Today is the 106th death anniversary of the amazing genius, Srinivasa Ramanujan. Ramanujan passed away at a young age of 32 on April 26, 1920, at Kumbakonam in Tamil Nadu. Hardy compared #Ramanujan with mathematical geniuses such as Euler and Jacobi. Thread I had compiled in 2020: x.com/aparanjape/sta…

I came back. Many of my classmates did too. Each of us had a dream to give back to our motherland.
All of them regretted it. Most of us left decades ago because TamilNadu did not want us, value us, miss us.
When we came back, we still were unwelcome.
Many of them went back. A few refuse to admit failure, we fight on... clinging to the blind hope that somehow we can be architects of change... but everyday we fail a little more.
India is terrible to do business in. It is impossible to stay honest and feel proud about it. Here, integrity is considered a liability !
My stomach turns everytime I see a millionaire gloats his way to govt freebies... because he is rich enough to game the system
My heart bleeds everytime I see government officials steal, embezzle, exploit and extort... from rich and poor alike.
My will wanes everytime I see parents falsifying their caste papers... building a future for the next generation on the foundation of deceit...
And my hope dies when this is all considered not shameful, but 'smart' and 'successful'.
India is a cesspool of Social Injustice- where merit is shoved out by vote politics .
Justice in India is lost in the corridors of our judiciary. Here, the process is the punishment.
After I was hit with fake criminal cases and put in jail - 'to teach me a lesson'- I had no choice but to send away my kids.... yet I hold on, stay on, but at what cost? how much longer? Not many others can boast my kind of resilience... or perhaps foolhardiness.
What has this country done for selfless social warriors except ugly deaths and oblivion?
What has it done for it's academics ? It cast away entire generations of top scientists and economists who only wanted to do their job and not jump through the hoops of bureaucracy.
Please remove your rose colored glasses and come up with a realistic solution. I will be the first to sign up.

Dear GC Indians, don't believe this, don't trust this.
This is a trap, Zoho pays like 1/5th what a GCC pays for similar positions.
Get your passport & leave.
BJP & their regional cohorts want to completely eliminate GCs at all costs, they know we're on the ropes already.

Open letter to Indians in America. -- Dear brothers and sisters from Bharat: Like I did 37 years ago, you arrived in America with no money but with a good education and cultural heritage from Bharat. You achieved outstanding success. America was good to us. For that we must remain grateful - gratitude is our Bharatiya way. Yet today, a significant number of Americans, may be not the majority but not too far from it either, believe that Indians "take away" American jobs and our success in America was unfairly earned. You may think the next election will fix this, but your choice would be between people who hate our Bharatiya civilisation and people who hate civilisation itself. That is the "hard right" vs "woke left" battle. You are mere bystanders to that conflict. Meanwhile there is one thing that is true now and will be true in the future: the respect Indians command world-wide will substantially depend on the fortunes of India herself. If India remains poor, the woke left will give us moral lectures with pity and the hard right, different moral lectures with scorn ("hellhole") and we must not confuse either with respect. Respect in today's world, along with prosperity and security, comes from one source: a nation's technological prowess. India produces sufficient brain power to achieve that prowess but alas we exported so much of that talent, particularly to America. As we develop that prowess in India, our civilisational strength will assert itself. As difficult as it is for many of you to contemplate this, please come back home. Bharat Mata needs your talent. Our vast youthful population needs the technology leadership you gained over the years to guide them towards prosperity. Let's do it with a missionary zeal. Respectfully Sridhar Vembu

Rahul Sir making good pointsl. Which is also the reason I'm not ruling out the online h@tr3d against Indians is in-part the work of Indian govt themselves.
I have seen Bhajipao in tandem with DMK shutting down subreddits that starts to question the babu/politico/landlord nexus

Had a Jane Street interview in 2013 that still bothers me.
It was my 6th round. Final interview. The guy walks in carrying no laptop, no notebook, just a cold brew and what I later realized was a single IKEA tea candle.
He writes on the whiteboard:
food: $200
rent: $800
utilities: $150
candles: $3,600
family: dying
Then he turns around and says, “Optimize.”
I laughed because I thought it was a culture-fit bit. He did not laugh.
So I said, “Well, obviously you spend less on candles.”
He says, “Assume candles are non-discretionary.”
Okay.
I start building a model. Basic constraint satisfaction. Family survival as a soft penalty. Candles as a state variable. Maybe there’s an arbitrage where you buy wholesale paraffin and convert the $3,600 line item into inventory.
He stops me.
“You’re thinking like a consultant.”
That’s when I knew I was in trouble.
He says, “Give me a bid-ask on family dying.”
I say, “What?”
He says, “You’re long candles, short family. Where do you make markets?”
I try to recover. I say the real issue is liquidity: rent and utilities are fixed, food is elastic, candles are emotionally inelastic. Therefore the optimal strategy is to securitize future candle enjoyment and borrow against it.
He nods for the first time.
Then he asks, “What time do you sell the candles?”
I say, “Whenever the market is liquid?”
He says, “Be more specific.”
I say, “Uh… 10 a.m. Eastern?”
For the first time, he smiles.
He goes, “Every day?”
I say, “Every day.”
He says, “In size?”
I say, “In size.”
He says, “And what do we call that?”
I say, “Market manipulation?”
The room gets very quiet.
He looks disappointed and writes something down.
“No. We call it providing liquidity to candle ETFs during the U.S. cash open.”
I try to save it. “Right. Of course. The family isn’t dying because we underfunded them. They’re just experiencing temporary price discovery.”
He nods again.
Then he points back at the board.
I had missed it. The utility bill was $150, but candles provide light. You can zero out utilities.
I update the budget:
food: $200
rent: $800
utilities: $0
candles: $3,750
family: still dying, but now in a more capital-efficient way
He says, “How confident are you?”
I say, “0.95.”
He smiles and circles candles.
“0.95 huh?”
Then he asks me to estimate how many leveraged longs get liquidated if we dump $3,750 of candles at 10:00:01 every morning for 90 consecutive trading days.
Needless to say I did not get the offer.

Jane Street made ~$40B in 2025 with 3,500 employees, a ~2x from the year before. At ~65-70% profit margin, that's $8M profit / employee, the highest for a 1000+ ppl company. High-frequency trading continues to be the most efficient money making engine. I want to share an old story about my Jane Street interview in 2014. Jane Street was known for hiring a lot of math, physics and CS olympiad winners from top universities and putting them through many rounds - including, for trading roles, a gauntlet of mental math. It was my 6th interview and my final round and I recall being asked "What is the next day after today in DD/MM/YYYY where all the digits are unique?" They'd toy with you and say "You can use a pencil and paper, if you want" but you knew that was an instant no. Painstakingly and as quickly as I could, I came to an answer. "How confident are you that this is correct on a 0-1 probability scale?" the interviewer said. "0.95", I blurted out, not fully knowing how to answer that. "Are you sure?" After thinking harder for a few more seconds, I realized I could've flipped the digits around to get a closer date. I gave the interviewer my answer. It was correct. "0.95 huh?" he chuckled. That's when I knew I failed. Note: fwiw, other companies that come close in efficiency are - Tether ($90M+ profit/emp) - Hyperliquid ($80M+ profit/emp) and on revenue: - Valve ($50M/emp) - OnlyFans ($37M/emp) - Craigslist ($14M/emp) - Anthropic ($12M/emp, run rate) - OpenAI ($8M/emp, run rate) For comparison, Nvidia is very efficient at scale and is $4.4M/emp.

This is exactly what Bangladeshi "Firebrand Communists" did, only to have 50 or so "Leftist Intellectuals" be systematically & brutally m0rdered over a period of 6-8 months in the mid 00s, by hardline Islamists.
I'm talking literal disembowelment in broad daylight type of stuff.

It’s sad how so many Germany-Jewish veterans were betrayed by their country. German Jews volunteered at very high rates in WWI. It was a Jewish lieutenant who actually recommended Adolf Hitler for the Iron Cross - Hugo Gutmann

Manmohan is one of the worst for giving control of country to Sonia who ran it into ground with her SJWism.
