Many companies with remote or hybrid workforces use tracking software to monitor their workers. An MIT lecturer said tracking hours wasn't a good productivity measure. As office attendance and productivity tracking become increasingly common, more companies are using it to evaluate, discipline, and even fire employees. About three-quarters of respondents in the ResumeBuilder.com survey said they had fired employees based on findings from their tracking software. But if US companies are truly concerned about maximizing their employees' productivity, some of them may be doing it all wrong.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell had two recent health scares while at press conferences. The Capitol physician said McConnell may have just been dehydrated and didn't have a stroke. GOP Sen. Rand Paul, also a licensed physician, said he doesn't believe the physician's diagnosis. But on Tuesday afternoon, Paul, a licensed ophthalmologist, who graduated from Duke Medical School in 1988, told reporters he disagreed with the Capitol physician's findings.

AdvertisementAdvertisementAI is undermining the web's grand bargain, and a decades-old handshake agreement is the only thing standing in the way. Now, though, generative AI and large language models are changing the mission of web crawlers radically and rapidly. Without a supply of potential consumers, there's little incentive for content creators to let web crawlers continue to suck up free data online. It's also open to manipulation, especially given the voracious appetite for quality AI data. Because robots.txt is voluntary, web crawlers can also simply ignore the blocking instructions and siphon the information from a site anyway.

In a related blog post on how it uses data for generative AI, Meta says it collects public information on the web in addition to licensing data from other providers. Blog posts, for example, can include personal information, such as someone's name and contact information, Meta said. CNBC contacted Meta for information about whether that first-party information will continue to be used in training its generative AI models. Here's how you can delete some of your Facebook data used for training generative AI models:Go to the "Generative AI Data Subject Rights" form on Meta's privacy policy page about generative AI. The first option lets people access, download, or correct any of their personal information gleaned from third-party sources that's used to train generative AI models.

Two millennials who bought homes with friends say "houses before spouses" is the way to go. They bought a beach house, lake home, and ranch house with friends, which they use for vacations. Since then Modares has purchased eight properties with friends and family that have variously served as rental properties and primary residences. Modares and Douglass run a "buying with friends" minicourse to encourage clients to explore less-conventional real-estate partnerships.

US-Sino tensions help spawn China card game craze

[1/4] Amateur players take part in a competition of guandan, a poker-like card game, in Beijing, China August 13, 2023. Total U.S.-based venture-capital investment in China plummeted to $9.7 billion last year from $32.9 billion in 2021, PitchBook data shows. "In finance, information is currency," said Yang, for whom a game of guandan has become a standard gambit before wining and dining local officials. Yu Longze, a broker based in Beijing, said his boss this month ordered all staff to learn the game. In April, the ruling Communist Party's anti-graft watchdog censured one of its officials in the eastern province of Anhui for playing guandan during a training course, among other misdeeds.

Businesses in food and parcel delivery often rely on large numbers of gig-economy workers. The UK's data watchdog found some of these workers are propositioning customers. "People have the right to order a pizza [...] without then being asked for sex," a watchdog said. A growing number of firms, particularly in delivery, transport, or logistics, rely on gig economy or contract workers. One consequence is that sensitive customer information, such as phone numbers and addresses, is accessible to casual workers.

The full-time remote work the pandemic brought means she's been more available to her spouse, to her kids, and to just slow down a little bit. The messaging was shifting away from what a boon remote work was, and firms were saying instead that they needed people back in seats. Many, especially parents like Danielle, found themselves reconfiguring their lives around remote work and said it's been productive both professionally and personally. But for those thriving under remote work, firms' attempts — or orders —to get everyone back in has come as an unpleasant shock. Do you have strong feelings about remote work versus in-office work?

While it's uncommon, it's possible to save too much for retirement, financial planners say. If you're saving too much, you might notice you're consistently going over contribution limits. However, if you're saving too much, there are two sure signs. You're not meeting your other money goalsIf you're over-saving for retirement, it might mean that you're having trouble keeping up with your other goals. "More commonly what we see come up is [people] ignoring all of their other saving goals and only saving for retirement," says Walsh.

Renowned value investor Guy Spier weighed in on CNBC's Pro Talks on whether it's better to put your money in an S & P 500 index fund , in U.S. Treasurys , or in shares of Berkshire Hathaway for the long run. Asked whether he would invest in the S & P 500 or Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway stock for the rest of his life, Spier said the question poses a false choice that investors don't need to make. Rather than picking one over the other, Spier suggests dividing the investment 50-50 between the S & P 500 and Berkshire, then rebalancing positions at the end of each year. A small risky bet may be acceptable for an investor, if it represents a tiny percent of their overall portfolio. That compares to the S & P 500 ′s 8.2%, the MSCI World 's 6.9%, and the FTSE 100 ′s 3.6%.

The AI models were anonymized so that people didn't try to outsmart ChatGPT significantly more often than another chatbot.

May told Insider that being open about the challenges you're facing can make you a better leader. Leaders need to "take the wall down" so those under them can say what they need to perform best. Insider recently asked May about her work in HR and meeting the needs of the company's large employee base. But you also need to work for companies with leaders that really understand the challenges. But I think employers need to keep top of mind the needs of their people.

But further scrutiny revealed distinctive features: legs slightly longer than those of most domestic cats, and a striking black-tipped tail. I explored this question in my book "The Cat's Meow: How Cats Evolved from the Savanna to Your Sofa." But tomb paintings and sculptures show that by 3,500 years ago, domestic cats lived in Egypt. Or you can measure the length of its intestines – longer in domestic cats to digest vegetable-based food provided by or scavenged from humans.
