Essay
Six years teaching UPSC, five attempts at the exam myself, and the case for why the funnel wastes the country's most disciplined minds.
Bengaluru · IN
I'm building danadone in Bengaluru. On the side I built mineOS, the operating system my ADHD brain needed.
This site is mostly a place I think out loud about agents, the shape of work after AI, the country I live in, and how a non-linear mind actually works. If something here lands, the email at the bottom of the page is the right way to reach me.

Essay
Each layer of a hierarchy slightly modifies the order from above. AI-enabled small orgs don't pay that tax.
Short
Opinions I currently hold on the economy, AI, cities, building, and a few that started on LinkedIn.
Building
A community-and-AI play anchored in HSR Layout, Bengaluru. Day-job. More when there's something real to show. danadone.club
mineOS
A markdown vault and a set of agents I built for myself, around the way I actually work: non-linear, capture-first, projects rotating in and out of focus. Internal for now. The thinking behind it is a short piece if you want it.
/now
Most of the week is on danadone. Alongside that, a content engine I'm running for myself, a couple of small earning experiments, and a slow re-read of Poor Charlie's Almanack. The thing I'm watching unfold the most carefully right now: how fast small AI-enabled orgs are going to take revenue out of incumbents that employ thousands. Probably faster than most people are pricing in.
Talk
If something on this site landed, write to me: a position you want to argue with, a question you've also been chewing on, a way we might build something together. Skip the introductions; lead with the thing.
