🙋🏽‍♀️ I have four seats available in my office in Indiranagar (super close to 100ft) that are available for independent creatives/illustrators/freelancer graphic designers to use on a monthly basis. This is a creative space so we are looking to add a bunch of more to the mix :) DM

OK, this is wild. In Sept 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was recorded in the Arctic. And Antarctica. Then everywhere, every 90 seconds, regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

One of my favourite startup and product is going to shut. It's hard to find quality news delivered daily without rage and succinct explainers. Sad, such services are hard to take off as business. All the best to the team and Lakshmi Chaudhry in your next venture.
