Excl: Ground reality vs official records: Census fieldwork is throwing up data that differ from govt records on open defecation free villages, use of cow dung cakes/kerosene/crop residue for cooking in urban areas despite LPG connection, no electricity. Enumerators asked to revisit and review the “data discrepancies”.I ✍️

Express investigates Delhi municipality's mishandling of road dust -- the largest contributor of PM 2.5 and PM 10.

https://t.co/ux9AkH15zO

1) Delhi’s road-dust cleanup is badly misaligned with the pollution cycle: sweeping is heaviest in winter, when political pressure peaks, but lightest in summer, when dust is worst.

2) The city has far too few mechanized sweeping vehicles for the scale of the problem. Center said it needs 505. It has only 76.

3) Even so, the limited fleet is underused for much of the year.

4) Cleaning appears skewed toward better-funded municipal areas rather than being distributed by need.

This cool interactive dashboard shows areas and frequency of road dust sweeping in delhi:

The result is a system that looks active on paper, but is weak where it matters most.

Tech companies are succeeding in making us think of life itself as inconvenient and something to be continuously escaping from, into digital padded rooms of predictive algorithms and single-tap commands: Reading is boring; talking is awkward; moving is tiring; leaving the house is daunting. These are all frictions that we can now eliminate, easily, and we do.

Once we’ve adopted a habit of escaping from something, whether it’s Uber-ing dinner five nights a week or using AI for replying to texts, the act of return, which is how we might describe no longer using a tool of escape, feels full of irritating friction. In these moments, we become exactly like toddlers in the five minutes after the iPad is taken away: The dullness and labor of embodied existence is unbearable.

“This is why I have resolved to commit to make 2026 a year of friction-maxxing, as an individual but more importantly as a parent,” Kathryn Jezer-Morton writes.

There are some obvious places to begin your friction-maxxing journey. Stop sharing your location with your kids and your partner. Stop using ChatGPT completely. No, it does not have good ideas for meal planning. Buy a cookbook. Text your friends for advice. Go to Trader Joe’s. Invite people over to your house without cleaning it all the way up.

Friction-maxxing is not simply a matter of reducing your screen time, it’s the process of building up tolerance for “inconvenience” — and then reaching even toward enjoyment. And then, it’s modeling this tolerance, followed by enjoyment and humor, for our kids.
