My card was skimmed in Bangkok. $2,000 gone. My bank said "investigation takes 90 days, don't expect much." Visa's global rules say I owe $0 from day one. The bank was using my money to fund their fraud investigation. One email. Reversed in 48 hours. Here is the sentence that ends the delay:

Enough of who built Taj Mahal, Lal Qila or Qutub Minar Now we want to know who destroyed Somnath, Nalanda & Ayodhya.

I ran across this video a few days ago and couldn’t stop watching it. It’s about something ordinary & boring, a plastic gas lighter. But it changes how one thinks about manufacturing. That lighter in so many of our homes, holds pressurised gas. It has over 30 microscopic parts, has to pass international safety codes, & travel 10,000 miles by sea, & the total cost of doing all that, materials, labour, freight, every middleman along the way, comes to fifteen U.S cents. So how does anyone make money on this? Turns out almost the entire world’s supply comes from one place: a county called Shaodong, in China’s Hunan province. It wasn’t always there. But today, Shaodong has 114 lighter-related companies packed into the place & between them they source more than 200 different components from each other, all within a 20-kilometre radius. They supply something like seventy percent of the world’s disposable lighters. And the industry alone employs over 80,000 people locally. Nobody there is winning on cheap labour anymore. They’re winning by shaving a thousandth of a cent off the thickness of a plastic wall, or redesigning a base so a few thousand more units fit into the same shipping container. It took my thoughts back to an old professor of mine, Michael Porter. His 1980 book, Competitive Strategy, is still the 1st book most MBAs read, the one that gave the world the Five Forces and basically invented modern strategic thinking. But there’s a quieter piece of his work, on industrial clusters, that never got nearly the same attention, and it is the one that explains exactly what is happening in Shaodong. His argument was that nations and regions rarely win because of cheap inputs. They win when rival firms and specialist suppliers crowd into the same small geography for long enough that they keep pushing each other past what any one of them could manage alone. He found it in the Swiss watchmaking towns of the Jura, in the German printing press industry and in Italy’s ceramic tile and footwear districts (interestingly, it’s the SAME blueprint which built Morbi, in Gujarat, into the world’s second-largest ceramic cluster, now outproducing Italy by volume. I have posted before, about Morbi) None of these started out as giants. The neighbourhood made them giants. Which is exactly why it’s so relevant to India’s climb up the global manufacturing table I’ve also attached a slide with this post that I saw recently and which shows us breaking into the top 5 manufacturing globally. (A quick reference check told me that we may not have overtaken Korea yet, but the trajectory’s clear) That climb has happened on the back of scale: bigger plants, bigger parks, more FDI. I should declare an interest here, because the Mahindra Group set up 2 of India’s first integrated, plug-and-play business cities, in Chennai in 2002 & Jaipur in 2006. Both have been extremely successful. Chennai’s business zone alone today employs 45,000 people.. But I admit that we need to think differently. A park brings in investors and hands them a ready plot, power, water & roads A cluster is a completely different animal: hundreds of small, specialised suppliers, each obsessed with doing a tiny thing better than anyone else, feeding off each other’s presence for years until no outsider can compete with the whole. I think that’s the work ahead of us now. Not just more factories, and not just more parks. Policymakers & developers like us need to start consciously pulling as many of the inputs and resources a sector needs, the toolmakers, the component suppliers, the testing labs, the logistics specialists, into the same neighbourhood. Shaodong and Morbi both got there by accident, one town stumbling onto a way to shave a thousandth of a cent off a lighter wall, the other discovering it had the clay and, later, the gas pipeline for tiles. We don’t have the luxury of waiting for accidents anymore. We need to do it on purpose

Sharing as received.. JRD Tata and Xerxes Desai I had the rare privilege of watching JRD Tata and Xerxes Desai speak with each other, way back in 1988. This was at an event organised by the Tata group, at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai. I was in awe of both of them.

Europeans and American patriots! Tomorrow, the courts of my country, France, may decide to send me to prison for daring to say on television that “the main danger to women in France is Black African and Arab immigrant men.” Meanwhile, my own attacker, a Tunisian migrant, is still at large. I need your help to generate media pressure and hope to be acquitted. They cannot silence the truth! Thank you for your support 💪🏻🇫🇷

The biggest machine slowing down your factory… …isn’t on the shop floor. It’s in your employees’ pockets. One reel. That’s all it takes. One reel becomes 15 minutes. 15 minutes becomes a missed cycle. A missed cycle becomes lower output. A distracted glance becomes an injury. The numbers are brutal: * 7% of factory output lost to personal phone use. * 23 minutes to regain focus after one interruption. * 1 in 4 factory accidents linked to phone distraction. * $650B lost every year in the US alone. The mistake most manufacturers make? They think they have a people problem. They don’t. They have an algorithm problem. Reels were built by some of the smartest engineers in the world to capture human attention. A factory cannot outcompete that. That’s why 26% of manufacturers have banned personal phones on production floors. Workers are not lazy. Attention is now a production asset. Protect it like one.

I received a random DM from a young fresher (@Chsnn1f) from maybe a Tier 3 engineering institution (Honestly, I do not know). No big institute/big connection, just pure hustle. He asked me to check his project idea WaveNet. While I am not a hard core techie, whatever I understood has me truly impressed. For me, this kid is a real cockroach ( in a good way). He saw a disaster chat app (DisasterNet) & immediately spotted its biggest flaw: it only works if everyone is on the same 30m WiFi hotspot. The best part is that he looked at the problem as a graph theory puzzle & turned people with phones into a network that moves & can carry a SOS message from a place with no internet to the nearest place with internet. What really surprised me: - Fixed location of the victim (not the relay phones) - Smart "Seen" list to stop infinite loops - The message stops when it reaches the 1st phone that has internet - Pure distributed BFS running on actual humans walking around He basically reinvented parts of Delay-Tolerant Networking on his own. Of course it has real challenges (battery drain, privacy, malicious nodes, Apple/Google restrictions) but the thinking is shockingly mature for his age & background. This is exactly the kind of talented cockroaches India needs. If you are into networking/mesh systems/disaster tech/just love spotting early talent... please check out his work. (Medium link in comment below). Drop your honest feedback for him. Let us show this cockroach some love & see how good he actually is. I know a few "Maha Talented" people will say this is nothing but for a "Low IQ" guy like me, this is a remarkable work & needs to be appreciated.

Slow is smooth, smooth is fast Rushing through something without discipline tends to produce mistakes that cost you more time than the rushing saved. Build good habits and correct fundamentals, even when they feel like they're slowing you down, and you'll actually go faster in

Her name is Ummul Kher. She was born with a condition called brittle bone disease. Through her childhood, her bones broke again and again. The smallest fall was enough to cause a fracture. By the time she reached adulthood, she had suffered sixteen fractures and undergone eight surgeries. Her family had moved to Delhi from Rajasthan when she was around five years old. Her father sold clothes as a street vendor near the Nizamuddin shrine, and the family lived in a nearby slum. Then the slum was demolished to make way for a flyover. The family decided to return to Rajasthan. Ummul, then around fourteen, refused to go. She wanted to continue her education. Her parents believed a disabled girl had studied enough and should not spend her life chasing books. They left. She stayed behind in Delhi alone. A fourteen-year-old girl with bones that broke at a touch, no family around her and almost no money decided she would educate herself anyway. She rented a tiny room and survived by tutoring children from nearby slums. She earned a little from the families who could afford to pay and continued studying with whatever resources she could find. She scored ninety-one percent in Class 12. She earned admission to Gargi College at Delhi University. From there, she went on to complete a master’s degree, an M.Phil and a Ph.D at Jawaharlal Nehru University. Along the way, she was awarded a national research fellowship. In 2016, she appeared for the Civil Services Examination, one of the most competitive examinations in the country. She cleared it on her first attempt. She became an officer of the Indian Administrative Service. Her parents left her behind at fourteen because they believed a girl with broken bones had no future worth investing in. She built one of the hardest futures this country has to offer, entirely on her own. Follow for stories India deserves to remember.

A Christian missionary was sent to Assam, named Father Cruz. He got an opportunity to come home and teach English to a boy from an influential family of Assam. The pastor slowly began to inspect the house. They found out that the child's grandmother is the most influential person in this house. Therefore, if they are trapped in the trap of Jesus' teachings, then through them the whole family and then the whole village can be made Christian… The pastor began to tell Grandma how Jesus cured the leprosy, How he used to give eyesight to the blinded, And so on... Grandma said, "Son, all this is nothing compared to the miracles of our "#राम_कृष्ण"! You have heard that our Rama touched a stone and she turned into a living woman. Due to the influence of Lord Ram's name, even stones used to float in the water, they are still floating today, The priest would have been silent. But continue their nefarious efforts. One day the pastor brought #केक from the #चर्च and gave it to the grandmother to eat. The pastor believed that Grandma would not eat, but contrary to her expectations, Grandma I took the cake and ate it. The pastor laughed with pride in his eyes, Mother! You ate the #प्रसाद of the church, now you are #ईसाई*. Grandma pulled the priest's ears and said, "Wow, you ungodly one! One day I was fed a cake and I became a Christian. And I feed you from my house every day, so how come you are not a Hindu, you salt haram? Every day, you take the air and water of this primordial land of Sanatan Dharma and then every fiber of your being should become a Hindu. Protecting our home religion and nation from going astray and going in the wrong direction This grandmother was the famous revolutionary of Assam, Kamaladevi Hazarika, who knows her outside Assam? It is our duty that the whole country Learn about them...
