The inherent, internalised misogyny is so strong among Indian women that they believe the best way to insult a man’s strength or honour is to call him a woman.

@vaibhavbetter A lot of the traditional, unsexy behemoths also do not have digitised, highly structured processes. So, selling software to them was difficult because every integration had to be bespoke. AI changes the game because it really is a one-size-fits-all.

I love and hate prepping someone for a deposition.

To make them understand how a deposition works, the first question I ask is, “Do you know what time it is?”

Nearly every single time, the person will either check his or her watch, or look up at a clock. Then, they will say “Yes, it is 10:30.”

At this point I just smile and shake my head. “No.” Then, I explain why their answer is wrong:

I asked if they knew the time. Not what time it was currently.

Me: “So what would your answer be then?”

Witness: “Yes.”

Me: “Wrong.”

They didn’t know the time, because they had to look at a watch or clock.

If you are ever deposed and do not have a bitch like me prepping you, remember this key: Listen to the question and answer only what is asked. And only what you actually know or recall.

No charge for this advice.

The two most reliable ways to go viral are to 1) criticize India and 2) criticize remote work.

But who amongst us has the courage to criticize remote work in India?

Serving Bengaluru Beyond Duty

location - Hebbal Flyover starting ramp towards city market airport Road

Today, at around 3:00 PM, heavy rainfall lashed Bengaluru, leading to severe waterlogging and traffic congestion at several locations across the city.

While I was at home, I immediately checked Google Maps to identify the worst-affected areas with heavy traffic and waterlogging. Without waiting for any instruction, I stepped out to assist wherever help was needed.

As a responsible citizen, I firmly believe that traffic management during emergencies is not the responsibility of the Traffic Police alone. During heavy rain and waterlogging, no single department can handle the situation by itself. It is our collective responsibility as citizens to stand together, support one another, and extend a helping hand in the interest of public safety.

Every small effort made for society contributes to saving valuable time, reducing traffic congestion, and, in many cases, protecting lives.

Some of you might remember this effort (check below thread) from one of the most traumatic times of our recent past.

Customs has reclassified these as "imported for personal use" & issued a show cause notice + demand of 35L. Can anyone please help 🙏🏾

@ajay43 Agree. He is one of my favourite cricketers and I am sure he wasn't feeling up to it after the first Test. But this makes life much tougher for NZ in the series.

Sharma's son has been tragically killed in the same region where he bluntly and openly wanted a comprehensive genocide of other innocents by Zionists. His son was killed in a war of choice by those he so admires. Hate begets hate. Violence begets violence. There could not be a starker example.

A French engineer who lives quietly in Paris has spent 30 years writing software that the entire internet now runs on without knowing his name.

He wrote the code that streams every YouTube video, every Netflix show, every TikTok clip. He wrote the code that runs the virtual servers underneath AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. He calculated more digits of pi than anyone in history. He has no Twitter. He has no marketing. He just keeps shipping.

His name is Fabrice Bellard.

Here is the story, because almost nobody outside the systems programming world knows what one man has built.

Fabrice was born in 1972 in Grenoble, France. He studied at École Polytechnique, the top French engineering school. He never went to Silicon Valley. He never built a startup empire. He just wrote code.

In 2000 he started a project called FFmpeg, an open-source multimedia framework for encoding, decoding, and streaming video. He was 28. The project did one thing nobody else had done well. It handled every video and audio format that existed, in one library, on every operating system. He led it himself for years.

Today FFmpeg is the invisible engine of the internet. YouTube uses it. Netflix uses it. VLC uses it. Chrome and Firefox use parts of it. Every Android phone, every iPhone, every smart TV, every video editing tool you have ever touched runs FFmpeg somewhere underneath. If you have watched a video on a screen in the last 20 years, Fabrice's code processed it.

He was not done.

In 2003 he started QEMU, a machine emulator and virtualizer. He wrote it solo until version 0.7.1 in 2005. QEMU lets you run any operating system on any other operating system. It became the foundation of modern virtualization. KVM, the Linux kernel hypervisor, runs on top of QEMU. Every major cloud provider, AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud, runs virtual machines on infrastructure built around it. The Quick Emulator is the most cited piece of cloud infrastructure code on Earth.

He kept going.

In 2001 he won the International Obfuscated C Code Contest with a small C compiler that grew into TCC, the Tiny C Compiler. TCC can compile and boot a Linux kernel from source in under 15 seconds. In 2004 he calculated the most digits of pi ever computed at the time, using a personal desktop computer and an algorithm he derived himself called Bellard's formula. In 2011 he wrote a complete PC emulator in pure JavaScript that runs Linux in your browser, a project called JSLinux that engineers still cannot believe is real.

In 2019 he released QuickJS, a small but complete JavaScript engine that fits where V8 cannot. In 2021 he released NNCP, a neural network based lossless data compressor that immediately took the lead on the Large Text Compression Benchmark.

Then he turned his attention to large language models. He built TextSynth Server, a web server with a REST API for running LLMs locally. He released ts_zip and ts_sms, compression utilities that use language models to compress text and short messages at ratios traditional algorithms cannot reach. He released TSAC, a very low bitrate audio compression system. In December 2025 he released Micro QuickJS, a new JavaScript engine for microcontrollers, separate from QuickJS, designed for environments with almost no memory.

Fabrice co-founded a telecom company called Amarisoft in 2012, where he serves as CTO. Amarisoft builds 4G and 5G base station software used by carriers and labs around the world. He has been running it for over a decade while continuing to ship personal projects from his own home page at bellard dot org

He has no Twitter. He has no Instagram. He gives almost no interviews. His personal website is a flat list of projects with no styling, no fonts, no marketing copy. Just titles and links.

A quiet French engineer who never moved to Silicon Valley wrote the code that quietly runs the internet.

He is still shipping.

Amid heavy rains in Bengaluru last night, a differently-abled youth was struggling to cross a road with gushing water. Police Constable Anil stepped in, stopped traffic and then carried him across to safety.
