This is big: all access to Mythos and Fable AI models disabled for everyone outside America. First thoughts: 1. Technology is the ultimate weapon. National sovereignty, national security, all of it is now about technology. 2. Globalization is dead and Bharat must find her own way ahead. We must keep these two ideas in mind. What can our government do right now? Ensure that orgs in India embrace smaller models, both Indian and Chinese open source ones. With a bit of effort, we can make them work. Anyway, why pay money to people who don't even want to sell to you? We must deepen our R&D. Sarvam has been on it and we have been on it but remember that the latest models cost not only huge GPU budgets to train, the GPUs themselves are restricted. So we can't afford the scale of money (of the order of $100 billion to even get in the game!) and even if we could come up with the money, we can't get all the GPUs. I would not like to ask the government to fund tens of billions of dollars on this anyway - the money has far better uses. Zoho has been pursuing alternative R&D approaches that are far, far less expensive but by its nature cutting edge R&D takes time and we are patient. I am confident we will get there. Any remaining people in India who have delusions about globalization should wake up now.

Your #1 motivation at work should be money. Remember, you live in a capitalist society, and if you don't have money, then you cannot even die peacefully. So earn respectfully.

be a perpetual student.

Anthropic needs developers. They couldn’t vibe code Bun. Jokes aside, acquisition means a big day. Congratulations to whole team.

It is high time for people from Tier - 2, Tier - 3 cities, keep connected to your native home, build a new house or fix the old. This will be a real luxury given the problems in the metro cities of the India. Things have changed and you can have everything back home.

nationalism need not be your GTM strategy. - build something people want - build something people love - build something people would pay for nationalism has always been a slippery slope.

If you are a Framer expert, checkout framerkit. We, (me and Siddharth) added 100s of components to easily remix into your projects, style it according to your project's theme and built webapps faster. Also all of the components (~300 components) currently on Framer kit are completely free and pro version is in the works and will launch soon. If you are excited about, comment below and let me know. That will give me a big boost, help me cope with imposter syndrome (still a lot to learn in Framer world) and will do my best to launch it faster and share it with everyone here.

Unpopular opinion: Most startups don't need Kubernetes until they have 100 engineers. What you actually need: - Render, Fly.io, or Railway - Managed database - Simple CI/CD - Total setup time: 2 hours What you're doing instead: - 3 months learning K8s - $15K/month in infrastructure - 2 engineers just managing clusters - Features delayed But K8s looks good on your resume.

How successful people build connections and grow networks.

“To be successful at anything, you don’t have to be special. You just have to be what most people aren’t: consistent, determined and willing to work for it. No shortcuts.” — Tom Brady

“React Fir” might make our React code even faster 👀👀

A wise man knows that with all the money in the world, he cannot get a single second of extra time. Use the time wisely, you have only a limited amount of it.

As a software engineer, it's very important to learn about Gall’s Law, which states that complex systems cannot be created successfully from scratch. In reality, even large systems, such as Netflix, Google, or Facebook, have started small and built incrementally over the course of decades.

Track everything. Your time, your thoughts, your habits, your sleep, your words. What you don’t measure, you don’t master. Progress isn’t accidental, it’s audited. Treat your life like a high-performance machine, and you'll stop living like everyone else.

People won't take your words seriously unless you've achieved something in your life.

Anyone can grind for a day. Anyone can be motivated for a week. But staying consistent for years? That’s what separates legends from the average.
