It should put a damper on just how much we should expect the next president to accomplish, especially if the divide is between the House and the White House. There’s a big difference in just how divided government becomes, depending on whether the House and the White House are controlled by the same party or different parties. Two words send chills down the spine of any presidents who find the “other” party in control of the House: subpoena power. Both Trump and Joe Biden saw the second halves of their terms (after they lost control of the House) essentially paralyzed by an oppositional House. First, because California House races will determine overall House control, it could take as much as two or three weeks before we know the makeup of Congress in 2025 for sure.

Spotify's HR chief told Raconteur that the company will maintain its work-from-anywhere policy. AdvertisementAmazon might be ordering employees back to the office 5 days a week, but don't expect Spotify to follow suit. Spotify's latest reaffirmation of its WFA policy bucks the current trend of companies pushing to get employees in the office more days a week. Many executives and leaders have attributed their RTO mandates to increased productivity and collaboration when employees work together in the office. "Over time, this drawback could dramatically undermine the character and culture you want to promote in your company," Dimon added.

There are few things as stressful — and consequential to your future earnings — as negotiating the salary of a new job. Even fewer people, then, may think about negotiating aspects of a compensation package beyond the base salary on offer. Here are the best things to negotiate in a job offer, beyond salary, for an easier "yes" from HR. "If you can negotiate a higher title now, then when you leave, it's worth more on the job market — your resume is worth more," she says.

☆ Lasers could take broadband where fiber optics can’t
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-09 | by ( Jacopo Prisco | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

One solution could come from a technology called “free-space optics” (FSO), which uses lasers to transfer data through the air. Fog and rain, but even simple air turbulence, are enough to disrupt the signal, which also requires a stable, direct line of sight between transmitter and receiver. So, despite the advantage of not requiring any licensing or regulation, unlike radio signals such as 5G, FSO broadband has yet to materialize as a commercial reality. Now, Virginia-based company Attochron says it’s ready to launch its own version of it — after more than 20 years of development. Enabling, not replacingAccording to Chaffee, the advantages of bridging the last mile with lasers are many, starting with the fact that it’s comparatively cheaper than laying fiber optics cables.
