@original_ngv They ARE not for profit government funded private startup companies. If they stop creating value, they will stop getting funded.
If by “startup” you mean, for profit companies, it would have never reached where it is today and would have died in a few years.
It feels exhilarating and therapeutic to express yourself in words and to write them down.
Writing it down, just for yourself, free of judgements and external validations is a meditation in itself.
Today, I complete 365 day streak of my Journaling journey.
It would not have been possible without the @dayoneapp to hit this milestone today, 1000 Days of daily journaling.
It played a tremendous role in making me actually WANT to write and express with their really interesting Daily Prompts for writing to get me started.
@anshularora90@RohitAryannn RTO is a problem of goods which have low value. I think the problem lies in the online marketing. The expectations are not met and hence the product is returned. So the gap is in the communication considering the intent of the customer is good.
@anshularora90@kmr_dilip This a good problem to solve. I wish it was as easy to transfer an ailing person on an Yulu e-bike as it is to transfer groceries.
@rmondello@KrauseFx@1Password 1. A dedicated app for password management, and not just hidden away in System Preferences on macOS.

"Mansplaining" is an unhelpful term born from a clash of communication styles.
People who use the label often push the narrative that men are intentionally patronising towards women. (Psst...some are...don't be that guy!)
But such a hard conclusion also disregards how men cultivate relationships - which can be very different to women.
Male conversation is often dominated with knowledge exchange and recommendations about things ("you should try this" "have you done that?").
And it often lacks talking about emotions and people ("have you heard about..." "that must have felt...").
Even a quick twitter poll shows this. 93% of men say the content of their conversations with same sex friends is best categorised as "knowledge" vs "feelings". For women? 42% - less than half.
Forgetting about whether that's "right" or "wrong" - the point is that the types of conversations men have to become closer to one another are often different to those women have.
So what happens when a man, in an effort to become closer to women, applies the same communication style they use to build relationships with other men? You guessed it: "Stop mansplaining".
It's a failure of cross-sex mind reading, perhaps. Poor social skills and emotional intelligence on behalf of the man.
But the irony is, assuming the motive is to be patronising, rather than relationship-building, is also potentially a failure of cross-sex mind reading!
Final thought - people who are patronising are rarely patronising to just one sex. They're patronising to everyone. Hence, in my house, we call it "And(rew)splaining" ;)
I truly believe that taking the time to write a letter, where you can't hide from yourself, has the potential to help us discover our true selves amidst the distractions of the modern world.
In a world filled with instant communication, the act of writing a letter forces us to slow down, delve deeper, and express ourselves more fully. It's a process that encourages depth, reflection, and understanding.
