I visited this kick-ass south Indian restaurant called Tadka in Kyoto, Japan. Tadka is owned and run by Japanese people. They visit Chennai once every 6 months, learn new dishes, practice it to perfection and add it to their menu.
Yes, 7 months ago, after spending more than a decade at Freshworks and helping us take the company public, my friend and co-founder Shan decided to take a break and drive across India and explore our beautiful country.
I’m super proud of what we accomplished together and can’t wait to see what his brilliant mind does next. Our Product and Platform BUs have their own architects who carry forward Shan’s legacy as we scale Freshworks to greater heights.
Friends who came here expecting some juicy gossip - sorry to disappoint you - There is really no news here
Wake up at 5AM everyday and take an ice bath first thing. Trust me on this. Your days will be amazing - not science but because nothing more awful can happen to you during the day. #MondayMotivation
Solo, female, 'nontechnical' founder here who got into YC. Don't be deterred by the stats.
DM me if this is you and you're thinking of applying to @ycombinator - happy to help with your application.
There's a pair of 17 year old founders in the current YC batch. To make themselves look older, they wear wristwatches. They're not even set to the correct time.
