With some recent posts/tweets I feel like legal immigration is getting some attention. Hopefully some reform/forward movement or just wishful thinking. #greencardbacklog

Staff Eng author Will Larson has been putting out some great exec stuff. I may never become one but I plan to read all those posts or buy that book when it’s out.

Days like today assure me that I don't understand the co-relation between good/bad news and equity markets and do not think even think about timing the market. Simply DCA!

Many tweets about hiring kids and writing off ~$12k. None of them mention one needs to own a business. No such thing for W2 employees. What irks me is folks mentioning they write off family trips as business expense 😠

On one hand tech companies laying off employees and on the other hand stocks of semiconductor and big tech at all-time highs. Strange times in the valley... 📈 #NVDA

Final episode of Kota Factory captures the nightmare of every Indian student even after growing up; studying for the wrong subject or running late. #kotafactory

Driven through Atherton a couple of times this week due to kids drop off. It’s a different world and makes me realize of my mediocre existence.

Schools have reopened, so Bay Area traffic got worse. So that gives time to think where life/career is going, listen to podcast/music, etc.

Sending Happy X(Holi, Republic Day etc.) messages on any festival/event in WhatsApp groups is like sending liveness message in computer systems 💓

FIRE and their variants have moving targets IMO. $5-$7M would have been a reasonable target few years back but not anymore in the Bay Area where median homes in desirable towns are $4M.

When ppl on workplace Slack post concert tickets because they can’t make it, most of the time I haven’t even heard of the artist/band. 🤷🏽‍♂️
