When I meet people, they usually don't know that my dad is Steve Ballmer. I have some friends for whom it took a really long time — like many months — before they realized the link. There was this guy I used to be friends with who went out of his way to talk to me. My comedy friends are also awesome, and my newest group of friends, my girlfriend's friends, are really cool. Since I'm not a big spender, I don't think anybody eyed me and thought, "I can probably get a ton of money out of him."

Street safety advocates say fire officials' focus on speed is making roads more dangerous. Many of the city's residents want to take action to make their streets safer. In March, LA voted overwhelmingly for a street safety policy that will finally enforce a nearly decade-old mobility plan to make the city's streets safer for non-drivers. Fire departments across the country have for decades opposed safer street design. He said fire departments can be convinced to support safer street design if they're heavily engaged by planners.

That's because most of the past several weeks have shown that first-time claims for unemployment benefits haven't fluctuated at all — as in zero. "Initial claims for unemployment insurance are state programs, with 50 state rules, hundreds of offices, and 50 websites to file. Weather, seasonality, holidays, and economic vibrations drive the number of people filing claims from week to week," he added. Indeed, a Labor Department spokesperson noted that while the string of 212,000 prints on the jobless claims data is "uncommon," it would not be considered anomalous. The Labor Department official also pointed out that new seasonal factors to the claims data were announced a month ago.

Read preview"You look like Clara Bow in this light" is how Taylor Swift begins the closing track of the standard edition of her latest album, "The Tortured Poets Department," which was released on Friday. But beyond what she's been told by others, by naming the song "Clara Bow," Swift appears to be signaling an affinity with the original "It" girl whose career reached its apex almost a century ago. Ultimately, for Sisneros and Bell, Swift's immortalization of their great-grandmother in "Clara Bow" is a gift they can hand down to future generations. A sex symbol is a heavy load to carry when one is tired, hurt, and bewildered," Bow is quoted as saying in Stenn's biography, "Clara Bow: Runnin' Wild."

But there's good news: You can get noticed without attending every social event, says Stanford University lecturer and communication expert Matt Abrahams. The key is intentionally engaging specific people around you — your "audience," as Abrahams calls them. "The biggest mistake people make in their communication is they don't focus on the needs of the audience," Abrahams tells CNBC Make It. You have three basic methods at your disposal for figuring out what's important to your audience, he notes: reconnaissance, reflection and research. "That's the only way to make [your work] relevant," says Abrahams.

US President Joe Biden gestures after speaking about student loan debt relief at Madison Area Technical College in Madison, Wisconsin, April 8, 2024. Andrew Caballero-Reynolds | AFP | Getty ImagesThe Biden administration has published its new student loan forgiveness proposal, putting it on the path to start clearing debt for millions of borrowers this fall. Outstanding federal education debt in the U.S. stands at around $1.6 trillion, and burdens Americans more than credit card or auto debt. Here's what to know about Biden's new relief plan. More than 25 million federal student borrowers owe more than they originally borrowed, according to the Biden administration.

"We realized we couldn't afford the mortgage and the car payments and everything," Stonestreet told me. Americans work more, vacation less, spend more on healthcare, and die sooner than people in other high-income economies. These factors likely explain why some Americans are moving to countries that aren't generally considered low-cost-of-living locales. She said that living abroad afforded her a degree of flexibility and spontaneity that would be out of reach back home. From their temporary perch in Tirana, Albania, the couple told me via WhatsApp that their only regret about moving abroad was not doing it sooner.

In a 2005 interview, Mark Zuckerberg said he came up with the idea while drunk. But when a young Mark Zuckerberg over-imbibed, he invented the "poke," the Facebook feature that is both the most creative thing Facebook has done — and one of the creepiest. The poke was one of the earliest features of Facebook, which Zuckerberg launched in college in 2004 as The Facebook. Here's how he describes the poke feature:AdvertisementThere's this feature called poking where you just go to someone's profile and you can poke the person. It also made it easier to find the page where all your pokes live (try searching "pokes" on Facebook).

Office crushes, in all their mercurial glory and pain, continue to shape our working lives in deeply meaningful ways. But through all these changing norms, workplace crushes remain remarkably common. Jim, after all, doesn't even ask Pam on a date until the season-three finale of "The Office." That most workplace crushes never lead to consummated relationships doesn't make them any less powerful.

It's important to choose your words carefully and use assertive language, say authors and communication experts Kathy and Ross Petras. "The key is to be assertive without being overly aggressive," the Petrases wrote for CNBC Make It last year. No, if you have something important to say, then say it." If you're nervous or insecure during a meeting or conversation, changing a few words won't change the way you feel. 'I don't know'"I don't know" is a common filler phrase, or crutch word, to fill space until people can complete their thoughts.

Many professionals believe that they're highly attentive, but 70% of them actually exhibit poor listening habits in the workplace, according to a 2020 University of Southern California report. So you've got to be clever if you want to grasp someone's attention, says Matt Abrahams, a communication consultant and organizational behavior lecturer at Stanford University. Polite requests for his students' attention fell on deaf ears, drowned out by their "chit-chatting," he tells CNBC Make It. It only takes four seconds for silence to become awkward, according to a Dutch psychology study published in 2011. "It's very hard to stand in silence, but that can be very helpful," he adds.
