2173 weekly left. 5 Weekly Notes shipped including this. Yay, etc.
Space Heavy
This was a very space-heavy week. Most of the week was spent on X and LinkedIn, where these updates are mostly available. I wish it were not so.
India docked two satellites in orbit, 3 Indian space startups flew to orbit onboard SpaceX’s Falcon 9, Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin reached orbit, SpaceX’s Starship had a wonderful booster catch and the blow-up of the Ship on the way to orbit.
I summarize most of the Indian activities in the 65th edition of Pradeep’s Space Newsletter.
Personal
This was also a week of doctor visits – for my son and for my wife.
I missed going to either the Indian Science Festival and the Pune Public Policy Festival. I am planning to go for the Pen Festival.
I got my driving license renewed after holding it for 20 years. Renewed for 10 more years now.
Reading
I am continuing to read these books:
- Moustache, S Hareesh, Trans. from Malayalam by Jayasree Kalathil (77% completed)
- The Notebook, A History of Thinking on Paper, Rolland Allen (37% completed)
I also enjoyed reading these links:
- My First Book in 7 Years (and some big experiments), Tim Ferriss
- The Feed, Roma Thakur
- The news exists to inform, not to educate, Vasudevan Mukunth
- X Thread on shopping for shirts, Rajvardhan
Watching
I only watched Asura this week on Netflix. I need to write about it here on the blog. This line from the trailer made me choose to watch this, “Girls are like Asura … Asuras are Indian gods. Outwardly, they have virtues like justice, wisdom, and courtesy. Though, they love to slander.” It made me think again about what Asuras really are.
