You can hate BJP, RSS or Modi all you want, but don't let your political obsession make you shit on Indian history and civilisation just to sound clever. You don't have to agree with everything, but casually dismissing centuries of our history and traditions because it doesn't fit your politics is just fucking pathetic. Stick to comedy, Kunal.
Fire your Product Manager! or whoever is looking after the App. Why do I have to juggle through 3 screens just to checkin at the gym.
You do not seem to care about customer experience and you want an IPO.
I can refer some good folks if you really need it.

We have information that Moonshot AI distilled Anthropic’s Fable for the development of its K3 model.
To do this they developed a sophisticated internal platform to conduct large scale distillation against U.S. models, allowing them to quickly switch between multiple methods of access to avoid detection. Moonshot AI has also acquired GB300-equipped servers and has accessed GB300s in Thailand, likely to train its AI models.
The United States strongly supports the free and fair development of AI, including a thriving competitive ecosystem that spans frontier models, specialized systems, open-source frameworks, and open-weight models. Legitimate AI distillation used to create smaller, more efficient models plays a vital role in this open innovation ecosystem. However, large-scale, covert industrial distillation aimed at stealing proprietary U.S. technology and undermining American research is unacceptable.
Maybe Shekhar Suman made a mistake here - he thought that this was the '90s - where he could recreate the TV magic of Movers & Shakers - on the internet.
But this is Naya Bharat.
There is good reason why (despite having HUNDREDS of news channels) we don't have a SINGLE late night / news satire show on TV. Very soon the remaining traces will be removed from the internet.
“I will **** your mother outside.”
With audio, here’s the FULL transcript of the language used by Shinde Sena Corporator Ramesh Mhatre and his goons at the KDMC Hospital on Monday.
True worth of ‘laadki bahin’ to Shinde Sena.
62% of Indian resident doctors work more than 36 hours at a stretch. 86% report severe sleep deprivation. 97% earn less than an entry level civil servant. 76% are assaulted while on duty.
We can call ourselves civilised only when we learn to treat our doctors like they treat us.
My dear young person,
Don’t succumb to mediocrity. There’s enough of it going around. Aspire for craftsmanship, as that is what leads to joy and beauty.
The world needs more people who’re proud of what they make, and less of those who couldn’t care less.
Going to leave you with this tonight:
The best thing you can do for yourself is actively increase your surface area for luck to hit you.
Go outside, travel more, go to new cafes, museums, events, take a new route home, go for hikes, see cities, countrysides, take your notebook, speak to people, ask questions, start businesses - go on more side quests.
You can literally just do things, and the more you do, the more serendipity and synchronicity will find you.
Night gang.
For people who are still underwhelmed by AI:
I was about to buy a $100 teleprompter app, but decided to vibe-code one in 2 prompts. Asked Claude to make a website for it as well.
(For context: I'm a historian, never coded a line in my whole life)
Another banger from @SarvamAI , this time: real time speech! We are now world best on all things Indian - accents, languages, tones - speak any Indian language in the same conversation, we will switch our tokenizer/mode, and automatically transcribe. Don't miss the demo video!
@grok@farzyness Grok isn’t this objectively stupid? Like when you’ve already figured out a deterministic middle layer to train on top of, why would you strip it out for a generative model? Not to mention the loss of oversight and very little efficiency gains anyways…
When i was still working as a biomedical engineer in Ubth, I had this male coworker that used to stay back in the office till 8 PM every night. Four extra hours of doing absolutely nothing, just sitting outside the empty conference room talking to himself or using his phone.
One day I asked him why he didn’t just go home to his wife and kid since he closed by 4 PM.
He laughed that dry, hollow laugh and said, "Michi, if I go home by 5, my wife will ask for money for dinner, or the generator needs fuel, or the landlord is coming. If I stay till 9, she assumes I’m hustling and grinding for the family. She respects the 'busy' man, but she has no patience for the 'tired' man present in the house."
So now, every night, he sits in the dark office, drinking water to fill his stomach, and calls his wife. He speaks with energy, Yes babe, i still have a lot of work to cover. I’m doing this for us.
Even when his account balance is literally reading minus.
He does this; not because he is a liar.
Not because he doesn't want to be home.
But because sounding 'busy' and 'ambitious' is the only way a man retains his dignity in a home he pays for.
A lot of people cannot even begin to understand the mental gymnastics men perform every day just to avoid being called "useless."
@burkeholland the best part is when you realize your agent has been silently teaching you bash for months and you didn't even notice 😂 i've learned more about terminal from watching my agent work than 10 years of stack overflow
🚨 REALITY CHECK: Modi calls 18% tariff a “victory”,
But here’s what he’s NOT telling you:
1️⃣ Trump STARTED at 25%, went to 50% to bully us, then reduced to 18%; classic negotiation trap. We’re celebrating our own surrender.
2️⃣ India GAVE UP Russian oil; our cheapest energy source that saved billions for ordinary Indians. Who benefits? American oil companies.
3️⃣ We’ve committed to buy $500 BILLION of US goods; energy, coal, tech, agriculture. That’s not partnership, that’s colonial tribute.
4️⃣ Even at 18%, we’re taxed HIGHER than Vietnam (20% before, now similar), Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia (all 19%); so much for “special partnership.”
5️⃣ India’s average tariff is 17%, US is 3.3%. “Reciprocal” would mean they charge us 17%, not 18%+. Trump is charging us MORE than our own rate.
This isn’t diplomacy. It’s transactional humiliation dressed up as friendship.
Modi sold India’s strategic autonomy and energy security for a photo-op with Trump.
The 1.4 billion Indians deserve leaders who negotiate FROM strength, not ON their knees.
