you must believe you are special and then go so hard, for so long, with such violent refusal to accept any other ending, that reality itself starts running out of ways to tell you no. you must wage a war daily against the ordinary outcome, until the belief you invented out of nothing in a room by yourself has been hammered into the world so many times that it stops being a claim and becomes reality.

Every paycheck you get is evidence that someone else figured out how to monetize your skills better than you did.

Sometimes when I'm on a call I wanna explain stuff using diagrams. Its too much of a pain to pull up excalidraw and share screen.
So, I'm making this browser plugin for myself.
Draw, Edit, Move, Scale objects on screen while you talk.

JUST IN: Sam Altman says AI probably won’t trigger the “jobs apocalypse” he once predicted.
Proto-Elamite?
The Pashupati seal has an elephant, a water buffalo and a rhinoceros. Ancient Elam was centred in southwestern Iran. Elephants, water buffalos and rhinoceroses are not native to ancient Elam. BTW, they are native to India. Also, the figure is seated in a Yogic posture. Is Yoga also Elamite now? Seriously?
Your profile says you are a professor. I don't mean to sound rude, but your students deserve a refund. And seriously, Western universities need to improve their hiring practices.

Seven companies that have pulled back on AI recently:
@Uber → burned its entire 2026 AI coding budget in four months
@Microsoft → canceled most of its internal Claude Code licenses when the token bill blew up
@github → moving Copilot off flat-rate to per-token billing
@cursor_ai → scrapped its "unlimited" plan after usage bills spiked
@Klarna → rehiring humans after its AI support quality dropped
@CommonwealthBank → rehired 45 staff, called the AI cuts an "error"
@duolingo → pulled AI back out of employee performance reviews
Every one launched chasing the same thing: PRODUCTIVITY. But productivity is subjective and hard to pin down, so companies measured what was easy to see instead. USAGE.
Microsoft, Meta and Shopify started scoring people on AI use in reviews. Amazon ran an internal token leaderboard. Nvidia's CEO said he'd be "deeply alarmed" if a $500k engineer wasn't burning $250k in tokens a year.
So people gamed it, running AI on everything to pump their numbers. Tokenmaxxing.
Except usage was never output. Jellyfish data has the cost per merged pull request rising from $0.28 with light AI use to $89.32 with heavy use. More tokens, not more shipped. Just a bigger bill.
And the bill was the one number that always came in clean. On time, to the cent, every month.
That's the streetlight effect. We count what's lit and treat it as the thing we actually care about.
But people don't keep spending $2,000 a month on something that isn't working. The value was real. It just doesn't land where the cost does. You feel it while you're using the tool. The bill lands on the company's books. So the company makes the call.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Yesterday was a long day.
I was called for questioning in connection with a case that I believed had no merit, and I attended the questioning to present my version. However, the police arrested me at 5.30 PM.
I was granted bail at 10 PM, and the Hon’ble Duty Judge clearly stated that he saw no offence in the case. He also said that he saw no mens rea and failed to understand why I had even been arrested.
Grateful to @RaviSharmaTalks and @sidcool2302, the wonderful lawyers who helped me through this.
Thankful to the many people, both online and offline, who supported me. I’m truly grateful. Of course, there are many who dislike you and use such opportunities to strike harder when you are down, but that’s fair game. It was your day, and you took it. I can take those blows and come back.
At times like these, one realises the importance of ideological support. The people who stood by me at the most crucial juncture were neither close friends nor relatives, but those with whom I am bound by ideology. And it delivered for me when it mattered most.
This incident has added many new layers of perspective, most importantly the ones we usually miss in the melee of day-to-day social media discourse.
I’ll write about the specifics of this case another day. For now, I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who has been a well-wisher. I’m grateful.
Thank you for monitoring the situation.

A tribute to the courageous BJP Karyakartas!
Even in the midst of celebrations at the Brigade Parade Ground in Kolkata today on the formation of the first ever BJP Government in West Bengal, we remembered all those BJP Karyakartas who laid down their lives in the service of an ideal greater than themselves.
Their sacrifice is etched forever in the journey of the Party. Their courage will remain a source of strength for all of us.
