Interesting thought : most people are taught to either EXPRESS or SUPPRESS their emotions but not PROCESS it.

“Pre-“ means before, and “post-“ means after. Using both at the same time would be preposterous.

Some people create PROBLEMS to get what they want . Some people create SOLUTIONS to get what they want.

choose wisely.

The word “Founder” is so ironical. Barring a few…very few…most of them are lost .

Andrej Karpathy on Elon's management style: If you have a big person who is also really smart and has a big hammer, things move quickly.

“He hates meetings. He keeps telling people to skip meetings if they're not useful.

He has a very good intuition for streamlining processes, making everything efficient —the best part is no part— simplifying, focusing, and just removing barriers, moving very quickly, and making big moves.

I do think you need someone in a powerful position with a big hammer like Elon, who's the cheerleader for that idea and ruthlessly pursues it. If no one has a big enough hammer, everything turns into committees, democracy within the company, processes, talking to stakeholders, decision-making, everything just crumbles.

If you have a big person who is also really smart and has a big hammer, things move quickly.”

You don’t need money to live. You need
money to cover incidentals. Go figure.

I am endlessly amused by the infinite indignities I suffer on the very platform that I own

To free yourself
You’ve to be your self
To be your self you’ve to find yourself
To find yourself, you’ve to loose your self

So,

find something that is worth getting lost in…

Amazing to learn about Lalitaditya Muktapida and the extent of his Kashmir empire! From Kabul to Kalinga! And we didn’t learn all this in history class in school🤷🏻‍♂️

@vikramsampath your book is such an important effort towards fixing our knowledge of our own history.

Humans need cohorts to survive. How they choose them may depend on lot of factors. Some circumstantial some incidental some inherited. But all save same purpose.
