Globally acclaimed VC @khoslaventures, led by IIT alumnus Vinod Khosla, has invested $25 million in Broccoli AI. It is an AI-native platform co-founded by BITS Pilani Goa campus alumni (Batch of 2016) AJ Jain and Aditya Ketkar. Proving the product's massive impact, early customer Marcelle Flowers rapidly scaled her 30-year-old firm, Armstrong Plumbing, and has now joined the Broccoli AI team as Executive Industry Advisor & COO.
From pairing up during a New Venture Creation course on campus to scaling an AI-native powerhouse in Silicon Valley, AJ and Aditya continue to make the BITS community incredibly proud.
We congratulate the entire Broccoli AI team and look forward to watching their next chapter unfold, especially as they gear up for expansion and hiring in India!

My father got a call from this number, with a dp of a police officer claiming I have been caught with a rapist and to protect me from media and FIR, he will need to pay him 1 lakh. At that exact moment, my number wasn't reachable.
Thankfully, my father did not give in.
Leftism is an intellectual muscle-suit that has allowed a lot of non-smart, poorly-informed people to tell themselves they're smart and well-informed because their ignorance gets a ton of likes on this platform
@shreyaaatha I think I'd be relieved. I feel guilty at times that an important tab is lying open and I haven't read it (because I don't feel like). So I don't end up closing it also. I'd be okay if the system deleted it for me, 14 days is a reasonable time.
Fedex SCAM ALERT!! 🚨🚨🚨 @FedExIndia @FedEx
I got a call from +91 7716228429. An IVRS voice said "Fedex International Parcel could not be delivered. Press 1 for details."
My office sends and receives couriers from abroad, and my phone number is used sometimes. I pressed 1.

In my 2nd year in Canada, I went to York University. I considered myself a feminist in Iran, so I wanted to see what was new in feminism.
I took gender studies...
I remember walking out of the class thinking, "I guess the West had a good run. It was bound to end at some point."
In one class, we were told to think of signs of patriarchy. I asked, could hijab be considered a sign of patriarchy? Oh boy! I got mobbed by several 18-year-olds (I was 32), and called ignorant and a bigot. The professor didn't feel like any of that was insulting to me.
But when I dared to tell someone "You misunderstood my point", the professor cut me off and said I can't talk like that.
After the class, very confused, I asked about the clown show I just witnessed.
She said: "You can't say they're wrong."
I asked What if they are though?
"There is no wrong. Every worldview and experience is valid. You can't shut them down."
This was my first time facing this cult. So I said what experience? Puberty? Living in their parent's house and getting an allowance? They're 18. What worldview?
"Age has nothing to do with it."
I dropped out a couple of months later, traumatized after several heated debates with the Gender Studies and Anthropology professors.
Humanities in these universities have one job. to destroy the foundational values of a student imprinted by the family and brainwash and turn them into the clones of their incompetent joyless ideologues/professors.
Western universities have been producing these indoctrinated NPCs for decades. What's going on right now is the result.
75 glorious years of 'Duty, Drill and Discipline'!
The Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy celebrates 75 years in service to the nation on 15th September 2023, marking the beginning of the 75th Academy Week.
Leadership is lonely. Ambition is lonely. Building is lonely.
Even if you have a great company or great spouse, a lot of the journey is internal & you're on your own.
It's really hard to bear, and people will drop out over time.
You have to want it in your core.
An absolute joy to welcome 22 IPS Probationers of 75 RR (2022 batch) at @MeghalayaPolice HQ, Shillong.
Had an excellent interaction with young, energetic & talented officers. Their enthusiasm & commitment to understand the nitty gritty of policing in India was inspiring indeed!
A really interesting 1997 essay about how India is still recovering from the conquests and genocides of the late medieval and early modern periods:

In 1947, few people gave us 75 years.
Bloody hell, here we are!
It is up to us to make this country the best version of itself.
