@scottew All people saying reading don't realize that reading itself is a passive mental exercise. Sure you gain something by watching a game but is not in the same league as playing the game. Read to know the rules & apply those rules to solve challenging problems.

Here are some things offhand that I am guessing build intellectual fitness: - Read longer works, especially books, especially older ones that have complicated sentences. - Write a letter or longer email to someone. - Do "mental math" for no reason, trying to calculate something before the answer is given to you. - Listen to or read material that is more complicated than you are used to. - Try to repair something that's broken. - Write long-range plans. - Have a very long conversation with one person (this is a top 3 reason to do road trips btw). - Memorize stuff.

Over the last century physical fitness stopped happening naturally, and people have had to build exercise habits to offset naturally sedentary lives. We're now entering a default sedentary era for intellectual fitness, and we need to build intellectual exercise habits somehow.

@GabbbarSingh Still not an excuse to not build any of those. Yes make them better, Cover with a green shade, put regular cooling stations on the footpath, and above all make sure that on good weather days people love to just get out and about on these

One thing I realized during this Euro heatwave. No amount of greenery, mountains, historical monuments, well managed footpaths, public transport seems nice when the temperature feels like 40 degrees. Everything is a pain. That’s where India loses out.

@svembu We hv brains just like any other country in the world. Competition is about training. Economic growth leads to better training. Now that we hv trained physicists how do we nurture their talent? Do we have cutting edge research facilities like CERN? Or r&d heavyweight like Google?

Amazing news. This is why I am so optimistic about India. We have the brain power to solve our problems - and lead the world in solving the world's problems. Pessimists who do not believe should watch from the sidelines as the optimists get it done!

@Nithin0dha No doubt about the fact that we will grow old before getting rich but the economy will be most likely managed by older people then who will not be getting a lot of those pension benefits and retirement age will be 70 in most workplaces. The West will show us the way for that

By 2039, every Indian state will fall below the replacement fertility rate, with Bihar being the last to cross this milestone. The evidence shows that fertility is tightly linked to income and education. Poorer and less educated populations tend to have more children and vice versa. The replacement fertility rate (usually 2.1) is the average number of children each woman needs to have to keep a population's size the same over time, where new births perfectly cancel out deaths. There's also evidence suggesting that fertility rates are falling faster than most projections. This is a particular challenge for India, where there's still a vast gulf between the prosperous South and the poorer North. The ultimate question is, will we grow old before we grow rich?

@TennisTV @janniksin @AlexZverev The most boring Wimbledon ever. My guess is finals is going to be finished in straight sets and even possibly without any set going to a tie break just like the semis

@ShivAroor We hv to believe that elected representatives represent the society at its best or its worst. Beating up people, destroying property has very high level of tolerance/acceptance among the people who voted for this guy then. Best to stay out of such places, if possible

This is what socialism looks like, folks. The right answer isn’t restrictions or mandates. It’s drilling, fracking, coal, & nuclear. That’s how we’ll roll in Ohio. (And he sounds eerily just like Amy Acton during Covid).
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor

New York: it's hot out there, and the power grid is working overtime to keep us cool. Set your AC to 78 degrees, turn off lights/electronics you're not using, and unplug what you can. Our City is doing its part too: maintaining the 78 degrees rule in our buildings, dimming/turning off our lights during peak electricity demand, asking private partners to do the same, and powering down non-essential equipment. A stable grid means the AC stays on, and lives are saved. Let's ease demand — and get through the heat — together.

@GabbbarSingh Getting rich in India has diminishing returns. At best u can live in a decent island of a house, insulate yourself from the city i.e. build a 5 star jail. The simple luxury of stepping out to enjoy a nice weather without running into broken system requires society wide affluence

We were sitting by the Lake. A family - A guy in his 40s, with two young kids, a son & a daughter, and his wife, arrived in a small motor boat, it was a fancy pink 4 seater, beige seats etc the understated luxury. The family calmly docked the boat, at a private bay, every family member knew the drill, the boy helped the little girl off the boat, the mother picked the rope, the father tied the stern line to the dock. None of them had any sense of amusement on their faces, it was as if they were driving to a supermarket. They got down, had some food & drinks, (a glass of water cost 4.5 Francs) kids played around, and left in the same boat, into the sunset. Generational wealth of your family, is not enough, your country should also have generational wealth. The former can give you such a lifestyle in any other country, but the latter decides that you do it all without a speck of emotion. Routine.

@shilpa_khopade That's the cruel tragedy. Sympathy is always for the minority even if they are on the wrong side. Letting them in wud still have been unjust to others who followed the rules. Ppl driving on wrong side, jumping queues,breaking rules should be punished not rewarded for being clever

@mygovindia Undoubtedly middle class has been able to mobilize up. And infra development is slow but surely there catching up with aspirations of the rising middle class. Full credit to the Govt there. Now the infra quality is lacking in many aspects e.g. education, health, urban spaces etc

@sandygrains If someone is considered innocent by an impartial court of justice (German), why should we watch that guy with a criminal lens just bcoz some virtue signalling individual think so? U may argue the case was settled for a sum bt is that all the victim wanted in the name of justice?

No one who achieves any degree of fame or celebration in India has a backbone for any basic issue if the fame is rewarded with wealth.
Sachin Tendulkar@sachin_rt

Sometimes tennis can take a long time to give back what players keep putting in. Good to see Alexander Zverev win his first Grand Slam at Roland-Garros today. Always felt he was a special player! Credit to Flavio Cobolli for the way he competed today as well. Both players gave everything to the game. 👏
