While growing up in India I knew some Parsi families - they are good at business, ethical and charitable. The Tata Group in India founded by Parsis , a 150 year old business conglomerate- is well respected and known for their philanthropy.

A bubble is an objectively irrational shared belief in a better potential future … No, bubbles in the world of economics are inherently bad, ponzi schemes concocted by charlatans.

How is this different from an intense gym workout or playing racquetball or yoga? Comparing these to running and not psychedelics. I don't want to be doing any strenuous physical activity on psychedelics, a hike through nature would be

It's a masterpiece of classical literature, timeless and always relevant to whatever generation you belong to. When we did Macbeth and Julius Caesar in school, one of the requirements in the test was to write critical reasoning argumen

He is a whining man-child who refuses to grow up, the writing does not suggest a mentally ill person - and I believe that lots of people who started receiving government checks, now don't want to go back to work - the employment number

Not necessary. I know folks who came here studied and worked (got tired of the green card waiting game), went back home and started companies.

RIP Eric Carle. Just a few days back my 5 year old announced how Eric Carle is his favorite author and how he wants to meet him. It took me quite by surprise because not many kids that young care about authors, they like a book and are done

That's what I was referring to. SF has the highest density of billionaires, but apparently they lack taste.

This is something that really bothers me - all those billions of dollars of tech money and you cannot find a way to house and support artists. New York billionaires have always found a way to support artistic endeavors. Case in point - Bloo

I think this so called "exodus" is temporary. Young people will come back to SF, it's the only city in the larger Bay Area which has culture and vibrancy. San Jose downtown area has plenty of potential, and it was seeing a re

I think this is why a lot of big, corporate entities stop innovating. Too many processes, red tapism all in the same of security and stability. Most workers are too afraid to try something new because of repercussions. Worked in some, decid

Thanks, am seeing the dermatologist again and may ask her if they need to do a blood test.I've heard that when liver enzymes are out of whack it can lead to allergy like symptoms.

The farther back you go the better the cursive, my grand-dad wrote in this beautiful cursive script. My hand-writing always sucked, it got worse with ballpoint pens. Now I can barely write :-)

Loved fountain pens as a school kid in India. You had to write in cursive and "proper" handwriting was a big deal. They would not allow ball point pens in the younger grades. But they were messy. Then someone came up with the brig
