Raghuram Rajan, the quintessential central banker-professor, is back. Explains the process and consequences of monetisation in detail in a LinkedIn post. “Monetisation Is Neither A Game Changer Nor A Catastrophe.” His views explained below 👇🏽 bloombergquint.com/coronavir…

Le gouverneur de la @banquedefrance vient de déclarer que "la France risque d'être étranglée par les taux d'intérêt" à cause de sa dette publique. Une déclaration qui montre l'inconscience (ou incompétence ?) du nouveau gouverneur nommé par @EmmanuelMacron linkedin.com/safety/go/?url=…

There was a time when @narendramodi went knocking on @rajinikanth's door. Rajini missed his moment, and you have to wonder what must be going through his mind seeing these visuals! That said, Rajinikanth is a genuinely good, decent, and humble human being. He doesn't need to live this fake life.

#IndiaWatch🇮🇳: India's money supply (M3) is EXPLODING. It's growing at 17.3%/yr. The 6-month annualized rate is 20.2%. The 3-month annualized rate is 31.5%. THIS SPELLS TROUBLE. Hanke's Golden Growth Rate for M3 is 10.2%/yr, a rate consistent with hitting India's 4% inflation target. IT'S NO SURPRISE THAT INFLATION IS SURGING AND IS WELL ABOVE THE TARGET. THE RBI = LOSING CONTROL.

நடக்காத ஒன்றை, நடந்தது போல திரும்ப திரும்ப சொல்லிக்கொண்டே இருப்பது; தீய செயலை செய்து கொண்டே, அது இயல்பான செயல் போல உருவகப் படுத்துவது; தீயவர்களை உடன் சேர்த்து கொண்டு, அது தவறற்றது போல் சொல்வது; அரசியல் தாண்டி, இளைய சமூகத்திற்கு இதை கற்றுக் கொடுக்கிறோம் என்பது கொடூர செயல்.

What’s your guess, Pallavi? Or should I guess why you are speaking the language of BJP? 🤔

Some people are so naïve that they regard the two Gujarati tycoons as “our own” capitalists, while treating Elon Musk as a foreign capitalist. This is a profound delusion. In a globalised world, Indian origins alone do not make a capitalist “one of us.” Those whom some embrace as “our own” merely happened to be born in India. When one buys cheap Russian oil and sells it to Europe at a profit, concern for the Indian people does not guide his decisions. When the other profits in Israel by selling off Indians’ water, forests and land, or moves Indian money to Seychelles or Mauritius, where is that supposed loyalty? These “Indians” buy foreign citizenship for members of their families. They are simply capitalists. Exploiting Indians does not make them concerned about the welfare of the Indian people. @elonmusk is an American born in South Africa. When he writes about the brutal monopolies dominating the Indian market, he points to a deeply disturbing truth. With a witty jab, Rahul Gandhi captured the anguish of consumers suffocating under Indian capitalism. Speaking out against this brutality under Modi is an act of profound patriotism. Thank you @RahulGandhi 🙏❤️

AI இருக்க பயம் ஏன் ?? நாடு செழிக்க AI.. சிறப்பா வேலை செய்றிங்க ப்ரோ இப்போ இப்படி தான் இருக்கு . என்ன பண்ணலாம் ? 🧐

To be very clear, even after Gyanesh Gaddar’s resignation, the protest will continue until all the three demands are met. Freezing of voter list pre-SIR and change in the EC appointment process are our other demands.

Fifth question on AI. AI is currently viewed as a centralizing technology – with ever-larger models, trained on much of the world’s knowledge, running on massive, concentrated compute, overseen by a few companies, and aiming to control and deploy all of that knowledge But many early computer scientists and pioneers thought of digital technologies as powerfully decentralizing, as Simon Johnson and I discuss in our book Power and Progress (hachettebookgroup.com/titles…). One such pioneer, Lee Felsenstein, wrote “The industrial approach is grim and doesn’t work: the design motto is Designed by Geniuses for Use by Idiots.” In the words of one of his collaborators, Bob Marsh, “We wanted to make the microcomputer accessible to all human beings.” And this wasn’t just an aspiration; they believed it was both feasible and natural that computers would empower individuals. The first newsletter of People’s Computer Company also captures this optimism: “Computers are mostly; used against people instead of for people; used to control people instead of to free them; time to change all that – we need a…PEOPLE’S COMPUTER COMPANY”. Should we accept centralizing AI? Or is there a way in which the promise of artificial intelligence can be realized while data, capabilities and control are much more decentralized both across domains and across people? Wouldn’t decentralized AI be more consistent with human agency and control? (Some of the ways in which greater decentralization can happen are discussed in my first post in this series.)

The Wildlife Society of Orissa (WSO), an environmental pressure group, on Saturday (October 3, 2026) claimed that not a single tiger or elephant poacher has served a jail sentence for the crime in Odisha, pointing to poor enforcement and lack of commitment of the wildlife wing. ✍️@satyabarik thehindu.com/news/national/o…

if u guys r detained immediately, then u must rethink ur strategy. don’t blame others for ur failures.

It’s a very big problem. A certain section—not just the BJP—another party thinks “saving India, saving constitution” is only their job. They are self-declared liberals and self-declared thekedars of the constitution. It’s a very salty ecosystem, acting worse than the BJP’s ecosystem sometimes. They must realise that they can’t divide and rule through such tactics. Their massive failures over the years has led us to this moment where the young have to show the way. So they should just zip it on us and focus on how to support the young! Total buffoons!

I never doubted @TVKVijayHQ 's intentions in seeking public office. He is here to make a difference and for the betterment of our people. However I had my doubts about his ability to put in the grind , bear the gruel of a political life. Today he has definitively answered those doubts and silenced his critics. When the going got tough, he stepped up. Today, he looks even more unbeatable
