Some Costco locations are asking Instacart workers to wait outside of their parking lots. "I'm sure there are some people who are doing dumb stuff in parking lots," one commenter on the Reddit post said. Instacart does not require shoppers to wait in a store's parking lot to be eligible for an order. "Shoppers who are shopping an active batch may utilize the Costco parking lot," Instacart said. "Access to batches extends beyond each Costco parking lot," the company said.

A former fire commissioner is accused of approaching homeless people and spraying them with bear mace. Don Carmignani initially said he was attacked by a homeless man, Garrett Doty, with a lead pipe.

Nevertheless, that looks to be the US intelligence community's approach to handling classified information. The tangled views of Jack Teixeira, who was indicted Friday in connection with leaking hundreds of classified documents to a private Discord server, are still coming into focus. There are classified phone systems, email systems, fiber optic cables, and a Wikipedia clone. Aside from the question of how many people have access to secrets, it's also worth considering how many of those supposed secrets belong on classified systems at all. Who was tracking the whereabouts of the volume of secret files he appears to have sent to the printer?

Insider's latest work-advice column is about how to handle the drama seekers in your office. I often feel myself drawn into it, and then I'm less productive and I have to work harder to make up for lost time. After all, we spend most of our waking hours at work, going to and from work, and thinking about work. You need to make a concerted effort to preserve your well-being, Lyons said. And for my fellow drama kings and queens, maybe it's time we hang up our crowns — at least some of the time.

  + stars: | 2022-11-17 | by ( Jenni Reid | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Carson Block, founder of short selling investment firm Muddy Waters, thinks the collapse of cryptocurrency exchange FTX under Sam Bankman-Fried is a "great example of greed and FOMO." Block told CNBC's "The Exchange" he had seen the business trajectory of the former billionaire and thought there was "obviously something wrong." Block is a crypto sceptic who described the recent surge into the industry as a bubble based on a "suspension of disbelief." His comments come amid a war of words in the crypto sphere as it grapples with the recent volatility. At an event hosted by CNBC on Thursday, Changpeng Zhao, founder of cryptocurrency exchange Binance, said he was "shocked" that Bankman-Fried "lied to everybody," and described his actions as "fraud."
☆ BOJ's dovish deputy Amamiya top candidate as next head: Reuters poll
  + stars: | 2022-09-21 | by ( Leika Kihara | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min

Like Amamiya, Nakaso is considered a safe pair of hands with his expertise on central bank affairs. The BOJ's dovish stance has made it an outlier among a global wave of central banks tightening monetary policy to combat surging inflation. "While Kuroda is at the helm, the BOJ's ultra-loose monetary policy won't change," said Takeshi Minami, chief economist at Norinchukin Research Institute. "But under a new leadership, the bank could reassess its view on the inflation outlook and thinking on monetary policy."
