Parth: There is so much anger and protest. Everyone wants me to pick a side.
Krishna: Don’t pick a side. Always pick your dharma.
Parth: And what is my dharma?
Krishna: To build.

I am pro globalization, pro tech, and pro capitalism. Most in my circle hold similar views. Most are nationalistic and have no disdain for this country, and all of them criticize the current regime for its failures.
The debate around extremism is too nuanced to discuss here. I have already been called “cow piss drinker” in this same tweet thread, so that I will refrain. Because all those who say they tolerate opposing views in reality don't like opposing views. The left has a history of that.
India has always been a melting pot of identities. This is the only country where jews were never persecuted. Parsis made India their home for this very reason. Secularism is the DNA of this country, largely because of its civilizational values. And it will remain so for centuries, despite its painful history.
EC made it abundantly clear that decisions were unanimous. The matter is already subjudious, even though the EC is an independent body.
On the contentions themselves, you can't cherry-pick. The opposition can't say the EC was honest when it won certain state elections and disingenuous when it didn't. This is even more dangerous for democracy.

This could be a defining opportunity for @narendramodi. He has the opportunity to pursue a purpose larger than electoral victories, party politics, or even the record for the longest-serving Prime Minister.
He could announce a larger-than-life national mission of BUILDING INDIA.
Bring together 10–15 of the best leaders from across political parties. Give space to ministers based on their ability to deliver. Bring together some of the country’s best business leaders, academicians, scientists, engineers, economists and administrators.
Set out a clear 3–5 year national rebuilding plan. Infrastructure. Manufacturing. Education. Research. Energy. Defence. Cities. Governance. Employment. Technology.
.@Sonderling47: "I am hereby suspending from the Permanent Labor Certification Program some of the largest IT outsourcing firms in the world — Cognizant, Infosys, Tata, Wipro, HCL, and Capgemini — and also, due to multiple active federal investigations, @USDOL is suspending Microsoft and Adobe from the program."

Introducing Celea v0.
At 15, I snuck into @Pixar HQ.
From 18 to 23, I submitted 235 applications only to fail every single time.
Then during my final year at @USCCinema, AI videos started changing the world.
I asked:
Why isn't Hollywood using AI to make movies?
The problem:
Everyone was making better "prompt-and-pray" slot machines, and not Hollywood-grade legos.
That's why we've created celea.ai, the self-iterating AI with visual nodes for Hollywood.
Celea saves significant amount of time and production costs for real-life use cases such as pre-visualization, background VFX assets, and B-roll/reshoots.
Today, we're opening up our private beta along with our enterprise customers.
Message us on LinkedIn and comment below for Celea access!

b. where should one invest
What worries him is rising US debt & associated problems
His answer to where should one invest? - India 🇮🇳

A good question I’ve learnt to ask is “how will you survive the next Google/OpenAI announcement day?”
Good answers generally sound like -
1. “We benefit from advancements in foundational tech instead of being wiped out, because we treat it as raw input. Our moat is defined by deep insight > niche domain > proprietary data > network effects > FMF (in that order).”
2. “We are not playing their game, we are challenging them on their fundamental beliefs. Google/OAI believes X or is building for Y, we’re doing Z.”
Final acknowledgement: Eventually they will catch up and there is no real moat other than speedy innovation + shipping.

Terrified to do this but we're opening the waitlist for Endgame, an AI interface built around a simple belief:
AI should adapt to the way humans think - not the other way around.
PS: It’s got Version Control for Context + more

Look at your wrist, see the blueish veins? The blood flowing through them contains hemoglobin, a protein that has four iron atoms incorporated into its structure. Iron is only naturally produced in one place, it can only be forged in the core of dying stars.
Every time you look at your veins, remember that you are built from, and kept alive by, pieces of stardust.

Make Indian cities walkable - please 🙏🏽
Let the change start from municipal corporations, police, and local authorities
There is a skywalk right next to my studio that took 18 months to complete - yet not open to public because the "ribbon cutting" hasn't happened yet
We deserve walkable footpaths, pedestrian crossings, and signals that goddamn work

What have Indian Muslims got to do with that terrorist #HassanNasarullah ? We can stand with the innocent citizens of Palestine and Lebanon without glorifying these terrorists or their terror organizations . He (#Nasrullah ) the organization #Hezbollah, the organization Hamas are all terrorist organizations that have been responsible for the deaths of countless Hunan beings. Indian Politicians need to understand that Indian Muslims do not give a damn about these terrorists.
