I’m not cool,
I’m upright yet diplomatic,
I’m too sincere for this real world.
I’m logical and boring.
I’m that person who will read textbooks starting chp 1 to end, cannot do selective learning nor listening.
I give all in or none!
I get consumed by ill-around, so I🧘♀️/ 🗣/ 🛌

#EconTwitter#AcademicTwitter#Notes for self,
My conversations with Meta AI (default feature) on WhatsApp. Quite evident that these platforms have highest likelihood to 'replace' rather than 'complement' human connections.
In its own words:
1. Exacerbate social isolation by reducing face-to-face interactions.

💬 @jessaganda, Asesora de ONU Mujeres, destaca cómo la región lidera en igualdad de género gracias a las estadísticas de género. 'Generosidad, consistencia y compromiso definen este evento', señala en el 25° Aniversario del #EncuentroEstadísticasDeGénero. #25AñosDeAlianzas
The best research on India is written by the @RBI and it's called the RBI Bulletin (very similar to BOE bulletin) & it's amazing. Go to the state of the economy for charts/details on what's going on in India & then they always have essays on specific issues.
Central banks are consistently the best place to get information on a particular country. I also like the RBA website as well. Enjoy!
We can read some of these together in case you find it intimidating reading central bank language.

Bottomline: altruistic acts may not be pure altruism, it is self-serving.

More work can also read reverse - the lesser occupied you are, the more adulterated thoughts 💭
All in all, it’s about BALANCE 🏋️♀️ of work for self and work for others. (Not “#WorkLifeBalance”, get it?)
🧞♀️random #musings:
The more work you do, the more frustrated😠 you become! Especially, if the work is not❌ for yourself.

You may ask, how about people who serve others.
@HPSupport Your generic replies are not helping. Perhaps, you can be more specific when your personnel will visit us with new motherboard to fix the issue, we were told Thursday 22 Aug!
The warranty is until 26 Aug, we will be penalised for your delay if you come post the deadline. @HP

@HPSupport Yes, the DM reply was this 3 days back. “Thank you. We see that the relevant team is working on it. Please allow some time while they check and get back with an update.
Regards,”
Will the issue be resolved, it’s been a week for 1 💻 and >30 days for another 💻
A new worry for educated youth in India. Share of those with secondary & more education in total unemployed youth has jumped from 35.2% (2000) to 65.7% (2022). Shows what cronyism & the erosion of trust are doing. I’m optimistic ordinary people can see this & change is coming.
