No, that isn’t a typo. A few people say that I crack dad jokes. And so, today’s title humors them. There are multiple versions of the “Yuga” theory in Sanātana Dharma. Some calculations go into trillions of years, others a more respectable thousands. So there is an ongoing debate now if this is Kaliyuga, or …

I have been following the Foodpharmer for quite a while now. In fact, ever since he started his campaign against Bournvita in 2023. He does sound a bit sensationalist at times, but he does take up very important topics. Stuff that we don’t think about but affect our health in ways we understand, but do …
Ah, the Indian Republic Day! The tribute at the Amar Jawan Jyoti, the parades, the tableaus, the march past…the show of strength… I remember when we were kids…switching on the television early morning, watching India at its finest, on Doordarshan (the only channel available). The commentary was a damper (very boring, and it hasn’t got …
The café appears only once a decade, perched on a cliff where the ocean forgets its own name. Its sign, written in seafoam script, reads: La Douleur Exquise—Open Until Forgotten. Elara found it on the anniversary of her mother’s death, though she hadn’t meant to. She’d been chasing her dog, Mochi, through the fog when the …
I wrote about learning yesterday, and amazing things started to happen already! Early in the morning, I used AI to make an automated spreadsheet that tracks attendance easily – took me 3 minutes from start to finish, deployed immediately. As staff started to come in (virtually), threw the idea of forming a Coder Team with …
2025 is turning out to be a marquee year in more ways than one. The insane pace of AI, our own plans of expansion and deployment of a variety of tools, new services, new people, opportunities for learning, the tools available to accelerate, no, turbocharge your leaning process…the list is endless. And January has not …
Fall down seven and get up eight, that my friend, is the way to be. For life throws more than just a punch or two and maybe one more than you can dodge, It may hit you square in the jaw, and before you know it, you are floored. Lying there, rubbing your chin, head …
Status-quo bias – The tendency for people to stay committed to current situations, for fear of changing to the unknown. Status quo bias is also caused by laziness, aversion to complexity, unnatural learning style demands, reading small print, etc. I have been reading this book – Nudge – by Richard H Thaler and Cass R Sunstein. The crux of the …
Epishura. Now, chances are that you have not heard of this. Nor had I. Epishura inhabits Lake Baikal, the largest source of freshwater in the world. It contains 23% of the worlds’s freshwater, and is renowned for it’s pure H2O. But how does the lake remain so clean? The answer lies in a zooplankton species …
