Intent or Deadline? - Dinesh Bhandari

Are you working with intent or just for the deadline?

When you work with intent, you know why you have picked it up, you aspire to achieve something at the end of it. you might not know the exact outcome but you know you intend to get to that. It’s important to take a step back and reflect on the purpose behind your work, especially when you’re caught up in a cycle of deadlines. By reminding yourself of why you started on this path in the first place, you can regain a sense of motivation and focus on what truly matters.

Don’t let the goal get blurry for you might completely misplace it and get lost in a vicious cycle of incomplete expectations. Purpose doesn’t always have to be a glorious one.It can simply mean what you want to achieve in your everyday life. The small wins. Productivity should be purposeful rather than just being for the sake of it. But this doesn’t close the window for spontaneity. What we rather remember is that to be spontaneous is to fulfill your purpose but with the thrill of achieving something new, at the same time.

Every now and then remind yourself what is the intent behind doing something you plan to do, for, it is easier to be responsible when you know the purpose behind your engagements.

Pride: Personal Identity, Social Movement and a Tale of Oppression - Shaleen Shukla

  An opinionated piece probably exceeding thousand words about Pride from a hetero-cis guy is the last thing anyone, including myself would want to read. But it is necessary when you are expected to write a discourse piece for The Weekly Edge. On a more serious note, it is also indicative of the lack of representation of queer people across the board. Our club is one that takes immense pride in standing by the LGBTQ+ community as staunch, outspoken representatives and allies. And yet, the fabled ‘Seat at the Table’ for the queer community remains unoccupied, in our organization and in all others. I had the chance to listen to Emma D’Arcy, who plays Rhaenyra in HBO’s House of the Dragon, talking about the struggles she faced while coming out as non binary. Juggling her acting career, her gender identity and her moral choices. And I was constantly in awe of the sheer strength and character she had displayed through all those circumstances. There are a lot of examples, stories and l...

Quantum Computing: The Inception of an Enigmatic Era - Rogini Varshni

The moment we hear the term “Quantum” we often consider it a jargon that most of us have heard of but never bothered to interpret. Not just the general public, but even the scientists find it difficult to truly understand the science this term entails. Regardless, it has demonstrated a whole new perspective to comprehend our universe. “ Quantum Science” is the study of how the tiniest parts of the universe, like atoms and particles, behave in ways that seem strange and unpredictable. It looks at things like how particles can be in two places at once or instantly affect each other even when they're far apart. Evolving from Physics in the early twentieth century, it finds its application in various disciplines across Science and Technology.  One such field where it is playing a crucial role is “Quantum Computing”. Quantum science has revolutionized computing by introducing quantum computers, which use the unique properties of particles to perform complex calculations much faster tha...
