I've been spending some time every day reflecting on an idea from Indian philosophy. I used digital poster-making as a tool for thinking. Here they are. Grateful to @StudioCarreras/@Domestika for inspiration. And to @krayker, @msharmas & @sriramvasan . #IndianPhilosophyPosters.

I was talking to an entrepreneur from Tirupur yesterday. He said he used to feel bad that he never went to college, and neither did his son. Then he met @svembu, who told him not to worry because everyone who gives a solution is an engineer. That’s a good definition, right?.

Arvind Subramanian (@arvindsubraman) once used phones as a wealth proxy: .smartphones (top/India 1).feature phones (middle/India 2).no phone (bottom/India 3). Today, I guess it’s AI tools: .$20/month Pro/Plus (1), .free version (2), .none (3). $200/month Max? Super rich.

Superb column. That line about Bryan Johnson reminded me of writer Sujatha. When people told him he didn't look 60*, he'd reply, "You're right, I only look 59." . *"You don't look your age" is a classic way to flatter older folks.
When a man dies on a treadmill, people mutter that it’s nature’s warning against physical exertion. When a woman dies after injecting a potion of youth, it is marketing for the product. But, try as you might, the human face cannot mask its age. My latest.
