CEOs are letting up on the battle to get employees to return to the office full-time, five days a week, according to a CEO survey from The Conference Board. Just 4% of US CEOs and 4% of CEOs worldwide say they will prioritize bringing workers back to the office full time, the survey found. Toward the latter half of 2023, major companies announced they were getting stricter on office work — but notably didn’t announce a full return. An EY US survey of C-suite corporate leaders found that full-time remote work plummeted from 34% in 2022 to just 1% in 2023. The study also noted that hybrid work is “firmly established.”CEOs will have to approach hybrid work at an industry-by-industry level, Scott said.

Populist Javier Milei, a libertarian economist and self-described “anarcho-capitalist,” won a presidential runoff election on Sunday with 55.7% of the vote. He said Monday that he would move quickly to privatize the country's state-owned media outlets and look to do the same with other public companies. “Everything that can be in the hands of the private sector will be in the hands of the private sector,” Milei told Bueno Aires station Radio Mitre. Experts immediately questioned how far Milei would get in fulfilling that vision without the support of Argentina's National Congress, where his party holds a relatively small share of seats. Monday was a public holiday in Argentina so financial markets weren’t open, but the stocks of Argentine companies that trade in New York soared.

In one, reproduced with eerie accuracy in the new season of “The Crown,” Diana, the Princess of Wales sits on a diving board off the deck of a yacht, her long legs dangling above the water. The sixth and final season of “The Crown” begins here, in 1997, on the cusp of one of the strangest and most bewildering periods in recent British history. Diana was just 36, and her death sent Britain into a paroxysm of grief at her loss and rage against the royal family. Over the last five seasons, “The Crown” has been unspooling decade by decade, producing an epic portrait of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, starting with her marriage to Prince Philip in 1947. The earlier episodes could sometimes feel quaint and far away, repackaged history from a semi-distant past.

On Facebook, Meta will start to nudge teen users to take time away from the app after 20 minutes. Instagram will add introduce a new nudge that suggests teens close Instagram if they’re scrolling Reels videos for too long during nighttime hours. Instagram, for example, has since introduced an educational hub for parents with resources, tips and articles from experts on user safety.

The fifth season of Netflix’s superb, ambitious “The Crown” covers the years from 1988 to early 1997, arguably the nadir of England’s modern monarchy. “The Crown” sets up series creator Peter Morgan to be a 21st- century Shakespeare for the Second Elizabethan era. “The Crown” sets up series creator Peter Morgan to be a 21st-century Shakespeare for the Second Elizabethan era. His retellings of royal life are no more accurate than “Richard II” or “Henry V,” making royal whining all these years later all the sillier. “The Crown” even finds ways to make Charles a sympathetic figure in the divorce, no small feat.

☆ „Trăiam în anul 2563 și pregăteam sarmale pentru studenții internaționali.” Diana Guranda, despre cum e să fii studentă în Portugalia, Thailanda și Peru

Mi-am dorit mult să studiez în capitală, pentru că acolo sunt mult mai multe oportunități și e un mediu mai deschis pentru oamenii din alte țări. Eu deja prinsesem gustul călătoriilor și aveam o mare curiozitate de a cunoaște și de a trăi cultura asiatică. Casa avea trei etaje și o mică grădină unde adesea priveam curioasă cum pasările colibri sărută florile, cumpăram și descopeream zilnic fructe exotice. Locuiam cu alți 1o studenți europeni din Spania, Italia, Elveția, Germania, Franța și o colegă din Venezuela. La moment, mă aflu în Portugalia și îmi finalizez masteratul, după care mi-aș dori mult să fac doctoratul sau cercetări științifice.
