My advice for JMCs is to pick jobs that maximise the prob. that 10 years on you've answered questions you find meaningful. Helps avoid academia's most soul destroying outcome-writing papers only for tenure. Low teaching & mentors/coauthors are more useful than dept rank or money

This is not an NDA vs UPA post. But as India approaches elections, there’s a lot of chatter about how the current govt is doing well because they are spending more on infrastructure. Capex is up. Is this the best way of looking at performance? (1/6)
