For years, customers have griped about their portion sizes at the fast-food chain, and Chipotle has vigorously defended itself. "There have been no changes in our portion sizes, and we have reinforced proper portioning with our employees," Laurie Schalow, Chipotle's chief corporate affairs and food safety officer, told Business Insider. "Yes, you can have the same customization with a digital makeline, but you are more constrained in what you can do." technically the robot but i've seen the robot referenced broadly as a "digital makeline."

☆ I run a preschool and see how gentle parenting has made parents less engaged with their kids. It's time to ditch parenting scripts.

I now realize this mother was an early adopter of parenting scripts, something I had never heard of at the time, though they have now become ubiquitous. AdvertisementWords matter when talking to kidsThe spoken message behind parenting scripts is that parents can optimize how they speak to children, supporting their children's development and validating their feelings. The unspoken message behind parenting scripts is that much of parents' reflexive language toward their children is pernicious. Children need their parents to be congruent in their interactions, even if they might misspeak from time to time. Parents need to trust that, at the end of the day, their hearts are in the right place — so much so that they may even want to speak from it.

Montaque cofounded Group Black in 2021 with the goal of directing $500 million in advertising money to Black-owned media in its first 18 months. With the pledge, Group Black laid out a plan to steer money to Black media owners and acquire media companies. Bough, Group Black's chief strategy officer, was a former Mondelēz and PepsiCo marketer who presented the CNBC reality show "Cleveland Hustles." Various outlets reported that Group Black mounted bids for media companies including the Sports Illustrated publisher Arena Group, the Paramount-owned BET, Vice Media, and Vox Media. Seven former employees described Montaque as an energetic leader but said he was ultimately ineffective in executing Group Black's mission.

☆ The Secret Battle for the Future of the Murdoch Empire

Rupert Murdoch is locked in a secret legal battle against three of his children over the future of the family’s media empire, as he moves to preserve it as a conservative political force after his death, according to a sealed court document obtained by The New York Times. Mr. Murdoch, 93, set the drama in motion late last year, when he made a surprise move to change the terms of the Murdochs’ irrevocable family trust to ensure that his eldest son and chosen successor, Lachlan, would remain in charge of his vast collection of television networks and newspapers. The trust currently hands control of the family business to the four oldest children when Mr. Murdoch dies. Those three siblings — James, Elisabeth and Prudence — were caught completely off-guard by their father’s effort to rewrite what was supposed to be an inviolable trust and have united to stop him. Remarkably, the ensuing battle has been playing out entirely out of public view.

The King’s two Bentleys will also be modified within the next year to run on biofuel, according to Britain’s PA Media. The Royal Household aims to transition to an “almost fully electric” fleet of vehicles eventually, the accounts said, without providing a target date. Whether biofuels used for vehicles reduce carbon emissions is contentious and depends on many factors, including their source.

☆ The Triumphant Comeback of the Kamala Harris Meme
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-23 | by ( Amanda Hess | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Kamala Harris is a highly memeable presidential candidate. Videos of Harris dancing at campaign events were labeled “cringe.” The stickiest anti-Kamala meme of the 2020 election — that the former prosecutor Harris “is a cop” — united leftists, Black Twitter and Republican trolls in an internet-wide project of framing Harris as either a reactionary or a hypocrite. Since President Biden bowed out of the race and threw his support to Harris, the familiar old Kamala memes have risen again. Her dance moves have been set to Charli XCX songs and filtered through Charli’s lime-green “Brat”-era branding, bathing Harris in her chill hot-mess pop star glow. Even “Kamala Harris is a cop” has been reclaimed, with an exaggerated wink, by supporters eager to fashion it into a winning general-election pitch.
