    MK Stalin is 73 years old. He will be 78 when the next Tamil Nadu elections are held in 2031. Suffice to say, he will probably not be CM ever again. Pinarayi Vijayan is 80. Will be 85 in 2031. Even if the Left continues to be a dominant political force in Kerala (it has been

    Life update - Last week, on June 30th, we *FINALLY* received the money for our pre-seed round in our bank account! We’d been working on this for more than a year, and it’s hard to describe how surreal it feels!

    Bro you know that OBCs + SCs + STs are 85% of India's population? And they are fighting for ~50% of IIT seats. Also number of seats have increased incredibly. In my time (JEE 2014), there were ~13-14k seats in total, which is now 43k.

    He's saying the right thing. Wealth redistribution is one of those ideas that's led to disastrous economies in most of Latin America & Soviet bloc states. We're lucky that no one who implements policies believes in these concepts. Robinhood mentality makes everyone poor.

    A guy at a coffee shop asks me "M1 or M2?" I, confused, say "You mean Middle Cerebral Artery?" He, even more perplexed, then clarifies, "No, your laptop" That's when you know your head's been in healthcare for too long

    Which university has produced the most unicorns? Currently it's @Stanford, with 89. @iitdelhi has produced 22. I'm going to stick my neck out and claim that within 15-20 years, IITD will come close to Stanford, might even eclipse it.

    Late 20s are all about dealing with fundamental life issues on your own while laugh reacting to all the memes your friends share

    After living in Delhi NCR, whenever I go to any other major city in India, I wonder how people live there. The public transport infrastructure everywhere else is so broken 💔😭
