A nobody cares thread.

Nobody cares about the things that matter - getting investors in, helping new distributors advisors, making things (Slightly) easier for investors, honest mis-selling etc.

Nobody cares about direct plans of mutual funds

Nobody cares about about mutual funds either

Very few care about mutual funds. Just 2.1 crore unique investors. If you probably take out HNIs/institutions in this, that's maybe 20-30%, what's left are the common gareeb folks.

Nobody cares about direct equity investing either.

Next time when someone says, people are moving away from mutual funds to direct equities, show them this and punch them in the throat.

Only 1.5 cr active demat accounts. If you remove duplicates, maybe 60% of this?

Nobody cares because very few people have money to care either?

Starting PhD student pro tips:

- Keep a backlog of “small ideas” that you don’t find the time to work on. Soon enough you will be asked to supervise undergrad students in some capacity, and these ideas will be exactly what they need to get started.

- In the first two years worry about learning and getting settled in your research field. In year 3+ you can worry about churning out papers (but that’s much easier of you have a good understanding of the field and its methods).

- Believe your advisor on strategy matters, believe in yourself when it comes to details and results (we have good intuition about what’s interesting and important, but only you know what you have actually done and what it means).

- Talk to other students as often as you can. No, they likely won’t know how to solve the specific issue you are currently having, but over time you will learn more from your colleagues than from your advisor.

- Relatedly, other people (your advisor, other profs, other students, reviewers) are neither idiots nor almighty gods of knowledge. They will have insights, but some of the things they tell you will turn out to be garbage.

As discussed earlier, I am writing a #Thread on how Swαmy entered Harvard University. As per claims, Swαmy got full scholarship frm Harvard. I took this SS from official VHS website which says Swαmy got full scholarship frm 'Rockefeller Foundation' & not frm Harvard University 🤷🏻‍♂️

Its important for us to understand wht is Rockefeller Foundation. John Rockefeller was businessmen from US who started funding various Churches & Universities to turn things in his favour, it was his way to manipulate & dictate his terms in governance & setup parallel governance

John Rockefeller was staunch Christian who gave funding to Missionaries to setup schools & Universities in Asia. His particular interest was in China, Vietnam, Philippines & also started funding big US schools like Yale, Harvard, etc. This allowed him to handpick his chosen ones

Dean Rusk was the President of Rockefeller Foundation in 1960's and he was the one who approved the full scholarship to Swαmy. Now its important to understand who was Dean Rusk and wat interest he had in approving those scholarships to students cmng frm Asia...?

Dean Rusk was Secretary of United States from 1961 to 1969 & during the same time he was also President of Rockefeller Foundation.
He was strategic expert in geo politics, particularly in Asia, frm his 2nd World War exp. He was main man behind all US conflicts in 1960's.

There are just 16 days to go until the end of the transition period

But how ready is the UK? (Tl,dr – it’s not and realistically can't be fully prepared)

(Long) thread, building on our @instituteforgov paper from November (most of which still stands…)

First. What does being ready look like?

Deal or no deal – huge changes are coming in Jan. With new customs and regulatory checks at the border, new red tape and rules for businesses, the end of free movement of people +less effective security

In practice, the scale of these changes – and the limited time to prepare alongside covid- mean that the UK will never be fully ‘ready’. Inevitably there will be some disruption at the border, non-compliance with new rules and interrupted trade. Cannot foresee all eventualities.

What are the main stumbling blocks in preparations?
❌The GB-EU border
❌Business readiness
❓NI protocol - last week's agreement has resolved some issues – but there is still a lot to do

GB-EU border
The gov is just about on track to deliver IT systems infrastructure and people needed to make the GB-EU border work from Jan.
But a lot of this has come late in the day-leaving little time for full end-to-end testing and for businesses to make their own preparations

Hillary and Bill Clinton became AGENTS OF THE CCP in the 90's when they began accepting FOREIGN DOLLARS via the #CHINAGATE scandal. Since then, all Democrats have become either willing or unwilling participants in this MONEY LAUNDERING RICO FRAUD including Joe Biden & RINOs.

I often hear the argument: Bitcoin mining is wasting enormous amounts of energy.

Bitcoin mining uses about the same amount of energy as a small country and that is fine!

Time for a thread:

To start, energy consumption in general is not a bad thing. Without it, civilization as we know it would simply not be possible.

If we would monetize your manual labor by putting you on a rowing machine you would have produce approximately $0.30 of value per day.

Energy grids are in nature in efficient. It is impossible to tranport electrical energy over long distances. Because of this approximately 6% of the US energy production is wasted because of losses alone. Just about 3.5X the total energy consumption of the Bitcoin network!

Varying load, seasonal or daily, poses challenges to the grid and the producers. It is for example not always possible or easy to lower supply to match demand.

This brings the need for balancing the network. Without it, the grid will become unstable.

With the increase of renewable energy, the need for load balancing solutions will continue to grow:

Solar energy only creates energy when the sun shines. Wind energy only creates energy when the wind blows.

Documents dropped in US V #GhislaineMaxwell
45 pages plus exhibits which included redacted references, some of which we read out in today's podcast.

Table of contents gives a quick over view of her arguments - devoted to splice!

And those redacted references.

Why redact Scott Borgerson's name we all know.
He is prepared to forfeit all if she disappears!

Two other US citizens have also offered $ - wonder if that was one of referees I spoke about in today's pod?

Bombay HC refers to SC judgment in Arnab Goswami case during the hearing of Varavara Rao's case.

"Now we have a judgment(Arnab case) wherein it has been clarified that HC can grant bail in writ. Earlier there was a grey area. Now the law has been made clear", Justice Shinde says

'Arnab's case was on different facts', submits ASG Anil Singh for NIA @NIA_India

"Earlier both of us were pondering whether under 226 bail can be granted, but the position has been clarified now", Justice Shinde replies.

"Nanavati hospital report is deficient in a number of areas, they have been conspicuously silent on a number of issues"- Anand Grover submits for Varavara Rao.

#VaravaraRao

VV Rao has had ailments from the beginning, they do not have the infrastructure in jail in terms of medical facilities and he keeps getting unwell/sick since the conditions are such, that is why he cannot stay in jail - Grover

#BombayHighCourt
#VaravaraRao

Once he goes back to jail he will again get sick seeing the ailments he is suffering from, so we will be back to court again as he will get sick - Grover

The flying was heavy as all the ballot boxes were being transported by helicopters .We were operating a single Mi8 detachment at Imphal . Night parking was at the Manipur University Helipad. We started our day at 0700h and had been flying for 7hours. 1/n

It was 5 pm. Exhausted after a heavy days flying I was ready to retire to our rooms. As I was shutting down the helicopter , I saw a BSF Jeep pull alongside the Helipad with a commandant rank officer jump out. The urgency in his moves told me something was not right . 2/n

As the helicopter was being shutdown by the flight engineer , I asked the co pilot to take controls and walked out towards the BSF officer .The helicopter blades were still turning. The officer told me that a BSF party has been ambushed near likhai and they have 7 injured 3/n

We checked the fuel onbaord and immediately within 5 minutes got airborne towards likhai. We were told that the casualties have been brought to a football ground near the road going South of Churachandpur. I was airborne meanwhile I heard a flurry of radio calls of two other 4/n

Helicopters airborne for the area .They were near shillong and would take 40 minutes more than me. I told them that I am on the way and they turned back . From knowledge of the terrain I knew that a BSF unit wa stationed in the area with a Helipad. I headed for that helipad 5/n

Let's talk about the Director of NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE.

"The Director of National Intelligence serves as the head of the Intelligence Community."

I don't discuss my projects on Twitter but this is an exception because it is epic.

TLDR: food will follow retail, cloud kitchens will level up local restaurants & Gary V is a genius.

Here goes

👇

In 2019, I got a chance to see a functional @cloudkitchens facility. My immediate reaction was holy s*** this is going to change EVERYTHING.

If you don't know what it is -- here's a feature I

You can now build & launch a delivery-only restaurant within minutes -- like you'd do with a DTC store on Shopify today.

Food was going to follow retail.

The next obvious idea was celebrity food brands!

So I hit up up the two ppl I thought would GET it. @nasdaily & @garyvee

This is getting wild:

"Today, the electoral college votes will be sealed and sent by special carrier to Washington where they will remain sealed until January 6th when the House and Senate will come into a joint session to open the votes..

#Govanhill 🧵: A lone man with an aspiration to be a Mental Health “vlogger/advocate” youtuber for men has started patrolling Govanhill to “get the word out” about child sexual exploitation & general living standards of the area. The Good Samaritan, we know how this goes..

He went up many closes filming, but there was nothing to see in the “nice closes”. He then chose the worst closes to use as “evidence” (they are online and easy to find). Closes that have been condemned, that have no factor and are known to be owned by slum landlords.

During this he spoke about groups of people who are “filthy”.
Cue racism cloaked as the Good Samaritan.
The dog whistles started. The community is no stranger to racist tropes about “dirty foreigners” & general policing of non-white families, it is vile, threatening and not on.

We have a duty to call it out & challenge random people that show up “knowing” more than the community & professionals. They are inciting racial hatred and we cannot be silent on this. I trust the people that work and live there more than a 2 bob GI Joe, and so should you.
