What do you do in the face of uncertainty? Get more certainty.
And probably the best way to do that is to try working on things you're interested in. That will get you more information about how interested you are in them, how good you are at them, and how much scope they offer for ambition.
Don't wait. Don't wait till the end of college to figure out what to work on. Don't even wait for internships during college. You don't necessarily need a job doing x in order to work on x; often you can just start doing it in some form yourself. And since figuring out what to work on is a problem that could take years to solve, the sooner you start, the better.
One useful trick for judging different kinds of work is to look at who your colleagues will be. You'll become like whoever you work with. Do you want to become like these people?
Indeed, the difference in character between different kinds of work is magnified by the fact that everyone else is facing the same decisions as you. If you choose a kind of work mainly for how well it pays, you'll be surrounded by other people who chose it for the same reason, and that will make it even more soul-sucking than it seems from the outside. Whereas if you choose work you're genuinely interested in, you'll be surrounded mostly by other people who are genuinely interested in it, and that will make it extra inspiring.
The other thing you do in the face of uncertainty is to make choices that are uncertainty-proof. The less sure you are about what to do, the more important it is to choose options that give you more options in the future. I call this "staying upwind." If you're unsure whether to major in math or economics, for example, choose math; math is upwind of economics in the sense that it will be easier to switch later from math to economics than from economics to math.
Walmart-owned ecommerce major may pilot in Bengaluru by mid-2026, weighing standalone app versus ONDC route as Zomato and Swiggy dominate the market.
The move would pitch the Walmart-owned ecommerce major directly against Zomato and Swiggy in a market estimated at $9 billion in FY25 and projected to grow to $25 billion by FY30, according to Jefferies. For Flipkart, the stakes go beyond food — it is preparing for a public listing and is seeking new growth engines.
Flipkart had previously explored entering food delivery through ONDC about two years ago, alongside peers such as Ola and Paytm, but that plan did not move beyond initial discussions.
India’s food delivery market has sharply consolidated over the past few years. Zomato and Swiggy dominate the space after a series of exits by smaller players. Outside India and China, brokerages note, most major markets have stabilised into three or four operators, often led by a single dominant player.

Hey everyone, I’m currently the head of management for college projects and events, which basically means I live inside group chats, Google Docs, and endless notifications. Every project feels the same: 20 people, five tools, and constant context switching just to stay aligned. Slack feels too heavy, Notion too distant, and somewhere between chats and docs, work gets lost.
One night after spending hours just trying to track updates across different apps, it hit me:-

Seedance 2.0
The government has rolled out new rules for AI content, banning illegal and harmful material while requiring clear labelling and traceable identifiers to curb misuse.
Companies are required to ensure that they do not permit the creation, publishing, or dissemination of AI-generated content that is barred under BNS, POCSO, or other laws.
Under the rules, companies are barred from permitting AI-generated content involving child sexual abuse, or material that is obscene, vulgar, or sexually explicit. They must also prevent the creation of false documents and the development or generation of explosives.
The rules mandate that AI-generated content be clearly and prominently labelled, with the label easily noticeable and adequately perceivable. Companies must also embed a unique identifier to trace the computer resource used to create, generate, or modify such content, and must not allow the AI label to be removed or altered.

Not long ago, talking about medical weight loss felt awkward. The discussion on whether it’s a “last resort” or how detox teas, inspirational quotes, and before-and-after photos drown them out has changed since then. Nowadays, GLP-1 medications are being advertised everywhere — including social media and blogs, as well as medical channels and communication platforms.
Looking at platforms like GLP-1 Direct, Lean Clinic, TrimRX, and Anchor (AnchorMD), you can see a bigger conversation forming about what weight loss should actually look like in 2026.
This isn’t a product roundup. It’s a discussion about direction.
First Question: Should Weight Loss Be a Product or a Process?
This is where Lean Clinic draws a clear line.
The philosophy behind the Lean Clinic is to utilize both medical and behavioral treatments for weight loss, relying on long-term success rather than a quick fix. While there may be some level of reliance on medication (weight loss drugs or GLP-1s), coaching and developing a new set of habits as well as having a physician provide ongoing supervision are also included in the treatment of patients who want to lose weight. This approach has an almost unfashionable tone as a part of the overall philosophy of the Lean Clinic method.
The underlying question posed by the Lean Clinic is; if GLP-1s (weight loss drugs) may work, should we also provide education on how people can live without relying upon them (GLP-1s) indefinitely?
This will appeal to those who lost weight but have witnessed it gradually returning.
On the Other End: Efficiency, Speed, and Modern Life
Then there’s AnchorMD, which feels built for the reality most of us actually live in.
Busy schedules. Limited patience. A desire for results without endless check-ins or wellness jargon.
Anchor strips the experience down to what some users want most:
a real doctor
a clear medical decision
flat pricing
fast follow-up
No lifestyle preaching. No community forums. Just medically supervised treatment that fits between meetings.
The unspoken question Anchor raises is: Is it wrong to want weight loss care that works like modern software?
For many people, the answer is no.
The Cost Conversation We Can’t Ignore
This is where TrimRXcomes into play, and probably breaks the current narrative.
GLP-1 medications are very successful, however the cost of their brand name does not allow a large segment of people to access them. TrimRX offers an alternative to the cost of brand name medications by providing compounded versions at less expensive rates, along with real medical supervision and support.
Supporters see this as democratization.
Critics worry about commodification.
Both sides have a point.
The existence of TrimRx illustrates a broader issue in the healthcare field: if a treatment significantly improves health outcomes, should it only be available to those who can afford to pay for it in a premium fashion? TrimRx’s the answer is ‘no’ — and they back the assertion using physician involvement, continuous monitoring, and an emphasis on transparency of pricing.
Before Any of That: The Trust Problem
Here’s the thing no one likes to admit: a lot of people don’t trust this space yet. And honestly, that’s fair.
That’s why GLP-1 Direct matters, even though it doesn’t prescribe anything. It plays a quieter role—researching providers, comparing options, and exposing differences in pricing, service quality, and standards.
In a market moving this fast, directories like this act as friction—and friction isn’t always bad. Sometimes it’s what prevents people from making rushed or expensive mistakes.
GLP-1 Direct is essentially asking: Shouldn’t informed choice come before treatment?
So… Is This Progress?
Maybe. But it’s not a clean story.
What we experience are not one "correct" model but many competing ideas of how to achieve successful weight loss. Examples include:
- Transformation of your whole lifestyle
- Using weight loss medications for medical purposes to lose weight effectively
- Easy access to medications for weight loss as a form of treatment
- Making informed decisions about weight loss through personal research and historical context.
That’s how we see the world around us: Messy and very human.
GLP-1 Pearls (Medications) are not at the core of the evolution of this area but what is at the core of this change is how people can finally talk about biology, behaviours, money, time and expectations. Each of these platforms offers users different solutions for the same universally recognised, uncomfortable reality about weight loss; it is a multi-dimensinal space and ignoring that fact has never produced a good outcome.
As this industry matures into a responsible industry or into just another cycle of hype will be determined by how carefully the companies and consumers interact with GLP-1 Pearls.
And for once, that feels like the right discussion to be having.

India is hosting its first major AI event — the India AI Impact Summit 2026 — in New Delhi between February 16 and 20, bringing together global technology leaders, including Open AI CEO Sam Altman, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Bill Gates, and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei alongside key Indian business figures like Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani, Nandan Nilekani, and more, as per the summit’s website.
The Indian government is hopeful that the upcoming summit will cement India’s status as a destination for large-scale AI investment. The country’s IT minister said in a recent interview that the event could help attract as much as $100 billion in investment. The federal government is also pushing domestic startups to build smaller models for local use cases, eventually reducing reliance on U.S.-based systems.
- Revenue down 15%
- Loss driven by Rs 575 Cr domicile shift Rs 771 Cr directors benefit cost
Dream Sports, the parent of Dream11, saw its operating scale decline 15% in FY25 and reported a net loss of Rs 479 crore for the year ended March 2025. This appears to be a rare loss for the Mumbai-based company, which was steered by a one-time tax cost of Rs 575 crore (tax) arising from the cross-border merger of Dream Sports INC and India’s Sporta Technologies, along with Rs 771 crore cost, which were booked against directors' benefits.

Government to launch facility soon with aim to boost renewable energy
The govt is set to launch a facility that will allow consumers to directly buy and sell electricity among themselves, with the amount adjusted in their monthly power bills.
Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading under the India Energy Stack (IES) will enable electricity consumers and prosumers — consumers who also generate power through renewable sources such as rooftop solar — to trade surplus renewable energy directly with other consumers, including across state boundaries. The transactions will be facilitated through a trust-based digital framework to ensure a secure, verifiable and scalable P2P energy network.
While the buyer will need a smart electricity meter, the seller must have a rooftop solar plant and a net meter to trade surplus energy. The two parties will be able to negotiate prices through a mobile application and complete the transaction. Officials said consumers will continue to receive their regular electricity bills and P2P energy trades will be reflected as cumulative adjustments within the discom billing system for both buyers and sellers. They added that the system will help prosumers easily sell surplus electricity, while buyers will get power at rates cheaper than those charged by distribution companies.
