Let’s be honest. Before ChatGPT, most people thought AI was either: a robot in a movie 🤖 or something only NASA engineers talked about. Then OpenAI dropped ChatGPT. Boom. The internet didn’t change slowly. It tilted. Suddenly: Coders started coding faster Designers started designing without drawing Writers started arguing with...
The announcement that gold production is returning to Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) has created excitement, nostalgia, and a fair bit of confusion. Many assume that India is reopening its legendary deep gold mines after decades of silence. That assumption is wrong. The reality is far more modern, far more strategic,...
We like to believe we’ve figured life out. We split atoms. We send machines to Mars. We label ourselves the most intelligent species and give Nobel Prizes to people who explain what already exists. And then… a crow lies down near an ant colony and quietly humbles us. No textbooks....
Zodiac signs were not invented by mystics or astrologers with crystal balls. They were created by ancient astronomers — practical sky-watchers who needed order in the chaos above. Origin: Around 2000–3000 BCE ( 4,000 to 5,000 years ago ) in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) Who: The Babylonians Why: To track seasons,...

Most people think only very fat people get diabetes or heart disease. That sounds logical, right? But in India, something strange happens. Many people look thin. They look healthy. They wear normal clothes. Yet inside their body, serious problems are slowly growing. That is why India has very high diabetes...
Retirement at 50 isn’t about sipping coconut water on a beach all day. That fantasy dies by Day 7. Real retirement today is financial independence + mental occupation + physical survival. Especially when you have a spouse, a 10-year-old child, and a startup dream that refuses to shut up. Let’s...
For years, Chabahar Port in Iran was sold to Indians as a masterstroke — a bold geopolitical move that would free India from Pakistan’s chokehold, open a gateway to Afghanistan and Central Asia, and place India firmly on the Eurasian trade map. Today, that dream is wobbling. Not because India...
There was a time when Indians travelled with fear packed tighter than their luggage. Fear of hotel availability. Fear of food. Fear of toilets. Fear of getting stuck somewhere unknown with no Plan B. So we postponed the dream. “After retirement.” “After kids grow up.” “After this job stops haunting...
