@Schiphol Thanks a lot. I have sent out an email with the relevant details as instructed here.

[Nikhil Karwall @nikhilkarwall]

@Schiphol lost one our bags post security on the 19th. Filled out the form for lost and found, but haven’t received any update as yet. Also the phone number never connects. Would appreciate if you can share any alternate channel for contacting relevant authority at the airport.

The persecution of @harsh_mander escalated. Am told that CBI is presently raiding his office and house. All agencies of the govt have been deployed against him, a man who works for the most vulnerable and for minority rights.

A lot of very smart people work in strange ways / with a lot of quirks (e.g. contemplating for hours and appearing to do nothing, while then suddenly having 100x output burst).

This usually makes them not a great fit for traditional corporate world, where you often have to fake being busy & work around fixed structures.

The great thing about small teams working in a flexible structure with high autonomy is that you get to witness these quirks manifest into greatness, time and time again.

Many genuinely productive people are misunderstood because their perceived methods many not ‘look’ like hard work from the outside.

Organizations that are able to attract these people at scale & are able to create a culture in which they can flourish, have immense potential for innovation / technological breakthroughs (think OpenAI, SpaceX, ...)

Very sad to hear of Ajit Ninan’s passing away. His cartoon strips in newspapers and magazines were always delightfully sharp and hilarious. He’ll be missed sorely.

In their free time, the Ukrainian soldiers made “cat’s security checkpoint” so they can pass to a dugout freely. Heartwarming😻

Yixing clay teapots are made from Yixing clay. This traditional style originated in China, dating back to the 15th century, and are made from clay produced near Yixing in the eastern Chinese province of Jiangsu

Happy birthday, Dieter

Today, on 20 May 2023, one of the most influential industrial designers of the 20th century celebrates his birthday … Dieter Rams turns 91.

Here at #vitsoe, there is more to #dieterrams that warrants a celebration for just one day a year...

To my young-hearted friends: read and learn. Reflect and absorb.

But never forget: Wisdom is life itself.

Sometimes, there is no more advice left to give.

Sometimes, you must simply live.

More reasons to enjoy your coffee.

No, drinking coffee does not increase your blood pressure & does not increase the risk of, or worsen 'gastritis,' or gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) symptoms.*

In fact, "habitual" (or regular) moderate consumption of black coffee (3-5 cups a day) without sugar or milk reduces...**

...blood pressure, heart related adverse events, all-cause death, fatty liver, progression of fatty liver disease, lessen liver fibrosis in those with non-alcoholic fatty liver, and is modestly associated with lowering of body fat.

1 coffee cup = 150mL
1 standard cup = 230 to 250mL

But caffeine in coffee or your work-out supplements does mess up with your sleep.
But there is a way around it.

To avoid reductions in total sleep time, coffee (caffeine content 107 mg per 250 mL) should be consumed at least 8.8 h prior to bedtime and a standard serve of pre-workout supplement (217.5 mg of caffeine) should be consumed at least 13.2 h prior to bedtime.***

Imagine a multi-billion dollar client who refused to pay you for good work rendered. Most people would turn to lawyers

I turned to ChatGPT
