- It'll be nice if you guys take a look at AWS prices too... thank youKarnataka Government orders fixing the price for the movie tickets across the state including multiplexes. The prices of tickets should not exceed Rs 200 inclusive of entertainment tax.
- 10000% - If I wasn't in Bangalore, I would have probably never grown exponentially as a person!Young folks in India are happy working from their native home & saving cost of rent and getting home food.

Building open protocols for e-commerce is an insanely good public good! Is it the first of its kind in the world? Well done @CimGOI and @ONDC_Official

- Indian startup ecosystem has a "operators" talent density problem. There are far too many young folks leaving opportunities on the table to become founders, before building the muscle of scaling existing businesses. This is one stark difference I see between the valley and here.
- If any of you want to test or see what APIs for BBPS, UPI, PAN, GST, Bank Verification, Digilocker, eSign, Account Aggregator looks like, go to api-playground.setu.co right away. Test without writing a single line of code! @Setu_API @amrishrau
