last month i decided to step away from @noicedotso and hit pause on my founder journey noice is roughly a year old but the team has been grinding together since early 2024. back then i was just happy to be working day in and day out with people i liked - i had no idea what it would turn into launching noice was the magnum opus of my professional life so far. 'noice summer' as we termed it is a time of my life that i'll never forget and it truly changed my belief in what a small team can achieve in a very small period of time we shipped something real, got backed by people we deeply respect, and went through the kind of lows and highs that permanently change how you see yourself. i'm so grateful for every bit of it but somewhere in the middle of all that, i started feeling like a new chapter was calling. not away from the work, away from the version of me that was doing it next few months i'm focused on reflecting and working on myself. sitting with the discomfort of not knowing what's next until that becomes okay meanwhile srijan, heet and the rest of the team are gonna continue steering the wheel at noice

i find it funny how despite losing out on all economic parameters, europe is still the best place to live for most people

all my life china was the censoring state and US promised access to all weird seeing the shift where people are hoping china ensures equal access while US is doing the opposite

vision with castmoney was to be the gateway to trenches. trenching is a fun game you get better at, and can be an income source too but it's a minefield for new folks. everyone gets scamed. a handful of times at least. what'd trenching look like if it was purely skill based?

A zero sum way to look at degen culture is these mfers are dumb so let’s extract as much as we can from them asap. Thats how many founders and VCs been doing it. They put up a fake front but that’s how they really feel. A positive sum way to look at it is these people are learning and leveling up so let’s help them win asap.

The entire Base account has been all about agents / payments for about 3 weeks now. One meme gets posted and everyone loses their shit. You can’t kill memes, you never will, they have been around for multiple cycles. Stop throwing your toys out of the pram. Yours personally, a utility coin dev.

Never seen so much pessimism regarding India in my twenty years of studying macro and markets. Not in 2008, 2013, 2020. AI is a positive for India. There is absolutely no sign of Indian service exports slowing down in the latest data. If a $20k guy in Pune is to be laid off, a $200k guy in Philly is even more on the chopping block. If anything giving them both the latest AI reduces any competence gap. Regarding AI supply side, Sarvam etc just received more investment and we are continuing to work on the semiconductor side. Second/third mover advantage on the cheap is not a small thing here. Actually, AI has in part negated the platform winner-takes-all economics of US Big Tech by making it capex-intensive. Of course national security considerations remain. The rupee is extremely oversold. The gold/silver import restriction moderate measures have just kicked in. Ex-gold we have been in significant trade and current account surplus for many years. US 10y is now 4.6%. Gas and mortgage rates are off the chart there. Rising long-end of the yield curve and rapidly rising AI capex theme both cannot go on together for much longer. We have to be patient: my view remains India is by far the world's greatest investment opportunity amongst the major themes available today. Of course as part of a diversified asset allocation so that we can live another day to be wrong if needed :)
