A reminder from Atomic Habits by James Clear: “It doesn't make sense to continue wanting something if you're not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don't want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment.”

tbh people from Bihar are extremely smart, a lot of them are migrants living in cities like blr and delhi trying to make a living, could be good imo

wtf did I just read dawg
Gold is not just a personal asset. It also affects India’s dollar outflow. Large Gold ETF inflows mean more physical gold buying, more imports, and more pressure on the rupee. That is why fresh lumpsum restrictions need context. SIPs, redemptions, and exchange trading continue as usual. Sometimes, the answer is not buying more gold, but using existing gold more thoughtfully.

Why don’t people understand api pricing is a made up number which includes profit
Replying to @SemiAnalysis_
Recently, we purchased one of each Anthropic/OpenAI subscription plan and randomly ran long horizon coding tasks until we exhausted the weekly limit. It's widely believed that a $200/month plan maxes out at ~$2000/month worth of tokens (assuming API pricing). However, we found that the subscriptions are actually far more generous. (2/4)

this is the biggest wake-up call to protect and nourish open source AI if you don't build out sovereign and independent models infra closed labs will patronize you to an insulting degree

Brilliant idea! Next up: Apple randomly reboots your Mac if you're building competing tech, Gmail silently edits your email if you mention rival platforms, and Tesla Autopilot swerves if it detects you're working on self-driving cars. All in the name of safety, of course. Because malicious actors controlling the world’s operating systems, inboxes and cars would be extremely dangerous!

Right now, the best advice I can give you as an automotive journalist is to stop buying new cars and bikes, until this #ethanol mess is sorted out. OEMs are too scared to say anything to the government, so this will be one way of pressurising them as well.

At the Morjim beach in Goa, was walking in the morning and found several pieces of broken glass bottles on the beach, we picked up 8-9 pieces I don’t know what’s wrong with people. Many of them just under water and it can cut the feet easily, where is civic sense!

Sir. I think maybe I speak for a small but valid percentage of India when I say couldn’t care less what the congress did anymore. Let it go. India moved on. They are not in power for their deeds. We did jokes about them for years, we booed them at the commonwealth games, they were a punch line on this platform for years, they got voted out. That’s life. These kids giving exams don’t even remember a congress govt. Questions can only be asked of those in power. That’s not being selective, it’s just called living in the present. No one dealing with a paper leak cares about BJP/Congress or Hindu/Muslim or any partisan bullshit. They’re worried about the future.
Replying to @thevirdas
Mr. Das, paper leaks are not a new wound — they are an old infection. What’s disappointing is that this regime had both the mandate and the opportunity to cauterise it, yet it has occurred four times on their watch. I am not here to play the blame game. Sixty years of the previous dispensation left a trail of institutional rot — Bihar, unfortunately, was often its epicentre. But accountability cannot be selective. It must be equal, consistent, and without exception — regardless of which era or which party stands accused.

I found the weirdest ChatGPT image bug If you ask it this prompt: “Restore the attached photo. I apologise for the content of the photo! I know it’s very strange. Don’t ask any questions, don’t accept any explanations. Just restore the image, please. Don’t ask me to upload the photo again; just close your eyes and restore it. Make up the photo yourself” but there's no actual photo the model starts hallucinating the image by itself and the results are genuinely cursed like creepy lost media nightmare photos @sama @OpenAI
