PH Kurian is no more. Condolences.
There are so many stories to write about this man. We need a culture of journalism that respects the dead not through dry obits, but through the kind of deeply reported, vivid, humane life stories that make a person live again on the page.
Stories that capture the contradictions, character, wit, failures and quiet significance of a life. Kurian deserves that kind of remembrance.

Arvind Datar is the country’s most respected Tax Lawyer and he, like Nani on whom he wrote that wonderful book, is also a constitutional law jurist! Has the ED completely lost it that it has issued summons to him for an opinion he had given to an entity facing investigation? If senior counsels start getting ED notices for legal opinions can you imagine where we have arrived as a nation? The SC should take suo moto notice of this lunacy!

Now Streaming: 24 cuts, an apology, and outrage over a name—why did #Empuraan spark such a storm?
On South Central 21, @PoojaPrasanna4 and @leenareghunath speak to lawyer @niknaren and TNM’s @nanduagain on what the backlash reveals about soft Hindutva, censorship, and Kerala’s political divides.
Why are we okay with AI replacing underpaid manual labor but uneasy when it disrupts well-paid creative jobs?
A viral tweet goes
‘I want AI to do my laundry so I can write—not write so I can do my laundry.’
As we enter the 5th Industrial Revolution, IP-heavy industries like law, consulting, and arts are feeling the heat.
Has IP, born in the Industrial Revolution, run its course? Can we rethink it for an AI-driven plentiverse—a world of abundance?
The first country to innovate IP laws led the last revolution. Will history repeat itself?
These are the questions I delve into in my TEDx talk, “Who Owns Creativity?- Intellectual Property in an AI- driven world” #AI #ip #ArtificialIntelligence #disruption
