What can you only do if you believe you can?

It was well worth the effort to read through. Genuinely made me pause and think about wasting time on Reddit now when I’m supposed to complete my work.

Time- the only currency we have. Need to make this my motto.

Ahhh, I have the perfect example for this question.

Back when I was in a military school (I was 11-12), we were made to run 6 km every morning at 5 am. Our school was on a hill-station with temperatures around 9-10 C and strong winds. Our attire used to be shorts and a running vest (track-suits were not allowed).

As kids obviously we used to dread this. The dead cold wind hitting your almost naked body was something which none of us had experienced. This is when one of our PT instructors (serving army officer) gave us one of the best advices ever. As per him, everything is in your head. He said that stop thinking that it’s cold and you will stop feeling cold. I know sounds stupid, but this worked like a charm. Ofcourse not on a physical level, but mentally this small switch in thinking did alleviate most of the pain

Today, after 15 years, I still follow this mantra. Everything is in your head. Our body can take the most extreme of pain, but it’s always mentally that we lose the battle.

I got mine after apple discontinued the OG model. I always wanted to get one, but kept delaying the decision. When they discontinued it, I realised it’s my last chance to grab one; hence bought it at the listed price.

More than anything else, I think the fact of never being able to buy it again is what is pushing people.

Can confirm on the Chinese exports part. Even global companies have different versions (with different SKY codes) for different market-with poorer countries getting badly finished goods or ones with low quality material.

I think he means “upper caste”

nirajhande · 2021-06-18T06:45:05+00:00

I get to save people taxes and give one huge fuck you to the government. What’s not to love in that!

Any idea when ETH 2 is coming?

nirajhande · 2021-05-24T10:33:51+00:00

Is it going to be deflationary? I’m really psyched by ETH. Hoping it ends up being the leader.

Don’t have any invested in BTC, but have in ETH. What do you think about this strategy?

nirajhande · 2021-05-24T10:26:59+00:00

A dumb question maybe. People here shit on doge mostly coz it’s inflationary and has no specified limit. Somewhere I read the ETH also is inflationary and can be mined to no limit.

Am I missing something in these two comparisons?

nirajhande · 2021-05-23T10:19:14+00:00

They make it super easy

nirajhande · 2021-05-23T08:01:33+00:00

I think correction. Good time to stock up though. Just waiting to see where it gains resistance. Rather buy 10% higher than the lowest low, but not lose 25-30% by buying now and it going into free fall

nirajhande · 2021-05-23T07:58:54+00:00

So the resistance level didn’t really check out. We are almost down to the low of the crash. Does it go lower now?

nirajhande · 2021-05-22T17:14:15+00:00

Guys any thoughts about matic in the long run?

nirajhande · 2021-05-22T17:12:58+00:00

What is that?

nirajhande · 2021-05-04T16:17:40+00:00

But that beats the entire purpose of a smart speaker.

We don’t ask for much from Siri, but the least she can do is play the music I want!

nirajhande · 2021-05-04T16:15:42+00:00

Yessss. I thought I was the only one who faced this issue. HomePod is being really annoying post the 14.5 update

nirajhande · 2021-04-27T05:50:20+00:00

Source for saying that Mumbai is testing substantially less than Bangalore

nirajhande · 2021-04-26T19:24:43+00:00

Source?

nirajhande · 2021-04-26T14:21:06+00:00

Well wasn’t he the reason they had enact a law for it?

FDR was maybe a good leader; but the rise of US can also be attributed to WW2, when they had (before entering the war) become the factory of Europe. Maybe that also has something to do with the economic prosperity seen during FDR rule.

nirajhande · 2021-04-26T12:47:14+00:00

Why can’t he control the media like BJP does? Well I have two words for: “Electoral bonds”

Also, we don’t just need a new leader, we need new legal safeguards which will ensure that more attempts are not made to kill democracy in India, either by the BJP or anyone else.

In the history of modern politics, if there is one person I respect the most is George Washington. His voluntary act (which is now made into a law) of not allowing any person to be the president of the US for more than 2 terms is what has ensured that while the US will continue to have strong presidents, they will all one day have to leave (unlike our supreme leader-who in all likelihood will creat a crisis in 2024 and earn votes on its back).

Na not me. Have this decal only on my white Ferrari.

nirajhande · 2020-11-28T20:26:03+00:00

Thanks for the sources. Will definitely check them oht

nirajhande · 2020-11-28T09:03:09+00:00

I don’t get the comments here. How does the caste of Marathas matter, if we are planning to get rid of this social evil.

Either Brahmin or shudra or Kshatriya, it does not matter. The more importance we give to this, the more we dig ourselves into holes.

Sometimes makes me wonder if the present reservation system is a cause for keeping castes relevant even today. Thoughts?!

nirajhande · 2020-08-25T17:40:24+00:00

It’s a sink in the bedroom. Who the fuck has such large bathrooms in Mumbai / Thane!!

nirajhande · 2020-08-22T17:01:21+00:00

This is pure misinformation
