▼ + stars: | 2024-11-12 | by ( Allison Morrow | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +5 min

Representatives for Trump’s transition team and the FTC didn’t respond to requests for comment. Wall Street, which has been on a tear since Trump’s decisive victory last week, appears to be ready to turn the page on the Khan era. Similarly, the FTC has gone after Big Tech, Big Pharma and even Big Mattress in the name of keeping competition robust. To them, Khan and her DOJ partner in trustbusting, Jonathan Kanter, represent a threat to the bottom line. Since last week’s election, both Kroger and Albertsons shares have risen sharply as investors anticipate the deal would face little resistance under Trump’s FTC.

☆ Gentle Parenting Bust: What Millennial Parents Are Getting Wrong
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-06 | by ( Kelli María Korducki | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +14 min

Seventeen years later, gentle parenting is now the default among my professional-class millennial peers. Teachers blame gentle parenting for bad behavior in classrooms, which some believe is accelerating an exodus from the profession. Ample research links an authoritative parenting style — such as gentle parenting — with the most favorable psychosocial outcomes in children. These are among the questions that gentle parents must contend with, often on the fly. When gentle parenting goes wrong, everyone takes note.

My family sometimes thinks we're spoiling our children, but that doesn't change how I parent. I’m a mom of three girls aged seven and under, and I feel confident in the way my husband and I parent.

☆ The winner of a prestigious Japanese literary award has confirmed AI helped write her book

CNN —After Japanese author Rie Kudan won one of the country’s most prestigious literary awards, she admitted she’d had help from an unusual source — ChatGPT. The author then confirmed at a press conference that around 5% of her book “The Tokyo Tower of Sympathy” — which was lauded by committee members as “practically flawless” — was word-for-word generated by AI. The novel centers around the dilemmas of an architect tasked with building a comfortable high-rise prison in Tokyo where law breakers are rehabilitated, and features AI as a theme. Kudan said that, in her own life, she would consult ChatGPT about problems she felt she couldn’t tell anyone. “It seems that the story that Rie Kudan’s award-winning work was written using generative AI is misunderstood… If you read it, you will see that the generative AI was mentioned in the work,” he wrote.

The world’s largest sand island is now officially known by its traditional name, K’gari, the government of the Australian state of Queensland announced Wednesday. The name change formally recognizes the connection of the indigenous Butchulla people to the UNESCO World Heritage site on Australia’s east coast. “In our creation stories, our stories handed down by generations, it has always been K’gari and always will be,” Gayle Minniecon, chairperson of Butchulla Aboriginal Corporation, said in a press release. It’s what we call home,” Joyce Bonner, Butchulla Aboriginal Corporation Language and Cultural coordinator, said in a statement ahead of the reinstatement. K’gari means “paradise” in the Butchulla language and is pronounced “GUR-rie” or “Gurri,” according to the Queensland government.

☆ Piaţa imobiliară începe anul 2021 cu creşterea preţurilor
▼ + stars: | 2021-07-07 | by ( ) capital.market.md time to read: +7 min

Anul trecut a fost pentru domeniul construcţiilor, la fel ca şi pentru multe altele, unul de criză, deşi mai puţin sensibilă, nu doar în sensul preţurilor, dar şi al vânzărilor. Potrivit statisticilor, numărul tranzacţiilor de vânzare-cumpărare a apartamentelor în 2020 a înregistrat o scădere cu 1,7 la sută. Declinul a fost determinat de reducerea tranzacţiilor în regiuni, capitala atingând o maximă istorică de 22.477 apartamente. Totuşi, în anul 2020, în mediul urban au fost date în exploatare 5895 locuinţe, în scădere cu 2095 locuinţe (sau cu 26,2%) faţă de anul 2019. Programul de stat „Prima Casă” a fost şi el un catalizator puternic pentru piaţa imobiliară.

☆ Tendinţe mai noi şi mai vechi pe piaţa de desfacere a merelor noastre
▼ + stars: | 2021-04-28 | by ( ) capital.market.md time to read: +7 min

Înainte de toate, înainte de a “cântări” roada anului 2020, trebuie să amintim că acest an a fost unul în care nu a plouat, seceta fiind destul de agresivă, influenţând desigur cantitatea de fructe. Evident, nu este corect să atribuim creşterea preţului doar golului pe care l-a creat seceta din anul trecut. Piciorul a fost pus pe frână în luna martie, iar cifrele nu fac decât să demonstreze acest fenomen. În ianuarie-februarie, din ţară au fost exportate aproximativ 28 mii tone de mere (în aceeaşi perioadă a anului trecut exportul acestor fructe a însumat 54 mii tone). Un alt factor care a influenţat exporturile noastre a fost creşterea preţului merelor pe piaţa rusă, ceea ce a influenţat imediat cererea.
