No business owners are hated as much as landlords, because land feels like a God-given asset that was divvied up unfairly, rather than something that was built from scratch.

@naval Very interesting take

[Hasit Bhatt @Hasit_P_Bhatt]

Be like the wind through the canyon, unseen yet shaping all it touches. Stand as the moonlight on still waters, gentle yet illuminating the depths, knowing your essence is both the journey and the reflection.

[Hasit Bhatt @Hasit_P_Bhatt]

Seek not answers, but understanding, for it illuminates many questions, not just one.

Good day to remember just how big that green tree is

"Behind it all is surely an idea so simple, so beautiful, that when we grasp it - in a decade, a century, or a millennium - we will all say to each other, how could it have been otherwise?"
- John Archibald Wheeler, Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 480 (1986)

@nivi Can't agree more.

Science tells us when 24 Earth hours are complete, but predicting it will be 10pm requires understanding human constructs like daylight saving time. These social agreements, not governed by science, determine how we label time and vary by region.

The hive hums with shared purpose, building as one; yet the butterfly flits alone, drawn to the nectar of its own discovery.

Don't rush, river, the ocean will wait.

[Hasit Bhatt @Hasit_P_Bhatt]

Each ring of the tree is an answer, not asked. Each year adds a layer, not of doing, but of being. Such is the way of life, where the self is perfected in stillness.

True knowledge is like a flame in the dark; it doesn’t consume the void but reshapes it into endless possibility.

[Hasit Bhatt @Hasit_P_Bhatt]

The wind does not rest, nor do the dunes remain; wisdom is the art of their endless dance.

9. Universality of Computation
Universal systems, like computers, can simulate anything with the right program. Embrace versatile tools—they adapt to any challenge better than rigid, specialized ones. 💻
