One major reason why we have traffic jams in India is because of us not following traffic rules. Like here, there's traffic signal, the blockade you see here won't cause if everyone followed signal lights. But everyone who breaks it thinks he's too smart, special to cause havoc.

Vehicles stuck in traffic jam at signal with no side having a way to go through without one side letting others go first

The principle of least data. What data is needed specifically to answer a question or understand something? If you collect more data than you actually need, then you remain responsible for all of it and labor in the case of a breach.

Tech bros and govt will have you believe that privacy is about protecting data from accessed by wrong hands and so on. While it is that but more importantly it is about protection against creation of such data in itself.

Lot of data that gets generated honestly should cease to exist immediately.

As I told @markjacob.bsky.social, Chicago journalists are doing a helluva job covering the ICE incursion of our city. The dogged, on-the ground- reporting reveals what's actually happening, not what ICE wants you to believe.

This is cruel. Government today dispenses every service using internet and mobiles and in split second it can cut you off from everything. You do not have any recourse. Courts of course will give a nice lecture minus any judgement in line with that lecture.

Lot of us Indians don't realise the inhumane violence Indian state commits in Kashmir.

For instance Mr Modi's govt when it took statehood away from them put them under a strict lockdown for three months when connectivity was disrupted. They could not even receive OTPs.

As a miserable mean person, I can attest that this is 100% accurate.

Mean people are just showing how they feel about themselves. If you felt good about yourself, you’d be kind to other people. Mean peoples’ words and behaviours are a reflection of what's going on inside of them, not you.

There was a study somewhere that said people in Delhi are losing 8 years of their life due to pollution in the city.

Less said about quality of life but just the years of life... And what are we doing about it in policy terms? We are not even having a serious conversation.

Art is political.

Whether you agree or not is as meaningless as whether you agree sun will rise tomorrow or not.
