Would have been super tragic! Scary moment
I don’t think people understand just how close we just came to a major, major incident on a cricket field. Daryl Mitchell seems to be the only one who does. #NZvIND

+ way too much summarized reading (tl;dr is the norm, not a hack anymore)
We're about to enter a period where not reading or writing becomes as ubiquitous as smoking once was. We can hope people will eventually realize this is bad for them, as they did with smoking. But this is far from certain; the cost may not be as obvious.

Emudhra digital certificates have been compromised. Best of luck filing your GST, ROC ...or any income tax filings that need DSC. I think the govt needs to put out a TV advisory. You need to upgrade your browsers and root stores all across India. emudhra.we-have-a-problem.co… – at San Francisco, CA

One of the bigger trends across X-sphere is AI driven omnipotence - I can solve for everything all by myself -- giving way to I will solve for everything all by myself. This leads to a software for one mindset. I do not like this feature in this software - I will make one myself. I want this extra feature in this software _ I will make one for myself. I think this product is expensive - let me reverse engineer and make one . And from App Store to Product Hunt to Reddit to.. is a graveyard of ideas -because owning distribution is tough. Being disciplined about distribution is tougher. Headlines suggest a story. Summaries tell you what happened. But unless you read the book, you really don't know how to write one yourself. Where does this take me? To the office culture where there were BIC pens everywhere, and people lost respect for the honorable pen? :) To Wall-E where the consumption patterns created a junkyard of humanity proportions?

I have always maintained this… when valuation becomes more important than the value a business has, you have wrong incentives
Gaurav Munjal loses his faith. Unacademy's abysmal outcome has got Munjal to change his views on all things ed-tech. In this State of the Unicorn series interview, Munajl says ed-tech is either entertainment or test prep, everything else is useless. @MorningContext
