Why is there no traffic police in Delhi ever to manage traffic, the entire city is choked with no police official in sight to manage traffic. @DelhiPolice. We find them only hiding at places for challans,the entire traffic has been left to operate on its own wisdom.

🚨🇵🇹 𝗡𝗘𝗪: A journalist investigated which Portugal players follow each other on social media, claiming the results may reveal divisions within the squad.

Bruno Fernandes follows and is followed by all 26 members of Portugal’s World Cup squad.

this made me emotional. we have come a long way from the time when nehru, infuriated by the constant sound of the siren, would intentionally ram his thar roxx into the passing ambulance.

There's a physicist at Stanford named Safi Bahcall who modeled this exact principle and the math is wild.

He calls it "phase transitions in human networks." When you're stationary, your probability of a lucky event is limited to your existing surface area: the people you already know, the places you already go, the ideas you've already been exposed to. Your opportunity window is fixed.

When you move, your collision rate with new nodes in a network increases nonlinearly. Double your movement (new conversations, new cities, new projects) and your probability of a serendipitous encounter doesn't double. It roughly quadruples. Because each new node connects you to their entire network, not just to them.

Richard Wiseman ran a 10-year study at the University of Hertfordshire tracking self-described "lucky" and "unlucky" people. The single biggest differentiator wasn't IQ, education, or family money. Lucky people scored significantly higher on one trait: openness to experience. They talked to strangers more, varied their routines more, and said yes to invitations at nearly twice the rate.

The "unlucky" group followed the same routes, ate at the same restaurants, and talked to the same 5 people. Their networks were closed loops. No new inputs, no new collisions.

Luck isn't random. Luck is surface area. And surface area is a function of movement.

The lobster emoji is doing more work than most people realize. Lobsters grow by shedding their shell when it gets too tight. The growth requires a period of total vulnerability. No protection, no armor, soft body exposed to the ocean.

That's the cost of movement nobody posts about. You have to be uncomfortable first. The new shell only hardens after you've already moved.

Three years ago, I was at the Lemon Tree Bengaluru for the Volleyball League. And every morning I would finish breakfast & pop out to reception to pick up a copy of the TOI and the Economic Times. After watching me the first two days, this charming lady on duty would see me and immediately pick them out to give me.
One day, I just wanted the TOI, as the crossword then did not appear in the Sunday ET, and when she came with both, I told her I didn't need the ET.
She refused to understand, & didn't want to take back the other paper. And then I realized that like my darling son Neel and all in the autism spectrum, she struggled when a set routine was disrupted.
I apologized immediately, took the ET as well & was rewarded with a smile that just blew me away.
Thank you Lemon Tree Hotels for making a workplace for all. You have a supporter & customer for life

I've spent years struggling to prove that the sunk-cost fallacy isn't actually a fallacy. No sense in giving up now, though.

@arjuns__ @malikgarv It is saved. Go to your phone contacts and then edit number, WhatsApp and iOS both add a 91 so your phone number gets saved as 91 91 XXXXXXXXX as a result of which the number isn’t detected in phone book or WhatsApp.

[Lzafeer Ahmad B F @lzafeer]

@arjuns__ Definitely agree. If my work didn't require me to wear formal shoes 5 days a week, I'd have gotten this one as well for sure for an all week Gully rotation.

@bradford_hardin Very aptly put.

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

When people think of menswear crafted with a high-degree of workmanship, they think of places such as France, Italy, and the UK. Some may think of Japan. But few will think of India, even though some of the most incredible workmanship is happening there now. Let me show you. 🧵

There are two sensible ways to choose a fragrance and one bad way. 🧵

People who don't know much about clothes always reduce the topic to trends and status signaling. But clothing can illuminate almost any topic about society. 🧵
