Week 16, 2025
- π₯ Slow Horses (S1) on Apple TV is a nail biting fun thriller series; that also allowed me to feel for each character than just letting them be props for thrills- and what well made

Week 13, 2025
- π₯ The Studio on Apple TV is hilarious :D
- π₯ DJ with Apple Music - Now rekordbox has the same feature for which I switched over to Algoriddam's DJAY Pro. As the video points, this is a tipping point for a streaming first DJing era.
- π Future of mental health, and medicine in general, is exciting. It too is on the cusp of so much change. Glad to see companies like this already emerging/thriving in the west. Wonder when India will (be allowed to) catch up.
- π AI changing education & school systems is what excites me most these days. Alpha School was in much news this week
- π How tyre recycling issues are fueling an environmental crisis in India - the numbers related to waste and disposal, in general, boggle my mind.
- π§ Chat between Tyler Cowen and David Perell had many gems for me. Biggest one was that he doesnβt care if everyone stops reading his stuff, he will not let AI touch his writing. But he uses AI like a pro for gains in thinking/reading all the time everyday. Also quoting what especially stood out for me:
Two pieces of general advice, with or without AI in the world, that I think are pretty good for almost everyone is get more and better mentors and work every day at improving the quality of your peer network.
- π Chatbots will pull lonely people further away from human connections, the studies corroborate this intuitive truth.
- π§ Listened to the explanation of Sukhmani Sahab by Shivpreet Singh. I find the author's voice very calming and soulful.
Week 12, 2025
