Suppose that once a week, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to £100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this: The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay £1. The sixth would pay £3.

Blinkit is selling onions for ₹32/kg right now. And no, Blinkit or Zepto don’t buy from farmers; they buy from aggregators & mandi middlemen who first pick up the same onions from farmers at ₹1/kg & then flip them for ₹35–₹40/kg to private players & supermarkets. Farmers are

Ever notice how we like to imagine ourselves as advanced and rational, but humanity hasn’t changed in thousands of years. When a technologically primitive culture suddenly comes face to face with a more advanced one, the reaction is always the same; they turn the visitors into

Tonight it finally clicked for me. Neo asks her the classic question: “If you already know what I’m going to do… do I really have a choice?” And she hits him with the line: “You’ve already made the choice. You’re just here to understand why.” For years I thought this meant
