So true. I've shifted to a village already and possibly living this life :P
AI is going to take white-collar jobs. A trade war is going to take manufacturing jobs.
I guess it’s going back to the ancestral village and picking up a lauki for goods and services system of barter now.

Time for World to divest off this America. Economically sanctioning America and American companies would help the bully understand they can't bully forever.

Trump is a bully, and the World would need to isolate this bully. Giving the bully what they want, doesn't stop bullying. It only increases it.

India's reciprocal tariffs to Trump's reciprocal tariffs should begin by banning Meta products, Uber, Amazon, Flipkart, etc. Such companies can easily be replaced by home grown companies and carry significant power.

This is Oligarchy. The three richest men in the world have become $196 BILLION richer since Donald Trump was elected.
$196 billion for three men in 99 days.
Meanwhile, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

The ‘Gulf of America’ is just the latest example of tech companies aiding and abetting authoritarianism while pretending to be neutral.

In 2023, during his visit to India, Altman was asked if a small, smart team with $10M could build something big in AI.
His response: "It’s totally hopeless to compete with us on training foundation models."

I just wish I could stop using Whatsapp like I stopped using twitter (and deleted the account). Too much dependence on WA right now. FB is as evil, as evil can be.
This company is deeply evil, and on top of that this move is going to be what finally makes Facebook collapse into itself
Meta to get rid of factcheckers and recommend more political content

“If Bluesky can market itself as a sort of last bastion against ad bots, AI crap, and algorithms, it’ll be in a very strong position. It’s likely only a matter of time before one of higher-up tech gurus decides to break the dam so all that sewage can flow in.”

Indian youth is going bonkers with super-fast deliveries. We are not only hurting our delivery workers, but our own health and habits. This is a big trap, and sooner we come out of it, the better.

NavGurukul has been lucky to work with these young women from Bihar. They’re breaking barriers, learning to code, and dreaming of brighter futures. Their stories reflect the heart of what we do at NavGurukul: creating access to opportunities where none existed before.

Young Bihari women are India's brave new coders. Bengaluru is their dream
As the women work on their coding tasks at the residential school, the trainer plays music from her phone to keep the atmosphere lively. Only English pop—to help them learn the language.

There has been discussion about celebrating the death of United Healthcare CEO. While I have mixed feelings, some individuals cause such harm that their deaths feel like a celebration, similar to reactions to Hitler's death or Assad's rumored demise. Not all deaths evoke sadness; some unite people.

Unfortunately, it's true. The staggering number of firearms in the USA & ease of obtaining them are alarming. Such incidents can strike anywhere—schools or even billionaires. The former rarely shakes lobbying groups as much as the latter. Hopefully, sense prevails, leading to meaningful regulations.
This is just the beginning folks. Once this damn breaks it's going to be a feeding frenzy on billionaires. Pro Tip: You don't build guillotines in a country with more guns than people. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

When I visited US/Canada, and came back to India, it was striking to see how little we see of disabled people around us. They aren't on roads, they aren't in offices, they are practically hidden from the normal discourse. There's a long long way for India to even start properly on this path.
