Let's build each other up.

It might sound weird, but I got into endurance sports for one reason - to someday cry my heart out at the finish line. Because I really want to.

@mehulshahca I can share the prototype and learnings/insights with anybody who wants to build this.

Also, I'm open for the feedback.

I may have found two new Earth-sized planets in our galaxy this morning!

Inspired by yesterday's reddit thread on how someone used Claude Code to find a new planet, I spent this morning searching NASA TESS data on nearby stars that TESS scanned less thoroughly (at low cadence).

To my surprise the pipeline discovered two previously undocumented exoplanet candidates:

• TIC 370612437 (Cygnus constellation, 158 light-years): dims by 0.02% every 3.56 days → ~1.0× Earth's size.

• HIP 114417 (Andromeda constellation, 134 ly): 0.03% every 4.93 days → ~1.1× Earth.

The method to find them is to search for periodic dims in light coming from a star when a planet passes in front of it. For both the candidate exoplanets, the dip repeats 55 and 21 times respectively across 4 separate observing years (2019-2024).

These are obviously tentative and unconfirmed, but several signals point to them being credible candidates:

• same dip in NASA's and MIT's separate processing of the images
• hide one year's dip and predict its times from rest of the dips (matched in 3 of 4 years)
• flip light curves to create fake signals and validate observed dips against it

The method and results were reviewed by independent agents: Codex and fresh Claude. Important caveat: a faint neighbouring pair of eclipsing stars could fake the dip, so these exoplanets remain candidates pending further verification.

What's next: report to NASA's ExoFOP as Community TESS Objects of Interest, so astronomers can verify. The next scan of these stars via TESS will happen in Aug 2027 - Apr 2028, if the preregistered dip predictions hold up, these are indeed strong candidates.

Nicknames for these exoplanets: Aakanksha (Sanskrit: aspiration) and Orbit (well, Orbit)

You need to earn decent money first to even think of investing.

But thanks to finfluencers, kids earning 70-80k are busy planning their portfolio instead of figuring how to earn more.

Works great for their engagement farming though.

@Memewala This feature film has changed my perspective on a few things.

What kind of impact do you think this paradox can have on veganism? What message would you like to pass on to this generation through this masterpiece?

I would appreciate your response here.

WTF Discourse - Season 1

We’re taking on everything from MBAs and startups to sport, art, influencers, capitalism and civic behaviour..

The idea is simple: hear two genuinely opposing arguments without feeling the need to pick a side.

Many more experts & moderators will join in the episodes to follow. Open to guest suggestions :)

158 km on a bicycle.

Broken, painful elbow.

36+ hours with almost no sleep.

2 absolute crackheads for company.

Darkness, sunlight, scorching heat, clouds, and rain. Saw it all, except snow.

A weekend of pure adrenaline.

@warikoo Going through this dilemma currently. I want them to retire and work on their health and they want to keep doing what they have done for their entire life.

The thought of losing them haunts me. I don't know how would I react to it.

Learning.
