RIP, @om . Always curious, open to discussing ideas, but fearless to question what didn't make sense. A big loss. 🙏

[True Ventures @trueventures]

It is with profound sadness that we share the news of Om Malik’s passing.

It’s difficult to state the impact that @om had on all of our lives at True.

Om was the first Founder we funded when we started True. In our Presidio office, Om discussed his idea for a new type of media company. That idea would later become GigaOm.

Om was a brilliant Founder, an amazing teammate and Partner at True, a prolific writer, a gifted photographer, and a sage and valuable advisor to so many in the technology ecosystem.

Om was brilliant, thoughtful, humorous, profoundly kind, and deeply curious. He was also relentless when he had an idea or story. Om was brave - he never shied away from sharing his views or pushing for the truth.

We were very, very lucky to call Om our Partner and friend at True for these last many years.

For today, we simply encourage you to take a moment to remember this beautiful soul and great thinker who was in our midst. He would ask us to slow down a bit. Om would want us to think deeper, express our love for one another a lot more.

Above all else, Om wanted us all to retain our humanity and care for each other in our brilliant quest to rebuild the world.

We love you Om.

Team True

Lol, from the actor himself

[Hugh Laurie @hughlaurie]

Thanks for your critique, Janet. We actually tried a couple of episodes where House (Hugh Laurie) (please put the brackets in the right place) gets it right first time, but they were only 6 minutes long. NBC weren’t happy. Then we tried some where House never gets it right and the patient dies. The audience wasn’t happy.

One could apply your trenchant analysis to other art forms: JS Bach wrote 30 Goldberg variations on the same chord structure; Frida Kahlo painted 50 portraits of herself; Henry Moore, what??

The point is, or was, variations on a theme; if all you see is hospital, medical blah blah, then it wasn’t meant for you.

Nonetheless, I look forward to your first novel!

@sriramk @aarthir Thanks Sriram for your contributions!

@vijayshekhar @aravind @theallinpod @Jason @bgurley Localization could be a huge space. E.g. Mozilla Firefox browser got to 30% market around 2009 by focusing on it (plus grassroot movement) despite some big players by then. Come on Vijay, Next up, #LLMKaro! :)

[Sandip Kamat @sankam]

@sundarpichai Lol, Let's do it! :)

@GabbbarSingh Good writing. Reminded me of P. L. Deshpande's visual depiction of familiar yet so nuanced characters.

Google is killing it with new AI use cases. Google Book and then this:
💻 🤖 🖱️
I can almost imagine this AI cursor being launched on Mac by Jobs.

@sundarpichai is not only making Google AI native but also super innovative.

Android is the only platform purpose-built for the agentic era. We’re upgrading the experience to make your phone more proactive and helpful, so you can spend less time looking at a screen 🤳and more time living your life. 🚴

To make this happen, we’re focused on 3 big things:
1️⃣ Transforming Android from an OS into an Intelligence System.
2️⃣ Elevating core experiences and digital wellbeing.
3️⃣ Going beyond the phone with a new category of laptop: Googlebooks.

I’m incredibly proud of the teams and the speed we’re innovating at. Tech should be personal, proactive, and—most importantly—it should just work. Check out the full recap from The Android Show: https://t.co/acDP7GVL1c

NEW: Students go nuts after donor announces during his commencement speech that he is paying off all of their senior year debts.

Anil Kochhar and his wife decided to give the gift to all ~200 graduates in N.C. State's family.

Kochhar is the son of Prakash Chand Kochhar, an immigrant from India who studied textile manufacturing in Raleigh.

"My father found not just an education, but an opportunity that allowed him to build a life, support his family, and begin a legacy that continues today. And it will never stop, never," Kochhar said.

[Second Lady Usha Vance @SLOTUS]

Happy Mother's Day to all! I enjoyed celebrating with my favorite storyteller: my mom, Lakshmi Chilukuri. I hope you enjoy her reading "How the Camel Got His Hump" on Storytime with the Second Lady as much as I did.

🇮🇳 India's Airbound unveiled their autonomous drone that takes off like a helicopter and flies like a plane, and weighs less than a bag of sugar.

It is built from carbon fibre and covers up to 40 km on a single charge.

Indian mangoes were always in demand in the US. But this year, Americans seem to be going crazy for them! What changed?
