    South Bengal votes Wednesday. The RG Kar case didn&amp;#39;t end with protests. It ended with silence from those in power. That silence is a choice. So is your vote. Vote like someone is watching. Because someone always is. #WestBengal

    In the ever-evolving knowledge economy, companies keep inventing new metrics to measure worker productivity. The latest one: tokens consumed.

    Praja Poll predicted a 200+ mandate for BJP in West Bengal. A tweet tried to “expose” them for sampling 4.5L men vs only 1.5L women. But I found that quite interesting. A few Stat backed points in my new blogpost. #statistics #analytics #datascience #newsletter #blogpost #India https://open.substack.com/pub/ordinaryanalysis/p/decoding-the-praja-poll-exit-poll?utm_source=app-post-stats-page&amp;amp;r=i27rg&amp;amp;utm_medium=ios

    Does your organisation share AI usage data with employees? Weekly snapshots, leaderboards, peer comparisons - anything of that sort. Boosts are appreciated for a wider sample. #GenAI #AI #Tech #Technology #poll

    Most GenAI-driven productivity debates, I feel, quietly assume GenAI is just a coding tool. But for teams actually building AI-native features, the problem is quite different. Wrote about it in my blog, with a couple of visuals that I think make the argument clearer than words alone. #GenAI #Tech #DataAnalytics #ProductManagement https://www.grainofdata.com/p/genai-in-product-means-ends
