A drop in the bucket. But it is my drop.

Declined first engagement linked to a grant funded by @FCDOGovUK and @sida, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency.

Have already removed @KfW_FZ_int and @USAID from our list of approved partners and financiers.

The smartest English departments will double down on ensuring their students have read long arduous books, numerous a semester. They’ll have reading labs where students read & take physical notes for 3 hours at a time. They advertise their students can concentrate for hours.

@hussainshahid @shakeelkhoja @EDIBAKarachi on the other side of the fence ...

The first major university that publicly commits to a total AI ban in its undergrad teaching (no AI in class, in creating syllabi or class prep, creating & completing assignments, or grading) and makes that part of its brand will see a major surge in applications & enrollment.

Now reading loon shots while on airport duty in Karachi.

Why great teams with the best of intentions kill great ideas. And sponsors of those ideas written off as unhinged and crazy.

Thank you @vkhosla for the recommendation. Bought everything on that list.

HEC attestation is nothing more than a means to make money. Why can’t an HEC recognised university issue an already HEC attested degree?

You wanna keep making money? Fine. Universities can just add that amount to the last semester fee. Degrees should come pre-attested.

SSGC has truly paid off any debt it owed to this city with interest. And compound interest at that.

Didn't realize that they were also big fans of visual arts given the art work they left across city roads.

@arhuml92 @sophiaahmed @theleatherdude @abay_insaan_ban @jeemaenbay So when are we meeting for coffee and muffin?

The last 5k I ran on the 2nd day of Eid this year was 40 minutes.

And I have been limping ever since that run.

[Jawwad Farid @rebootdude]

Nothing but respect for training regime, the discipline, the commitment and the fire inside to make this happen.

Can't even get close to doing one at this pace, let alone 8x back to back.

[Andy @ABJ_LFC]

For anyone that’s ever run a 5K before, here are his splits for all 8 consecutive each 5K’s -

14:14
14:21
14:35
14:11
14:20
14:22
13:54 
13:42

That’s ridiculous 🤯

The Power Division has formally requested NEPRA to review the recent framework and restore maximum facilitation for solar consumers up to 25kW in the form of zero license fee and no requirement of licenses up to 25kW.

Our government is pro-solar, pro-consumer, and committed to clean energy. We want to remove unnecessary barriers, reduce costs, and provide as much relief as possible to the people of Pakistan.

@hussainshahid You finally saw it. :)

Should read the book. It does a better job on the science front.

[Jawwad Farid @rebootdude]

Taught myself the basics of film editing at 45.

Now teaching myself the basics of 2D animation at 55.

An education's best gift is the ability to learn anything at anytime.

Learning how to learn. Doesn't matter how old, how out of touch, or how irrelevant you are.

@peterfrankopan Thank you Peter. You should one day make the trek on the old silk road trails off Gilgit, Hunza, Skardu and Khaplu.

If you haven't already. For more color on part III of your series.

All praise to the Almighty, the most Gracious , the most Beneficent, the most Merciful, the Rab of all worlds.

Alhamdulilah.
