A girl doing show and tell in Easter theme. I have been meaning to write this post for a while. The more it delayed, the more I got time to ponder over it and understand more nuances. I'm now trying to write it down without waiting till eternity. Show and Tell is a powerful tool... Continue Reading →
M.A.M.A. and Nothing University ads by Cadbury 5 Star are amazing! https://youtu.be/73rkqkTY6dA?si=VF3WOiE2i_EHVBSH https://youtu.be/0lhmKOR8Www?si=myZiiKP6J0UfBnWj We should be a short-term pessimist (cautious) and long-term optimist. However, people tend to do exactly the opposite. The hype about AI is so much that it's going to disappoint in near future. Once the euphoria is over and sanity is restored,... Continue Reading →
Humans are innately lazy. A recent study established that too. Our brain is not optimised. There is enough empirical evidence to support this observation. You must have read about Parkinson's Law which states that “work expands to fill the time available for its completion. Here is an example I thought of to demonstrate the same using...

Today (28th November) is the first death anniversary of the man who I consider as my idol — Charlie Munger. I discovered him pretty late, when I was 30, but immediately grasped his greatness and have been following him ever since in last 14 years. His book "Poor Charlie's Almanack" is one of my most...

श्रीधर फडके चे "तू माझ्या आयुष्याची पहाट" ऐकताना आणि जुन्या इमेल वाचताना ही पोस्ट करावीशी वाटली. गहिवरून येणे, रडावेसे वाटणे, हळवे होणे या गोष्टी सध्या अचानकच घडतात. प्रत्यक्ष रडणे हे कृती म्हणून वेगळे आणि भावनांचा कडेलोट म्हणून तसे वाटणे हे वेगळे. हल्ली मधेच अपरात्री, पहाटे जाग येते. मग बाबांच्या आठवणी... मग कोणाशी तरी बोलावंसं वाटतं......

गेल्या काही वर्षात मी दोन विषयांचा जास्त सखोल अभ्यास केला आहे, किंवा त्या विषयांची आवड निर्माण झाली आहे - एक फायनान्स/अर्थशास्त्र आणि दुसरा तत्वज्ञान. तत्वज्ञान या विषयाची आवड मला अगदी लहानपणापासून आहे. आणि त्याबद्दल बऱ्यापैकी वाचन केले आहे...सुरुवातीची काही वर्षे मराठीत आणि नंतर इंग्रजीत. त्यातून एक जाणवलेली गोष्ट म्हणजे तत्वज्ञान आणि दुःख याचे खूप जवळचे...

एकदा मला माझ्या मित्राने विचारलेः "तुला तुझा sense of humour कोणाकडून मिळाला?" मी म्हणालोः "बहुतेक आईकडून मिळाला असणार...कारण बाबांचा sense of humour त्यांच्याकडेच आहे" आता विनोद म्हणूनही मी असं म्हणू शकणार नाही...😌😔
Today I found a treasure trove! I found my notebooks from Standard 11th, 12th and a couple of years of Engineering, few files from Engineering submissions, and my Answer papers from standard 9 and 10! Also found a couple of text books from standard 3rd (!) and standard 7th! Those things, for me, are less... Continue Reading →
“When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love …” ― Marcus Aurelius I have posted this as a Thought of The Day earlier...maybe multiple times. I liked the thought a lot. But you have to go through certain experiences to full... Continue Reading →
