Nice documentary about the video game designer Hideo Kojima. Producing video games is perhaps more complex to execute than any other form of entertainment. Software+Story+Gameplay+Music+Artwork+Acting+Distribution+Continuity He’s had a great run.

Superb book by @bcmerchant If one really learns the amount of minerals that need to be unearthed from the ground to make electronics we would try and use them for as long as possible. A good history about one of the greatest consumer electronic products out there.

Until I read the Arun Mohan Sukumar's Midnight's Machines, a lot of the business decisions in the Indian tech space in 1960's-70's were a bit hard to relate to. Do check it out for a very good historical context on India's science & tech adoption.

Some lessons are best learnt from fiction. #SuccessionHBO is perhaps one of the best business dramas out there. "The future is real, the past is all made up" 👌🏽 Any other good business dramas to watch / read?
