Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg will very likely end up the ultimate winner in the most recent push to force a sale or ban of Chinese-owned TikTok. The House passed a TikTok "ban" or forced sale as part of a bill on military aid for Ukraine and Israel. A year ago, BI's Grace Kay wrote that TikTok legislation would be like "an early Christmas present" for Zuckerberg.

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."

But he had a lot of downtime — and he's "not good with having a lot of downtime," the 37-year-old told Business Insider. Roughly three months later, he was secretly working two full-time remote jobs and earning about $225,000 a year in combined income. Luke wasn't sure if his job juggling had been exposed or if the company just changed its mind — he never found out. However, after weighing the challenges the hybrid policy would present, in addition to the other downsides of job juggling, Luke ultimately decided that "the juice wasn't worth the squeeze."

Taylor Swift released "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" on Friday. AdvertisementTaylor Swift's album release days should be days of celebration. "In the past 3 hours she has released more songs than Lorde has in the past decade," one listener observed on X.

Of course, Swift is far from the only artist who's released a bloated project, and these days, the streaming era is largely to blame.

There is one skill all young people need to thrive in the workplace — today and in the future — and it's been around for thousands of years. The type of storytelling may not matter, because the platforms people use to communicate can rapidly change. IT business consultancy Gartner reportedly bought L2 Inc. for more than $130 million in 2017, according to regulatory filings. The importance of storytelling is particularly why young people shouldn't rely solely on generative artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT — not now, not ever, said Galloway. Management experts agree — understanding AI is important, but it isn't the sole skill needed to succeed at work.

Earlier this year, YouTuber Marques Brownlee said the Fisker Ocean was the "worst car I've ever reviewed."

I reported the issue to Fisker right away and I struggled to get them to come out and service it. FiskerAt first, Fisker sent out a roadside assistance guy to jump the car and the car wouldn't jump. Regarding the owner's seat-sensor issue, the Fisker spokesperson said the seat sensor was a "routine fix for some early vehicles."

CNBC's Jim Cramer gave investors his take on the valuation of Astera Labs , a company that went public last week and sells data center connectivity chips to cloud and artificial intelligence outfits. To Cramer, the stock debuted too hot and is more expensive than it should be at this point. "While Astera Labs has a good story — and it is good, I think it'd be worth owning at some price — I think it's way too expensive at this price," he said. Last week, Wall Street was buzzing about Reddit 's long-awaited initial public offering, but Cramer found Astera Labs to be intriguing. However, Cramer said he felt positive about some aspects of the business, saying if Astera Labs can keep putting up sales growth, it's headed in the right direction.

The Bird sandwich from Nona features roasted turkey, brie cheese, bacon, and guacamole. Anneta Konstantinides/Business InsiderWe first tried The Bird, a $16 sandwich with roasted turkey, mayonnaise, brie, bacon, guacamole, pickled red onions, and escarole, all on a toasted roll.

The BOJ will now look to utilize its short-term interest rate as its primary policy tool. It will employ an interest rate of 0.1% to current account balances held by financial institutions at the central bank from March 21, while encouraging the uncollateralized overnight call rate (another interest rate used as a policy lever by the bank) to remain at around 0 to 0.1% — effectively raising interest rates from -0.1% previously. It would resort to "nimble responses" in the form of increased Japan government bond purchases and fixed-rate purchases of JGBs, among other things, if there is a rapid rise in long-term interest rates. Japanese investors have looked elsewhere for better returns given years of artificially depressed interest rates in their home market. The Fed is due to announce its own interest rate decision on Wednesday.
