Every generation has had a Z phase. Every generation has rebelled at the right age, filled with leftist rage.

Every generation has had people cheering them on. And every generation has had people calling them useless. Parasites.

Every generation has suffered a lathi charge. Often rubber bullets, and some were unfortunate enough to be hit by live ammo. Dead.

Every generation has had politics placate them, making them feel important.

Every generation has been promised the world. And every generation has survived betrayal.

People have immolated themselves and the government has turned a deaf ear. People have only blocked roads and the government has given in.

This baptism by fire is part of life in this unfair and lovely world. Don't fear the fire. Don't play with it either.

Don't lose hope. Don't be too high on the hype either. No matter what they tell you, you will be the world to your family and friends. And no matter what they tell you, you are not unique. Either.

Attempted to write a Steam Engine hype at the era of Industrial Revolution as if it was the age of AI —

The steam engine breakthrough is insane right now.

Watt’s separate condenser + new GRPO optimization just dropped the 405 hp-class engine. We went from 7 hp → 70 hp → 405 hp+ in basically three years. One machine now does the work of 50+ men or water wheels — nonstop, rain or shine, anywhere.

Textile mills, ironworks, everything scaling 5-10x overnight. Productivity exploding.

This isn’t incremental. It’s automating physical labor at massive scale. Jobs shifting forever. Society about to look unrecognizable.

The Industrial Revolution isn’t coming. It’s here and accelerating faster than anyone predicted.

Terrified. Excited. Both.
What a time to be alive. 🚂💨

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.

The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.

This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.

A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

The uncomfortable truth is: everyone has to go through a phase of intense hard work at least once in their life.

For some, it's during school.
For others, it hits in college.
And for many, it comes later during their first job, first switch, second switch, or even beyond.

The catch?

The later you push that phase, the tougher it gets.

Early in life, the competition is smaller, the responsibilities are fewer, and the stakes are low. That’s when excellence is cheapest, in terms of effort, stress, and sacrifice.

But once reality hits, when bills show up, when you see your peers pulling ahead, when survival and growth clash, the grind becomes ten times harder. Because now you're competing with thousands who are hungry, experienced, and desperate for the same opportunity.

So yes, cracking something early (be it JEE, exams, a skill, or a career break) doesn’t “guarantee” life, but it gives you leverage. And leverage compounds.

Early excellence isn’t about privilege, it’s about momentum.

The sooner you build it, the longer you benefit from it.

Acquiring knowledge is easy, the hard part is knowing what to apply and when.

That’s why all true learning is “on the job.”

Life is lived in the arena.

They came after his son. Transitioned him in his teens.

Probably this triggered him to take on the establishment.

Today Trump promised a federal ban on transitioning minors and a fund to sue doctors and hospitals that transitioned kids

He went after folks who hurt his kid. With all the money he has and now with his closeness with Oval Office, he can do whatever he wants.

His revenge is John Wick pro max.

India is a land of compromises.

We Indians have compromised on everthing. It starts off in the house, where many of us compromise on our dreams and aspirations. We sacrifice them at the altar of practicality and livelihood. We compromise our inclination at the altar of competitive exams. Many of us study hard, prepare well, almost as well as the next person. And when things don't work out, we compromise and look for the next best option.

When we start working, we compromise on the absurdly high taxation. While getting to work, we compromise on the absurdly poor infrastructure, zero public transport and traffic that is completely broken.

Then While working we compromise with our self respect and morality, because for us jobs and money are more important. We compromise on family time, friends and personal interests because salary is most important.

The worst compromise is When we interact with our government. There we compromise on everything because, in IndiaGovt and Govt servants in India are gods on earth.

The problem is, that Even Govt Servants have themselves compromised. A Nuclear engineer compromises with the Indian Railway transport service because of a bad rank. The higher ranked IRS, IAAS, IPS have compromised because they wanted IAS. An IAS officer has compromised with some cadre.

And for us, the 1% who actually got what they wanted in India, treat the rest 99% as absolute trash. And the other 99% compromise with their attitude.

Maybe because of our population, maybe because of our environment and maybe because it is our fate, Almost all Indians have compromised with one thing or the other.

Most of have never done what they wanted and did whay they did, because of compromise. Most didn't even know what they wanted to do, because their entire existence was compromised.

For many of us, There is always a what could have been. An imaginary world. A world where we would have been happy. But we compromised.

That compromise breeds frustration. Frustration breeds anger.

Some of you may wonder why Indians get triggered and are angry all the time.

Maybe this is a reason

I think people like these are the bane of the Indian startup ecosystem. Slick salesman masquerading as tech bros with no drive to develop RnD in tech but to find the next best trick for customer data aggregation

The ending of the Nasadiya Sukta - Rigveda 10.129 always invokes in me a sense of deep wonder at the man who wrote these words 10000 or so years ago, when the rest of the world was sunk in tribalism. The kind of open-minded enquiry here is not seen even in this day and age. I feel a strange kinship with this person. A kindred soul.

Entire country is happy to travel to India. Some low hanging issues that can be resolved very fast:

1. Delete taxi unions.
2. Have a regulator for hotels. Basic cleanliness and hygiene is must.
3. FSSAI should have more vigilance officers.
4. Get more airlines to India.

👍🏼
