Culdesac seems like a place where people can not only live car-free but also get to know their neighbors. Joey Hadden/Business InsiderAfter my visit to Culdesac, I chatted with Brad Biehl, a 24-year-old resident from Colombus, Ohio. "We're usually in environments where we walk from our door to our car and from the car into the place," Biehl said. Biehl added that he's optimistic about the future of Culdesac when more residents and retailers come in. "The number of serendipitous interactions that have taken place with the limited number of residents makes me super excited for what people will experience here."

Heart failure typically occurs as a result of another health condition, such as a heart attack, coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, or heart rhythm and valve abnormalities. Smoking, being overweight, eating foods high in fat and cholesterol, and living a sedentary lifestyle can contribute to heart failure because they increase the risk of developing heart conditions associated with it. Dancy is part of The American Heart Association's Go Red for Women Class of Survivors 2024. Although heart failure most commonly affects older people, it can happen at any age , as evidenced by Dancy's case. Dancy, an American Heart Association Go Red for Women 'Real Survivor' volunteer , wanted to share her story to help raise awareness of the signs of heart disease and ways to look after your heart health.

☆ Ancient human DNA suggests Columbus may not have brought syphilis to Europe after all

Read previewThe idea that Christopher Colombus brought back syphilis from the New World might be completely wrong. Interim Archives/Getty ImagesThe timing of the arrival of syphilis in Europe is suspiciousLooking at historical literature, you would think syphilis definitely arrived with the conquistadors. There was a big outbreak of syphilis in Europe in the late 1400s, mostly in harbor towns, seemingly out of the blue. AdvertisementThis suggests that the bones lesions alone don't guarantee that syphilis was present in South America before Columbus, poking holes in the evidence used to support the hypothesis. AdvertisementWith this ancient genome, Schünemann and colleagues were able to discover that the whole Treponema family is much older than had ever been expected.

Wendy's is automating its drive-through service and introducing an AI chatbot to take orders. The chatbot has been trained to recognize common abbreviations and lingo that customers use. The chatbot has been trained to recognize customers' lingo when they order items like burgers and fries from Wendy's menu. A spokesperson for Wendy's told Insider in a statement that because customers can fully customize their orders at Wendy's, it leads to multiple different order combinations. Since OpenAI launched its AI chatbot ChatGPT in November and became the fastest-growing consumer app in internet history, businesses have been deploying AI tools to streamline work and complete tasks more quickly.
☆ Drive Capital's Mark Kvamme is raising a fund that's like a sovereign wealth fund for Ohio, one month after stepping down from the $2.2 billion venture-capital firm he cofounded
  + stars: | 2022-11-16 | by ( Melia Russell | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
In October, Mark Kvamme said he was stepping down at Drive Capital, the venture firm he founded. The so-called Ohio Fund will raise money mostly from Ohio institutional investors, sources said. The new fund — whose working title is "Ohio Fund" — has drawn comparisons to a sovereign wealth fund, because Kvamme plans to raise capital from mostly Ohio institutions. Unlike the venture firm he founded, the Ohio Fund will invest in multiple asset classes, including other funds, public stocks, private companies in Ohio, and infrastructure, sources said. He stayed one year before striking out on his own with ambitions to start a venture firm.
