Did it hit you that a centibillionaire, Jensen Huang, is less free than a random plumber?
Some people are a joy to talk to, they are so tuned with themselves makes the conversation effortless.

My father was a Tata employee,now retired. Every year he used to get Diwali ank printed especially for Tata employees written and edited by Tata employees. Some of the best marathi stories i have read there.
The Marathi Diwali ank time begins :) Marathi magazines have special Diwali editions for their readers. A beautiful cover of Waghur Diwali ank by Anvar Husain, a celebrated book cover designer.

If you get your book reccos from twitter, how do go onto saving them? Just take a screenshot or type the name out somewhere in notes?

My wife had a dream last night, where she was the traffic police shouting at people honking and the picks up vehicles from streets and puts them aside for wrong side, speeding and jumping red light. She was also handing out challans to the offenders
I thought why not turn it into a game for her to play, so i vibecoded it and called it Pull-over.
Last year in November i lost a good friend of mine, he was just 31. He had dreams, he had just trekked Mt. Kilimanjaro and was training for Mt. Fuji.
It took me a month to process that he is no more in this world but one thing became clear. Life is unexpected, random and short too. Its not that i didnt knew that, but i guess i needed revision. Since then i have realized i want to have fun as along i am here, do what i want, do stupid shit, do small shit, laugh on myself and try to enjoy the moments that i have with my people.
Luckily last month, i lost my job after working for almost 6 years at a single place. I consider this as the best opportunity to start something new, something i will be excited about and also get a chance to look at life via different lens which i often keep forgetting to look at.
This is not a advice or a suggestion, that you should do this too. I am lucky and privileged enough to have a supportive partner and parents which gives me the courage take this leap.
I know this is cringe but since the day i have lost my friend i frequently think about this quote "Until death, all defeat is psychological". May you find the courage to do what you want out of life and dont have to pay a price of losing someone just to realize you are not living the life that you want.
My friends make fun of me (in a good way) calling me the sabbatical guy. I encourage people to take sabbaticals, start businesses, or generally do something exciting and explore life a bit more.
If you work a shitty job, get your head out of autopilot and put all your energy into finding something fun. Imagine having to spend major chunk of your day in a shitty job.
There is more to life than work. When you continue operating in autopilot, it's hard to see that. Give yourself time to be bored.
Life is short. Don't spent it arguing with wrong people on Slack (or even worse teams).
You don't need to fully know what you should do. If you know what you don't want to do, start by quitting those.

got my mom's watch repaired at titan care yesterday and realised the margins are insane there for small works, paid 500rs for a cell change.
Which got me curious how much is titan making via repairs? Sadly then dont publish this figure
But this niche category looks underserved

Inside a human brain when reading a book.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This video shows time-lapse of cultured neurons connecting via growth cones in a lab dish, not processes in a living human brain while reading. Similar real clips by Dr. Lila Landowski show developmental wiring; this one's exact source is unconfirmed.
