Six Years of Demonetisation

Recently, Supreme Court... Continue Reading →
Steven Pinker Meets Richard Dawkins
Richard Dawkins is one of the few people I admire. I used to admire him much more a decade ago, but in last few years I have grown from being a fan boy to an admirer.

China developed a huge manufacturing monster that's producing things at 1/x cost of the other countries. Most of the multinationals have moved their manufacturing to China. In fact, Apple proudly mentions... Continue Reading →
