Elon Musk built the future instead.

Love him or hate him…

Nobody has changed more industries in a single lifetime.

Payments. Cars. Energy. Space. Social Media. Communications. AI.

History won’t remember the people who said it couldn’t be done.

It will remember the people who did it anyway.

Congratulations Elon.
The first trillionaire. 🚀

Champions ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Phenomenal win for Team India in Ahmedabad. Absolutely no match for the explosive cricket played by us throughout the tournament. Brilliant character shown by the boys to keep fighting in tough situations and become world champions once again. Congratulations to all the players and all the members of the management for achieving this feat. Jai Hind 🇮🇳❤️

Most engineers confuse being busy with being productive.
Spending 8 hours debugging code you copied isn’t “grinding.”
It’s chaos.

Big EdTech is so fucked up in India.

Fuck these companies, I got pissed off with Scaler when they started cold calling me about joining their DSA prep course. Anyone who needs to cold call you doesn't have a good enough value proposition.

@neiltyson Thank you Neil.
Loved your show Cosmos.

Thank you New York Times. Thank you for the racial jibe & the ridicule. Thank you for doubting our abilities. Thank you for laughing at us.

Today we did not knock on the door. Today, we kicked the door down.

Now, go and draw a new cartoon. Go…

Camavinga comes on and the entire game flips on its head. All this France team needed was a little bit more Madridismo DNA to equalize this.
