Al Jazeera heard “mosque” and stopped reporting.

They skipped the High Court order.
They skipped action already taken against 10 temples and a mosque on the same road.
They skipped that Ujjain authorities have already acted on ~80 religious sites across the city.

Where was this tone when historic Mecca was flattened for hotels?
Xinjiang lost thousands of mosques. Why did those stories never open like this?

Selective reporting isn’t journalism.

Now that Sahil’s cheating video is out, I demand the immediate suspension of Prof. Waghmore, who tried to portray this as an SC/ST Atrocities case.

Long range career advice. (Won't help you get a job tomorrow, this is a ~10-20 year thing)

You want to run two processes. Your main loop:

1. Knock on doors, many outside your league, and get yourself in a room with the most competent people who will have you.
2. Work your ass off to be reliably useful to them. Like, really, _really_ hard. However hard you think you're working to be reliably useful, work ten times harder. Also, be cheerful.
3. Every once in a while pop your head out and go to step 1.

Your background loop: look around for weird asymmetric opportunities. A startup to found/join, a project to hack on, an angel investment into a friend's company, whatever. When your heart sings, jump on it. (You will fail a lot but that's fine so long as you handle failure well, I'll cover that in another post)

In exchange for working really hard you get two things. First, knowledge/experience-- you learn a ton. Second, relationships-- ppl will remember how great it was to work with you. Knowledge and relationships with competent ppl create crazy asymmetric opportunities. You then jump on those. (There is a lot of twitter slop about compounding, well this is what career compounding looks like.)

---

Now some failure modes. Do _not_ do this:

"I deserve much better than this company/role, I'm just going to begrudgingly collect a paycheck" --> first, you deserve what the market clears and that's that. Second, if you act this way you'll only hurt yourself. Your colleagues will remember you as a grouch and it will wreck the compounding loop. Third, it's a very unpleasant state to be in, and you should choose not to be in it.

"But I work at Home Depot, what's there to compound?" --> that's extremely shortsighted. Maybe you do a super good job helping a customer who then has an open spot and remembers you. Maybe your store manager becomes a regional manager and calls you. Maybe years down the line your quiet peer is looking for a partner to start their own store. Maybe none of this happens, but it doesn't matter because empirically ppl who try hard to be useful wherever they are tend to do great, and people who don't, don't. (Home Depot is a metaphor, obviously)

"I hate this place, I quit! And anyway they're a faceless corporation that will lay me off any time." --> don't do that. The company may be a faceless corporation, but your colleagues are not faceless. They bet on you, hopefully you did a great job, and now they depend on you. Leaving is never easy, but do it in a way that respects the trust ppl put in you.

"Everyone around me is an idiot, I hate this!" --> maybe they are, or maybe you're not ready and some day will discover you were wrong about this. In any case you can learn from everyone and everything. So do that and be useful, don't break the compounding loop because opportunities will surprise you and things are often not what they seem.

“_I_ should have been promoted not that other guy/why is my manager layering me, screw this!” --> every time that happened i eventually understood I deserved it, you probably do too. Don’t hold grudges, do your best to figure out how to learn from this and move on, it will make sense eventually.

P.S. it helps if you’re a little talented.

And you will need 1000 more births to see her stature.

Thanks to our constitution, a Tribal woman, from Santhal community, 0.5% of total population, is President of the largest democracy of the world.

Your shithole country will need another 1000 years to achieve this.

Dr. Pratosh at IISc Bengaluru tells his students that rapid advances in AI are commoditizing intellectual labour.

He raises an unsettling question: if companies stop recruiting on campus in the next 5–10 years—even at India’s top universities—what will the purpose of a university education be ?

Five years ago, when India opened up its space sector, we had two clear objectives: enable ISRO to conquer new frontiers and empower our private industry to scale up.

Today, we are seeing both take shape.

EOS-05 is a major achievement by ISRO, and this is just the beginning.

At the same time, from barely a handful of space startups five years ago, India today has over 450. Indian private industry has already flown a rocket to orbit.

Now comes the real test: scaling up.

We have set ourselves an ambitious target of 50 launches a year by 2030.

A goal of this scale cannot be achieved by one organisation alone. Government and private industry have to build this future together.

ISRO’s research will continue to push the frontiers of what is possible. Private industry must translate that momentum into manufacturing at scale: more rockets, more satellites, more launch capacity and new technologies.

That is how we will build a complete space ecosystem and create the capacity to match our ambition.

The opportunity before us is immense: build in India, launch from India and serve the world from India.

We are well on our way to taking India’s space sector to a new orbit, figuratively and literally. @isro @INSPACeIND

Police rupture the farmer's son's testicles after he complains about the bribe in India.

The farmer’s son was called to Govardhan police station and brutally kicked in the private parts by the chowki incharge after he filed a complaint on the CM portal about a ₹20,000 bribe demand.

Five years ago, India's defence workers revolted. Their unions threatened to shut down 41 factories. The courts were flooded with petitions to stop the government.

Today, that same decision has more than doubled defence production and turned India into an ammunition supplier to Europe.

This is the story of the reform Indians never wanted and that the typical media didn't much appreciate, but how it worked…
