I used to admire highly accomplished people. Now I admire people who take nap in the afternoon without explaining it to anyone.

We often talk about what is something that build BY Indians FOR the world. Yes @WisprFlow is just that.

@mainbhiengineer The stupidity of joining a party - when they have peaked years ago. There’s 0 upside. He missed a lifetime chance to make a career bet with huge upside potential.

Raghav Chadha losing more than 2M instgram followers tells us a lot He was at 14.6M before joining to BJP and now at 12.4M. This is like a 16% drop in followers in 2 days. If we assume Instagram has 30% daily active users that means half of the followers who are active on Instagram after the news of him joining BJP, unfollowed him. These are not bots, they are active followers who reacted to the news. Looks like Young voters are not liking anything associated with BJP as this moment. Ofcourse they've not seen any other Govt than Modi Govt in their life, and a population that changes relationship and jobs in every couple of months, you can't expect them to stick to a single party for 15 years. 2029 is going to be interesting.

@KantInEastt The casual jokerification of our culture in last decade needs to be studied.

A Dehati Hindu with Internet is more dangerous than a monkey with a gun

Indian politics is race to the bottom now. Politicians across party lines very well know that what would appease the double digit IQ voter base.

@ValaAfshar @grok who recorded this video? Which Indian city/town is featured here?

This is India, 104 years ago in 1922

@8PMnoCM Not everything is a conspiracy. Incidents at refineries are more common than you think!

@umedpratapsingh Jodhpur is not just the second largest city of the state, but also covers the entire western Rajasthan. Take AIIMS for instance, daily tens of thousands of people from far of villages of Barmer, Jaisalmer, Bikaner, Jalore etc visit Jodhpur, as no other major city nearby

How come there are so many premier institutes in Jodhpur like IIT, AIIMS, NIFT, NLU ? NIT in jaipur and IIM in udaipur. Nothing else. Political lobbying or something else ?

@threeoneonetwo Context matters. If college education is just around the corner, you are parting away with 20% of your wealth. But, if there are 10+ years then that 10 Cr liquid will atleast be 30 Cr. College education won’t hurt much.

Those of you think 10 Crore liquid is enough for retirement with a family. Tumhare bachhe ki US education is going to be 2.5 Cr+ alone without loan.

@zerohedge He will create so many scapegoats to make himself appear smarter

TRUMP SAYS WITKOFF HEADED TO PAKISTAN FOR TALKS TUESDAY: FOX

I've tasted trying to fix people, and I've tasted forcing the truth down their throats. I highly recommend not caring more about people's lives than they do. No one is your assignment. Not even the ones you love.

@kevin2kelly This is my city. Which year is this photo from @kevin2kelly :)

If you detect slightly more people moving in one direction over another, follow them. If you keep following this “gradient” of human movement, you will eventually land on something interesting—a market, a parade, a birthday party, an outdoor dance, a festival. #KKtraveltips

Right now you’re largely experiencing the economy from a time when the Strait of Hormuz was open, because it takes many weeks for oil tankers to traverse the seas. You still experience the Strait as open, even though it’s been closed for weeks. But once that reality hits…

History has taught us that this never ends well

There's a physicist at Stanford named Safi Bahcall who modeled this exact principle and the math is wild. He calls it "phase transitions in human networks." When you're stationary, your probability of a lucky event is limited to your existing surface area: the people you already know, the places you already go, the ideas you've already been exposed to. Your opportunity window is fixed. When you move, your collision rate with new nodes in a network increases nonlinearly. Double your movement (new conversations, new cities, new projects) and your probability of a serendipitous encounter doesn't double. It roughly quadruples. Because each new node connects you to their entire network, not just to them. Richard Wiseman ran a 10-year study at the University of Hertfordshire tracking self-described "lucky" and "unlucky" people. The single biggest differentiator wasn't IQ, education, or family money. Lucky people scored significantly higher on one trait: openness to experience. They talked to strangers more, varied their routines more, and said yes to invitations at nearly twice the rate. The "unlucky" group followed the same routes, ate at the same restaurants, and talked to the same 5 people. Their networks were closed loops. No new inputs, no new collisions. Luck isn't random. Luck is surface area. And surface area is a function of movement. The lobster emoji is doing more work than most people realize. Lobsters grow by shedding their shell when it gets too tight. The growth requires a period of total vulnerability. No protection, no armor, soft body exposed to the ocean. That's the cost of movement nobody posts about. You have to be uncomfortable first. The new shell only hardens after you've already moved.

@8PMnoCM Can someone help with the context?

8 घंटे में 8 सचिवों से मिलने वाले बड़े बाबू UPSC की एक असाधारण चिट्ठी का जवाब तक नहीं दे पा रहे हैं। वजह सिर्फ़ इतनी-सी है कि इस फाइल में मुखिया जी को महज़ ‘चिड़ी बैठाने’ की औपचारिकता करनी है, लेकिन पापड़ मंत्री जी ने अपने तंत्र-मंत्र से उस चिड़ी के पिंजरे पर ताला जड़ रखा है। नादान सिस्टम यह समझ नहीं पा रहा कि पिंजरों में हवा क़ैद नहीं होती और हवा जितनी देर रुकेगी, उतना बड़ा बवंडर बनेगी।

@Pivot2Centre Or just need a good liquidity event. A $250k paying job will become only demanding with time. You will be money but time poor

Literally you can this at $250K comp with 2-3 days work from office mandate. There are thousands of such jobs. This isn’t being rich. This is just being mildly lucky or mildly talented

This kind of original writing in the ChatGPT era feels like a whole new Renaissance

@8PMnoCM This is Jodhpur. Not only Jodhpur, this is the picture of almost every North Indian city. Belt & Rod Initiative needed

After a certain age, your parents slowly become your children. They ask simple questions, repeat stories, and depend on your patience the way you once depended on theirs. Very few understand this role reversal.What looks like innocence or inconvenience is really time coming full circle. Don't correct them harshly. Don't rush them. Care for them the way they once protected you. This is not a burden. It is repayment.

Fun fact: The Dark Knight Rises was shot here This is the most magnificent fort in the world.
