To all the coffee connoisseurs/addicts, any recommendations on what I could order in the next time? (Every month I keep seeing some new brand or the other)
There are so many miracles around us every single day. But we take most of them for granted and thus fail in appreciating the intelligence behind all the beautiful things! And so we need places like these to discover the forgotten wonders!

Over the past decade, very very few ARR albums (like Rockstar or OKK) have come closer to Delhi 6. Only he could have weaved this tribute to the charming Chandni Chowk. Be it via the signature Arziyaan or the out-of-the-box Genda Phool (1/n)
To be honest I was taken by surprise by the way

praised MGR to the skies. Clearly appealing to the MGR base. He is learning the game quickly.
Brace yourself for more messages like these "Bottom is unpredictable, recovery is certain. Best portfolios are built in the times of ruin. This is turning out to be a defining time for the current generation to create wealth through stock"

Still hooked on listening to Rehna Tu. The more u hear it, the more u will fall for it. Just when you feel like his voice is taking over the tunes (for a change), the lovely fusion at the end simply mocks the preceding guitar chords & makes u realize what a genius ARR is (2/n)

It's been a while since I left but a sense of joy and smile always springs up whenever I read or hear about PYT. And the name pops up (naturally) whenever there's some discussions regarding travel or startups. And no wonder referrals have been one of PYT's biggest strengths (1/2)
"Unfortunately, status of SMEs/MSMEs in corporate India is similar to what poor have in political India - both are used as alibi by govt and regulators to earn vote and sympathy, but nothing is done for them at ground level" - Brilliant thread on FX hedging costs!

We are glad to share that Revolut India has received an in-principle authorisation from RBI to issue PPI, prepaid cards & wallets, in India. This gives us the unique advantage to offer both international & domestic payment solutions on a single platform.
It's true that most people are unaware of other freedom fighters & their vital contributions. But the ethos (compassion) espoused & championed by Gandhiji are never overrated and they will remain relavant for the years to come as new forms of violence shoot up!

Amazon's poorly designed UI is unappealing, while core UPI users are unlikely to go for Cred. Privacy fears may stifle WhatsApp. There's Flipkart's new product (I'd like to bet) but Jio can turn out to be dark horse - closer to Paytm's demographics & the IPL's around too

Here's a start-up idea. Procure these stray dogs (not costly except for few labour and vans). Take them to a shelter, domesticate and sell them off to the ever-growing dog lovers in the country. The roads will become clean too!

Everyday we are just seeing how ESG is turning out to be such a scam - not the one we need to battle climate change. Aramco (an oil giant owned by autocrats) is everything but ESG-aligned.

The world's largest oil company is an unlikely beneficiary of funds earmarked for sustainable investments, thanks to a complex web of financial structures used to raise cash. Here's how a "loophole" allowed ESG funds to get involved with Aramco:

Time for ARR to rejuvenate and come up with such classic albums. Also feel Arjith's monotony has taken over Bollywood. We gotta hear more from the likes of KK, Benny Dayal, Rekha Bharadhwaj, Javed Ali, Ash King & Vijay Prakash!
Why not shift the capital out of Delhi to Gujarat or Bihar or some other state? Construct brand new Parliament / SC/ Ministries buildings there from scratch. Spare Delhi please.
Saavn, Jio, Gaana, Amazon Prime and now YouTube might also join the Indian wagon. But guess it's already too crowded here right?

Amazing nugget. It's also unbelievable how far Nvidia has gone even after the failed takeover of Arm - which would have given it such massive control and an amazing exit to Softbank too (some stake in Nvidia at that time ig)
Nvidia just became the most valuable publicly traded company, with a market capitalization of over $ 3.3 trillion.
When it was founded in 1993, none of the founders had a good idea for a name, so all the files discussing the project were labelled NV, next version.
When they had

Smaller stores format + affordable pricing + focus on online delivery - That's how Luckin took on Starbucks. Unfortunately, the Blue Tokais & Third Waves are losing the battle by trying to compete for social coffee experience - for which I believe market is not big enough (1/2)
Third Wave’s unit economics are concerning even when compared to its most like-for-like competitor, Blue Tokai. In FY23, it spent over Rs 200 crore to generate Rs 160 crore in revenue. The latter spent about Rs 160 crore to earn ~Rs 130 crore.

It was always gonna be tough to chase 11+/over at the last 10 overs against Archer & Co. Rather than Dhoni, I would blame Rohit was wasting so many balls! And he didn't have the skills of a MSD to finish off the game!
