This is Anagha Rajesh.
And she is crazy.
She wants to store data in bacterial DNA.
Her startup is called BioCompute.
And last year, they actually did it.
They stored data in DNA and retrieved it in their tiny lab in Bengaluru.
This is a huge moment.
But why is she even doing it?
Because DNA is the ultimate storage tool available to us.
Just 1 gm of DNA can store about 215 petabytes of data - that's like storing over 2 million movies in 4K.
On top of that - this data can last for literally 1000s of years.
Right now, they still need to figure out a way to make the reading and writing process faster and cheaper.
But if BioCompute solves this problem - we could theoretically store all the data created in the world every year in the palm of our hands.
And that would be insane.
P.S. Check out this video from @vy0mbhatia going to Anagha's lab and actually doing it.
Your brain loves easy problems because solving them feels like winning without any hard work. But growth requires you to actively choose the path with the highest friction. The mind adapts, so keeping life easy forces your intelligence to shrink over time.

How Nations Earn Respect
Because of power differentials, asymmetry is inherent in international negotiations. The parties are rarely equal in economic or military strength. Yet history shows that the stronger side does not necessarily prevail, whether on the battlefield or at the negotiating table. Outcomes between nations often depend less on material capabilities than on leadership, political will, national resilience, strategy and tactics.
In 1962, China, by launching a surprise war against an unprepared India, inflicted a humiliating defeat on an economically and militarily stronger adversary. More recently, the world’s most powerful military, the United States, has struggled to achieve decisive results against a much weaker Iran.
In 1999, China was no match for American power. Yet after the U.S. bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade, which killed three Chinese nationals, Washington was compelled to pay $32.5 million in compensation for the damage and for those killed or wounded. The U.S. also issued repeated apologies for the bombing, with President Bill Clinton personally apologizing to help defuse the crisis.
In 1971, defying U.S. military pressure and nuclear blackmail, a relatively weak India helped Bangladesh secure independence in a swift 13-day military campaign that produced the largest number of prisoners of war (POWs) since the end of World War II. The operation succeeded despite President Nixon’s deployment of a nuclear-capable naval task force off the southern tip of India.
In 1998, an economically vulnerable India brushed aside U.S. sanctions threats and conducted a series of underground nuclear tests, declaring itself a nuclear-weapons state. The decision reflected a willingness to bear costs in pursuit of national objectives and ultimately became a defining moment in India's rise and strategic transformation.
In 2026, by contrast, an India widely regarded as a rising power but seemingly lacking comparable political resolve responded fecklessly to the killing of three unarmed Indian merchant mariners by the U.S. Navy, demanding neither an American apology nor compensation for the victims’ families.
These episodes differed in circumstance and scale, but they shared a common lesson: nations earn respect not merely through economic or military power, but through leadership, resolve and a willingness to defend their interests.
Respect is earned, not bestowed. Power alone does not command respect; leadership and resolve do. Without them, even a rising power may find itself unable to defend its interests, uphold its dignity or secure justice for its own citizens.

Modi ji said that foreign trips should not be undertaken so that dollars can be saved.
On the other hand, a Union Minister is taking 75 judges and senior lawyers on a six-day trip to London.
The Chief Justice, who likened the youth to cockroaches, was also with them.
