What about paneer dosa?

[www.sidin.co @sidin]

Potato came to India in 16th century. First written record of dosa was in 8th century.

Which means there was an 800 year gap between first dosa and first masala dosa.

TIL of a parent who pays 8.5 lpa for their 1st grader's school fees.

That's more than my BTech + MBA + pocket money for the period.

Can vouch for Garmin products. As a vivoactive 4 user, considered switching to an apple watch - borrowed my wife's watch for a week and couldn't bear the unnecessary apps on that small screen plus the need to charge it every day.

My gramin solves for everything and is rugged

[Trung Phan @TrungTPhan]

Garmin is a very resilient company.

Over the past 15 years, two Big Tech players took direct hits on its main revenue streams.

◽️GPS: When Google released Maps for Android in 2008, Garmin's car GPS devices made $2B a year (~70% of total sales). It's now only $1B year.
◽️Smartwatches: From 2008 to 2014, Garmin’s smart fitness watches (GPS, heart tracking, waterproof) grew from $0 to $1B. Then, Apple released the Apple Watch.

In response to the Apple threat, Garmin started selling high-end models and has carved out a niche in the premium fitness smartwatch market ($2-$3,000 price points vs. $799 for Apple Watch Ultra).

Today, smart fitness watches make up 60% of Garmin's ~$5B sales (GPS — evenly divided between car, aviation and marine segments — is 40% of revenue vs. 100% in 2008).

After surviving these haymakers, Garmin is up ~3x from 2008 and worth $20B.

The best hack is tipping a waiter at weddings - you get the best table and all food served even if its a buffet

[MoneyTalkWithL @LarissaFernand]

I will never forget this incident at a restaurant, a friend’s birthday.

The host asked the waiter his name, then slipped Rs 500 to him & said “xx, take good care of us.” Even before we ordered!!

The service was impeccable.

But what the host said, impressed me: “I want my money to buy me great service”.

PayZapp is THE payments app to use if you're and HDFC customer - much more cool stuff to come!

[nikhil george @nikhilgeorge]

HDFC Bank’s Swipe to Pay feature on @payzapp is damn cool!

If you have an HDFC Card saved on Payzapp, you can just swipe to pay instead of entering SMS OTPs. This makes online payments very convenient !

Have you tried it out yet? What are your thoughts?
