@Lets_b_Cool @malpani Any empirical basis to your claim?

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@malpani Though I totally agree with employability and skill being issues, we cannot ignore that this is also a demand side problem not just supply side. There just aren't enough jobs.

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@malpani @Ineanderthal He meant everyone pays taxes in the form of indirect taxes (eg. GST). Income tax payers are not the only tax payers.

@Rocky2k07 @Manoranjan2303 @wishhify Well I'm just 16 and in my lifetime I've seen no one stop messing with you if you swear, they only swear back - but you seem to be much more experienced, you know better

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@Rocky2k07 @Manoranjan2303 @wishhify I agree with you.
However, the term "weak" is relative. All I meant is people who swear when arguing/expressing emotions, don't find better ways to do so.
I only gave an example through Vajpayee, not comparing him and Kohli. (I love Kohli, but I don't find swearing "cool")

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@_tctoan_ because I feel the system would not have been so bad if teachers could question how effective the conventional teaching methods are

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@_tctoan_ The courage to question anything

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@Rocky2k07 @Manoranjan2303 @wishhify Not weak...but maybe weak at expressing himself through words
Like, Vajpayee never needed abusive word's to slit the opposer's tongue when arguing

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@Manoranjan2303 @wishhify Not necessarily a person who is weak, but a person who is weak at expressing themself and doesn't have better words.

@FrancescoCiull4 Because as a 16-year-old kid in this outdated education system, programming is the best way I find to channel my creativity and build something useful from scratch

To all the #Gandhi haters: Remember that it was none other than Subhas Bose - one of his most credible opponents who termed him "The Father of our Nation"
Disagreement ≠ Disrespect for the great souls🙏

@malpani And when they are taught to focus only on the results and not enjoy the process

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@iAviOfficial @malpani Not sure about research but I am a student and I can assure you this is true

"Imitate then Innovate"
-@david_perell

[Dr Aniruddha Malpani, MD @malpani]

Copying is the best business model in the world. Nothing beats copying for lowering risk.
What you must remember is that copying should only be your starting point. You need to innovate beyond the existing model to ensure long-term success

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@DevagyaDiwan @malpani This distortion is not a mistake but an unavoidable outcome. It will always happen when you flatten the earth's curved surface into a map

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@malpani Many here are saying no one can teach common sense... Yes, agreed.
But the problem is that our schools are allergic to common sense. They won't let students follow it

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

Started working on @cs50 web's first project on the eve of my chemistry mid-term exam. And it's soo addictive😅. RIP my chem exam lol

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

I'm learning calculus at school now, which I wonder how many of us will use in real life. But they never taught us how to do our taxes!!

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

A huge problem with CS classes in our schools is that they seem to be more focused on teaching a "programming language" rather than the art of programming.

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@malpani @gamifyingedu Until then, could you please advise me on how to develop this further?

[Jyotiraditya Pradhan @japrad26]

@malpani @gamifyingedu Thank you sir!! I wish to build this such that it could supercharge existing curriculums. Accessibility to all (esp the underprivileged) is one of my key motives

I plan to start a startup when I can commit adequate time to it - and shall surely pitch to MalpaniVentures.
