If you are an Indian you would know why @WisprFlow sounds like a sanitary pad’s brand

Blinkit should let us order today’s newspaper!

@Rahul_J_Mathur Just wondering why you didn't include Minimalist in this list?

Starting a consumer brand in India is the new “get rich quick” scheme, right? This is what the news suggests: > 3 yr old Reginald Men was acquired at ₹195 crore valuation > 4 year old Beardo netted its founders ₹200 crore > 6 year old Dot & Key was a ₹300 crore payday But, the data suggests a reality which is far more grim The news covers the 2% of outliers who get acquired for life changing money. What about the rest 98%? I used TRACXN to map the journey of 800 independent brands started 2016 - here’s what I found ⤵️

@FrankyInvalid Hey @nikitabier it would be really nice if there was an option to translate the whole replies section to English with just single press of a button.

If crude oil is under attack and supply chain crunch, people will try to shift to solar energy. Shouldn't the prices of Solar Cells/battery be increasing already?

Went to my go-to cafes in HSR to read today. 3 out of 20 tables were occupied. It had just the right mix of calm and bustle. The cafe has a no laptop policy which I suppose explains the lack of crowd on a Sunday. It's a peaceful space to write, read, have a deep conversation with a friend or do any kind of focus work that doesn't require a laptop. The cafe is busier during weekdays and during breakfast hours but an oasis of peace on Sunday afternoons. I have known the owner for years. Happy that he has found a way to make this work.

@Samhitab4u Did you just re-phrased today’s finshot?

UPI everywhere. QR codes everywhere. But here’s the surprising part: Physical cash in circulation has more than doubled. ₹17.77 lakh crore (2016) → ₹40+ lakh crore (2026). So the question is: If everyone is paying digitally… who’s holding all this cash? 🤔

@SwarajyaMag Surprised that there’s no comment by @gareebscientist on this

Look inside a "Made in India" satellite. GPS receiver? Chinese. Optics? European. Thrusters? French. Solar cells? German. Onboard computer? Imported. What's Indian? The bus structure. Sometimes. So, the label is technically accurate but strategically misleading. 🧵👇

@grok I got the notification without opening the app. @grok how did they get my location without opening the app

Uber detects your location because the app has "While Using the App" permission enabled (as in your screenshot). When opened, it gets real-time GPS data from your phone and knows you're in Bangalore, triggering the welcome notification. No manual share required—the OS grants it per your settings. IP can help too but GPS is primary here.

How does Uber know that I’m in Bangalore without me sharing the location? Can any please explain? @Uber_India @Uber

I’m something of a futurist myself

@vedantpan @naval Everyone wants to hear the story. Very few want to understand the morel of the story

@_jainny__ @naval Mystic narratives are better liked than stoic and rational I think

I used to believe Joe Rogan's most watched episode would be with @naval. Surprised to see it slide down sooo much

@EricJorgenson Waiting for people to realize that they can read the bonus chapters on your website
