"I would say the value Laela has provided has been significantly higher than the money anyone's provided″ Duolingo CEO Luis Von Ahn told CNBC at the time.

"I want them all released," Ways and Means Committee member Bill Pascrell told MSNBC ahead of Neal's group-wide meeting. José Luis Villegas/AP"Democrats' relentless pursuit of President Trump's tax returns is nothing more than a partisan attack against a political opponent that serves no legitimate or legislative purpose," Buchanan wrote in an email to Insider.

☆ I tried Netflix's new cheaper plan with ads to see what it's like — here's what is different
  + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Travis Clark | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
I made a separate account from my current one because the ad plan wouldn't have kicked in until after my next bill later this month. By contrast, Netflix's ad-based plan, called "Basic with Ads," costs $7 per month with 720p/HD viewing quality. On Thursday, four movies in the top 10 in the US were locked on the ad plan, including the No. It's not until I searched for specific titles, which pop up other related titles, that I could see more of what was locked (locked titles have a convenient lock symbol on them). Not everything on Netflix's ad plan is available.
