Thoughts?
Was driving home. It was around 2 in the morning, the highway is pretty empty around that time. Probably around 85 mph. Driving on the lane closest to the exit, chill ma, When this car switches over three lanes trying to make that exit. Dude probably realized too late that his exit had gone already, and got right in front of me. I hit my brakes as hard as I could, my car skid for around 3 meters before I could have complete control of it all over again. Got so mad, I followed the car. Dude took the next exit, so I did the same. He stopped in front of a light, I rolled my window down, he rolled his and this Hispanic looking dude who was high as fuck, in his Spanish accent said "My bad G." At that point I had calmed down a bit, said "YOU RETARDED MOTHERFUCKER!" he said sorry again, and we went separate ways.
Got home, in my bed and really had myself questioning all night, Why did I not get off my car, go to his, and slap that motherfucker like I really should have, like any normal person would have. I mean, my life was almost at stake here. Do I not love myself enough to do that? cause pretty sure am not scared of just some rando and looking at his physique, I probably could have buried him in like 4 punches Max, So why did I stop myself? This question really does keep me up at night alot. Does it have something to do with the way we Nepalese people are raised? Peace loving and less violent in nature? Am I the only one here? What would you guys have done if you were in my situation?
What ever you might have done, Moral of the story is, Stay in your lane kids, AND ALSO NO PUFFING DRO WHILE DRIVING!, Not everyone is as peace loving and non violent as I am.
With the backing of Satya Nadella, it should be interesting to see whether Groww manages to give better competition to Zerodha.
Discovered something very interesting today on usenet archive.
Have not seen any post referencing this online, so thought this should be interesting for our sub. A fantastically mundane post from the future CEO of Microsoft, a few months before he got started in his job.

The ordinariness of this could possibly inspire us as we enter a new year. An uncertain year.
Indian and Indian-diaspora folks tend to ambitious, scrappy, and rooted-perhaps those are few of several reasons they have achieved success.
I definitely don't intend to extrapolate this to some kind of cheesy messaging wherein any talented,hard working individual would reach great heights. Or worse- extrapolate that any talented, hard working individual is condemned to perpetual failure. Both are obviously untrue.
The truth is that 99.99 % of us won't be remembered in any appreciable, tangible way beyond the next immediate generation. Not by our families, and most certainly not our colleagues at work.
That shouldn't deter us in our pursuit of excellence. In our profession, and in our relationships with loved ones. Dare I say pursuit of excellence should be our dharma. The ripple effects emanating will only herald better days for Bharat.
Different note - soc.culture.indian usenet archives possibly have very interesting nuggets yet to be discovered!
By the way - Satya's post didn't elicit any response- at least not publically. Hence,only he can confirm if this post was a flop or not.
Usenet was before my time on the internet.
Would definitely love to know more from folks who were active in that era.
Searching through archives, it looks like it was an interesting melting pot of all sorts of conversations- at least in the early 90's.
Okay not exactly. Well it was a post about our former president and scientist Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam. I said that as a school kid I used to see this person as a hero. I idolised him. But then he went and bowed down his head to fraud and pedophile Satya sai baba. I lost all respect for him.
That set people off. Most funny comment. ' His personal beliefs were his, they never hurt anyone, so why do you care if he is a devotee of satya sai baba'
My reply was: he was a youth icon. A prime example of excellence. When they do small things, they can have huge impact on the youth.
It never hurt anyone is the religious apologist argument.
I tole him to replace satya sai baba with cocaine.
'yes he did cocain, him doing cocain never hurt anyone so why do you care if he does cocain'
To me, both arguments are exactly same.
Please stay away
