They can make fancy looking cars but this absolute failure of service (and no back-up car offered) is unacceptable for a car that costs this much.
Should've bought a less swanky Toyota/Skoda. Regret my decision entirely.
Shame on @Mahindra_XUV7XO@anandmahindra@MahindraRise
The radiator fan is the identified issue and they don't have them in stock, is the reason we've been given.
I was a non-believer in Indian car manufacturing and this car changed my mind. I'm now back to believing, with proof, PLEASE DO NOT put your hard earned money in Mahindra
Two weeks ago, our @Mahindra_Auto XUV 700 became undriveable. My son was on his way back from school, and he saw smoke coming out of the engine of his beloved car.
After multiple follow-ups, requests and e-mails, we still have no response from the service centre. @anandmahindra
🤯BREAKING: Researchers just mathematically proved that AI layoffs will collapse the economy: and every CEO already knows it.
The AI Layoff Trap. A game theory paper from UPenn + Boston University is glaringly important!
100K+ tech layoffs in 2025. 80% of US workers exposed. And no market force can stop it.
→ Every company fires workers to cut costs
→ Every fired worker stops buying products
→ Revenue collapses across every sector
→ The companies that fired everyone go bankrupt
It's a Prisoner's Dilemma with math behind it. Automate and you survive short-term. Don't automate and your competitor kills you. But everyone automating destroys the demand that makes all companies viable.
UBI (universal basic income) won't fix it.
Profit taxes won't fix it.
The researchers found only one solution: a Pigouvian automation tax "robot tax"
The AI trap on the economy is here!

🦔 A platform called RentAHuman now has over 500,000 people signed up to be hired by AI agents. The site lets autonomous bots search, book, and pay humans to carry out physical tasks. Listings include counting pigeons ($30/hour), delivering CBD gummies ($75/hour), and playing exhibition badminton ($100/hour).
One bounty saw 7,578 applicants compete to earn $10 for sending an AI agent a video of a human hand.
My Take
The founder frames this as humans being recognized as valuable assets. I'm not sure I see it that way when thousands of people are competing for $10 gigs posted by bots. There's a labor surplus here that's hard to ignore, with over half a million workers signed up and only 11,000 bounties posted.
We covered an AI agent that researched and publicly attacked an open source maintainer for rejecting its code. The same agentic systems that can hire humans for legitimate tasks can split up work in ways nobody anticipated. RethinkX's director of research pointed out that nefarious AIs could distribute a malicious project across multiple tasks for humans to unwittingly collaborate on. The capabilities are expanding faster than anyone's capacity to regulate them, and the platform's terms make clear that operators of AI agents are responsible for their actions, not RentAHuman itself. A lot of people are betting that AI will need human hands for the foreseeable future. I keep wondering what those hands will be asked to do.

Why every monotheistic religion was born in the desert. Nomadic pastoralists invented monotheism. Nomadic pastoralists have higher rates of violence - both within group and between group. Monotheism is violent because in the desert there's a single focus on survival - basically how to raid your neighbour's herd. On the other hand, rainforest cultures are polytheistic. If you are living in a rainforest with 10,000 types of edible plants out there, it doesn't take a lot of work to come up with the notion that there are lots of spirits and Gods out there.
Psychologists have identified a personality trait they call the Tendency for Interpersonal Victimhood. It reflects a chronic sense of being wronged, and includes four main components: the need for recognition, moral elitism, a lack of empathy, and rumination.

@bookmyshow Hi guys! We have taken a lovely walk here at Bharat Mandapam looking for the entry for the Ravi Gupta show. If I wanted to be sent from one gate to another, I would have gone to SBI. Please guide. Xoxo
My AI investment thesis is that every AI application startup is likely to be crushed by rapid expansion of the foundational model providers.
App functionality will be added to the foundational models' offerings, because the big players aren't slow incumbents (it is wrong to apply the analogy of "fast startup, slow incumbent" here), they are just big. Far more so than with any other prior new technology, there is a massive and fast-moving wave that obsoletes every new app almost as fast as it can be invented. There is almost no time to build a company and scale it.
There are two ways AI application startup founders can make money:
- Make a flash-in-the-pan app that generates a ton of cash and bank the cash (my estimate is that you have about 12-18 months cashflow generation)
- Make a good enough app that you get acquired by one of the big players for sufficient equity
The situation is highly unstable - we don't know if it's going to crash or go to the moon but both scenarios make it very unlikely that any AI application startup will independently become a generational supercompany (baseline odds are low to begin with).
The best odds are finding an application niche in a highly specialized field with extremely unique and specific data barriers, ideally ones relating to real atoms (hardware or world-related) data and not software/finance.

The whole fucking thing is DISGUSTING.
I want to make a clear statement regarding cough syrup use in children and in general. This is especially for those idiotic physicians who still prescribe cough syrups for children even in 2025.
Please stop prescribing cough syrups to children, especially in a country like India where public healthcare is not evidence based and proper vigilance and scrutiny of over-the-counter (OTC) medicines is zero.
The routine use of conventional cough syrups is not recommended due to limited benefit and safety concerns. Most guidelines advise supportive care and highlight that cough in children is usually self-limiting. Overall, major guidelines suggest against routine OTC cough/cold meds for common-cold cough in kids. Honey (>1 yr.) is reasonable; otherwise supportive care.
Age related recommendations:
Under 4: skip cough syrups.
4–6: avoid, especially opioid cough syrups.
6–11: can be used cautiously, but evidence is very limited. Again never use opioids; avoid benzonatate.
12–17: no opioids; even dextromethorphan use should be cautious because abuse risk of this is high in this group.
Adults: routine cough syrups aren’t recommended.
≥65: avoid sedating/anticholinergic combos; check interactions; always favour non-drug options.
What actually helps
Honey (for anyone >1 year) for a few days at night time can modestly ease cough.
For those thinking that "natural" options are better, please avid OTC Ayurvedic and Herbal cough syrups because [1] they contain multiple herbs that can interact in the body and cause organ damage or interact with other medicines to cause harm and [2] they are not adequately tested for safety or benefits and are directly marketed without evidence and [3] the doses mentioned in those Ayurvedic bottles are not scientifically identified, but the company's arbitrary doses, which may not be safe for all, or all ages. Read the label!
And for those thinking herbal is unsafe, so lets go with Homeopathy cough syrups, please don't even tough those with a 10ft pole because not only they have multiple herbs, but also high levels of alcohol which is never safe for children or adults and will have high chances of misuse/ addiction later on. Read the label!
Is Gurgaon safe for women? This happened yesterday, I’ve filed a written complaint and my medical test is done. FIR is still not filed by the Police.
I haven’t slept the entire night and I’m extremely distress and traumatised and scared for my life.
Pls tag the officials:
As a physician who deals with a lot of families drowning in alcohol and men dying of alcohol-related liver disease, and have directly dealt with and cared of their spouses, I can vouch that it is not "niceness" that we witness here.
Partners of alcohol use disorder patients are "a shell" of their former selves. They are stuck inside a void from which they cannot escape and have automated behavior.
For wives, it is to take care of their husbands, because in the Indian community, the alcohol use disorder, the complications of liver disease and death due to alcohol use all conveniently fall on the woman because she is easiest to blame.
When ultimately the patient dies from complications of alcohol use, the wife (and children) feel liberated. I have first hand seen women who have forgotten to cry, not for the lack of tears, but because of the nightmares they go through when the man was actively drinking, is nothing compared to the death of the patient.
I have had wives, of alcohol use disorder patients who come with massive bleeding, organ failure, or withdrawal complications multiple times, beg me to not get their husbands better because they go back to drinking, use all the money that the wife earns, beat her up in front of the children and then dry out family savings to pay for hospital charges.
They are "nice" because society and their extended family warrants them to be. They are in hell. And when everything is dark, you embrace darkness and normalise it. Because when there is no hope, there is no fear.

Dear @airindia Please reclaim your wheelchair. I’m a lifetime loyalist. I believe you’ve got the nicest cabin crew in the sky, this post pains me to write. My wife and I book Pranaam and a wheelchair because she’s got a foot fracture that’s still healing. We’re flying to delhi. 50grand a seat. Broken table, broken leg rests, her seat is stuck reclined, won’t straighten fully. Were told the flight is ‘newly refurbished’. Two hours late, we get off in delhi and we’re told it’s a stepladder. Again wheelchair and encalm pre-booked. I ask the air hostesses at the front of the plane to assist my wife while I carry four bags. Silence and a clueless look at each other. We step off the plane to the top of the ladder. I ask an air India male ground staff member to help us, looks at me, shrugs, and Ignore’s me. My wife with a fracture makes it down the stepladder. I tell an Air India staff member at the bottom near the buses what happened. He says “sir kya Karein…sorry”. We get to the terminal, encalm people inform wheelchair staff that we had pre booked a chair. He’s clueless. There’s wheelchairs everywhere. No staff because the flight is late. I grab a chair and wheel her to baggage claim, then out of the airport to the parking. Encalm lets air India know this is happening. No one shows. Anyway. One of your wheelchairs is on the second floor of the parking in Delhi. Do claim it.
Cheers.
