Why Scale Impact? This is a question I am asked a lot, especially amongst Development sector(Non Profits) professionals. and my response is not as a technologist, because you can but as a citizen - because we must. To me - this question is like asking: why social change? 🧵

The new CTO of Anthropic and ex-CTO of Stripe is from PESIT. Imagine being a non-IITian, from the #83 college in the country, and having anywhere close to this career trajectory in India.

Excited about AAP winning Punjab ... A party winning with school education as a key agenda - My hope is more parties will start seeing education ... as an important focus area for winning elections .. and hence will start focusing on school education & improve it!

A simple hack - I have found powerful: Start with trading in the category that you hope to manufacture .... Is a low cost way of starting to understand customers actions & their pain points.
