I was thinking there was a US hand behind this. Now with Turkey, Pak, Bloomberg, FT, leftists, Soros suckers and all traditional GLISCO-DS media and parties behind this new movement, I am beginning to think both are together hitting India.

This shows nothing but the true sovereignty in which India has acted. All of them do not like India acting in its own interests. They are joining hands to try force a regime change.

So 100% everyone needs to back the govt on this one to keep India stable now and pull through the tough geopolitical & economic climate created by multiple external factors.

My message for any Gen-z or whoever thinks anarchy and political instability is good: Look around India - Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Maldives etc - everyone is ruined economically now after regime changes. India is the one supporting them.

If you have problems with the govt, go vote in elections and vote out whoever is non-performing. Don't let foreign forces use you to meddle in India. Nothing good ever comes out of it.

We removed 2,500 tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere, soon to be permanently locked in the Bay of Bengal.

That's equal to 3,500 one way tickets from Delhi to Tokyo.

This is the largest Enhanced Rock Weathering delivery issued by @Isometric_HQ.

Thank you to our Japanese partners Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL Group), for supporting the ambitious Darjeeling Revival Project. We’re glad to deliver on our promise to you from last year.

But our work at @AltCarbonIndia to build the Japan-India climate corridor is just starting.

Has it ever happened that you just bathed…
and Amma goes, “Innu snaana madilva?” (haven’t you taken a bath yet?)
And you’re just there… dignity in pieces… wondering —
what evidence do I even submit here?

I am committing INR 1 Cr to find Bangalore Choke-Points via Google Maps & AL.

11 km → 2.15 hours in Bangalore Traffic on Saturday late night!

I was stuck at one choke-point at ORR, where I spent 100 mins struggling to understand why there is no traffic-light or cop here!

But I don’t want one more “Bengaluru Traffic Memes or Rant”. I WANT TO FIX IT.

Very recently, in April 2025, Google Maps started sharing "Road Management Insight". It's a city-level data in Big Query format.

Using Google Data and Satellite Imagery, we can list down all the choke-points & their exact timings in a month. For the traffic department to work on those areas specifically.

I am willing to spend INR 1 Crore on this project by funding: 1-2 senior ML/AI engineers. And providing budget for using Google Maps API calls, Satellite Imagery & GPUs

I will start this project, when BTP/BBMP: Open their raw feeds or API access AND names a team, committed to acting on the insights we generate.

🙌 How can you help right now?

1. TAG anyone you know in the Bangalore Traffic Office, BBMP or the Traffic Commissioner’s office, let this hit the right inbox.

2. ML/AI folks: comment "IN", if you can work along part-time to end this menace

3. Every commuter who’s sick of bleeding time: comment or share. More noise -> faster response.

Bengalore is India’s tech future; and people making it happen deserve MUCH better.

Mark Carney asks Pierre Poilievre on why he didn't get his security clearance.

What an incredibly dumb strategic error here.

Now Pierre gets to explain it on national TV and attack Carney on China.

I moved back to Canada in 2010 after a decade of building companies in SF. I was excited to move back. In 2010, Canada was a country marked by stability, resilience, and global recognition. Its strong and diversified economy weathered the global financial crisis better than many other nations, thanks to a robust banking system widely regarded as one of the soundest in the world.

The Canadian dollar demonstrated remarkable strength, nearing parity with the U.S. dollar for much of the year, making the move back financially very easy. Our currency was a reflection of international confidence in Canada’s economic fundamentals and resource-rich economy.

Canada’s resource sector was a cornerstone of its economic strength, with booming energy, mining, and forestry industries driving growth. The country remained a global leader in the production and export of oil, natural gas, potash, and other valuable commodities. Alberta’s oil sands and the natural resource-rich provinces of Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Newfoundland and Labrador contributed significantly to national prosperity. This resource wealth not only bolstered Canada’s GDP but also attracted significant foreign investment and created thousands of jobs across the nation.

Canada’s was further bolstered by its successful hosting of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, a showcase of the country’s natural beauty, cultural diversity, and world-class hospitality.

Canada was on top of the world.

Compare that to today.

I want to cry… and I certainly question why the hell I moved back.
