If a Nobel laureate in Physics describes a text on Physics as a source of simplicity, then something must be done right.

Louis Bloomfield's How Things Work is truly a "user manual" based on observation and simple reasoning; something that continues to pique my curiosity.

Maverick by @ricardosemler details the work culture of Semco.

A particular trait that appeals to me is for leaders to treat employees like adults.

Permitting decision-making through accountability, while resisting the urge to micro-manage seem like qualities of great leaders.

Sonke Ahrens, in his work "How to Take Smart Notes", advocates for a system of consuming information.

Relentless tinkering with this system has enabled me to develop my own flavour that has sustained my journey through a myriad of rabbit-holes.

Fantastic movie!

Shiv Sena's ignorance is the real insult to Hanuman, not the mural at IIT-Bombay https://t.co/WXAjaTpxJU
