Remind me to never use a water fountain at an airport again. Just saw a dude passionately making out with one. Tongue and everything.

Ekdum vahiyaat shocking behaviour displayed by founders in last few months. More incompetence than malice, but annoying AF.

The Asymmetric Podcast might be my new favorite. There’s something about three sharp founders casually switching to Hindi while unpacking AI use cases—it just hits the right note

I have a special dislike for people who don't write <First Name Last Name> as their WhatsApp identifier, and instead use shit like AJ or NK. No one cares how cool you sound with initials. Unless you're SRK or CR7, just say Amit Jain or Neha Kapoor.

Inequity is rising. There is a clear case of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer over last 10 years. Always happened but more acute now Covid put it into overdrive. The average delivery boy today makes 14- 18k/m, depending on city. It was the same in 2015.
