Why Elon Musk's move to charge for using X may be a good, disruptive thing
Elon Musk formally purchased Twitter for an eye-watering $44 billion. Since then, he has removed the old guard, changed the name of the corporation to X Corp, relaxed certain content moderation rules to ostensibly make it a more equitably vocal public square, and introduced a premium membership called X Blue for about $8 a month that enables subscribers to write longer posts and garner greater visibility. It is uncertain if Musk made those decisions in haste.

Reducing cut-off percentile for NEET PG 2023 will increase pool of qualifying candidates: Health ministry
Union Health Ministry officials on Friday said reducing the qualifying percentile for NEET PG 2023 to zero will increase the pool of qualifying candidates but not dilute the merit system for admission to PG medical courses. Only those scoring the highest marks will get admission for PG medical courses, they said. The admission will be done through a transparent counselling process and will do away with alleged backdoor entry that was offered by some private colleges, the officials said. They dismissed as imaginary the speculation that students with zero percentile can also become specialist doctors. The reality is that students with the highest marks will be eligible for admission to their choice of courses and colleges, they said. There are 68,142 PG medical seats in the country. Till now, candidates scoring above 50 percentile were eligible to participate in the counselling process for medical PG admission through NEET.
