Price to Sales ratio for big tech (not price to earnings):
1. Nvidia: 20x
2. Apple: 10x
3. Alphabet (Google): 11x
4. Microsoft: 10x
5. Meta: 7.5x
6. Micron: 19x
As Scott McNealy of Sun Micro said back on 2002: "At 10x revenues, to give you a ten-year payback, I have to pay you 100% of revenues for 10 straight years..."
This is an insane bubble, even bigger than 1999.
My coworker got promoted over me.
He was worse at coding. Better at politics.
I wrote better code. Fixed more bugs. Shipped faster.
He talked in meetings. Took credit. Played the game.
He got the promotion. I got "keep up the good work".
That's when I realized: corporate rewards politics, not performance.
Six months later I quit. Started freelancing.
Now I make 3x his salary. No politics. No credit-stealing. Just solving problems and getting paid directly.
The best developers rarely get promoted. They get used.
Companies optimize for compliance and communication. Not competence.
If you're technically great but politically terrible, you'll never win at corporations.
Leave. Build your own thing. Get paid for your actual value.

Fireworks on Chinese new year, china has stringent laws which reversed their AQI problem if it was due to fireworks they would've banned it but I guess you know better. Anybody who thinks fireworks not stubble burning is behind poor AQI is a moron.
Latest NASA satmap shows stubble-burning continues unabated in Punjab, Haryana, UP, and parts of Pakistan. Smog from these farm fires will blanket Delhi soon - it has begun to already (AQI: 418). And everyone - politicians, youtubers, judges, the media - will blame Diwali for it.
Dangerous, poisonous attempt to degrade quality of IITs. Enough to destroy our education, should enough subscribe to these notions.
One should try to increase the overall quality of a group by improving the bottom one, not pull down the top.

The Dark Side of the Olympic Games: Anti Doping Agency Scam.
Did you know Olympic Anti Doping agency WADA is controlled by U.S. and it allows 3 countries to hold 63% of all Therapeutic DRUG use exemptions and the same 3 countries hold most number of medal tally.
The agency itself is set up with the sole purpose to enable massive doping of the US/Western athletes and to forbid and target other athletes in the name of anti-doping.
Athletes can legally dope themselves with performance-enhancing drugs, all under the guise of "medical treatment."
All thanks to system that World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has created, a system that allows western countries to dominate the medal tally with:
WADA's "exemption list".
This list is a little-known secret that allows athletes to use banned drugs, as long as they get approval. Approval by whom? US controlled WADA.
But here's the catch - the applications are kept private, opening the door for widespread doping. And guess which countries are taking advantage of this loophole? The same three countries that top the medal tally.
If you take a closer look at the numbers. In 2015, 653 American athletes applied for exemptions, with a staggering 60% approval rate. Compare that to Russia, which had a mere 37% approval rate, and China, which had only a single-digit number of approved exemptions.
But that's not all in 2016, the Russian hacker group "Magic Bear" leaked into the WADA database and found that American athletes have been using banned drugs with the help of their own anti-doping agency.
Yes, you read that right - the very agency meant to prevent doping has been enabling it. Over 200 American athletes have received medical exemptions, allowing them to use drugs like synthetic steroids and diuretics.
And it's not just limited to one or two sports. Cycling, athletics, triathlon, swimming, and skiing - all the sports that require peak physical performance - have been hit hard by doping. Even tennis superstars like Serena and Venus Williams have been allowed to take banned drugs, without revealing the medical certificates that justified their use.
WADA's system is a scam. Games should be about fair play and sportsmanship, instead WADA is used as a US weapon to attack adversaries in foreign policy.
