Weekly Notes 45/2023
We spent an extended weekend at Bekkina Kaadu (Linger) near Magadi. We did nothing other than sleep, eat, and watch. On Sunday, we had to rush back as Echo wasn’t feeling well. Bekkina Kaadu is very close to the city and yet very far. It can be an ideal place to do focused work as you get Airtel 4G and nothing to distract you (other than ofcourse internet).

We are yet to restart our monthly date nights properly; maybe this is that restart. We are staying at Linger this weekend....
70-Hour Work Week
I heard NRN’s message on the need for 70+ hours of work week. Unfortunately, this is not the first time NRN has said something like this. He has said many times; I have heard similar comments from him a decade back, too. There are issues with it, in my opinion.
Can you explain “War Crime” like I am 5
I asked ChatGPT this question. So I can explain a kid. Since the adult world is so confused(??) and debating, I thought the focus should be on children.
