No matter one’s position on the Second Amendment, it’s hard for us to imagine surviving such a tragedy.

Hardware is emerging as a key AI growth area. For big tech companies with the money and talent to do so, developing in-house chips helps reduce dependence on outside designers such as Nvidia and Intel while also allowing firms to tailor their hardware specifically to their own AI models, boosting performance and saving on energy costs.

Now, I’m fortunate to say I have a handful of credit cards along with an “excellent” credit score — one that will help me finance an upcoming house purchase. Some parts of my credit journey, like landing a job at TPG and being able to learn from my credit expert colleagues, were just plain lucky, but other parts are pretty straightforward and can be replicated by anyone looking to improve their credit score. Here’s how…
Federal fishery managers voted Wednesday to cancel all commercial and recreational salmon fishing off the coast of California for the second year in a row, and only the fourth time in state history, because of dwindling stocks. The unanimous vote by the Pacific Fishery Management Council, the authority responsible for setting Pacific salmon seasons, is a blow to the state fishing industry that supports tens of thousands of jobs and is still reeling from last year’s shutdown. Salmon fishing was also closed in California during the 2008 and 2009 seasons. Like 2023, this year’s decision was made in order to protect California’s…
