@vibhutea88@NeerajKumar_@Uber_India Same thing happened with me. The driver insisted that I had booked non-AC and asked for extra cash. I showed him on app that it wasn't. Asked him to cancel midway. I complained later. Uber just refunded the difference ₹18 for AC and said they've made a note 🤷♀️
Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M+ research papers and made them freely available
And now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot.
It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles.
But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer.
I'm putting the link below so you know how to avoid it.
Every single year, Bangaloreans whine about the intolerable heat for exactly 30 days, in April.
And then the rains hit and everyone goes back to remembering how awesome the climate in Blr really is while the rest of India are just starting summer
Nobody asked to be born. You chose to have the child. The child didn't choose you. So the "I sacrificed for you" argument should stop. Parents should stop the emotional manipulation of their adult children. The world is tight on them already. They're not your retirement plan.
There’s a new kind of burnout now.
Not from working too much.
From trying to keep up
with tools, models, frameworks, launches,
and 600 people saying “it’s over” every morning.
The use case of farmland is evolving. One example:
A Rent A Tree startup from Kochi lets people lease a mango tree and enjoy the entire harvest without doing any farming.
It operates farms in 3 states
Customers can rent a tree from ₹10,300 and receive up to 90 kg of naturally ripened mangoes.
Pick a tree online, farm managed by company and delivers Mangoes to your home
If such models scale, farmland monetisation will evolve rapidly
I strongly believe institutional capital will make land tokenisation reality in the next decade.
If that happens, we may see the next wave of millionaires coming from villages.
I am beginning to understand why I love people who ask thoughtful questions
there are thoughts that do not come out without the right prompting. I see that prompting as very valuable in eliciting language that is not a memorized performance. do you know what I mean? can you hear it, when someone is speaking to you, and neither of you knows how the sentence will end? It feels like magic. I live for that feeling, when we go off script, and invent a new possibility.
I feel as though I spend most of my time waiting for those few precious moments of impossible connection
@theafterlight8 No consequences. No responsibility.
Preference for functionality/convenience/jugaad over aesthetics, esp in public spaces.
Garbage attracts garbage - once a place is "marked" it's doomed even if you clean it.
