In 2026 Bumble is worth less than the product that allows you to put multiple links on a webpage (Linktree) 🤷♀️
Dating-app company Bumble is being taken private by newly formed firm Ithaca Holdings for $1.3 billion bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Dopamine from information gathering is a dangerous drug. Get your dopamine from action.
I often switch between English to Hinglish to pure Hindi when typing messages.. But no Voice to text app so far has been able to handle the switches well.. I've tried multiples
Super excited about Kivi from @SarvamAI
Djokovic this Beijing open reminds of his former self - untouchable at ATP events
Medvedev legit went MAD because he himself was on a dream run this far in the tournament.
No excuses for hitting a fan though 🙈
Guess good content just travels. Our 4th ever podcast crossed 100K views on YT + another 100K across other platforms
We were aiming for these numbers for our 25th pod 😆
Kudos to the real stars: Sunny who’s not on Twitter and epic host @elonmasttttt
Really unfortunate that the Indian railways are hiring expensive software engineering leads from Meta such as @championswimmer but not focusing on basic matters such as restroom cleanliness.. anyway congrats Arnav!
Whenever I tell someone @championswimmer joined @Railway, their first reaction is: “Wait, what?”
Then comes the follow-up: “Indian or British?”
I happened to be sitting at a popular restaurant opposite a Swish kitchen. In the ~60 minutes I was there the restaurant had 3 occupied tables and 3-4 delivery orders
But Swish kitchen had atleast 2 deliveries go out every minute. Easy 100+ orders that hour. They’re doing great
Swish's best kitchens push out 1,200 orders a day. A regular cloud kitchen manages 100-150.
That density is what investors are paying for. Swish has filed to raise Rs 224.54 crore in an extended Series B led by Bertelsmann India, valuing it at Rs 1,653 crore post-money - up over 30% from March.
From our deep dive on the economics: owning procurement, kitchens and delivery keeps food gross margins at 60-70%.
Swish says they turn profitable at an order value of Rs 220-225.
The hard part is next.
Fifty-five kitchens today, at least 250 planned in Bengaluru alone. Whether the economics hold beyond its densest micro-markets is the real test - Zepto Cafe shut nearly 200 kitchens late last year, and Swiggy closed Snacc within a year.
