Never thought I’ll see a tier-1 educational institute advertise like a Greater Noida college.

There is an American tech YouTuber called Jerry Rigs Everything. Most of his videos are about him taking apart devices, understanding how they work etc. He has 10.2 million subscribers In 2005 his wife had a horse riding accident as a result of which she was paralyzed waist down. She now required a wheel chair to move about All high quality outdoor wheelchairs that he tested costed upwards of $20,000 Considering he was a tech Youtuber with some fame he could have simply called one company to get one for free. He didn't do that Like he does on his channel, he took apart a wheelchair, understood its components and then built one on his own He then decided to sell them in public for $999. He called it the Paradox Thanks to him, most of us can have access to high mobility, all terrain wheelchairs. This is what tech Youtubers abroad do. They actually make a difference Meanwhile Our guys haven't yet gone past, "Arre Bhai, Yeh dekho Apple ka agla amazing phone, Isme aapko milta hai 3 camera aur ek screen. See how I am drooling on this packaging and colour" with some pathetically click baity thumbnails

Sorry but Indians need to learn how to use Voicemail. I grew up watching people leave voicemails in American shows. such a cool feature. iPhones in india got it 2 years ago. It even transcribes live. tell me why you’re calling. If I feel it's imp i’ll call back. A simple - Hi on WhatsApp isn’t context.

Why the heck is a desk organizer costing 5,000 from Daily Objects? What is so technical about it? Does it have wireless charging? 😞😞

People respect you more when they don't see you often. Even parents. Trust me.

Kill the nice guy inside you, bro. Minimize your kindness. This generation has no memory. Become ruthless or get crushed.

I regret to inform you that a lot of problems in life are solved by waking up early and working out.

I think Chandra Babu Naidu came closest to this. Fought for investments. Got so many things for his state Other CMs only compete for polarization and laadli behen/bitiya disbursements
🚨 Nikhil Kamath suggests Chief Ministers should run states like CEOs, Compete for investment, He points to China, where local governments chase business like companies.

Whole of Gurgaon needs to be handed over to DLF. Disband all municipal bodies, create a private body managed and lead fully by DLF with other Developers and RWAs as other stakeholders. No bureaucrat or Haryana govt should be allowed any participation.
One of the best things DLF has done for Gurgaon is build Golf Course Road. A 16-lane, signal-free road. Now imagine if the rest of Gurgaon had roads like this.

Goofy women >>>> All they want is love, reassurance, food and cuddles. They get excited over little things, want to do everything with you, and know how to cheer you up when you’re down. May God continue to bless goofy women, especially in this dark and heartless world. ❤️

We keep hearing how important Test cricket is, but where are the fans in South Africa? Empty stands, no atmosphere, and we’re supposed to believe the format is thriving? You can’t keep calling Test cricket the pinnacle of the game if no one turns up to watch it. Harsh reality, but someone has to say it. Pathetic
