I travel often between US and India. This is quite a common sight. I thought about this for a while, discussed and debated with many. I also did some work for the airlines.

You won't see this on domestic flights. This behavior has got nothing to do with disability. It has everything to do with uncertainty.

Air travel is loaded with uncertainty. Airlines and Airports are well designed, if you are a frequent traveler. If you are an infrequent traveler, it can get very confusing. Terminal changes, boarding gate changes, flight delays, tight connections, rebooking, rerouting, missed bags are all too much to deal with, especially if your english isn't good enough. These are rough even for frequent travlers.

These travelers and their children want to avoid uncertainty. Imagine being stranded at some European airport, not knowing the language nor the airline procedures.

So they are using a loophole in the system. This is not sustainable. Airlines have to figure a solution for this problem. A small fee won't solve the problem.

The problem to solve is not the wheelchair use, but the uncertainty.

There's people asking what this picture is! In any other country this would have been registered in the history books but the BJP's control over the average Indian brain is such that it didn't last in most people's memory for a single election cycle.

My video from the Hawthorne office of the final Falcon 1 launch (first ever success with deployment). This is one of those startup moments you never forget, and why you get into tech in the first place. 7/13/09.

If she wasn’t working for Elon Gwynne Shotwell would be hailed as an incredible success story and the most powerful woman in aerospace.

Instead it’s radio silence from the media

Congratulations to @elonmusk and the SpaceX team. You did what countless people said was impossible, and you did it time and time again.

Today is your day. You deserve this. May it be a glorious one.

Bro turned it into a political rally.

If Modi is on stage and no clownery happens, it’s not possible.

Look at Sam Altman and Sundar Pichai.

Feedback from other people is fake. Awards are fake. Critics are fake.

Real feedback comes from free markets and nature.

Did your rocket launch?

Did your drone fly?

It’s impossible to fool Mother Nature.
