AI inference cost (which we pay in dollars) may rival our oil import bill and blow up our current account deficit. Great post on that below.
What is the solution? I believe that high developer productivity can be achieved without the high AI inference bill. We have to invent our way out of trouble. Stay tuned.
This is totally false.
Not an iota of truth in this.
There is no question of putting such restrictions on foreign travel.
We remain committed to improving ‘Ease of Doing Business’ and ‘Ease of Living’ for our people.
Currently, this is happening all around the world
• Several states in the US have encouraged citizens to work from home.
• South Korea asked citizens to use washing machines and vacuum cleaners only on weekends to reduce electricity demand.
• Pakistan Super League matches were played without crowds to reduce energy consumption. 4 days week, schools closed
• Sri Lanka declared Wednesdays as a national holiday to conserve fuel.
• Bangladesh ordered shopping malls to close by 7 PM and banned decorative lighting to save electricity.
• China encouraged citizens to switch to electric vehicles (EVs).
• Thailand advised citizens to set air conditioners at 27°C and avoid wearing coats and ties to reduce cooling demand.
• The UK reduced highway speed limits to 80 kmph to improve fuel efficiency.
• Germany introduced car-free Sundays to conserve fuel.
• Spain mandated early closing hours for offices to reduce electricity consumption.
• France banned short domestic flights where the same journey by train takes less than three hours.
• Brazil encouraged citizens to use public transport more frequently.
• Italy mandated a minimum AC temperature setting of 27°C in public buildings.
• The Philippines implemented work-from-home measures and reduced operations in shopping malls to save energy.
This is happening all around the world. All countries have increased prices of petrol and issued mandatory harsh measures. India is the only country in the world where no harsh steps have been taken

Late Shri Manohar Parrikar Ji once narrated his ordeal.
"I'm from Parra, a village in Goa, so we're called 'Parrikars.' My village is famous for its watermelons. When I was a child, the farmers there held a 'Watermelon Eating Contest' in May, after the harvest. All the children were invited and asked to eat as many watermelons as they wanted.
Many years later, I went to IIT Mumbai to study engineering. Then I returned to my village after 6.5 years. I went to the market to look for watermelons. But they were gone. The ones I found were very small.
I went to meet the farmer who used to hold the 'Watermelon Eating Contest.' Now his son had taken his place. He still held the contest, but there was a difference. When the old farmer offered us watermelons to eat, he would ask us to spit the seeds into a bowl. We were forbidden to chew the seeds. He was collecting seeds for the next crop.
We were, in effect, unpaid child laborers.
He would keep his best watermelons for the competition, using them as the best. He obtained good seeds, which produced even bigger watermelons the next year. When his son arrived, he thought the larger ones would fetch a higher price in the market, so he started selling the larger ones and keeping the smaller ones for competition. The next year, the watermelons grew smaller, and the next even smaller. A watermelon generation lasts one year.
In seven years, Parra's best watermelons were wiped out. In humans, a generation changes every 25 years. In 200 years, we will realize the mistakes we were making in educating our children.
Selecting good seeds, that is, talent, is a huge task in itself. Due to irrelevant ideas and useless things, our good watermelons will go to market, leaving us with useless, inferior seeds.
We must think about this in today's context.
Now cry more 🤣🤣🤣🤣
PM Modi himself called out people who are labelling the following movies as lies:
The Kashmir Files,
The Kerala Story,
and Dhurandhar 😂😂😂😂👌🏼
This is a huge statement.
Kashmir Files- everyone knows it’s true despite ‘them’ denying it, but PM endorsing The Kerala Story is a big thing. It proves that the PM is fully aware of Love Jihad cases.
The most highlighted part is endorsing Dhurandhar. 😍 All the incidents shown in the film are real and a story is spun to bring them together in the spy thriller.
All naysayers can cry more now. 😂
PM also said, “Now they are spreading lies on SIR and UCC as well.”
This scene from Lakshya is for all those Aman Ki Tamasha lovers.
Unfortunately this movie was released at a wrong time, when Aman Ki Tamasha was heavily in the air, so it flopped, while crap like Main Hoon Na became a hit.
That Army officer's outburst is what most ordinary Indians feel.
Lakshya still remains among the best Indian war movies.
Dhurandhar who lived 108 years 🔥 🔥
You've seen spies in movies. You've watched Dhurandhar. You've heard stories of brave soldiers.
But what if I told you that the most dangerous, most feared, and most loyal secret weapon India ever had was not a trained intelligence officer, not a decorated army general, not even someone who went to school?
Born in 1901, Ranchodbhai Savabhai Rabari known as "Pagi", meaning the one who shows the way spent his entire life doing exactly that. Guiding Indian soldiers through pitch black deserts. Tracking enemy footprints in the sand. Protecting a border that most of us can't even find on a map.
His skill was unlike anything any spy school could ever teach. One look at a footprint and he could tell you how many soldiers passed, how fast they were moving, whether they were armed, and how long ago they walked there.
100 years of living in the desert gave him a sense no technology could replace. During the 1965 war, the Indian Army needed to move 10,000 soldiers to their destination in three days.
Pagi guided them and arrived 12 hours ahead of schedule. Through a desert. In complete darkness. With zero technology.
Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw one of India's greatest ever military heroes personally gave him the nickname "Pagi" and never forgot him till his last breath. In 2008, lying on his deathbed in a hospital in Tamil Nadu, Manekshaw kept whispering one single word in his semi-conscious state. "Pagi… Pagi… Pagi…"
He worked with R&AW and the BSF guarding 540 km of the India-Pakistan border in Gujarat. He won the Sangram Medal, the Samar Seva Star and the Police Medal. The BSF named a border outpost after him that still stands today. His story is now in Gujarat school textbooks.
Most people retire at 60. Pagi retired at 108. He left this world on January 18, 2013, at the age of 112. No viral moment. No prime time coverage. No trending hashtag. Just a shepherd from Gujarat who quietly kept a billion people safe for over a century.
While we were watching fictional spies on screen, the real Dhurandhar was walking barefoot through the desert making sure we slept safely at night. Share this so his name never gets forgotten.
🔖 Save this. The world needs to know him
Some auras don’t trend… they define the trend…🔥
Narendra Modi ji - a league of his own.
Looks like Dhurandhar knew it back in 2000.
Pure Internet Gold…! 😎
#Dhurandhar2
Today, we bow in reverence to the brave sons of Bharat Mata, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev. Their martyrdom for the nation remains etched in our collective memory.
At a young age, they displayed extraordinary courage and an unshakable commitment to the cause of India’s freedom. Undeterred by the might of colonial rule, they chose the path of sacrifice with conviction, placing the nation above their own lives. Their ideals of justice, patriotism and fearless resistance continue to ignite the spirit of countless Indians.
💥The beginning of the end of the colonial English language in Asia.
Nobody is supposed to report to the aged Brits sitting in their tiny seashore.
#Decolonisation continues...

Bharat's entry into Malacca Straits Patrol (MSP) is big & decisive shift in Indo-Pacific power dynamics. This puts Bharat directly into 20 yr-old maritime security grid that monitors 1 Lakh vessels annually incl Chinese. World's biggest Chokepoint.
.@narendramodi Ji isn't fool like Jawahar to trust China blindly. By joining MSP, Bharat gains access to coordinated sea patrols, aerial surveillance under Eyes-in-the-Sky program & real-time intelligence sharing.
🚨 Japan’s bond market just flashed its weakest signal in 16 years.
The country’s 2-year government bond auction just collapsed in demand.
This tiny crack could ripple into U.S. rates, mortgages, and the entire Fed outlook.
