Wouldn’t that be ideal? Working for your goals along with working for your needs. Problem is jobs tend to take away a lot of energy from us and that is by design.

Yeah, that feeling accomplishing something is really important. Been working for a product company since June 2024 when I finished a project I actually felt like I made something tangible, unlike in most companies I worked in, where accomplishments are really hazy and undefined. Today you are working on one thing and tomorrow on another thing.

I have never had a job that improved my mental health, not once. And I am actually very privileged in general. Jobs have been net negative for my health, even with regular therapy.

Full Metal Alchemist. All the twists, heartbreak, even the victories against an unimaginably powerful foe, but most of all, the many, many humane moments that makes it one of the greatest stories I ever read. I really want to experience it for the first time again.

Why? I get paid the same. I have no incentive to work harder or longer. Why don’t you work harder or longer for a change? Practice what you preach.

I would move to Scandinavia, maybe Denmark or Netherlands.

This kind of post just shows why I think politicians are spineless cowards. If winning is everything to anyone, they should stick to investing in a stock market.

When I was working on my PhD. I stopped accessing papers from the publishers’ website. Each download incurs cost to the university. Instead I used sci-hub practically all the time. These publishers are the leeches.

These publishers are like bridge trolls. They didn’t contribute anything to publishing papers or pay the authors or editors of the papers. Yet they expect people to pay toll to access the papers.

I find celeb ads pretty disgusting. Watched ads for gambling apps? They almost always feature a celeb. All I can say is, we have to know that celebs will do whatever for more money. They don’t care about their audience. The onus is on us to not get influenced by them.

Imagine simping for a billion-dollar corporation. I mean, I love Sony games, Uncharted, Horizon, Spider-Man, but I am not going to defend them. Their lives must be really awesome, if they stoop to simping to a corporation.

Personally, I am rooting for the stage to win the match. Fuck this PR stunt.

Like a Rollin’ Stone. Blowin’ in the Wind.

This is more like “Can my 651 friends snoop on our party?”

I love Physics, but mostly Classical Mechanics, especially Continuum Mechanics. I am also a sucker for Information Theory and Theory of Computation.

I had high 700s, where even 1 is more than I can stomach. Thank devs for uBlock Origin.

IPhone sucks ass. I am saying this as a user. I strongly recommend not using it. I unfortunately took my dad’s iphone after my phone died unexpectedly, so for now I am stuck with it. But user experience is so bad.

A Suitable Boy is such an amazing novel. It captures India and it’s complexities really well.
