China puts data centers in Malaysia to get access to compute they can't get in China due to sanctions. The US puts data centers in Malaysia because every state bans data centers. AGI happens. Malaysia nationalizes all the data centers and becomes the sole hegemon of the world.

Something a middle-schooler emailed us about:

“A ‘combination lock’ should *technically* be called a ‘permutation lock,’ because the order of the numbers matters in permutations, but in combinations the order doesn’t matter.”

10/10, no notes.

one of the the most valuable skills is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it has to be done, whether you feel like it or not. every other skill you will ever learn sits on top of this one

Nothing new in this news, but it serves as a periodic reminder of administrative apathy and incompetence, lest we forget them amid the euphoria of shiny metro travelling through the skies.

Now that late-stage funding has fallen sharply in India, all these start ups should plan for going public.

That would also mean, they need to be ready to go public 18-24 months prior to the IPO.

India, let's learn from South Korea. It went from importing nuclear energy technology in the 1970s to exporting reactors worldwide, cutting construction costs by nearly 50% through standardisation, strong supply chains and repeat construction. Valuable lessons for India's 100 GW mission by 2047.

If this were India, binance would have denied the claim and got a high court to issue a john doe order to take down any news reporting of the incident.

Any reports that may have survived, a year from now, would be taken down citing the right to be forgotten.

In 2026, MediaNama has been:
1. Sued under the right to be forgotten.
2. Threatened with contempt of court when trying to report on a data breach, which no one has yet reported on months later.
3. Got 6 takedown notices under right to be forgotten, including threats of lawsuit under defamation for reporting on ED raids

Baner road remains undefeated.
The PM will be flying down all the way from Delhi, to Bengaluru, to inaugurate a bloody 7.5 km metro lane—splurging crores of tax-payers’ money for a few hours’ PR circus and consequently causing huge inconvenience to the public on a weekday.

Boy, we can’t be a serious country. It’s a bloody metro lane, man; not a global dais where you’re the raison d’être. For heaven’s sake, leave the inauguration and other menial jobs to the rank and file of the concerned department #NammaMetro

Google never loses revenue or ad clicks on purpose.

They have tons of data and an army of sharp people monitoring and acting on those numbers.

They always have long term plans to get back to more ad clicks and more ad revenue, which may incur a small sacrifice in short term.
Google shoved AI summaries down everyone’s throats, only to realize people were clicking fewer website links because AI was giving them the answers. Now it’s costing them billions in lost ad revenue. Incredible that anyone with half a brain couldn’t have seen this coming.
