Thoughts and prayers for the players who only kept full PGA Tour cards without guaranteed access to the signature events. And now the signature events will have $20 million purses (same as LIV) with $4 million to the winner (same as LIV). “How many golf fans actually know what the PIP on the PGA Tour is?” he wrote on Instagram, posting the results for all to see. “There’s 150-200 members of the PGA Tour and they just spent $100 million on 20 players.

Jack Dorsey says Block will no longer do performance reviews or performance-improvement plans. She told me she thought PIPs — performance improvement plans — were underused because companies don't necessarily want to do the legwork that often goes with them. Jack Dorsey's Block just announced that they're going to stop doing PIPs and just fire people who aren't up to snuff. So, having some ability to correct your things you're doing wrong — that's important. Block is also getting rid of annual performance reviews.

He also named Dhanji Prasanna, a longtime Block employee and its chief scientist, as the company's new CTO. Going forward, Block will rely on constant evaluations of workers to get past a perception that Block allows staff and managers to "'rest and vest' throughout the company," Dorsey wrote. "It's a lazy and often surprising approach that we can avoid with direct and consistent feedback," Dorsey said of PIPs. "We want to help everyone achieve excellence here at Block," he added. Excellence in service to our customers, excellence in our craft, excellence in our respective disciplines, and excellence to each other.

My First Trip to ‘Rubyfruit Jungle’
  + stars: | 2023-11-20 | by ( Trish Bendix | Scott Heller | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
The precocious and fearless protagonist of Rita Mae Brown’s 1973 novel “Rubyfruit Jungle” has served as a model of possibility for generations of young women, lesbians and outsiders of all kinds. Both of its time and ahead of it, “Rubyfruit Jungle” has inspired countless lives, works of art and Sapphic-themed spaces. Maybe just the first one toward whom I was evenly split between wanting and wanting to be — a category that only grew over time, and included heartthrobs of all genders. I read “Rubyfruit” over and over, starting around 11 or 12, still a couple of years out from my first kiss with a girl. I, too, wanted to hitch to New York where the other artists were, where the other queers lived.

Contains many spoilers for Season 1 of “Creamerie.”The New Zealand post-viral-apocalypse comedy “Creamerie” likes to begin an episode right where the previous one left off. “Creamerie” is in the science fiction subgenre of world-without-men shows; others include the new Netflix anime “Ooku: The Inner Chambers” and FX on Hulu’s “Y: The Last Man” from 2021. “Creamerie” was created by the actresses who play the leads — J.J. Fong, Perlina Lau and Ally Xue — along with the writer and director Roseanne Liang. The four have been collaborators for a decade, making Web series about relatably snarky young women in urban New Zealand. Fong, Lau and Xue play Jamie (determined, sorrowful, sexy), Pip (uptight, repressed, resourceful), and Alex (rebellious, profane, loyal), the proprietors of a dairy farm in rural New Zealand.
