Superb interview with Abhijit Banerjee. Lots of interesting ideas.
Abhijit Banerjee says, the UPA and also NDA were thinking of having a system where anyone could claim their benefits from govt irrespective of where they were, using Aadhaar. "That would have been wonderful to have that right now.... that would have saved a lot of misery." Image
"Even if an individual migrates or shifts temporarily to some other place, she or he will be entitled to benefits of all government schemes". Sonia Gandhi, after the 1st ten people got their #Aadhaar nos.

"Would have been wonderful"

I've been spending some time every day reflecting on an idea from Indian philosophy. I used digital poster-making as a tool for thinking. Here they are.

Grateful to @StudioCarreras/@Domestika for inspiration. And to @krayker, @msharmas & @sriramvasan

The slow food movement is an antidote to the cult of speed that Zomato’s 10-minute delivery is pushing.

Here are some highlights from In Praise of Slow, a brilliant book by Carl Honoré.

🧵

"Food, like everything else, has been hijacked by haste."

/1
"Today, most meals are little more than refuelling pit stops."

/2
"As life got faster, people rushed to replicate the convenience of fast food at home."

Interesting how Zomato plans to pull this off. Quite different from how Uber tried doing it in NYC a few years ago.

My favorite books on systems thinking.
Thinking in Systems: A Primer by Donella Meadows
A simple and clear introduction. My favorite chapters are 4, 5, 6 & 7. And also the first three chapters. Okay, that's the entire book.

Systems Thinking For Social Change by @davidpeterstroh
Written for practitioners, based on Stroh's long experience working with organisations trying to solve tough problems. Has great examples. There's much to learn from the way he tells systems stories.
