🎆It's been longer than I would have liked but Diwali week was reading time for me.

So I'm making it up to you with a really fantastic list of articles today – they're each worth a read.
ज्ञान
The trouble with ignorance is that it feels so much like expertise. A leading researcher on the psychology of human wrongness sets us straight.
We increasingly let computers fly planes and carry out security checks. Driverless cars are next. But is our reliance on automation dangerously diminishing our skills?
Headphones, and the audio they hiss into our ears, changed everything. Our social values and instincts have changed because of headphones. Populism and politics have changed because of headphones.

The audio revolution happened while everyone looked elsewhere.
What the Amazon founder and CEO wants for his empire and himself, and what that means for the rest of us.

Today's subject line is from this article.

Startup Classifieds
We're hiring Lead, Insights & Communications (Principal). This is a great role where you will have the chance to interact intimately with product teams at India's best technology companies and tell their stories.

Slide into my DMs if you could be interested.

Quotable
