From Moradabad to Apple’s Global Stage: Sabih Khan Becomes the New COO of Apple
Apple’s new Chief Operating Officer (COO) Sabih Khan—an Indian-origin executive originally from Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh—has been appointed to oversee iPhone manufacturing, especially in India. After over 30 years at Apple, he succeeds Jeff Williams in a strategic move by CEO Tim Cook. This milestone highlights Apple’s commitment to continuing iPhone production in India amid global trade pressures and ambitions of sustainable growth. Born in Moradabad in 1966, Khan later lived in Singapore and then moved to the U.S. for higher education, earning degrees in mechanical engineering and economics from Tufts University and a master’s from RPI. He joined Apple in 1995 and climbed the ranks—from procurement to Senior Vice President of Operations—playing crucial roles in green manufacturing, logistics, and global supply chain management. Tim Cook praised him as “a brilliant strategist” and trusted his leadership to shape Apple’s future. Apple expects India’s share in its global iPhone production to grow significantly under his leadership.

Alone in space
The Verdant Starship log_721: Earth was destroyed years ago, it's been almost a decade now. In that time, me and my crew have been travelling through space, looking for planets to inhabit. We have over a thousand years worth of rations, the Verdant is a massive ship, one that can hold a huge number of exactly 101 people. However, only 31 of us ever got onboard back in 2025. Now that it is 2034, there are only 27 of us left. Four of us died, one or two committed suicide because life in space is hopeless [once you get over how beautiful the stars in space are]. Jamie was lost in space, after taking an expedition outside our ship to repair the antenna [which we believed was crucial in making contact with other human starships] his cable snapped under in some freak accident, when a collection of comet sped right past him, they knocked the poor man off balance completely, sending him spinning wildly into the darkness of space, never to been seen or heard of again. We couldn't risk reaching out to save him, our numbers were already running thin. That happened roughly six or eight years ago, back when we still hoped we weren't alone in space. Unfortunately it seems Jamie's sacrifice was completely in vain, despite fixing the antenna, we received no contact with other humans whatsoever, not even echoes from the long distant past, it was just static and sometimes we convinced ourselves there were voices, but deep down we knew that was wishful thinking and our imaginations trying to cheer us up, I suppose. The fourth member of the Verdant crew died recently, he was my brother, Zack Hayter, the only reason I kept going to be honest. Zack was my older sibling, by 3 years exactly. By the time we both reached our 30's the 3 year difference didn't matter too much, but especially as kids, he was always my older mentor. We went to the same schools together, he introduced me to the older kids back then, it was so cool having friends a lot bigger and wiser than my peers. Me and Zack were far closer than best friends or even lovers, we may have been even closer than most brothers. Because me and him always played the same video games together, we attended the same music concerts, festivals and events. We did everything together, even shared the same girlfriends, some might call that a bit creepy, but we did. Zack ended his own life, just like Francis and Rebecca did, all because he saw no hope or future for humanity. "We're all fucked, brother." He said, "Forever isolated and lost in a dark vacuum of never ending stars, not a single one of them inhabitable. We're already dead." I tried to stop him, beg him to keep on going, to keep living, but he said I should join him, that maybe there was an afterlife. One better than this. I had done almost everything with Zack, but killing myself was the one and only thing I couldn't do. Not even for my own flesh and blood brother. He overdosed on sleeping pills, ending his life somewhat peacefully, falling asleep and then never waking up. I only hope he had one last final, sweet dream. Maybe of heaven or perhaps of earth.
