Following my own experience fighting pregnancy discrimination, I’ve come to think of employment discrimination as a black box. Workers who are denied promotions, passed over for opportunities, or selected for layoffs rarely know why. They see the outcome, but not the process. This makes it difficult to determine whether unlawful discrimination occurred and, if it did, to hold employers accountable under established federal and state antidiscrimination laws.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is one of the most powerful leaders in the world. Domestically popular and internationally influential, his government has long appeared almost unassailable. Recently, however, that aura of invincibility has begun to crack. Massive protests, led by the satirical Cockroach Janta Party, forced his education minister to resign.

Ask most people what their phone is costing them, and they’ll point to their attention or sleep. But research suggests the cost may also be physical.

Lauren Templeton built a company around creativity.

The dust has not yet settled on Salad and Go’s surprise bankruptcy and the abrupt closure of all of its locations, but a fellow Arizona-based restaurant brand is not wasting any time.

Major social media platforms are once again under fire for their flawed approach to content moderation after a disturbing livestream from Perez Hilton—in which the celebrity blogger appeared to be committing acts of self-harm—flooded into people’s news feeds.

Today the beauty conglomerate E.l.f. Beauty released its earnings, delivering growth of 36% in net sales, to $479.4 million, across its portfolio of brands.

Major leadership changes were announced at Google Wednesday.

Last week, protestors rallied outside the largest university in Mexico, chanting, “We demand honesty, not artificial intelligence.” The National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) had moved its highly competitive entrance exam online for the first time ever, complete with an AI proctor—and now it seems under that proctor’s not-so-watchful eye, tens of thousands of applicants are suspected to have cheated.

This summer, Americans are celebrating the country’s founders for their courage, vision, and democratic ideals. But as the nation continues recognizing its 250th anniversary, it’s worth remembering that democracy endured not only because of our founding documents, but because generations of citizens, businesses, nonprofits, and civic institutions built the connective tissue that made this great political experiment work.

Some of America’s largest retailers, including Walmart and Amazon, are recalling a popular winter product due to hundreds of injuries and the death of an 83-year-old woman in San Jose.

Zillow plans to lay off “just over 500 employees,” or about 7% of its workforce, as part of a company-wide restructuring. The Seattle-based online real estate company had 7,058 employees as of March 31.

People used to tell me that time moves faster as you get older. I didn’t always believe them until I had a family, a career, and endless decisions to make, including about my health and staying on top of it all when no day feels long enough.

Buying physical media used to be simple. Now it’s getting harder and harder. Digital-only games might seem more convenient, but they give customers far less control over what they actually own.

Signed into law last month by President Trump, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act aims to cut away some of the red tape currently driving the shortage of affordable homes in the U.S. In a new report, Realtor.com took a look at how some of those changes are poised to remake local housing policy around the country.

For publishers who make their money through advertising, it’s difficult to see bots as anything other than a threat. They crawl their content, chop it up into machine readable code, and then serve up the information as context in AI summaries, usually without leaving so much as a dime in the tip jar. With bot activity surging as human referral traffic plummets, it’s no wonder that many publisher sites block as many bots as possible.

Like many entrepreneurs, I’m wired to constantly operate at full throttle.

When CBS ended The Late Show With Stephen Colbert earlier this year, it also shuttered the program’s robust music offerings—a blow for artists whose television platform was already dwindling.

Performing on late-night has historically been a unique avenue for musicians hoping to access new audiences—think of a rising Chappell Roan on The Late Show or The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show. But when James Corden left CBS’s The Late Late Show in 2023, his program—and its coveted performance space—was never revived. NBC’s Late Night With Seth Meyers has cut back on live music, while ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! reduced performances to twice a week. As it stands, only NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon consistently books live performances.

Emerging artists still see incredible value in these performances—and are hopeful that nascent online programming will offer an alternative.
