Paraphrasing, "13 years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially". 400K retail investors are in good hands with the "Ironman". Congratulations, Yashish & Alok. @policybazaar

A lot of errors happen when you try to speed up what's naturally going to happen. The lack of patience changes the outcome.

Pretty clever trick. Celcius is the percentage around a semicircle, Fahrenheit gives the angle (plus 32).

This makes for handy intuitive conversions like

25°C = 32 + 45 = 77°F.
50°C = 32 + 90 = 122°F.

Even handier if you're comfortable rounding 32 to 30.

Yesterday, we published an investigative piece on PC Financial. Today, a representative for PC Financial called @artijourno and offered “support in the right way” if the story could be taken down. We are doing one better and making the story free to read. https://t.co/P3g7wrFM5r

We were thrown out of our workspace around this time, almost a couple years ago because we couldn’t make a payment. Today I was trying to fight back tears when the ISRO Chairman and Scientific Secretary inaugurated our first proper facility in Bengaluru.

(a long thread, sorry)
