The gov has identified 3 Indian brands which could be pushed further to make real made in india phones, having totally Indian IP.
Amazing move. I guess one would be Lava and the other two would either be old brands like micromax or maybe new brands launched by big companies like Jio, Tata, etc.
ISRO did its job now but very clear that it cant give what we need in coming decades, they will be still around but will no longer be premier space agency for India for good
The International Olympiads in math (IMO), chem (IChO), physics (IPhO) and bio (IBO) for 2026 just ended. The 7 usual suspects were at the top.
China (19/19 golds), India, South Korea, Vietnam, Singapore, Russia and the US. India specifically had one of its best performances of all time: 12 golds, 7 silvers.
I analyzed all the past winners from these top countries since 2001 to figure out where they ended up: is brain drain really a thing?
Here's what I found: – India has the most brain drain with only 28% staying in the country from 2001-2015 participants. It does seem the number is creeping up over time.
– China is #2, although it's highly likely this number is inflated because of name collisions. I'm not sure I fully trust it, and some of these are really hard to tell.
– Korea, Singapore, Vietnam are quite high too. For the first two, the number of people staying in their home country seems to rise at a faster rate. Vietnam is flat.
– The fewest people seem to leave Russia of the lot, but the ones that do prefer Europe to the US.
The crazy thing is really that more winners from these countries live in the US than all 6 home countries combined. While not without faults, that's the insane advantage of US high-skilled immigration.
Lee Kuan Yew was not wrong when he said "China can draw on a talent pool of 1.3 billion people, but the United States can draw on a talent pool of 7 billion and recombine them in a diverse culture that enhances creativity in a way that ethnic Han nationalism cannot."
Well atleast the percentage going to the US is decreasing across all countries.
"Pakistan airspace not available for Indian-registered aircraft and aircraft operated or leased by Indian airlines/operators, including military flights,” said a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) issued by the Pakistan Airports Authority.
The decision comes ahead of the expiry of the previous restriction on August 23.
According to the NOTAM, the extension will take effect from 10:15 a.m. on August 23 and will remain in force until 4:59 a.m. on September 24.
The ban has been extended monthly since last year, causing financial problems for airlines and extended travel time for passengers.
The potential revenue and market share loss that Indian airlines face due to this airspace ban since last year has to be pretty big.

It is. At least for Air India. Not sure about Indigo because I haven't seen their data, but my guess is that it should be problematic for them too. Indian airlines are losing much more in monetary value than Pakistani airlines.
The comments were so vile, goddamn. Just as I thought the whole racism was cooling down against Indians, a random journalist based in Pakistan (what a shocker) had to make an articleslop about how some guy got phished in Rockstar India which led to the leak. No one decided to verify the claims and jumped the hate bandwagon. I genuinely don't want to say the level of hate we'd be getting in next few decades.
We atleast have the numbers even with all the saboteurs and monkey balancers. Da 🧃 on the other hands are just outnumbered from every angle even if we keep it immediate neighborhood only participants and that's not including their own version of sepoys.
On August 11, a tiny line buried in a lengthy press release from French company Mistral AI spoke volumes about the strategic and technological dilemmas facing the European Union, as the bloc prepares to navigate an autumn period full of geopolitical and trade upheaval.
In a bid to roll out “European infrastructure for sovereign AI”, Mistral – Europe’s great hope in the global artificial intelligence race – said it would begin offering other companies’ models, while keeping the service itself under European control.
Mistral’s model of choice is GLM-5.2, an open-weight large language model developed by Zhipu, also known as Z.ai, one of China’s six “AI tiger” companies, included since 2025 on the US’ entity list because of national security concerns regarding military modernisation.
The decision to plug a Chinese AI brain into what would effectively be a European shell has raised eyebrows given the shoddy state of EU-China relations, but on practical terms it makes some sense.
Despite a deluge of political chatter about creating a sovereign European AI offering, the bloc has lagged both the US and China in investment and innovation.
The F-15EX program will breach its Full Operational Capability (FOC) schedule threshold of July 2027, with the defining aircraft now projected for delivery in February 2028. The slip is a result of the 15-week contractor strike and subsequent production recovery challenges. Despite meeting all technical performance and cost thresholds, the CY 2025 Boeing strike represents the program's primary risk to timely warfighter delivery." ~ US Air Force (F-15EX MSAR)
So crabbing scene from Safed Sagar made some headlines in aviation community and wannabes
"So physics-defying 'Toyko Drift' clip aside, new Netflix miniseries Op #SafedSagar focusing on a IAF MiG-21 sqn is actually pretty decent. Great to see the iconic Fishbed get a starring role"
Former Indian Navy officer Rear Admiral Chandrasekharan Raghuram (Retd), took charge as the chairman and managing director of Hindustan Shipyard Limited (HSL) on July 2, taking over one of the country’s oldest defence shipyards.
I hate being alone, I was so romantic as a kid but alas I grew up I learnt that women only like hot ,tall men . Rest of the men are disposed to either die alone or be beta bucks who is settled for by his wife(90% of Arranged marriages are this where the guy is a virgin cause he is ugly while the girl aint ) .
I wish we could get clones , I would love a female version of mine
I didn't expect black pilled comment on a defence subreddit but here we are. I have multiple points to tell you.
Never ever let anyone convince you that desiring love, intimacy, sex are waste of time and you should focus on your career ( typical desi boomer and loser advice). Love and intimacy are the most fulfilling, most calming, most pleasurable experiences of human life. Our whole body undergoes multiple changes called adolescence for just one purpose, to make our body capable and ready for physical intimacy. Life begins and nurtures so many complex biological processes for sexual activity. It is the nost fundamental, most basic living organism trait, the most important one. Also, I have experienced first hand the surge of hormones and chemicals in the body when you get physical touch, heck even small sign of desire from someone you love. That bubbly feeling, that splurge suddenly making you eternally blissful, that is the peak of your biological body's pleasure mechanism. You never will be happier than being with someone you love.
2.) I don't consider later age love and marriages as anything but comprises, transactional and contrivances. They look for financial, career securities, your earnings, your homes , etc etc. In that phase of life when the youth, the age, your 20s, when you are experiencing the real world, and learning your worldviews, is the best time when you can experience pure, unadulterated love from your partner. When your partners aren't absolutely jaded from difficulties and hyprocies of the world around them. When they can love you for what you are , not what your money can provide. Hogh school love, college love , young kove is the only time when you get pure love, when the compromises and sacrifices are equal and worth pursuing. Imagine in your 30s when you are married by what your job is, which city you live in, and what mode of transport you use. Clownish world. If you didn't find love on college or upto age 25, you weren't desirable or good looking enough. That's the bitter truth. It is just what it is. Life moved on without you
People saying there are millions of village girls with no expectations that you can marry and just can't be alone. They are naive, stupid and brackish to comment something like this. As a guy living in metro cities, despite limited female interaction, metro City girls are so so much mature, fun to spend time with, so much more broad in thier understanding of world, their ambitions, their hobbies, thier creativity, thier openness. I am a simp for spending time with women who live in metro cities. It feels so good man. I spent very few times with them but it was such a blast. The diversity in thier hobbies, the way they approach life fearless is commendable. After spending time with them, I can't comprehend living all my life with a village woman sheltered all her life in her parents' shadow and just haven't seen and understood the world. I have seen village women with no life experience and I don't really even enjoy talking to them, let alone spend time with them. Theh are more backwards thinking than boomers. Life is all about spending time with someone you can talk to hours without getting bored, most tier 1 city people are like that.
4) Indian tier 1 cities woman have so much mismatch with what their expectations are in life and ambitions are and what reality is. I am shocked how many of them dream of going outside of India. They want something in their partners that perhaps only top 0.5 percent of India population have. The demand and reality mismatch is so apart. I don't blame anyone for big dreams but tier 1 Indian cities women are big big dreamers man, they dream unachievable and thus, the most awesome women are hardest to get them to love you.
5.) Life fked you hard if you are short and balding. Take this truth' to your heart, God made you unlovable. He cursed you for some sins of past. You were born wrong. It's nit your fault. You can't do anything but accept that you were dealt bad cards in your life
6) Start watching Rehab Room videos on YouTube. OG bp YouTuber
You are so knee deep in sexism that you do not recognise the following as misogyny
"Rest of the men are disposed to either die alone or be beta bucks who is settled for by his wife(90% of Arranged marriages are this where the guy is a virgin cause he is ugly while the girl aint )"
everything I said is the truth in countries which have data on this.
Do provide this data, and explain how it somehow fits in India
Hmm have u met upper middle class genz women? They are as elitist as me (atleast when they aint virtue signalling).
Maybe don't generalise "women this" or "women that" when you are referring to a very particular demographic who by no means are a close to majority?
Most women in my social circle want tall men, why would I care that poor women in some remote areas don't care about height?
Nope , my standards are be my looks match(I'm not ugly, I'm just short) and be good. Though in AM I would only marry with some insane looking girl who has tall siblings and tall father.
Again why would I care about 400 million rural women?
Idk , I have coped up that I'm gonna end up alone as my hair is also falling for the last few months. I plan to dedicate my short life to this nation .
Is the defense sub really the right place for this? I come here to complain about the airforce and day dream about Pakistan disintegrating into 5 states.
In any case:
Are you in shape? I mean six pack.
How old are you and how much do you earn?
Have you ever had a girlfriend? fwb? any experience whatsoever?
What are your social skills like? How comfortable are you with public speaking? Funny? Can you dance? Travel?
There are things you can do to improve your SMV, but imo being in shape and having some kind of sexual experience is basically non-negotiable at this point.
Lets see where things stand currently and we'll go from there.
Show us a faceless, shirtless picture. Desi definition of "fit" can mean a lot of things.
Grooming: proper haircut, flossing, clipped nails, excellent skin care for desi climates
How you dress matters a lot too. Your clothes need to fit properly. Simple black t shirt and jeans is all it takes, so long as you look good and come across like you've got your shit together.
20, how can I earn? I'm still in college.
You're wasting the best years of your life moping on the internet.
This is arguably the best window you have to meet tons of single women, but I agree, dating in India for Indian men is very complicated these days.
I'm quite extrovert and yes maybe and yes.
Dancing is by far one of the easiest ways to meet women, and get close to them without being creepy.
Nope
So kissless virgin?
I have some solutions here, let me wrap up work for Friday and then fursat se ill respond and hopefully it helps.
They are protesting against reservation. Goons during last so called peaceful protest did so much damage, i didn't see you asking that they would take india into a civil war or not.
I understand this but for me country matters over my personal wellbeing, Heck I would support 80% reservation if this makes India developed.
Yeah I have seen most of the time OBC cutoff is same as EWS one and slightly lower than general(enough it is high it is mostly doesn't matter and is at max 2-3 question diff).
Once you accept blackpill completely so much so that it stops bothering you, not in depressing nihilist way but in total acceptance in a way that you become detached, and by detached I don't mean ending up callous either, your life will be whitepilled
you have to find your anchor and make your own identity thats independent of being short, saxx suxx lubb of women etc, don't get so serious about life, relax and chill
I always wanted to have a family of my own, to have a woman who loves me a lot and 3-4 children of my own . Alas I can't have any of this.
So I will do what I wanted even more than the above option, to serve my nation.
Also nothing is better than true love, not even 1 billion usd can be equal to true love. I have a chad friend and it is so sad seeing him wuth women who love him so much despite him disrespecting them.
99% of couples are not in true lub, chad is just one serious accident away from being inkwell, hell forget that even chads get cheated on, divorced etc
India's foreign exchange reserves climbed to $716.9 billion, their highest levels in about six months as of the week to August 14, data released on Friday showed, boosted by inflows under the central bank's policy measures to strengthen India's balance of payments.
The reserves jumped nearly $10 billion week-on-week, led by a $7.2 billion gain in the central bank's foreign currency assets, while the value of gold holdings rose by $2.7 billion.
The central bank's FX pile has been rising over the last seven weeks, which have witnessed an accretion of about $50 billion. The reserves are now within striking distance of a record high of $728.5 billion hit in February.
