Hello everyone. Happy Diwali! Thank you for your criticism, your support and your time over the last two days. Gives me much needed clarity on what we need to explain better: 1. ⁠Temple is not made for India. It’s made for the world. Please check pricing. We don’t expect any more than 1% of Temples being sold in India. 2.⁠ ⁠If you are upset that the pricing is too high, I am sorry. There’s a lot of work that went into Temple, and we priced it at what we think it’s worth. If you think its overpriced, you can wait for user reviews to decide if its worth your money. 3.⁠ ⁠Please do not support us because we are an Indian startup. We want to compete globally. We don’t need/want nationalist support. Support us if you want to support early innovation, which could help you live a better life, and will continue to add more proof to its science over the years. 4.⁠ ⁠There are different audiences which buy products at various levels of proof. Proof goes from whitepaper -> pre-print -> peer reviewed. You are free to sit on the fence until peer reviewed proof arrives. You are free to not believe it even then. Nobody is forcing you to buy. Making announcements is our right; and if we overclaim anywhere, we will inevitably fall into regulatory trouble everywhere in the world. 5.⁠ ⁠We didn’t make any medical claim. Doctors primarily see things from a medical lens, so they see every claim as a medical claim. I repeat – Temple is strictly a fitness + AI device, and we've made no medical claims. Temple is not proven to diagnose or prevent any disease. It doesn't do anything which replaces the need for you to see a doctor. 6.⁠ ⁠The main point of Temple is NOT Brain Flow. That’s what we just started Temple for, and studies on Brain Flow are the first ones getting out. 7.⁠ ⁠The main point of Temple is Entropy (I shared the HomeScreen of Temple three months ago with Entropy as the main thing). Our emails to our waitlisted users only talk about Entropy. We haven’t published anything on Entropy yet. We will. If you want to buy Temple before that, please do. If you don’t want to, don’t. 8.⁠ ⁠Roomdeaf AI is an expansion of the device’s capabilities, and our vision for Temple. It is not a pivot. 9.⁠ ⁠Social media is not the regulator for Temple. Wherever we need regulatory clearances, we will have them before we make any claim needing them. 10. I will post a detailed note on how we calculate Brain Flow, its uses, and most importantly, its limitations in a bit (tomorrow).

Mr. Chief Minister, Since you don’t acknowledge nuances of federal cooperation, let me explain, Bengaluru Metro follows a 20:20:60 funding model: 20% each from Centre and State, and 60% through loans from international agencies, backed by the Centre’s sovereign guarantee. Without the Centre’s backing, these projects would not even take off. Considering all the approved phases Bangalore Metro Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 2A & 2B and Phase 3 Government of India has committed Rs 41,557 crores for construction of various metro projects in Bengaluru . Whereas Government of Karnataka has committed Rs. 36,332 crores of rupees for the construction of Bangalore Metro. Which international lender would fund a project based on the guarantee of your Pauper Sarkara?

Bengaluru: Hebbal Flyover will not be completely closed for 18 months, @BDAOfficialGok said on Saturday. Vehicular movement will continue with phased diversions & regulated restrictions during construction of ₹445.7-crore elevated corridor. Barricading will affect only one of the existing three lanes in each direction, leaving two lanes and service roads open. BDA, GBA & Traffic Police will improve alternative roads, including New BEL Road and RT Nagar Station Road, before introducing diversions. The 1.74-km, four-lane corridor is scheduled for completion in 18 months. @mlanaharis @Captain_Mani72

I work at a corporate office in Chennai, and something about our workplace culture has been bothering me. During Onam, the company organised a full-day celebration during working hours. Traditional dress code, activities, team celebrations - the whole package. I was even expected to participate and ended up buying a dhoti specifically for the occasion. Now, before anyone misunderstands me, I have absolutely nothing against Onam. Every festival deserves to be celebrated. But here's the interesting part: Not even one person in our office is from Kerala ! Fast forward to Diwali. I walked into the office today, one day before Diwali. Nothing. Just another normal working day. I thought maybe something was planned for the evening, so I waited. Nothing happened. We're not asking for expensive gift hampers, bonuses, crackers or grand celebrations. Not even a small box of sweets. Apparently, an entire working day can be dedicated to one festival, but a simple festive gesture for another seems impossible. Is this workplace inclusivity or selective celebration? I'm genuinely curious : Do other companies in Chennai operate this way, or is this just our special corporate culture ? 🫢

In WorldSkills Competiton Beijing, Karnataka got highest number of medals for India. Of the winners, most came from rural background, low-income families. Parents, small farmer, housekeeper, private bus conductor. Amazing stories of grit, determination, excellence at world stage

The manner in which pro-Kannada activists are entering offices in Bengaluru must be called out- this is an attempt to intimidate and bully companies based in the city.

Men has to pay 35% of bus price hike but Women has free Ride Karnataka govt is peak Feminist 😌

#WATCH | Bengaluru: Karnataka Transport Minister Byrathi Suresh says, "Today we have hiked about 32 to 33% ticket prices in BMTC, and the rest of the boards, NWKRTC, KKRTC and KSRTC, we have hiked about 23%. We have calculated all these things stage-wise. Regarding the Shakti Scheme, there is a misunderstanding. Shakti Scheme is our dream. In our Congress Party manifesto, we promised that all ladies from Karnataka will get free tickets. So all Shakti Scheme money, the government is paying to all four of our corporations. Not one single rupee our corporations are paying for the Shakti Scheme. The full money is coming from the government. This is very clear..."

Nikhil Kamath in a podcast said why higher revenue generated by Karnataka is being distributed to UP and Bihar kind of state? Now, Since we are talking at this level then the answer is - because people from Bihar and UP or any other states for that matter is contributing to generate tax revenue in Karnataka. They work in a particular state but to be eligible to get work, their home state has invested in them by providing education and environment for the upbringing of child. What benefits Home state is going to have in investing in a child's development so that they can get high paying job and contribute to tax revenue, if you don't pass the revenue to them, Isn't that unfair to them?
