ByteDance just dropped Seedance 1.0, their new video-gen model. Early benchmarks place it as SOTA on motion and coherence. I dug into their various product lines - absolutely mindblown by the scale of each one of them. The company is so much more than TikTok and Douyin:. TikTok:.

Its bad enough that people die due to epidemics, illnesses, droughts, floods, cyclones, landslides. Its worse when they die because they've been fed endless nonsense about how great it is to "wear the shirt" (an overpriced crap shirt) of some wealthy sports franchise. .

Neeraj framed SolarSquare Energyโ€™s ambition with the perfect India analogy:. โ€œWeโ€™re building the next Maruti or Titan, brands that generations trust without reading the fine print.โ€. Indian rooftop solar is the fastest growing consumer market in India (yes, even faster than.

โ€œLet us try and give it a shot. Unless we try, how will we know how good we are?โ€. When a comprehensive history of Indian cricket is written, this quote may become the title of one of the longest chapters.

One stat in Urban Companyโ€™s DRHP jumped out at me:. The top 5% of service professionals earn INR 50,000 / month - coincidentally, the income at which you would be classified as top 5% by income in India. All this while working 40 hours/week on average. The average service

I havenโ€™t heard a more odious take on the ecosystem in a while. Blaming founders absolves the government of its failure to foster any meaningful ecosystem for manufacturing or deep tech in the country. Worse, it belittles the grit of those who build for and in India (including in.

Have heard too many people being bearish on the India venture opportunity. The problem is that while they may invest in India - their reference point is valley. Comparing whatโ€™s happening there vs our market inevitably leads to disappointment. Itโ€™s short sighted. On the other.

Here we go again. Movie ticket prices at multiplexes will be fixed like agriculture and food produce? Ridiculous. This is a disastrous move, and will damage business owners who have made investments based on certain assumptions about what they can charge their customers. The
