Parquet is slow?

Infino is the fastest vector DB in the world: https://t.co/IaS8FLUbT7

Built natively on Parquet.

[Vinay Kakade @vkakade]

Not really. The main difference is MLOps deals with data+code. And the interactions are complex as code that executes (i.e., model) itself depends on the data (used for training).

[Jo Kristian Bergum @jobergum]

MLOps was a mistake. We don't need to reinvent the wheel just because a part of the software stack has learned weights.

Congratulations @Whyireless!

[Navin Kabra @NGKabra]

And we have one more unicorn in Pune. This is not really a Pune company, but one of the cofounders is here and a significant fraction of the dev team is also here.

Congratulations @TaranaWireless @Whyireless @neeran

@VishalDayama So few people understand the implications of web3 beyond the financial applications. So, need to keep on meeting each other to reinforce the belief!!

People ask me if students should be taught coding at early age (10+). My response has been: It is useful only if the student has inclination for it. And if a student likes it, no harm in starting on the journey of creation at a young age! #edtech #coding

Anyone knowing a workaround for paying subscription fees for websites (like Vercel, Webflow) which have banned recurring Indian Debit/Credit Cards? (due to RBI regulations)

Even international cards issued from India are not working. What can be done?

@amodm If the candidate fumbles on "Why?", I would suggest rephrasing as "What are some examples you experienced where Amazon demonstrated exceptional customer focus?". Would reduce the candidate's nervousness and you'll get an insight into their thinking.

The future of landscape and interior design!

While teaching kids, the feedback is immediate. You will see the struggle when the kids fail to grasp, and also a twinkle in their eyes when they understand something that seemed magical.

@Dan_Schulman @pahujaa @AskPayPal @PayPalIN The claim that FIRC (imp for taxes) is automatically available for Indian merchants is false. Had been fighting to get it, and PayPal told me that 50% accounts don't get it automatically. Pl make this available, or change your website

A lot of has been written about FreshWorks IPO. Have been reading @mrgirish for quite some time, and am always humbled by his writing. Here is a blog from early days that still continues to inspire many founders - https://t.co/kxEyOFBHdv #startups #Freshworks #IPO

What is a true measure of a leader's success? To me, it is how many lives the leader was able to impact positively. #Leadership #impact

Love it! A river joined by other rivers only makes it stronger. OTOH, the ladder only moves one person up, leaving the rest behind.

[Bridget Thoreson @BridgetThoreson]

I’m rejecting the career ladder metaphor in favor of the career river. Here’s why:

1. The ultimate goal of the career ladder is: reach the top.

The ultimate goal of the career river is: reach your ocean - a thriving, wide-open ecosystem fed by other rivers to explore. /

A big challenge of a bootstrapped founder: how to divide equity with early team so that they feel valued, leave enough for future hires -- as well as make sure significant pie is left for the founding team so that the equity would be worth something in the long term! #startup
