Indeed, it was *because* I was not from the aerospace industry that SpaceX made such radical breakthroughs. Same for Tesla.
Those in the industry would have if they could have.

In this 2015 interview, the host — a Tsinghua University professor — expressed genuine curiosity about how Elon Musk was able to found SpaceX without prior experience and knowledge in aerospace, especially given that rocket science is one of the most demanding hard sciences — and that Musk was serving as both CEO and CTO. Musk explained that deep expertise can be built outside formal academic programs — by reading extensively, conducting experiments, and speaking directly with experts in the field.

LiveMint: New I-T rules: Taxpayers with overseas income may need CA's certificate; crypto income to come under scanner
Taxpayers would need a CA's certificate in order to claim the foreign tax credit when the amount of tax exceeds 71 lakh. "When
taxpayer has foreign tax paid exceeding ₹1 lakh, then merely providing documentary evidence would not be enough. They would need to submit a CA's certificate to be able to claim foreign tax credit," says CA Chirag Chauhan, founder of CA Chauhan & Company.

British police attempt to arrest a teenager over an illegal Facebook post.
In recent years, thousands of British citizens have been arrested or investigated for social media speech under public order and communications laws. The scale is unprecedented among Western democracies.
This is not about protecting people from harm but about policing speech.
When posting online becomes a police matter, freedom of expression is already on life support.

There are a couple of crucial changes #taxpayers will see from next month. The changes include the requirement for a CA's certificate for foreign tax credit when the amount exceeds ₹1 lakh in a year.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 American Lady tries to Fly to the UK from America
“I went to check-in - I was asked for my Visa”
“I had to answer a load of questions, including what I do for a living, was I a terrorist?”
“The UK are accepting people on boats, who they don’t even know what their name is, or have any record of”

@svembu Why do you give such names - Sarvam? Some may not join only because of this name. When you are building products for consumers around the world and promoting the same on a social med platform where users communicate in English, you might as well choose a name with a global appeal
English
Sarvam's highly competitive AI models illustrate an important point: we must do catch-up R&D, however un-prestigious or thankless it feels and as we start to catch up, innovative new ideas will emerge. Sarvam is on a great trajectory!
This is why we quietly persist in all the efforts we do.

@AnyaRazina1 @Restreamio I took the standard ($16/month). Urging users to upgrade by permanently showing a prompt at the top of the page each time i 'log in' is infuriating. User interface and marketing cant be worse than this.
English
@vimalcjoshi @Restreamio Which plan did you get? Every plan has power — we just can't help ourselves from showing off even shinier ones.
Seriously though, thanks for flagging this. Upgrade prompts shouldn't make paid creators feel like they're on the free tier. Will look into this for u.
English
@Restreamio Even after buying a paid plan, my account keeps pushing me to 'upgrade' to get 'more power', effectively telling me that the current plan is not good enough.
Then why do u even sell this plan in the first place if this doesn't have power? @Restreamio
