@yesabhijith2 @nsnadeemsarwar This is coming! We have more information in our blog 🙂.

The team and I have spent the past several months analyzing feedback from the community. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better. Read this blog post to learn more about what we're doing in response as we look to raise the bar on Windows 11 quality. Please keep the feedback coming, to help us shape the future of Windows together. blogs.windows.com/windows-inside…

@pavandavuluri Pavan, why is it so shit? You all need to do a deep dive into this. Surely, this isn't new feedback.
Even without the whole AI enshittification, Windows is just terrible.

Nobody owns the Ganga. How does one claim ownership over one’s own mother? To reduce “Maa” to a line item on a real-estate ledger is not just absurd; it is a quiet desecration of a civilizational sentiment.
In the Dharmic Indic world, a river is not a resource; it is a relationship. She is invoked, remembered, and revered; not parceled, priced, or possessed. This is not just faith; rather it is a way of seeing existence itself, where nature is not external property but sacred kin.
The very impulse to declare ownership over Maa Ganga betrays a profound illiteracy of that ethos. It reveals a mind trained to measure land, but incapable of understanding reverence.

@Daalpakwaann @moneyworks4u_fa Sir, very rarely do humble people get to raise funds let alone dream of setting up big business :)

Just give kids nimbu paani. That is enough. What is this electrolytes nonsense?
Chanakya@ChanakyaShah
Swiggy reached out the moment they heard we launched electrolytes for kids. Three days later, I was at their office closing the deal. In under 72 hours we locked in something that will be a category first for them. A real bet they’re willing to take with us. We’re extremely confident about the product. But confidence alone isn’t enough. This one will be backed not just by science, but by people from science. Coming soon…

@Sherveen @aronchick Or the CTO doesn't want to get on Garry's wrong side and thought flattery couldn't hurt.
English
@aronchick No worries -- gstack is just mediocre skills.
Regardless, a CTO impressed by them is unfathomably behind.
There are lots of CTOs that are unfathomably behind, but if Garry is tweeting about it, it's arguably a CTO that should be more modern, not used as a trophy.
English
To be clear --
(1) Garry should be embarrassed for tweeting this.
(2) If it's true, that CTO should be fired immediately.
(3) Whenever I think I've finally hit the bottom of "VCs are mostly stupid + lucky (other than my friends)," one of them manages to find a new bottom.

@pratikpoddar The biggest unlock is still intelligence. Since "AI" is monumentally stupid.

@ayushagarwal @dodopayments These are liars. I know for a fact that internally at @dodopayments , API means Another Pizza Incoming.
So take the above post with a pinch of salt.
English
We just got the wildest conspiracy theory about @dodopayments
Apparently we used to be a pizza place…
and somehow entered the payments market because of “tech” 😭
Reality is less cinematic.
Two founders frustrated with global payments for SaaS and AI businesses decided to build the thing they wished existed.
No pizza.
Just APIs, compliance, and a lot of caffeine.
But if the payments thing doesn’t work out…
maybe we open a pizzeria. 🍕🦤

@ChShersh @abdulazeem_s I can't believe this is the state of software development these days. This utterly useless piece of tech is being compared to Linux.
I am guessing this is the reason.

@abdulazeem_s > what it's actually achieved

lol, lmao

Unironically, I don't know anyone who achieved anything meaningful with OpenClaw
Pirat_Nation 🔴@Pirat_Nation
NVIDIA’s CEO says OpenClaw did in 3 weeks what Linux took 30 years to achieve "OpenClaw is probably the single most important software release ever. If you look at its adoption, Linux took some 30 years to reach this level. OpenClaw, in what is it, 3 weeks, has now surpassed Linux. It is now the single most downloaded open-source software in history, and it took just 3 weeks."

When I was working as an RA, one thing that constantly frustrated me was how much useful data wasn’t public.

@yashpanditrao @malpani @ProximaMumbai @karansehgal47 @DagaKushagra @3FdotVC Really solid forensic take @yashpanditrao

I was looking at strategic pricing for QCom and built this tool to experiment with these dynamics-tweak AOV, discounts, fees, margins → see order profitability, breakeven & sensitivity in QCom.
Try it: strategic-pricing-simulator.vercel.app

We kept hearing the same thing about quick commerce:
“They’re killing it.”
“10-minute delivery has won.”
“Blinkit is profitable now right?”
So instead of debating takes, @karansehgal47 and I wrote the report.

@F2aldi @malikatifsaleem are these models multimodal? can they take images as input?
English
@malikatifsaleem yes, than we have 19k/mo? since this is from Alibaba, same creator with Qwen right?
English
Wow. Alibaba Cloud just launched Coding Plan.
Starting at just $3/month for 18,000 requests.
For that price, you get access to 4 of the best open-weight models right now without needing to subscribe to multiple platforms:
- Qwen 3.5-Plus (multimodal)
- Kimi K2.5 (multimodal)
- GLM 5
- MiniMax M2.5

@NsNitinsinha Come to the hills and you will realise that these bright colors are at home there.

As a car enthusiast, I actually don’t fully agree with the logic of launching cars in colors “nobody will buy.”
Because cars are not just products. Cars are emotion.
When a brand like Tata Motors launches something like the Tata Punch EV in a loud yellow, it’s a turn off.
Most Indian buyers are practical. We think about resale value, heat absorption, dust visibility, maintenance, and how the car will look after 5 years.
White, silver, grey and black dominate our roads for a reason. They are safe, timeless and easy to live with.
So when brands showcase a wild color at launch, it can feel disconnected from the real buyer. Almost like they are designing for Instagram reels.
As enthusiasts, we care about stance, design lines, proportions, road presence. Sometimes a loud launch color hides the actual design.
A clean white or deep metallic grey often shows the surfacing and details better. That’s when you truly judge the car.
Also, first impression matters.
The launch color becomes the face of the car. If people don’t emotionally connect with that shade, the car may start with a slightly negative bias “looks too funky even if it’s a solid product.
Yes, bold colors grab attention. But sometimes subtle confidence makes a stronger statement.
In India, a car that looks classy on day one and still looks classy after 8 years is the design I admire.
P.S.: Tata Punch EV is a solid product.

@shydev69 This should be easy to do, right?

@GreenDrvIndia I mean looks are an important consideration, and that is completely subjective.

Punch ev pricing. There is no point buying any ice car between 9 to 15 lakh if monthly running is 1000 km.
