why its an imperative for brands to invest into their d2c channels involving both demand gen as well as supply chains. we at CJ Darcl are launchign exactly that - 4 hours delivery for brands..
English

One thing that has accelerated with the rapid growth of Quick-com is the move from "brand first" to "availability first" in many many categories
Remember the last time when you wanted to order an ice-cream or a chocolate or a yogurt or a sunscreen or gym gloves from your choice of q-com app. And you found that the brand you wanted to order was out of stock. What did you do? Did you change your choice of q-com app or did you go for whichever brand was available?
Very high chance you bought whatever brand was available because you don't remake your basket from scratch in another app just because 1/2 brands were not available. I for instance wanted to buy Epigamia yogurt last week on Blinkit. Wasn't available and bought Milky Mist
And once this happens at scale and quick-com becomes bigger and bigger, both profitability metrics and the valuation premium for brands will taper down. I honestly don't think any new age brand in BPC or Food or any category with big Q-com contribution will ever be able to get to the EBITDA levels where the incumbents are today. Most likely the incumbents will not be maintain their EBITDA levels. And the EV/EBITDA multiples will also contract
If Q-com continues to grow( looks the consensus view), the biggest value transfer in the next 2 decades in the Indian markets will most likely be from FMCG brands to Q-com portals

vertical AI agents are going to be a BIG opportunity in 2026 and here’s why (save + read this 2x):
the market is flooded with horizontal tools trying to do everything. bloated. generic.
and most are TERRIBLE.
the real money is in specialized agentic systems that solve one bottleneck in one industry.
here are some examples:
• an agent that handles client intake for personal injury firms. qualifies leads, books consults, sends follow-ups. replaces 15 hours/week of admin work.
• an agent that processes RFQs for construction companies. reads specs, pulls pricing, generates quotes. cuts response time from 2 days to 2 hours.
• an agent that manages patient scheduling for dental practices. handles cancellations, fills gaps, sends reminders. no more front desk phone tag.
each system sells for $10K+. deploys in weeks. and copies across every similar business in the vertical.
why vertical wins:
• easier sale. “built for law firms” beats “built for everyone.”
• higher prices. specialists charge more. always have.
• less competition. everyone builds generic. nobody goes deep on HVAC or assisted living.
• faster delivery. build once, deploy dozens of times. 80% code reuse.
• compounding expertise. you learn the edge cases. you fix problems before clients notice.
horizontal AI is commoditized. vertical is wide open.
TLDR: pick an industry. find the bottleneck. build the agent. own that niche.
RT + comment “ALPHA” and I’ll send a playbook on selling AI to businesses (must follow so I can DM)

INDIA, INTERNET, INTERNATIONAL
If you're Indian, don't move to America.
Because the US left hates technocapitalists.
And the US right wants no more immigrants.
Moreover, as the sovereign debt crisis worsens...
It only gets worse. Possibly murderously worse.
So: Indian immigrant technocapitalists need alternatives. And there are three options: India, Internet, and International.
1. India
India itself is the world's fastest growing economy, with the #1 growth rate in the world over the last 10 years. Every major company is investing in India. So you can do well in the Indian economy:
2. Internet
The Internet is taking over from a fading NYSE/NASDAQ as the world's largest capital market. The decline of Delaware and NYC accelerate this; everyone from Elon to Elad Gil to a16z to Dropbox have moved out of Delaware for incorporation, and Mamdani is catalyzing a capital exodus to Miami.
So: the US is no longer a stable place for capital formation. And Solana and Ethereum already put Indians on a level playing field with the entire world, with digital rule-of-law. No one can discriminate against you in a smart contract simply for being Indian, so you can do well in the Internet economy:
3. International
Finally, at the exact moment that the US has stopped recruiting tech talent while India is generating enormous amounts of it, the rest of the world is opening their doors to digital nomads.
Dozens of places from the UAE to Singapore have created many different kinds of talent visas. And so Indian technologists have begun rerouting there, especially to Dubai and Singapore. So that's the third option: the International economy:
In short: do not expect the US to suddenly become more friendly towards immigrant capitalists. The long-term financial outlook is not good, so America is unfortunately no longer a good place to build a stable life and a career. Which is why Americans themselves are in a zero-sum mentality.
You can't fix that.
Instead, if you're an Indian technologist, rely only on TCP/IP rather than H-1B. And build yourself up in India, on the Internet, or internationally.
