The Berlin-based corruption vigilante Transparency International (TI) has ranked India 76 out of 168 countries in its latest Corruption Perception Index. The same rank is shared with six other countries: Brazil, Burkina Faso, Thailand, Tunisia and Zambia. Interestingly, India's neighbour Pakistan is a long way away at 117.<\/p>
India has been struggling with corruption from the very beginning; with the common citizens bearing the most brunt of it. Whether it is the small bribe paid to a constable or the bigger bribes one has to pay to get basic services at government offices, it is the common citizen who always is on the receiving (or rather giving) end of corruption. Various governments have tried countless methods to curtail it with little to no success; with the latest venture being this demonitization. Regardless of the governments, every Indian dreams of a utopian scenario where corruption. India achieving soon this is more important for present students, as it will be their country soon.<\/p>
Nevertheless, we can take tiny consolation in the fact that we are not from one of these most corrupt countries listed below.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481267718609","data":"
1. Somalia<\/b><\/p>
Somalia is the most corrupt country in the world, with the country's economy majorly dominated by private sector.

2. North Korea<\/b><\/p>
Not surprisingly, the most militarized country - North Korea is the second most corrupt country in the world. The country is notorious for having very little electricity and sending its citizens to prison camps. The government is known for squandering away all the money on military; with most North Korea\u2019s government and economy highly shrouded in mystery.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481275063265","data":"584a76e32698c"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481268235020","data":"

The situation has been worse in the last 30 years; with extensive heroin smuggling; which in-turn breeds a lot of corruption.

It's been a matter of great pain for fans of HBO's hit Game of Thrones that the eighth season of the show is not releasing in 2018 this time around, but April 2019, and we cannot imagine the plight of the book readers who've been waiting for The Winds of Winter, the sixth book in the series after the launch of A Dance with Dragons in 2011. While we here at stuMagz can't fill the void Game of Thrones leaves in your life, we can relate the types of students you see in Engineering to Game of Thrones characters. <\/p>

As 90s kids, we have a great sense of pride in having watched best cartoons like DuckTales, Swat Kats, Flintstones and more; while silently cringing every time we see present-day kids watch pathetic excuses for cartoons. <\/p>
Those were the days when cartoons and kids films were perhaps made with the presumption that 90s kids are the last generation with common sense. We've grown up and we now look back fondly at memes of these cartoons on social media and whenever a reboot is announced like this, we go crazy, literally.

Entrepreneur and Visionary Elon Musk first proposed the idea of Hyperloop Technology and then made it open source, to see if various companies and startups can use the design and build his idea into a reality. One such company, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, has now submitted a proposal to build a test track between the cities of Mumbai and Pune. The Chairman, Bibop Gabirele Gresta, has formally submitted a request with the Minister of Road Transport, Highways and Shipping Nitin Gadkari. Here are some interesting facts about the Hyperloop technology.<\/p>
1) It is cheaper than the cost required to build a bullet train<\/b><\/p>
While the initial infrastructure to make this technology a reality is expensive, the costs to set up and maintain the Hyperloop are much lower than the cost it takes to build and maintain a bullet train. <\/p>

2) Making the design Open Source Gives an opportunity to startups.<\/b><\/p>
Musk clearly hasn't forgotten where he came from, and by making the design open source, not only does Musk encourage various startups, but he also gets to focus on his SpaceX program and building Tesla Motors. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481105911633","data":"5847e21f63a31"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481102789752","data":"
3) Hyperloop's design requires a long low pressure tube.<\/b><\/p>
The design of the Hyperloop is such that, in layman's terms, the tube is suspended just mere inches off the walls, that is to say, it floats in the space inside the tube. A very futuristic design.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481103045005","data":"5847e1f08fa94"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481103047177","data":"
4) Startups in various countries are already planning routes.<\/b><\/p>
Since the tech was made Open Source, many companies in the United States and Europe have taken it upon themselves to build a test route as soon as possible. There are routes being planned in Poland by the company Hyper Poland, and another routes being planned between major European cities. <\/b><\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481103233460","data":"5847e0642e317"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481103235413","data":"
5) Hyperloop will be completely self sustainable.<\/b><\/p>
The technology that powers the compressor needed to run the Hyperloop tubes will be solar powered, with the tubes lined with Solar Panels and energy storage capacitors so that it doesn't loose efficiency or power even under cloudy conditions. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481103421224","data":"5847e0862f6de"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481103431478","data":"
6) Hyperloop's design requires it to travel only in a straight line. <\/b><\/p>
The tech by design is a rapid mode of transportation, sometimes accelerating to more speed than a human can handle, and as such, the tubes need to be in a straight path to avoid any untoward accidents.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481103589811","data":"5847e0ca1216d"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481103592292","data":"
7) The tech requires pods to be spaced 5 miles apart.<\/b><\/p>
While there are emergency brakes for each pod, the design requires the pods to be spaced 5 miles apart from each other, with one pod leaving every 30 seconds, and the space between the tube and the pod being small enough to stop pods easily in case of an emergency.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481103920124","data":"5847e293dd0ef"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481103923046","data":"
8) The Hyperloop pods will be designed using Dense Aluminium<\/b><\/p>
The train would be comprised of durable aluminum pods that would contain skis with a durable SpaceX alloy called Inconel. The acceleration speeds were a concern but the element encased in this element to handle high pressure and heat.<\/b><\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481104046749","data":"5847e29b9faa7"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481104049142","data":"
9) There is no definite date on its first test run.<\/b><\/p>
While there are various companies trying to make this technology a reality, there is no definite date when the world will see this tech in use. The high cost of implementation is a deterrent to many, but those who are in the field, are inching closer to their goal day by day. Here is hoping India gets to see this soon. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481104419573","data":"5847e2d043fd4"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1481104421397","data":"
10) Elon Musk believes Hyperloop to be the transport mode of choice on Mars.<\/b><\/p>
It's not a secret that Elon Musk's true love is Space Exploration. His plans for starting a colony on Mars also involves planning cities and it's mode of transport. The natural atmosphere of Mars ensures that the Hyperloop tubes will not be required to build the mode of transport on Mars! <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1481106119823","data":"5847e2ebc2537"}]
