And India will reciprocate by boycotting all those countries which try to do this.

But you are starting a new type of apartheid.

I can share ten stories where the offenders are Muslims and the victims are Hindus. Wire won't be covering those stories. This newspaper is as prejudiced against Hindus as it gets.

Not sure if this fits the bill :

a) blot.im # I am a happy customer. Starts at 4$ per month. b) https://mataroa.blog/ # Not tried this. But looks promising.

One excel file with Monthly budgeting and expenses. I do not track money on a day to day basis. I assign myself x amount a month for expenses and I am good as long as I do not exceed that amount.

ISLR from Hastie and Co is a great intro to Data Science. Math is not too daunting and the examples are very nice. The authors have generously provided a free version of the book for download.

Which sorting rules have you found useful? Thanks.

Do what is possible and mention the constraints in your Daily standup. And relax during the downtime. There is nothing much that can be done.

Thanks. One more question: I am trying to get into a new field (cybersecurity) with limited knowledge. Would posting beginner level content in a field I have no expertise over weigh against me later when trying to interview?

This is cool/ I would like to do something similar where I leverage my blog and Twitter: Any pointers on how you did this? Thanks.

Cybersecurity Data science experts and Cybersecurity folks in general.

This is helpful. Thanks. I will try this today. BTW, Two weeks is quite good.

you are already doing quite well and have savings to wade through any problems. So, relax a bit.

Two suggestions:

a) Read Matt Ridley's Rational optimist : This shows the arc of progress and provides strong arguments on how our future will be better

b) https://thomasjbevan.substack.com/p/all-news-is-bad-news : Basically asks you not to read the news at all, unless there is something that you can use a year from now.

> today I can go to that near sleep state in just a minute or two

This is wonderful. How many days did you take to come to this stage?

I was not aware of NSDR. I will look into it. BTW, has either of these practices reduced your overall sleep time per day?

Try Yoga Nidra. This might help. There are a Lot of videos on How to do this on youtube.

Actually, In the country I am from, Active funds still handily beat Index funds as of today.

Understanding Macro cycles via economics might be part of the said 'edge'.

Initially used it for weekly reviews and for gathering notes. Then went into the rabbit hole of using the templates created by others.

Gave it up and use multiple apps now. Main ones being Dendron, Complice and workflowy.

If one wants to make money, what would you suggest as you said economics won't help?

Not science fiction.

From my memory,

a) Brothers Karamazov (Dosteovsky)

b) Crime and Punishment (Dosteovsky)

c) Master and Margarita (Bulgakov)

d) Short stories of Checkhov

e) Pale fire (Nabakov).

Not sure if you would consider Nabakov as Russian or American, but his prose has clarity and is hypnotic.

Can you please elaborate on the 'depersonalised thinking'?

Will look up the first book. Thanks.

you said : Courses (There are a lot of good free courses I can do).

Can you mention any good courses which are free?

Where exactly do you use number line? Thanks.

This sounds fun. How does one get into something like this?

Where will this stop? How about banning Music concerts? Then we can stop leisure travel?

We will head into a slippery slope if we go down this path.

Intro Data Science :

Introduction to statistical learning from Hastie, et all. Generously hosted for free by the authors here.

My job title was Assistant Manager while the actual role was that of a Senior Business analyst. Similarly, in another organisation, the title was 'Senior Software engineer'. I was neither senior nor a software engineer but a Data Scientist.

I had to change the title on the resume/job portals. If not, the resume would not get shortlisted for any job opportunities.

I have spent a considerable amount of time using various apps. I wanted to build better habits and procrastinate less.

The app that helped me was free. It was Google Family link. Using this app, I was able to disable chrome and youtube from my android phone. This did cut down on my procrastinating hours.

This.

After using Notion, Obsidian, Mem and other tools, I have settled down on this app. Solid community too.

Hire someone else to do this work.

Does this intended move to cybersecurity have any overlap with your current role? How are you preparing for this transition?

I am looking to move into Cybersecurity too hence asking.

This is a good book with lot of compelling arguments.
