My entire life changed when I realized that nobody was thinking about me.
It completely rewired my brain.
I wonder how many extraordinary people waste their lives fearing the judgement of people who were never even thinking about them in the first place. Fearing a spotlight that was never even on. Performing for an audience that was never even there.
Because the truth is that you aren't afraid of failure. At least not really. You're afraid of other people seeing you fail. You're afraid of what they'll think of you.
But nobody is thinking about you. Everybody's too busy thinking about themselves.
So, that thing you've always wanted to do? Just go do it.
The disturbing reports emerging from Rawalakot are consistent with the Pakistani authorities’ long history of unlawful violence against protesters in Jammu and Kashmir.
A prompt, independent, and transparent investigation must be ordered into the security forces’ use of force against protesters.
So long as an internet and mobile services blackout remains in place, it will severely impede the independent verification of the full extent of the situation on the ground.
We urge the Pakistani authorities to restore all communications access and allow media and independent observers into the area
Shishupal was the king of Chedi kingdom.
He was powerful and arrogant. He believed he was invincible.
He committed countless sins and was a habitual offender.
But the moment he committed his 101st sin, Lord Krishna unleashed the Sudarshan Chakra and killed him on the spot.
Moral of the story-
Righteousness always triumphs over arrogance and wrongdoing. Justice may take time, but it is absolute.
It reminds us that even infinite patience has a limit and relentless evil will always lead to its own downfall.

#BREAKING: PoJK Civilian leader Sardar Umar Nazir calls out terrorism against civilians by Pakistani Security Forces, confirms that over 40 innocent civilians killed in last three days of protest. Overall close to 90 civilians killed since June 5. No international media outrage.
Here’s some unsolicited advice to the government on what to do to help boost India’s sovereign model story.
1. Mandate domestic models for all non-critical functions
Government needs to be a guaranteed buyer for homegrown models. There are tons of applications that don’t require SOTA performance. (To be clear, for mission-critical use-cases, using anything other than SOTA would be a shortsighted decision)
China got ahead because of their domestic demand (Anthropic and OpenAI models don’t work there).
2. Release massive distillations of chain-of-thought of SOTA Chinese models on diverse prompts (and post-process to remove China bias)
Inference is easy and cheap. So the government should simply create a national public repository of SOTA reasoning chains in order to prevent each model creator doing it separately. Centralize and absorb the cost.
Thinking Machines (US company) did finetuning on Kimi 2.5 to bootstrap reasoning. Indian model companies would do the same, and government can help by footing the bill.
3. Procure diverse RL environments and release them publicly
Modern frontier models train on 100k+ RL environments having 10s of tasks each. These RL environments are driving most of the progress. Model companies pay billions of dollars for procuring them. Government should simply centralize and absorb this cost.
4. Give full travel sponsorship to Indian authors with A* conference accepts
If an Indian gets into NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR main conference, simply sponsor them to attend the conference to present their paper. It’s rounding error in govt’s budget as ~100 Indian papers get into such conferences (0.3-0.5% of papers are Indian primary authors), but would go a long way in establishing a culture of basic R&D which is required to go beyond the frontier in next 5-10 years.
#BREAKING: Massive violence is being reported in Pakistan Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (PoJK) after firing by Pakistani security forces on the day of sham stage managed elections. Pakistani forces must be fuming with resistance shown by people by full scale boycott of polls.
Thousands gathered in Rawalakot before marching towards Muzaffarabad as protests over governance and electoral reforms continued ahead of regional elections.
More than 45 people have been killed and hundreds injured since the unrest began in June.
