"We should constantly evaluate our friendships. Who's speaking into your life? Who are you depending on?" - Joel Osteen

"You deserve someone who makes you feel like you've been struck by lightning. Don't settle for 'fine." - Roy Kent

Friends inspire us to realize our dreams.

Today I received my PhD in Computer Science from MIT. The privilege to fail and try again is a rare opportunity. I will be sure not to do less than someone else would if they had the same opportunity.

@Microsoft Ilia, Illidan, and Illia who live in Illinois would appreciate if you would please choose a font that distinguishes the letters in their name.

@Mike_Pence @mike_pence I apologise for the remarks of your followers who either did not read or did not understand your thoughtful letter. You are a man of honor. Our nation is fortunate to have your honor, integrity, and principles among our leadership.

@MeekMill @vory777 Hey @MeekMill, I'm a rapper and a PhD in CS, audio, and AI from MIT, see https://t.co/BoC1ER80Su. I'm CTO of https://t.co/UprVnBCKSt and the advisor of the black fraternity, Nu Delta, at MIT. I can probably help.

For students applying for college / grad school... It feels like whether you get into your dream school is the most important decision, but it's not. The most important decision is what you do today with your 24 hours. And then again tomorrow.

Will have to read to see what the assumptions are, but at least mathematically and theoretically, time travel may be possible. Practically, it may require a feat of engineering beyond mankind's abilities, Im not sure yet.

US gov to international students: "Leave our country or expose yourself to COVID". These are #Hitlertimes. So proud of our MIT and Harvard leadership for suing the US government. Official injunction: https://t.co/gQjMYvYI7U

First TED talk! Made a bit of rap and MIT history this year with MIT playing a rap song during graduation, a song to bring us together in this time apart. Announced the "MIT Rap Challenge"

Most of my listeners are in US and India, but this past month, we got picked up in Europe. Shout out to all of you in London, Dublin, Madrid, and especially the folks in the rural areas who are too-often forgotten… https://t.co/mqZW2wRYLH

The 2020 virtual @mitcommencement had many great moments and contributions. But, surprisingly, I found that this (from @thephdrapper) is my personal favorite: https://t.co/Xw79Im0AIY

Excited to share a song to bring us together during this time apart, especially for the students who had to miss their graduation, and to show love to some who came before me and inspired me. "MIT" is single 2 of upcoming "The NERD album".

A free school to empower kids living in the slums in Mumbai. These guys screamed when they realized I brought modern studio recording equipment for them. Use it to let your voices be heard. Your message is real.… https://t.co/Obxmsdodf6

@TDDP_IN created a free school in the Mumbai slums to teach kids hip hop and empower them to make change. This is the goal of our upcoming #MPWRindia movement and album

[The Dharavi Dream Project @TDDP_IN]

Intrigued and impressed by TDDP’s vision, @thephdrapper actively supports the project and his generosity in donating high-tech recording equipment adds heaps of value to our school.

Freestyle show in the Dharavi slum. See what can happen in 60 seconds. Hip hop is about sharing, therapy, seeing eye to eye, connecting with someone different, realizing you're not alone in whatever you've been… https://t.co/9jF6yq5rFo

Freestyle show in the Dhavari slum. See what happens when they realize I'm thanking them, instead of just rapping about how dope I am. Rappers stand on stage, but it's not about us. It's about seeing eye to eye,… https://t.co/dklbxk54y9
