Good Tech: How two NUS grads built an AI study tool for struggling students

Water infrastructure ran on one logic for decades: when demand grows, build more. Climate volatility is forcing a rethink. On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks with Dr. Beverley Stinson, AECOM's Executive Vice President and Global Water Leader, to learn how digital tools, predictive analytics, and smarter asset management are reshaping the way utilities plan, invest, and operate, and why the next dollar may not go into concrete at all.

Singapore is one of the most densely populated places on Earth, and one of the most liveable. But as the city continues to grow, can it stay that way?

In this wide-ranging edition of Viewpoint,Second Minister for National Development Indranee Rajah joins Lynlee Foo to discuss how Singapore is planning for an increasingly uncertain future. From climate resilience and energy security to the next generation of regional centres such as Jurong Lake District and Long Island, the conversation explores what it will take to keep Singapore liveable, resilient and competitive in the decades ahead. Along the way, she explains why Singapore gave up prime CBD land for Gardens by the Bay — so the city could "breathe."

Many of us are quick to show compassion when someone else is hurting. But when it comes to our own feelings, the response is often very different. We tell ourselves to move on, toughen up, or stop making such a big deal out of things.

Why do we dismiss experiences that genuinely affect us? Why do we compare our struggles to other people's and decide we have no right to feel hurt?

On Is It Just Me?, Lynlee Foo and Alexandra Parada explore why we're often harder on ourselves than we are on others, and where the line lies between resilience and simply brushing things aside. Featuring insights from Mavis Long, Founder and Principal Clinical Psychologist at Turning Grey Skies Blue Psychology Practice.
