The constant struggle and dilemma revolving around the debt limit in the United States have left the bureaucrats at their wit’s end. The Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, has predicted that the United States would reach its debt limit any day between 15th October and 4th November with an estimated date of 18th October. And so, Congress must address the debt limit. Lately, Congress has been flirting with the idea of not raising the debt limit, and this has created chaos in the American economy because they are on the verge of making the first-ever default in American history. And this…

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) recently generated the first 3D map of an administrative ward.

What if I told you that humans can now predict a crime before it even happens? Well, I know what your first response will be. You will think that it is a ridiculous joke unless, of course, psychics were actually a thing. But this is not a joke, and the so-called psychic in our case will be artificial intelligence. According to The Intercept, the Michigan State Police (MSP) has purchased software that will allow them to predict violence and unrest. Obviously, the first question that comes to our mind is, “How does it even work?” ShadowDragon’s software allows cops to…

I know when you read the title, it sounds pretty philosophical. Frankly, I am not going to lie, it is intellectual, but the idea behind writing this piece is to understand the term that we all seek and work for but may not fully understand what it means. And, sure, I am referring to HAPPINESS. When we think about our future, no matter what our ambitions are, I believe we would all agree that the ultimate goal is to be happy. In the end, all we want is contentment, but what exactly is satisfaction? It is a very subjective concept,…

Being in your twenties isn’t always easy peasy lemon squeezy. Typically, this stage of life is associated with exciting adulthood adventures and the “You only live once” philosophy. Everyone wants to look like a perfect version of themselves in their twenties, as depicted in movies and Netflix shows. But the reality is a lot different than the reel expectations. People in their early twenties are just starting in the real world, and they are going through some significant changes in their lives, and these changes may not be as smooth and sophisticated as they would like. Transitions for this group…

“Non-fungible” basically means that it’s a one-of-a-kind item that can’t be replaced with anything else. For instance, a bitcoin is fungible, meaning you can exchange it for another bitcoin and get the same thing back. On the other hand, a unique trading card is non-fungible, and you’d get something completely different if you traded it in for another card. NFTs can be anything digital (like drawings, music, or even your brain, which can be downloaded and turned into an AI), but the current hype and focus is on using the technology to sell digital art. The beginning of this trend…

Apple recently launched four models of iPhone 13 at Apple’s California Streaming event this Tuesday. And here is everything you need to know about the new product. Apple hosted a keynote style event stating the fantastic features of the new iPhone 13, but if we compare it with previous models, there isn’t much change, to begin with. If we start to count then, there are narrower notches, diagonally arranged cameras, and well, that’s it. As users, we must appreciate that they have reduced the gap between Pro and regular models. However, give or take, except a few millimetres, the shape…
