Sam Bankman-Fried broke his silence days after his crypto exchange FTX International imploded in spectacular fashion. Bankman-Fried attributed FTX's collapse to higher-than-expected leverage and a waterfall of withdrawals. I thought it was way lower," Bankman-Fried said in explaining how his estimates of FTX's leverage were off by so much. Bankman-Fried said FTX is spending the week "doing everything we can to raise liquidity." But I'm going to try," he vowed, adding that he is in talks with a number of players about letters of interest and term sheets.

☆ Apple's new App Store rules over 'boosted ads' provoke Facebook again

Apple recently updated its App Store Guidelines with changes that, yet again, impact Facebook's ad business. "For many years now, the App Store guidelines have been clear that the sale of digital goods and services within an app must use In-App Purchase," an Apple spokesman told CNBC. But most, like Twitter , already use Apple's in-app purchase mechanism that lists boosted posts for $9.99 on Apple's App Store. For Meta, it thinks Apple's recent clarification crosses a line in taking a piece of advertising revenue, not just app sales. Meta points to previous Apple executive statements, some made as part of the Epic Games trial over App Store rules, where it said it didn't take a cut of ads.

☆ Dilip Kumar, una dintre cele mai mari vedete ale epocii de aur a cinematografiei indiene, a murit

Alături de Dev Anand şi Raj Kapoor, Dilip Kumar a fost unul dintre cei trei monştri sacri ai epocii de aur a Bollywood-ului, cuprinsă între sfârşitul anilor 1940 până la începutul anilor 1960.Poreclit "regele tragediei" din cauza sobrietăţii sale naturale, Dilip Kumar a apărut în peste jumătate de secol în circa şaizeci de filme, jucând în unele dintre cele mai emblematice producţii indiene ale perioadei respective.Kumar şi-a ratat însă probabil ocazia de a avea o carieră internaţională, refuzând oferta lui David Lean de a-l pe juca Cherif Ali în "Lawrence of Arabia", lansat în 1962. În cele din urmă, Omar Sharif a acceptat rolul.Pe numele său real Mohammed Yusuf Khan, Dilip Kumar s-a născut pe 11 decembrie 1922 la Peshawar, un oraş situat azi în nordul Pakistanului care făcea parte atunci din India britanică.Tatăl său, un negustor de fructe, şi-a dus familia la Bombay în anii 1930.Tânărul a refuzat să preia afacerea familiei după ce a fost remarcat de actriţa Devika Rani care i-a permis să apară în 1944 în primul său film, "Jwar Bhata".Ea l-a convins să-şi schimbe numele pentru a intra în lumea cinematografiei fără ştirea tatălui său care nu a aprobat această carieră.Una dintre cele mai faimoase interpretări ale sale rămâne rolul din "Mughal-E-Azam", unul dintre cele mai mari succese ale cinematografiei indiene, lansat în 1960, care spune povestea legendară a unei iubiri imposibile dintre un prinţ mogul şi sclava sa.Spre deosebire de alţi actori de la Bollywood care au apărut în sute de filme, Dilip Kumar şi-a ales cu grijă proiectele cinematografice, ceea ce nu a făcut decât să-i consolideze aura de star într-o industrie cinematografică extrem de concurenţială.La sfârşitul anilor 1990, el s-a implicat mai mult în politică, acceptând să lucreze pentru reconcilierea dintre India şi Pakistan. Doi ani mai târziu, a fost ales parlamentar al Partidului Congresului, atunci aflat în opoziţie.
