No dairy in paneer.
No soya in soya chaap.
Basically, at this point we are mostly consuming factory made look a-likes, thats it.
India needs stronger food guidelines and regulations.
Food delivery companies should take the lead here. Think for your consumers.
Lost a childhood friend. Studied at the same school for 12 years, same JEE coaching, played together. Countless memories!
If you aren’t doing this, then start:
Take care of your health. Eat clean & exercise.
Put a hard stop to your day, keep time for yourself.
I’m obsessed with learning how to learn.
So, I spent 100+ hours studying how Sam Altman absorbs information.
Here’s what I found on becoming a learning machine:
Nothing reveals depth of people more than the quality of questions they ask.
Questions are tools that allows us to understand the world and progress in someone can be seen in quality of questions over a period of time.
Luck is a big part of any success in life. It starts right from birth, with our genes, parents, family, etc.—all of these are the luck of the draw.
None of the success that's ascribed to us would have happened without my father. He was not only the biggest cheerleader of @nikhilkamathcio and me but also the first customer whenever we attempted something. In a way, he was our VC.
He gave me the initial seed capital when I decided to trade, he was my first customer when I did multi-level marketing, and the first customer when I started a sub-brokerage and portfolio management business. He supported us in anything that we tried, no matter how foolish it seemed in hindsight. All of this with the limited resources he had access to.
One of the most emotional moments in my professional journey was when I was invited to speak at Canara Bank, where my dad worked his entire life until he retired a decade back, with him in the audience and in tears when I was giving the talk.
He gave his whole life to the bank and helped many small businessmen without any expectations. He saw the success of his customers as his own success. He embodied the traditional Indian middle-class values that hopefully we both can stick with throughout our lives, even when he is no longer with us to guide us.
Here is one to all the fathers and mothers behind the scenes of almost every successful person out there.
I am not sure if others are seeing this.
But #COVID19 is still here and it is behaving very weirdly.
Young children ages 4-12 are getting sick. They are not getting "critically-ill," but are losing lots of school days and are just drained because of a new set of severe symptoms.
Adults are not getting affected.
In all of the families I have noted this, dults are all OK or says "they felt a passing flu."
But children are dispropotionately affected, losing school days, drained out of their energy and losing appetite for many days.
Runny nose is quite severe.
Something stands out - frequent, tiresome sneezing.
A strange dry cough, sometimes with a thick, tenacious phlegm or dry "whoop."
The cough is associated with severe throat pain only during active coughing.
There is a short period of 1-2 days of self-limiting breathlessness.
Coughing in children sometimes relentless, leading to vomiting from "cough-fatigue."
There is no loss of taste or smell, but there is a high level of 'alteration' of specific taste - its most commonly to "sweet" and "salty" where children feel both as "sourness or bitter."
What stands out the most is - severe fatigue and weakness, that sometimes, while standing, children get giddiness or vertigo. They sleep for hours long.
The symptom onset in subsequent exposed children are few weeks apart, not like the few days to a week we used to see in the pandemic days.
The new variants are called EG.5 [Eris] and the upcoming one is BA.2.86 [Pirola] and JN.1 [Pirola].
You wont get these fellows on standard/routine PCR tests. This is called the "pre-Covid" phenomenon. This means that people are showing signs of Covid even with a negative test and upon being tested again after a week or so, the result comes positive.
It is not progressing to critical disease and lives are not at stake immediately, but I am worried what the future might hold for our children in India when they are hit with newer variants? #Covid_19 is notorious when it comes to dyregulating the host immune system and I am seeing a lot of young adults with liver disease - especially recurrent hepatitis, neurological symptoms, and rheumatological & muskuloskeletal diseases, and unexplained liver test abnormalities after the Omicron peak of Covid, now.
No one seem to talking about this.
Where are the newer vaccines to protect our children in India? If there are effective updated vaccines available, why is the health regulatory department not updating this for the peoples (and childrens) well-being? Why are we not AT LEAST self-realizing the importance of masking in schools if we cannot protect our children by giving them preventive shots? Have we all conviniently accepted that we are going to face a barrage of post-Covid health issues in children in the future, as part of #LongCovid by ignoring preventive measures that we can put in place now?
Nobody is coming to save you.
Not your friends. Not your family. Not the government
They can offer advice and tools.
But at the end of the day, it's up to you to change your mind and act regardless of how you feel.
A thread of advice you need to hear:
PSLV-C57/Aditya-L1 Mission:
Aditya-L1, the first space-based Indian observatory to study the Sun ☀️, is getting ready for the launch.
The satellite realised at the U R Rao Satellite Centre (URSC), Bengaluru has arrived at SDSC-SHAR, Sriharikota.

While Chandrayaan-3 is orbiting around the moon,
- What is the Current Space Situation around the moon?
- How the objects around the moon are tracked?
- Are there chances of close approaches?
are some of the interesting questions.
