In the end, 2 things that push you forward are: Curiosity to know & desire to build. Repeat that many times and you'll see wonders happen. #ThoughtForTheDay

Currently watching grown adults throw toddler-level tantrums at the BLR gate for Indigo flight to Goa. Here is a reality check for everyone losing their minds over a delay: 1. That 22-year-old ground staff member you are abusing isn't hiding the plane in her pocket. 2. You booked a budget airline, not a private jet. Sit down. 3. I’d rather arrive in Goa 2 hours late than never arrive at all. The level of entitlement here is embarrassing. Indigo groundstaff also don't want to deal with this. Be better. Stop treating service workers like your personal punching bags.

I wanted to buy the iPhone 17 Pro Max in Orange, and it's out of stock EVERYWHERE in BLR. Then I remembered that someone in a WhatsApp group that I'm in gave me free access to Swiggy's Crew app, so I decided to see if it would work. Got a message from them this morning that they've found a place that can deliver it to me on Monday! This is NOT a paid promotion. I know this post would come off as one, so I'm having to over-explain. If it was sponsored, I would disclose it. I'm just genuinely impressed that it worked and it saved me a lot of time and manual labour.

Coordinators who handle the paperwork. And care teams who stay with you through it all. Come experience the difference. 💙

PromptForge: The ultimate prompt engineering workbench producthunt.com/products/promp… by @InsaaniManav

A few weeks back, prompted by all the "AI makes dev work 10x easier" hype, I surveyed 8 engineers - from senior ICs to startup CTOs. They work at decacorns, public tech cos, and YC-backed startups across the US, EU, and India. Screenshots below include the full summary + direct quotes (hence the spelling errors😂). Findings: ⚡ Big wins for green-field code, boilerplate, tests, docs 😬 Mixed results in legacy codebases (hallucinations, diff review overhead, fatigue) 👩‍💻 Seniors lead adoption; juniors still hesitant or miss subtle bugs 🛠 Cursor, Claude, Copilot, Perplexity were the top tools mentioned Curious how your experience compares? 🤔

🙏 Incredible feedback from @chrismessina on @ProductHunt! Local inference with LM Studio/Ollama is going straight to the roadmap - cost-free prompt engineering should be accessible to everyone! Thank you for the suggestion! #PromptEngineering #ProductHunt

🚀 Just launched PromptForge on @ProductHunt! Stop writing prompts from scratch. Let AI help you craft better prompts, then systematically test them. ✨ AI-powered generation 🔍 Smart analysis 🧪 Systematic evaluation Check it out - producthunt.com/products/promp…

@ObenElectric your after sales service is not picking call from last 30 mins. My bike is stuck on road and i need road side assistance. Please prioritize customer service!! This is the 2nd issue in 1 month.

@ObenElectric has the worst road side assistance service. My pickup cannot be done for 24 hours and i am stuck on road side. Please don’t sell bikes if you cannot fulfill a customer’s request. Also, your HSR store manager is not helpful at all.

It is easy to criticise consumer internet startups in India, especially when you compare them to the deep technical excellence being built in US/China. Using our example, the reality is this: there are almost 1.5 Lakh real people who are earning livelihoods on Zepto today - a company that did not exist 3.5 years ago. ₹1,000+ Crores of tax contribution to the government per year, over a billion dollars of FDI brought into the country and hundreds of crores invested in organizing India's backend supply chains (especially for fresh fruits and vegetables). If that isn't a miracle in Indian innovation, I honestly don't know what is. Why doesn't India have its own large-scale foundational AI model? It's because we still haven't built great internet companies. Most technology-led innovation over the past 2 decades has originated from consumer internet companies. Who scaled cloud computing? Amazon (originally a consumer internet company). Who are the big players in AI today? Facebook, Google, Alibaba, Tencent etc. (all started as consumer internet companies). Consumer internet companies drive this innovation because they have the best data, talent, and capital to put behind it. We need to build great local champions in internet that are generating hundreds of millions of dollars in FCF first if we ever want to get a piece of great technology revolutions. The startup ecosystem, the government, and the owners of large pools of Indian capital need to actively support the creation of these local champions, not pull down the teams that are trying hard to get there. Zepto is still far away from being a great Internet company that can hold a candle to the global best. But we are executing day in and day out to get there. I can promise that any capital we generate from this business (and it honestly looks like we will) will be invested towards long-term innovation and value creation in India. That is essentially what I am dedicating the next few decades of my life to try to do: create dynamism in the Indian economy and our capital markets, in the same way the Americans have for decades. We have the talent and capital; we just need the execution.
