[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

I’m thrilled to introduce @PurvX_ , a South Asian-centric marketplace. We’re reshaping the way South Asian fashion, decor, and more are bought, sold, and even rented. Our mission is to create a more sustainable and culturally rich marketplace ecosystem. #Startup #marketplace

Not Sabyasachi presenting denim vest jackets on the NYFW runway that look exactly like the one I wore 20 years ago.

You know how there are a million reasons two people might not be compatible?

I have a very specific one:

Pet incompatibility.

I’m a dog person.
If you’re a cat person, we’ve already found our dealbreaker. 😂

Breakups suck but have you ever been in love with a product and they discontinued it?

China visas are definitely not easy for Indian passport holders. Sourcing trip is a mess coz half the group got the pre-approval or whatever it is, the rest didn't.

I was so sick of Apple's laziness that last year I took the plunge and switched to Samsung Z Flip 7 after having iPhones since 2008. And I am so glad I did. I didn't wait around for Apple to white label Samsung and sell it for almost twice as much.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

We knew what Apple were going to release but honestly this is the most lame and lazy new iPhone they have ever launched.

They white labeled the Samsung Fold 8 and called it the iPhone Duo.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

The pricing is crazy.

[MacRumorsLive @macrumorslive]

iPhone Duo is priced starting at $1,999. 256GB starting storage. Preorders start Oct 16, launch Oct 23.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

So they just copy pasta Samsung?!

[MacRumorsLive @macrumorslive]

There's a camera preview feature so your subject can see what they look like. You can also play little animations when getting a photo of kids. Smart Take lets you pose with a group and then takes the image automatically.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

Basically what Samsung foldables have been doing for years now.

[MacRumorsLive @macrumorslive]

iPhone Duo lock screen puts more focus on the wallpaper with buttons on the side. Apple apps are optimized for iPhone Duo. Can move an app to one side and launch a second app on the other. Or launch a second window of the same app like Safari for comparison shopping. Can pair the apps to get back to them later when you tap on the divider.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

Like the iPhone 13 mini?! If yes, then I want one.

[MacRumorsLive @macrumorslive]

iPhone Duo's inner display is 7.6 inches, 50% larger than iPhone 18 Pro Max. Inner display is 5.4 inches. Apple Pencil with USB-C is supported on either display (coming later this year). Touch ID is integrated into the side button.

I think there are two types of founders. The ones who want to build. The others who want to be seen building.

[Michael Luo @AzianMike]

Funny how much attention goes to the "hottest" YC companies.

Airbnb struggled to raise. DoorDash nearly ran out of cash raising its seed.

Being good at getting investors excited and being good at building a company are two different skills.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

@SKoenegracht @align_all @Truecaller No, I don’t think they had my number on a list. I think they were getting access to it through Truecaller. Once I deleted the app, they no longer had access to my number and the calls stopped almost immediately.

This couldn't be more real. This is the most accurate description of the SF dating scene.

[Jake Kozloski @jakozloski]

SF is full of people trying to cure aging so they can spend another 200 years figuring out if they’re ready for a relationship.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

People have forgotten how to banter.

You say something cheeky, they say “ok” and you’re left wondering if you’re flirting with a person or conducting a survey.

At this rate, forget chemistry. We need to start asking ChatGPT how to create it.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

Less than 10 people have my direct number. I ended up on the spam call list as soon as I installed Truecaller.

Now I realise what my dad meant by being careful on Indian highways.

In Australia, you drive assuming everyone else knows the rules.

In India, you drive assuming someone, somewhere, may suddenly do something unexpected.

That's a very different kind of defensive driving.

[Pooja | PurvX.com @Pooja_PurvX]

My dad warned me when I started driving on Indian highways, after driving in Australia, to never assume the right lane is the fast lane. In Australia, you move over, give way and never block it. Driving slowly in the right lane could get you fined.
