@endmyopia Not taking sides of opticians, but there’s a scientific reason why negative power improves with age. Consider it as th number line, with age power moves from left to right, from negative towards zero and then to positive after 40. Here’s slightly technical explanation 👇🏻

You can get rid of your glasses. Glasses are a SUBSCRIPTION. A 140 billion dollar a year business. What's holding you back: Mistake #1: Assuming retail store sales person is medical doctor ("they know best, I'm helpless"). Mistake #2: Accepting clear curved pieces of plastic as a medical device, aka. prescription ("my eyes are diseased, broken") Mistake #3: Not asking "what caused this" and "how does your treatment fix the actual problem." The business model is selling you glasses. Fixing your eyes would destroy the business.

@iamsaurabhdalvi This is one of the best desserts at Paul, gluten free and tastes great…

update for 4 ppl who bookmarked original tweet

Men are not "intimidated" by your degree, your corporate job, your tax bracket, or your fierce independence. They genuinely do not care about your resume. What modern women call "intimidation" is actually just a man walking away because your combative energy, constant need to argue, and refusal to yield is completely exhausting. You aren't intimidating; you are just insufferable to come home to.

@ritujoon2j Owners pay extra while buying properties with better views, PLC…rent is bound to be 5-10% higher…common trend…

I'm looking for a new flat in Bangalore and took the help of a broker. Yesterday, he showed me a really nice property in a good society. There were two flats, almost identical in every way, except one had a beautiful sunset view. Because of that, its rent was 5k higher. Is it common or is it only me who finds it very strange to pay extra just for a sunset view?

@connectgurmeet He will praise everything to get all help from family and friends, get his RCT done, update his KYC at the bank and then immediately fly back without spending a day extra in this country…

A friend came over last night from US..my family was away Ordered milk n groceries from Blinkit in 10 min Chole bhature for breakfast took 30 min A Househelp came from Pronto & took care of House for just 150 Rs for 1 hour. Then drove to Dehradun in just 2.5 hours. all this done digitally using digital payments.. This is ‘Quality of Life’ he remarked!! Actually we don’t appreciate enough!!

@Awwwchallllll Less reading, more action, minimal sharing about action on social media for validation…else it’s just performative…

People who read a lot of books how do you actually retain what you read? I try reading but after 2–3 books, I forget most of it… even powerful lines fade. Like, how do you keep those insights with you and actually apply them later?

@chiragbarjatya That’s why it works well to retire gracefully when you’re performing well. Damaging entire franchise and misusing senior citizen quota for personal gains has caused more harm than good…

What happened to my man. His popularity was on top but likeability seems dropping. Even his followers are trolling him or are silent in majority. What's going on? I feel this is some sort of conspiracy against him.

@Bluebirdeyessss And 6 months before LinkedIn audience...

Using Twitter means knowing the news a week before everyone else

@anulagarwal How is the age of spammers relevant?

they are all indians btw and made a GOOD amount from X :)) (INR 2L-3L/mo) + separately from sponsorships 😅😅 and most under the age of 25 it is just sad to see them get demonetized like this and they did not even see it coming :( i hope they can resolve it soon!

My wife and I were in the SAME place at the SAME time, 4 years before we ever met🤯🤯🤯 I built an app that scans your photo library to reveal every time you crossed paths with someone -- before you ever met! Reply "beta" if you'd like to try it!

@trikcode Because LinkedIn doesn’t exist in reality, it’s a zombie world out there…

anthropic killed this, anthropic killed that, why cant anthropic kill LinkedIn

A proud Gujarati received Canadian Citizenship while doing Garba💃 What I am not able to understand is, if she is so proud of her Culture & Motherland, why she gave up Citizenship of it 😭

@GaundaPunjab When everyone is seriously taking the pledge she is busy giving narcissistic poses to the camera instead of completing the basic requirements…speaks volumes about the seriousness of her attitude towards adopting the new country that’s welcoming her..

I am at a loss for words…imagine dancing like this at citizenship ceremony. The lack of civic sense has no bounds and then doubling down by posting it on social media … 🫠🤷‍♂️🫣

Tenants are not allowed to do structural modifications and parking area is part of real estate bought by the owner, either can be done by understanding with owner and signing a long term lease. Structural modifications in flat costs extra to the owner and involves society specific SOP as per management rules that every owner has to abide by law. Most societies are installing common charging stations to address this and companies are also providing charging services at home…

No charging! That’s a ₹20 lakh+ car… parked like a normal car…bought 3 months ago. But the society has refused to allow him to install a charger… because he lives on rent. Now imagine this. Instead of simply plugging in at home, he has to search for a public charger. What should have been the biggest advantage of owning an EV… home charging… is completely gone. And this is not a one-off story. Even auto creator Gaurav Yadav recently highlighted similar issues in Gurgaon where societies are denying EV charging access in basements, often citing safety concerns or vague rules. The irony is that India’s own EV guidelines actually encourage installation of private chargers in residential parking spaces to promote adoption. So on one side, the government is pushing EVs. On the other side, societies are quietly blocking them. And the worst part? Renters suffer the most. If you own the flat, you can fight it. If you’re on rent, you’re stuck between landlord, RWA and rules that keep changing. This is the hidden cost of EV ownership in India. Until this mindset changes, EV adoption in cities will always hit a wall.

@dekhane_mukul @TCS That's expecting too much from a company that was about to execute this plan...

In fact, @TCS could have filed an FIR against Nida Khan, for having run away with the company Laptop... That's the LEAST any responsible corporate would do... Can any practising HR professional confirm this basic practice missing??!!

Gold level critics of India, and these critics need respect too.. what a craft man. What’s golden standard of criticism..

@coolfunnytshirt Is she the same lady who earlier wrote a critical piece on Dhurandhar and when it was criticized, she wrote a strong complaint to "Governing" body where she herself is a chairperson?

Item song came late in the movie, that's why the leftist liberal intellectuals didn't like Dhurandhar 😭

yesterday while I cooked dinner for my son, he was so mature and said, "one day i’ll help you with bills, groceries, and expenses." my eyes teared up he’s a 33 year old crypto trader
