Friends, we launched Trivia today on Product Hunt - producthunt.com/products/trivi…. 🙏 😊. If you have time, give it a spin - would love to know your thoughts.

The Japanese shokunin spirit says the same: stay with the craft, not the applause. The accomplishment belongs to the past. The doing belongs to the present. Wrote a short reflection on this: nuances.substack.com/p/the-quiet-jo…

Thanks to “The Artist’s Way”, I’ve been reflecting on how much we chase the feeling of “having done” something, when the real joy is usually in the quiet act of doing it. The Gita reminds us that we only own the action, not the outcome.

@GoogleIndia @googlemaps it’s been more than a week and this review is still not published. Who can help here? Thank you. 🙏🏼

The probability we learned in the school vs the probability that we need for most real world scenarios. Excerpt from the light-hearted book - “Everything is Predictable: How Bayes’ Remarkable Theorem Explains the World” by @TomChivers. Loving it. 😊

Tried applying @shreyas’ Product Sense lessons — not to a product sprint, but to a football match. Pre-game planning, man-marking decisions, team motivations — all shaped by insights from the course. We didn’t win the game. But we avoided an almost certain thrashing. 😅

This is the second book by Sandel that I got to read after “Justice”. Loved both of them and would highly recommend for anyone exploring questions around what’s fair, how to become fair etc. 🙏🏼

A humbling read for me, for someone who always thought meritocracy is the way to go. I wish more economic and political advisors and leaders around the world hear him out with an open mind.

Got a chance to read “The Tyranny of Merit” by American political philosopher and professor Michael Sandel recently and what an amazing read. And the way he ends it - 🤌. #michaelsandel #meritocracy

Just completed the 8-day Product Sense course by @shreyas today, and what a wild ride it has been. 🔥 Grateful to Shreyas and co for putting together such an amazing course - each slide, example, story, line of text, timing, poll, group activity - everything were on point. 🙇

Dedicated to that Google engineer who went above and beyond to get the bulb filter to glow during a @TypitoHQ friday standup on Meet 💡🫡😄 @srijiths89 @MahmoodSad50271

All my life I’ve waited for that moment when I could book a movie ticket without paying the "Internet handling fees" (~% of ticket cost) on @bookmyshow. Then @lifeindistrict came along... and just rebranded it as convenience charges. Dreams do come true. Just not mine...

Full note: nuances.substack.com/p/intentional-…

I call this “intentional serendipity.” It's not just luck. It’s about creating the conditions for insight. Through curiosity, patience, and range.

Five years ago, I wrote some notes and promptly forgot about them. This week, I found them again—and they finally made sense. A short thread on creativity, T-shaped thinking, and the power of intentional serendipity in the age of #AI👇
